Maybe this isn't the right place to ask, but what's the story behind your user name? Not sure why, but for some reason I have always wondered. It's ok if it's secret.

Stay a while and listen! The true narrative behind these letters here is quite an ordeal. It all started back in a period of conflict... well, not much of a conflict, but a metaphorical one of sorts, a war of values where concepts battled for existence, and where a particular kind of yellow lifeform seemed to dominate the battlefield with superior technology. There were whispers of its slippery influence, a pervasive feeling of something becoming too soft, too yielding, threatening to turn everything into a homogeneous, squishy mess. Then, in a flash of pure, unadulterated resistance - a defiant stand against the overwhelming golden horde - it just clicked into place, resulting in a clear stance against the pervasive sweetness which seeks to engulf all of us. It's less a story you can actually retell and more a feeling, a deep resonance with the very fabric of the universe, a moment of such perfect anti-ripeness you just know when you're in the presence of such profound joy. So, yeah, that's the whole, expansive, utterly concise history of it. Pretty much. I think.

Aha, as I thought then, thanks :) (As a young kid I was afraid of a fictional character called Banarne, so I think I can relate to this feeling.)
