Utahraptor is my favorite dinosaur, and I add the 9000 out of habit because it's plain "utahraptor" is usually taken lol

I have learned something new! So having looked up utahraptor, it appears that they were the inspiration for the velociraptors in Jurrasic Park. I knew the velociraptors were much smaller than they were portrayed, but didn't realise there was a raptor that was at least in the right ballpark size wise.

Great choice of name 👍

Haha, thank you! It always makes me happy when people learn about Utahraptor! I'm assuming your username is related to the amount of spiders you keep?

Exactly that! ha ha. Circa 300 without counting sacs/slings from breeding.

It's what the neighbours called my house to keep the kids away I guess 😂😂😂

My name is Bex! Pretty simple story- when I was in middle school, my science teacher started calling me Bex as a nickname. I started using it again in college, and when I started transitioning back in 2022, I decided to use it full time with my friends and at work.

The double x is because the single x isn't available on most websites, but for some reason "Bexx" is! I kind of like it like that.

I was considering "The Bug Authority" as a username because that's what my family calls me- if anyone finds a bug and they don't know what it is, they text me. But I thought that might make me come across as someone with experience keeping inverts, instead of a complete newbie to the hobby.

My username "Omgkevplayz" is simply just my normal username that i came up with I use for a lot of websites and I use for almost all of my gamer usernames for video games. It's like my main username so I decide to use it for this as well :)

I don’t know if my username is exactly an exciting story, but it’s the username I use most on the net. I am a big fan of Star Wars and in The Empire Strikes Back, Princess Leah calls Han Solo that on Hoth… well, calls him a whole string of names, but most websites won’t allow that many letters.

Fideo (fee-day-oh) is one of my favorite comfort foods! A more exciting one I also go by on the internet, Glooth, is from one of those pokemon mash-up generators that combine two pokemon. Glooth is the name of gloom's and meowth's result. Linky for your viewing pleasure -> https://pokemon.alexonsager.net/44/52

No surprises. My name is Kate but the Wolfie bit has been around since Myspace. Wolfie was my Siamese cat. He was born with a club foot, an undescended testicle, and a stump for a tail. He was one of the true lights of my life and helped raise my kids. And no cat I’ve ever had could have a hissy fit at the mere sniff of the vets like him. 🥹❤‍🩹😼
