No problem simstar, but still not quite sure what you mean.
Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?

Sorry! I meant to say "got" but the T key on this computer doesn't always work. I'll change it.

I see. So, where we got our avatar? Not really important where it came from — i.e. the avatar site/source, but like I said, if you just want to say what your avatar is, that's fine.

When we first got connected to the internet my twins were only about 18 months old and being a mother of twins pretty much defined who I was back then. So it seemed natural to use Twinmum. I can't always get just Twinmum, so I have used Oz_Twinmum, Twinmum_Too and a few variations. Of course now I am a bit more than just the mother of twins, I'm a mother of 4, a grand mother, a bit of a Stephen King expert, a miniaturist and other things, but the name Twinmum just sticks.

Mine's a golden eagle. It's my favorite bird.  :) I plan on changing it every month to a different animal for fun. I think, for September, I'd like to do a african elephant.

That in the guidelines for the thread?

Hey, HappyTime, is your icon from that series 'Gravitation'? It looks like the stuffed bunny they use in the anime.

Mine is pretty self-explanatory. I'm a girl and my favorite flower is the lily, I go for the yellow ones as that's my favorite colour.
On the official Sims 3 site I'm lilygirlmay05 which is the same except I added on my birthday - May 5th.

I'm also a mayflower! May 1st. I feel lucky to have gotten May Day as my birthday. Except that there is usually always a tornado on May 1st where I live...

My name: I remember the first time I ever tried sushi (steamed, not raw) and I loved it. When I told my best friend about it she was so shocked and "grossed out" by it that she started calling me sushi all the time. She thought I had gone off the deep end, and I thought it was funny so I kept the name.

TollingBells,

It looks like the stuffed bunny they use in the anime.

Yep, that's "Kumagoro!"  :)

I bought one along with the DVD set I got of Gravitation off Amazon a few years ago, but my 3-year old niece kept helping him escape my house, so I just let her keep him!

And here I've always thought you were making a reference to the use of llamas everywhere in the Sims series (I love it how they always turn up here and there! ;D) and still manages to pull off a rhyme. :)

Ah, I've always wondered about why the Sims is so obsessed with llamas and even has a completely useless cheat for llamas! I decided to Google it and spent the majority of my day searching for an answer. But all I got was that it was a simple Sims inside joke and had no meaning or purpose. I was so disappointed...

I personally think garden gnomes would make a better mascot. But GnomeMama would rhyme with YoMama, and no good could come from that.

Well, I put this in the introduce yourself thread but since this one is all about names...I'll put it again :)

My maiden name is Jack and one day, I believe it was my birthday, a lot of my friends were over and my mom said "I should have named you apple." All my friends got a kick out of this so my new nick-name became Apple Jack. I made Applejackkxo my screenname then (because I had to be cool and catchy *rolls eyes*) and it has just stuck ever since. Even though I'm married now....I still think it's cute so I use it :)

For my avatar...nothing special....just a peace sign :) lol
