What's the story behind your username?

[thetonestarr]

My two Internet aliases originate as follows:

thetonestarr - A girl I had a crush on/was a close friend of mine for a long time always called me "Tonester" (name's Tony). Anyways, I decided sometime in 2003 or 2004 to come up with a new username, thought something based on "Tonester" would work well, and so after some tweaking around, came up with this.

Kojiiriin - Back in 2001, I played GraalOnline (then known as Graal2001). Wanted to come up with a Japanese-sounding (to a weaboo, at the time) unique name, this is what came of that. I don't know how I'd spell it in Japanese, but I can spell it in Korean! 코찌이리인. Looks more like a loan-word, though, to be honest.
