I was sick of coming up with names that actually meant something and wanted something I could use forever that would never be taken. So I made something up randomly.

Modus Moriendi (method of dying) is one of a handful of handles I've used since around the late nineties. My forum name (friend of the human race) is another "ancient" one, mostly used for DnD/RPGs.

My name is Meryl and it's supposed to be sort of a play on "hydralisk" from Starcraft hahaha

It started as a pet name a guy I dated had for me.

I am the worst at coming up with names in video games, so I went super uncreative for my Origin ID and used my school ID.

There's a scene in the Simpsons where Bart has obtained a fake ID, rented a car, driven to the World's Fair in knoxville, TN along with Martin and Nelson. After arriving, they quickly run out of money, having been disappointed in the 50+year old exhibits (including the iconic Sunsphere which had been converted into a wig repository) and are stranded. In frustration, Nelson throws a rock at the Sunsphere, knocking it over onto their rental car. As the scene fades to commercial, the 3 of them are staring forlornly at the mess, totally bummed when the ever-so-optimistic bully Nelson declares "Well, at least I knocked over the Sunsphere"! That line always slayed me, glass half full in a totally useless way.

Such a long story for such a small payoff...

Ha!  We took several pictures of it when in Knoxville.  I told my wife I was going to photoshop our car to be right under it (since in reality, you can't park within a couple hundred feet of it's base), and caption it "remember, we're parked under the sunsphere."

I can never come up with a good nickname, so I just nicknamed all my accounts after my cat, sabien.

Origin wouldn't let me use my awesome BSN name, so I put down the first random sound that came to mind.

Redwinghata comes from the time when the Dallas Stars and Redwings had a fierce rivalry going, now I don't hate em so much, but the name's kinda stuck.

My psnid is Sigillite from the Warhammer 40000 novels/games. He's the Emperor's right hand man....Malcador the Sigillite.

"bunnylover"  is 2 references.

1.  The Volkswagen Rabbit.  At one point in my life, I owned 5 VWs and that includes 3 different black Mk3 Jettas.  
2.  A friend that had a physical relationship with another friend once said that the male friend would kind of hop during intercourse in order to umm. . . make the sexual motions.  She said that he "<expletived>ed like a bunny".  I laughed about bunny<expletive>er for a while and decided that I would clean it up for general use.
3.  Also, I love bunnies.

That is why there's a deep-voiced, 7ft tall dude behind the "bunnylover" facade.  People never expect a bunnylover to be good at video games and that's the way I like it.

I use always "sir" before my nicknames, because of the movie A Clockwork Orange; I loved how Alex called almost everyone "sir".
In fact my most used nickname is "Siralextraffo", where "traffo" reminds my surname.

The nickname I would like to use here and in game is PestoMan, because I'm from Genoa, Pesto birthplace and because a ME3-multi-friend of mine created for a joke the PestoMan character, saying I was as assumptive as Tony Stark.

Unfortunately changing nick on BSN is too complicated.

I used to go by Dragonfly as a teen. Then came my years as Apex (which was too short for EA) and ProfessorW based on one of the main characters in Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita. But I am not as smart or diabolical as Prof.Woland. So I changed to TowerofPower for reasons undisclosed. That was not me, so: my current name is.... ummm.... my name.
