[EnjoyingInsanity 17]

My name is EnjoyingInsanity. It comes from an old joke. A doctor was interviewing a patient and asked if any of their family members suffered from insanity. The patient answered "no they all seem to enjoy it".

When other kids had imaginary friends, I had a very real constellation: orion. Orionova literally means 'Orion's Daughter', and I use it everywhere.

My grand-nephews middle name is Orion....Malachi Orion. My nephew, who is a writer, thought it would be cool to mix biblical history with astrology. (He obviously never saw the movie, "Children of the Corn")

Everyone in my family calls me Mama, but since I'm a big girl, I decided on Big Mama, no affiliation with the character in the movie lol!

Scuba diving used to be my favorite sport....before I got too fat to do it. It will be again soon I hope!

[Rogofulm 2,440]

What a fun thread! Okay, the easy part is that my first name is Roger, or "Rog". The "ofUlm" part is from a Monty Python character named Johann Gambolputty, whose full name is: Johann Gambolputty-de-von-Ausfern-schplenden-schlitter-crass-cren-bon-fried-digger-dangle-dungle-burstein-von-knacker-thrasher-apple-banger-horowitz-ticolensic-grander-knotty-spelltinkle-grandlich-grumblemeyer-spelter-wasser-kurstlich-himble-eisen-bahnwagen-guten-abend-bitte-ein-nürnburger-bratwürstel-gespurten-mitz-weimache-luber-hundsfut-gumberaber-schönendanker-kalbsfleisch-mittleraucher-von-Hautkopft of Ulm. (Try saying it out loud!)

[LisaLouBop 181]

My nickname is LisaLou, it was already taken, so I just added a Bop on the end.

[byebyedarkpassenger 203]

On the TV show Dexter, the main character refers to the evil part of himself as his 'dark passenger'. I'm mentally separating the me who wants to be healthy from the dark passenger, that excessively large stomach of mine that has wrapped a fat suit around me. So bye bye, dark passenger.

[no onions 258]

no onions: because I hate them (they pollute so many dishes) and I am not super creative.

I'm the person who will order without onions whether it indicates it or not.

I'm the person who will also say, "I did order that with no onions, right?"

I'm the person that sends salads, sandwiches back if I find and or detect the taste of onion, with the instruction of "make it brand new, please."

*Also no: chives, scallions, green onion, etc.

*Servers probably love me.

*Fun fact: I can say no onions in 5 languages. I traveled some in a previous job.

Result of biting into raw onion accidentally? Immediate gagging/heaves.

I've mellowed somewhat as I've gotten older.
