What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.
It began with a roommate who owned the game Monster Rancher. I gave my name to it as Klang (generally followed with an appelation like "the Destructorator" or something). After a while, it became the name that I'd use on forms that I didn't feel like giving my real name to (like, web registrations and grocery store cards).
Due to either fuck ups on my side or on MetaFilter's, the first three user names that I tried were all taken or got screwed up along the way to paypal.
Hence "Klang Klangston," who still receives mail at my home. Angry mail, for angry Klang Klangston!
