About

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's a funny mental image, which I enjoy inordinately. A lobster with specially-knit mittens from grandma. (Or, better, just one mitten. Maybe he lost the other one. Naughty lobster.)
