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.

Long time lurker before joining MeFi - love it.

Honey Barbara has been my nickname since my class read Peter Carey's novel Bliss in 1987. Honey Barbara is an ex-prostitute with a zen attitude and my favourite character in any of Peter Carey's novels.

I also love honey.
