    People don’t like being proven wrong, and often try to dismiss it with some variation of “Im not gonna sit here and be told the whatfer by some random idiot”

    Like, excuse me sir, you are the random idiot, because you were the one that was wrong.

    So when it came to registering on Lemmy, that popped up in my head and bobs your uncle.

    Real nice honeypot too, every time someones wrong and backs themselves into a corner instead of admitting they are wrong, they inevitably give some variation of “living up to your user name, huh”, which just continues to prove that the actual idiot is the one lashing out like that.

    I used to think carefully about my username, but I want this to be a throwaway… eventually.

    I started naming things after albums I like, since I already did it for my lichess account, which has a chess pun.

    I have something similar for my self promotion alt

    From Jules Verne’s posthumously published work, “Paris in the 20th Century”

    “Ah!’ said Michel, tempted, ‘you have modern poems?’ 'Of course. For instance, Martillac’s ‘Electric Harmonies,’ which won a prize last year from the Academic of Sciences, and Monsieur de Pulfasse’s ‘Meditations on Oxygen;’ and we have the ‘Poetic Parallelogram,’ and even the 'Decarbonated Odes. . ’

    As a scientist with a deep love of the humanities, I found Verne’s view that science would ruin literature and poesy quite humorous. Especially since in reality it has just neglected it.
