    I was trying to make up a username and discovered that 'confabulate' means 'to make up something'.

    Mine comes from when one day me and Frada were at the bus station. I was riffing on the notion of a large conglomerate controlling everything, and sending operatives after dissidents and those who twig what's going on. I blurted out mid-riff: "Who are you? Did Tyranax send you??!?" And thus, Tyranax, an amalgamation of the words tyranny and ax, was born. My notion was unoriginal, I know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Super-Rush


    Mine comes from my love of Superman and my surname and the fact that i think i am a super person..
