The "space" part is a reference to one of my favorite animes, Cowboy Bebop. (The main characters are futuristic bounty hunters known as space cowboys). The "apple" part is simply because I've always been obsessed with all things Apple. And the "seed" part was an accident - autocorrect attached it because I often use it as a password and I didn't notice until my username had been set. Guess no one will have a hard time hacking into my accounts now...

The name Niniel is from The Silmarillion.

I first chose the name when I joined a Lord of The Rings forum about 10 years ago, I have mostly stuck with it ever since.

have posted in one of these a while ago but people join often enough and is interesting to see new and colourful pseudonyms Smile
fudo initially came to me as just my surname in romaji but thanks to the often bizarre ambiguity of language Fudo is also Fudo Myoo literally "the immovable king of wisdom/wisdom king" and means quite a few other things too...
So now I tend to assume the Avatar of Fudo and vice versa, so to speak.

I am an aspie and an otaku hence the name AspieOtaku. In case folks do not know what an Otaku is Otaku is Japanese for nerd. In the west it is Anime nerd. And here is a place where fellow Otaku like myself enjoy attending.

It kind of makes me wonder how many other Otakus are Aspies as well. And the NTs that are Otaku are cool to hang with. Smile Most of my NT friends are Otaku as well.

A "piroflip" is an aerobatic jig performed with a radio controlled helicopter.

Think of a robotic dog, techno dancing in front of you.

Signed up quickly, so couldn't be bothered trying to come up with a clever or interesting name. So I opted for my own first name, which was taken so added an extra "n". How clever of me! Laughing

Thanks hyper Smile think you might've said that last time, though my memory gets confused if I've done something more than once.. Kinda
Also I posted about Fudo ages ago in the "quite interesting" thread, not that big but it's bigger than wiki's offering.

Still looking at me that way too Wink hehe your eyes always draw me in, in the loveliest way of course..
ahem anyways...
