    Smile How'd You Get Your Username?

    I was just thinking about this the other day and lo & behold, there are a couple of ancient threads on it. But they're years old and I didn't recognize many of the members, so I'm making a new one for 2018.

    How'd you get your username? Some are rather straightforward (ahem...Deborah), other's are a mess of letters and #s (looking at you, c0r3yr0s3). Just curious for your stories!

    I'll kick it off: hilabeans is a riff on the American colloquialism for something being trivial ("that's not worth a hill of beans"), and my name - Hilary.

    Not terribly original, but my cleverness isn't worth a hill of beans.
