Without using pronouns (me, he, she, it, etc) or articles (a, an, the), how did you come up with your user name? (lemmy.world)

Essentially, I want us to sound like cavemen.

I'll start:

HomesliceAbe was playing Mario kart and HomesliceAbe's dad couldn't think of name of one of courses (HomesliceAbe thinks name was "Moonview Highway?). HomesliceAbe's dad called course "Homeslice Highway" and HomesliceAbe thought new name was hilarious. Also, HomesliceAbe is big fan of Abraham Lincoln.

No. No good. Rednax count 14 violations of prompt. Rednax will improve story now:

Thelsim like sound of name of Thelsim, so Thelsim approves of question :) Thelsim is unique enough name, if not-Thelsim sees Thelsim somewhere else, there’s good chance Thelsim is Thelsim. Thelsim thought Thelsim up on spot and kind of identifies with Thelsim now. Thelsim’s vague and genderless enough to apply to anyone and can still be remembered as normal name. Thelsim's become online identity of Thelsim. Caveman enough for not-Thelsim? :)

Rednax is correct, Thelsim is deeply ashamed. Thanks Rednax!
