Sauet, d00dz and d00d3tt3z. I am teh Anon (Fig.1). Lord of all you see before you. To help you understand what teh Anon is, you must first ask the question, what is an "Anon?" (Not to be confused with an Atom [Fig.2], or an Arron [Fig.3]) "Anon" is derived from the english word "Anonymous." Here to help us with the full definition of Anonymous is our good friends Merriam and Webster.

from a- + onyma name —more at NAME
Date: 1631

(the gray anonymous streets —William Styron)

So why does this name come into play as an alias for yours truely? I shall explain. Many eons ago when the world was young and Pokémon ruled the earth, a boy went to a website called Pokemasters.com. It was a very highly respected Pokémon information fansite, and it included a miraculous program called the Groupboard. This program is similar to Microsoft Paint, a primitive graphic-art system. However, it also included a small "chat-box" in which the users may engage in conversation as well as doodle on the drawing board above.

When a user had first gotten the Groupboard up and running, they could enter a nickname for others to address you by. It will always first be made "Anon_xx" (xx representing a randomly selected number), but could later be changed to something more fitting. The boy in our story was too lazy to come up with a good name, so he deleted the "_xx" from the name and became the Anon we all know and love today. One day, a catastrophe occured. Pokémon was becoming less popular, and Pokemasters.com was running out of money. Hence, the website was shut down.

Years later, the boy formerly known as "Anon" was searching for pictures of Invader Zim to use as a drawing referance. When he came across a picture of a rather unique-looking powerpuff girl. This picture linked him to Rowdyruff.net... and the rest is history.

Yeah, I know. It's pretty dumb. But I have one word for you: STFU

Back to the SVs. :-P
