My username is also taken from my own name, though I wish it was as catchy as yours. My real name is Steven (though I prefer Steve or Ste) and when my now-nearly-23-year-old nephew was a little'un, he used to pronounce it as 'Steebum', or more formally 'Uggle Steebum'. Years later and his little sister arrives, and we tell her what her brother used to call me when he was her age. Filtered again through the mind of a child, 'Steebum' got rendered as the charming 'Steambum' before evolving into 'Stimbo'.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
