<h1>Why my nickname is Mofette</h1>

<p>When I used the internet to begin with, I would go on the Virgin.net chatroom as Angel. This was back in 1997 when I was 14. The internet was a relatively new thing, and you didn't have to register your names for this chatroom. One week I was not able to go into the room, and I found out that someone else had been in there using Angel as a handle.</p>

<p>I started using Teen-c Girl. I was hanging out a lot in a BiBBW Chat room, and I would be used as bait a lot, as as soon as men came into the room [men weren't allowed] they would talk to me because of the "Teen-C" part. We would kick them out and ban them. Unfortunately in 1997 someone pointed out to me that it would probably attract some unwanted attention, and so I had to think of a new name.</p>

<p>I was really into the band U2 at the time, and my favourite song from their latest album <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000001EAQ/sr=8-1/qid=1143485724/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-4569301-1286522?%5Fencoding=UTF8">Pop</a> was Mofo. I viewed Mofo as much too much of a male name, and so I decided that Mofette would be a suitable female version. It's often shortened to Mof, and my dinosaur alter-ego Mofzilla often comes out to play...</p>
