What inspired your username?

Forget about mental illness for a while and just let loose in here.

'Snaga' is both an Orc given name, and 'slave', in Orkish, in Tolkien's Middle Earth universe. I'm a slave to my fears, a slave to my circumstances, and a slave to my lusts.

And I wanted something debasing. And I didn't want to type 'Slartibartfast' every time I logged. If we don't already have a Slartibartfast.

I mean it's an adjective and a plant, there's no deep meaning behind it. It kind of just came to me.

Someone I care about deeply calls me by this name. No one can make it sound as special as he can.

I chose my username more for the aesthetic than any deeper meaning. I like the word absinthe...it has an anachronistic quality that evokes a different place in time.

Also I’ve never actually had absinthe and I don’t drink hard alcohol ever.
I’d gladly settle for a false impression,
If it would last a little longer, though

Then I can tell you you'd definitely not like it. The prettiest thing about it is the name (I do like the word Absinthe) and the colour.

Unless you like licorice times 1,000, you won't like Absinthe. Now that it's legal again in the United State, me and some friends went in on a $65 bottle of the stuff. It was horrid.

Hmm Google brings up this:
Despite the common notion that an absinthe drink is going to taste just like that dreaded black Jelly Bean, the spirit isn't actually made from licorice root. It does, however, often have twinges of anise and fennel, which are similar in flavor to licorice but more subtle


'Twinge'? 'Subtle'? Ha. It still tastes like licorice, and there's nothing subtle about it. Think green Nyquil times a thousand. We tried the sugar cube melty thing, ummmm no. Maybe if you dumped a handful of sugar cubes in it...

I’m ruined for licorice flavor. When I was in college my friends helped me celebrate my 18th birthday with a bottle of sambuca. Nine or 10 shots later and I was one very sorry Absinthe.

Haven’t touched sambuca since. Or anything else licorice flavored.

It does look like green Nyquil. Has the same toxic glow lol.

Now that you said that it made me thought that green as a color to drink seems bad too.
although sometimes it seems like there is a hidden fairy in it and magic but you can also see it just as slime

Green is one of our two favourite colors and we've always liked drinking green....

And well we love fairies, especially green ones.
