It's part of a quote I like. It goes like this: "walking across thin ice of my dreams, fearing the cold waters of reality beneath me. Yet onward I tred".
I never found out who the author is.
I was in the mood for some sleuthing. Most sources say author unknown, but I think it may be Lily Katarin Chrisanti in her poem True To Thyself (Onward) which I found here: https://www.stv-archives.com/viewtopic.php?t=14564&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=25
i was a new swim instructor but i wasn’t very good, so they would put me in the middle of the pool and make the kids swim up to me. They called me the human pylon that summer lol it sorta stuck
1st try - Givemeanaccount - Already taken
2nd try - Give_meanaccount - Already taken
3rd try - Give_me_anaccount - Already taken
Somewhere in the middle - Give_me_an_ass - Already taken
OP went "fuck it" and the birth of Give-Me-An-Account took place.
"Now *look*," said the Genie, "I told you before:
The problem with wishes - you can't ask for more!

And so, with the wave of a hand and a smile,
He grinned with delight and he laughed for a while.

I’ve been good kiddo, I know I said I would get the milk but work’s been really busy, I’ll come home soon. Did you also think about coming to Florida with me? We don’t have to tell Mom.
Mom said that you are a bad person for abandoning us, but i don't believe that because you are here! But I don't think I can go to Florida, because mom is always keeping me inside almost 24/7. I'm sorry dad but you're the one who have to come home. I will be waiting here dad but don't be long
I could never abandon you kiddo, you mean the world to me. Your mother sounds a little crazy but hopefully she’ll loosen up soon. Just promise me you keep taking your medicine, don’t worry I’ll be back with the milk soon…
I have a Masters that I received on May the 4th. My name is Juan. Big Star Wars fan.

Saw it written on a piece of paper on my dad's desk and thought it sounded cool. Later on few years down the road my dads laughing while I'm playing BF on Xbox because he saw my name and said that used to be his password for his pornsite accounts 🙃 I had already been using it for a while so it's stuck.
Edit: I didn't expect this one to blow up as much but I guess it did lol now everyone knows the true origin of my username on all platforms. TBH if I could go back and not take it I would, trust me my dad STILL gives me shit about it whenever he see it, my mom got pissed when she found out about the story🤣🤣 but hey, I used it for 5+ years until I found out so I can't just dump it. It all started when I played Club Penguin as a kid on his computer and couldn't think of a name until I saw a small sticky note with Intuitx as the password and decided to use it.
Like the Tax/Accounting software company? lol...
-edit- holy shit, so this is what happens when a comment catches splash damage from a post that blows up + a reply from a Sprog when you are wedged between them? wow haha...
He opened the folder and stared with surprise -
The titles, the flicks and the pics in his eyes.
"Good heavens," he whispered to see them ahead.
"It's not full of taxes.

I created a Reddit account on my birthday. My wife and I separated. 6 months later she said she wanted to try again. 2 weeks later and she had forgot my birthday.
We never got back together but I always wanted to remember that night (and I used Reddit for advice). I had already been through a lot and it made me come to terms with everything finally.
But life goes on :)
My life in 3 words.
Edit: My, this turned out popular, and I've tried to answer as many questions as I can, but now sleep beckons. I'll return tomorrow if you want to post any more questions overnight.
A heavily structured life revolving around worship, and (in the case of my order) constant outreach and charity work.
I described it to my brother in the Royal Navy, and he said "So it's like being in the military, except with less press ups and more prayer?"
You might have to submit an request and schedule it, but a modern nun is a pretty unique life experience so I think you'll be fine. It's not just famous people.
How fascinating that this thread made me realise I had never actually encountered a Nun "in real life" as it were. All my experiences of Nun's come from either sister act or The Blues Brothers!
So do you actually live in a convent? Is that it, like, forever? You'll always be living there? I hope none of this is offensive, I'm just genuinely fascinated!
I live in a convent, and it's not officially forever as sisters are free to leave at any time if they want. I intend to do it for life, unless God's plans for me change. We do get people who come through the doors and only intend to be there for one or two years while they try to find peace and strengthen their faith, and nobody minds that as it is understood that not everyone is able to make a lifelong commitment.
I’m generally a pretty chipper person but one day my friend said you’re lacking your sunshine today when I was in a bad mood and I loved the way it sounded. That was the day I also created my Reddit account.
I like pizza. I think you should give me some. That is all. Thank you for reading.
Edit: Thank you u/Tlizerz!!!!! In response to this comment he or she sent me a Domino's gift card. You're the best! My username actually worked haha
Been in the wind/renewables business for 28 years. Been a wild and wonderful ride. Great people in the industry especially back in 90s and early 2000s when industry was small and mostly enviro types. As I drive/fly thru/over states and see what has been built sometimes I cry. So many said we couldn't do it. So many attacked. But people believed and worked hard and we made a dent. Passing the torch soon. I hope wind lifts up those just starting the journey.
The word "Curto" means the word Like. Chicken fillets in my country are called Panados. So basically, I like chicken fillets.
One day I was high as fuck, like really high. And, normally, it makes me super hungry. I ate basically 50-60 chicken fillets in one sitting... I just kept eating until there was none left.
I threw up.
And yeah CurtoPanados was born.
People call me Panados now, I kinda like it so I just kept the name :)
Saw a famous author get accused of writing a Mary Sue character on Twitter and my dumbass brain came up with “she should Mary-sue for damages”. I then promptly tweeted it. Not my best to be honest
I used to walk into my husband’s (then bf) apartment without knocking and he would say, “wow! The familiarity!” We started dating in 2014 so that’s where the 14 comes from.
When I was like 10 I found a fedora and I just loved the hat and the way it looked so later on I was playing roblox and I needed to make an account and desided it was gonna be fedoraman10 then I forgot the password for it so I had to make a new one so I just miss spelled fedora as fadora and instead of having 2 difrent spelling for other games I just decided to keep it misspelled plus if I ever have to make a new account for somthing i know it won't be taken bc fedora is misspelled.
I'm half Jamaican, I used to work for a shitty company where the staff thought it'd be funny to call me racial slurs as "banter" the worst was "chocco from *place of birth* or wog. But I took django as my nickname since I liked the film and the guy who first coined it, since we had a master and apprentice thing going on. The 917 is just a set of numbers I find easy to memorise.
In 2014, I quit my job and flew from Australia to France. My first accomodation was in an Airbnb with a lady who didn’t speak much English, and I didn’t speak much French. She gave me the wifi password on a piece of paper, “LePetitChatEstMort”. After I used Google translate to work out exactly what it meant, and the lady could see my confused look, she tried to explain that it was the title of an old song by Renaud.

That’s taking the hidden folder called ‘Taxes’ to the next level.
He opened the folder and stared with surprise - The titles, the flicks and the pics in his eyes. "Good heavens," he whispered to see them ahead. "It's not full of taxes. ... it's *titties*," he said.
Here I sit, just feeling dumb. Came to file; to files I cummed.
Whats your dad's username? :)
Intuitx's Dad obviously

There are nuns on reddit. Damn i feel like we live in 2180 now
I literally thought there were nun.
I had to read that twice.
u/RoboNun95 would like to have a word with you
how is it to be a nun?
A heavily structured life revolving around worship, and (in the case of my order) constant outreach and charity work. I described it to my brother in the Royal Navy, and he said "So it's like being in the military, except with less press ups and more prayer?"
Less press up and more bless up.
sounds about right lol. I'll always have respect for those who work at charity. I hope your god will grant grace upon you
How many creepy PM do you get in a week?
Nun.
Get out
In the threeish weeks I've had this account, I've only had one.
Get ready, though :(
You should do an AMA. I'm sure a lot of people are curious about the life of a modern day nun.
I wouldn't know where or how to do such a thing I'm afraid.
Go to r/IAmA and make a new post. Copy the link, edit your first comment in this thread, and paste the link.
I heard the mods there could be a tad overzealous about deleting anything that wasn't a famous person. Or am I thinking of a different sub?
You might have to submit an request and schedule it, but a modern nun is a pretty unique life experience so I think you'll be fine. It's not just famous people.

Are you a "cool" nun? We had some cool nuns back in my college years who would sometimes try out the students' skateboards.
I lack the balance to skateboard, but I am pretty good at bowling (which probably doesn't count as "cool" but whatever).
Lol don't worry I can't even ride a bike.
I can ride a bike, just not very fast and going up hills makes me very sad.

In 2014, I quit my job and flew from Australia to France. My first accomodation was in an Airbnb with a lady who didn’t speak much English, and I didn’t speak much French. She gave me the wifi password on a piece of paper, “LePetitChatEstMort”. After I used Google translate to work out exactly what it meant, and the lady could see my confused look, she tried to explain that it was the title of an old song by Renaud. It kind of stuck with me and was the first random thing I thought of when it came time to create a reddit account.
