It was meant to be the polar opposite of the original name I signed up with, plus I like cats.

Feel like a change now though.

Circe was this magic lady in Greek mythology who messed Odysseus around by turning his men into animals so that she could trap him on her island and hopefully get the D from him in the process. I don't identify with her in any way but she's on of the few antagonists in the Odyssey that isn't a complete tosser and I figured I could probably confuse a few people by making my avatar a circle at a later date so I went for it.

I read Homer's Odyssey so that wouldn't have fooled me

I was hanging out with a crazy pack of metalheads, these guys:





That whole crowd, the men and the women (who were almost entirely strippers, we were after all in the strip club capital of the US, Portland OR) were all extremely wild and openly sexual. Every one and I mean every SINGLE one of those people had boinked someone in common with any other one of those people, with one glaring, uberconspicuous exception, me. I was SO timid compared to everyone else, the main thing I had in common with them was a. music appreciation, and b. drinking. Heavy emphasis on that last one. I was a raging alcoholic and could literally pound down beer as fast as you could pour it into a sink.

So one of the members of that entourage (who quite ironically was famously under endowed, much much less so than myself, not that ANYONE ever actually saw me) figured out that Paul Smeenus made for a pretty amusing spoonerism (although they didn't know there was a word describing that type of play-on-words) and called me that at a party. Everybody there fell over laughing, I was humiliated and mortified at first but I came to realize that it was meant with love and I couldn't overlook the fact that it was an extremely clever nickname. It stuck, and ever since George Sr. was President I've been known as Smeenus.

And no, I never did get laid in that crowd. And as to whether or not there's any truth to it, I'll never say.

I like things that make me feel physically insignificant.

Also trees

It's the hex code for the colour black. It was just random.
