    I was trying to make up a username and discovered that 'confabulate' means 'to make up something'.

    My sister couldn't pronounce my name when she was young hence 'tata' and the bubbly bit is because my friends describe me as aero bubbles, lots of fun!

    Tyranax
    Closed Accounts Posts: 308 ✭✭Tyranax


    Mine comes from when one day me and Frada were at the bus station. I was riffing on the notion of a large conglomerate controlling everything, and sending operatives after dissidents and those who twig what's going on. I blurted out mid-riff: "Who are you? Did Tyranax send you??!?" And thus, Tyranax, an amalgamation of the words tyranny and ax, was born. My notion was unoriginal, I know.
