Now that we are all switching to Lemmy, now is the time for all the redditors with embarrassing usernames to make their username right! Don't screw up this time!
Incidentally when I was an Uber driver I picked up a passenger who was a tall, super muscular black man wearing very little clothing, like a lion cloth or something.
I had been expecting someone named Jenny.
He told me he was Abbadon, Archangel of the Abyss, and that he was here because humanity was on the brink of massive death.
I wasn’t sure what to say. I pressed him for details but he said it would not be good to tell me.
He asked how I knew the city so well. I told him I was just following the blue line. He said “what blue line” and I showed him the Uber app on my phone. He asked about the capabilities of the phone. Seemed fascinated by the way the map changed in real time as I drove.
The drop off point was a diner. But given it was a few hours before dawn the diner was closed. I asked if he wanted me to take him somewhere else instead. He said no, “This is exactly where I need to be”.
I came up with the name in highschool. Me and some friends had a gaming club. We all chose usernames from demonology. Abbadon was some kind of 7th layer duke or something. It was the most appealing name since others had allready taken beelzebub and all higherups. Over the years I've found that depending on the source, Abbadon can have different roles and ranks or not even be mentioned at all.
