I used to love the old Lucas Arts games when I was a kid (Monkey Island, LOOM), and Bobbin Threadbare was the main character in LOOM.

I started calling myself Bobbin from the moment I got online and I use it to separate my professional and personal life. My friends and girlfriend call me Bobbin more than anything else.
