User blog comment:BLACK OUT/5000 edits Q&A/@comment-4077536-20151022221520/@comment-4902297-20151023045028

My previous username, Spudow!!, wasn't a universal username. That, and it sounded plain ridiculous when being messaged elsewhere. So when my younger self, with zero taste in usernames, changed it, BLACK OUT was what resulted. I originally wanted it to just be "blackout", but that username was already taken. So, I put a space in it, and thus, my username was born.

To be honest, I have no bloody clue why I put it in caps though.
