Curious Is as Curious Does

So, I suppose you could call this a "meme". Maybe. Anyhoo.

1. Where did you get / what is the inspiration behind your LJ username?

2. For those that use it, what is the inspiration behind your AIM name?

beyondgotham - I admit, this wasn't really inspired by anything. It was like, 'I should include something in there so you know it has to do with Batman... okay, how about Gotham? Okay, yeah, that's good, but should I point out that it's from Batman Beyond? I'll just toss 'beyond' in there. Okay. Done.'

itsmynamenow - Since I decided to have an account solely for Batman icons, I wanted to do something clever that pointed out how Terry is the new Batman. So I modified a line of dialogue from the BB episode 'Shriek':
Terry: Tell me something - why were you so sure those voices weren't coming from you?
Bruce: Well, first, I know I'm not psychotic.
Terry: I hope your other reason is more convincing.
Bruce: Second, the voice kept calling me "Bruce." In my mind, that's not what I call myself.
Terry: What do you call yourself? [Bruce just looks at him for a moment] Oh, yeah. I suppose you would. [Batman voice] But that's my name now.
Bruce: Tell that to my subconscious.

watchwith3hands - Rei has a watch. It has three hands. Bam. (Actually, I wanted to give him the name 'universeman', from the TMBG song. But that was taken. So I wanted to use 'mutabilytemporal' after the trope Temporal Mutability (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TemporalMutability), but that didn't fit. So I just went with the watch thing.
