What is the origin of your KF username?

My name comes from one of Papa Nurgle's most hard working grandkids, Typhus the Traveller, host of the Destroyer Hive, Herald of Nurgle, Chaos lord.

I've loved plague marines ever since I was little and first getting into the Warhammer universe. I want to learn how to paint miniatures so one day, I can have a whole fleet just to keep around.
 
In the old days of the Catholic Church (maybe they still do this IDK I'm not a catholic) a "devil's advocate" was the priest tasked with the rather unpopular position of investigating and challenging a proposed canonization of someone for sainthood or claims of a miracle. The modern inclination is a person who expresses contentious belief's to provoke debate. I like the old-school definition of the term more. You had to be a pretty brave mofo to tear down someone like Mother Teresa. Or anyone that's up for sainthood.

I just added in the white part to piss off the lefties.
 
It's a play on the name "Nykytyne", which was the alias that ContraPoints/Nyk was using when he first got on Youtube as "Nykytyne2". I once joked about it here on the forum and said that as a tranny name it should be read as "Nyky Snottrans", the name of a very snotty transwoman.
 
What I see in the bathroom mirror every day.
Joking aside, it's a reference to a riff from the MST3K episode Space Mutiny. At one point, Tom Servo comments that the female lead is a "sexy senior citizen."
Before you ask, yes, I considered Blast Hardcheese (and Slab Bulkhead, and Flint Ironstag, and Big McLargeHuge, and....). Those names just seemed a little too obvious, though.
