Well, I hope someone actually reads this!! Okay, so my name is Jordan and on the day of the National Yo-Yo Contest, I will officially have been throwing for a complete year. Excluding the 2 months before that that I started yo-yoing just for fun!! So, when I went to Nationals and met André, I got super inspired!! So I bought a Dark Magic II and he signed it so I was suuuper excited! So, my username is my first name followed by my favorite yo-yo!!!

You didn’t accept my friend request D: (Error Ming Li)

Well, it all started in a game called Combat Arms. My friend was ImBBQ, my other friend was WeBBQ, so I decided to change my name from ForeverXXL to YourBBQ. I used the username for almost everything; my YT, my passwords for my accounts on websites, and yeah.

Siarnaq from megaman zxa is my favorite boss in all of megaman and I accidentally misspelled it. The MN is model number and 42 is my favorite number. The underscore is just to make it more serial code-y. I was going to get the misspelling fixed but ive used it for so many accounts I decided just to run with it.
