8/10 because it sounds intelligent (maybe?)

Sounds like soft guns. Like ones made of play-doh. Rolls off the tongue nicely. 7/10

Combining Tumors and Attitudes can only work if they are spaced together as in your username. Not only is it physically pleasing, it is also intellectually pleasing.
Throughout it all, the username is haunting, and its best moments rank among TumorAttitudes finest work, but the over-amped dynamicism of the name seems like a way to camouflage his dispiritedness. The name was never meant to change the world, but you can never predict when the zeitgeist will hit, and TumorAttitude's name turned out to be the place where attitudes crashed into tumors. This wasn't entirely an accident, either, since TumorAttitude did register in December, and he did release a name with a shiny surface, no matter how humongous the letters looked. And, yes, TumorAttitude is probably a little shinier than it should be, positively glistening with U's and T's, especially when compared with the black-and-white murk of his signature. This doesn't discount the name, since it's not only much cooler than any mainstream name of 2008, its character isn't on the surface, it's in the exhilaratingly raw letters and haunting grammer. TumorAttitudes's personal problems naturally deepen the dark undercurrents, but no matter how much anguish there is in this name, it's bracing because he exorcises those demons through his evocative wordplay and mangled posts — and because his posts have a tremendous, unbridled power that transcends the pain, turning into pure catharsis. 9.9/10 |
