Have you ever....
googled someone's username and location? interesting results!
ps I actually chanced upon a few funny ones (not saying that people on here or other forums are one and the same as in google results by the way)
pps I googled my username and location to find a post quickly via google when I wasn't logged into BE, no crazy results for me, but other usernames and locations, funny results!

Its funny when you think you have come up with a pretty obscure unusual username it isnt that unusual at all

Re: Have you ever....
Just googled mine and found I'm currently in upstate NY, selling my home and starting a new chapter in my life
I thought mine was unusual enough

Nothing unexpected for me, just my nutrition tracking/ranting site and a techie forum, and BE of course 
I try not to reuse my BE username all over the 'net. It changes regularly anyway

I use a shortened version of my usual screen/gaming name here - googling my usual name, I'm several poems, lots of photos, a couple of songs and what looks like a porno site...

Re: Have you ever....
No good Googling me so I've Googled people I used to work with when I was a geophysicist to find out what ex-geos do when they get a life.
I've found an entomologist, a rare rose grower and published author, an actor, a professional podcaster, an oil company CEO, a Uni professor, an astronomer, an accountant and numerous teachers. So my transformation into avocado grower seems fairly tame.
