Well, mine story has always been on my userpage, but here it is again:

"Okay, so you might be wondering why I called myself TheCarrotSaysYumYum. It's a story from my primary school days, which seems like aaaages ago now.

Basically, I was School Captain at my primary school and during the last week of school I was writing a speech with my best friend -and fellow Red House Captain- to present at our graduation ceremony. We were writing it together when she left a word out of a sentence. We had always been taught to use this ^ symbol when showing the insert of a word into a sentence, and I had always known it as the "carrot symbol". When I wrote it down and inserted the missing word, my friend asked my what I was doing. When I told her about the carrot, she said "That's not a carrot!", and proceeded to draw a huge carrot over our entire speech, exclaiming "Now THIS is a carrot!". I then proceeded to draw a giant speech bubble from the carrot, intending to write her name followed by 'is an idiot', but she beat me to it, writing 'yum yum' in the speech bubble. So, over our completed speech the carrot said yum yum, and I have been using the alias -among others- ever since XD Kyahahahahaha, well that's that, hope you liked it ◕ ‿‿ ◕"

...and that is that ^___^
