...a moment to gripe.
On Twitter, some butfuq took the handle @AbnormalFreak. This was mere months before I joined and so I couldn't claim it. This person has never made a tweet.
On Instagram, another butfuq took @abnormalfreak. I think I originally had this one but I deleted my first account, lol. Oops.
To my knowledge, I'm the Internet's original Abnormal Freak. It's not the most unique and creative name I suppose, but it's mine. It pisses me off I can't use my handle elsewhere. I have it in a couple places at least.
Rant over.

They could've been lurkers that checked this place out and saw your sig. It wouldn't surprise me if that was the case. At least they won't be able to use it here since it's already in use ;)
I've seen similar things whilst out and about net surfing. I even saw that someone else was using 'X' for their internet ID as well. But it's only a single letter and any number of users could be using it anywhere :-\ I'd say there's a bit more thought you put into your user name then I did mine, so I can definitely see how more then one AbnormalFreak would crawl under your skin a bit.

There was a brief period in Twitter's infancy where I outright robbed a guy of his username (ImitationJesus) but eventually I felt bad and changed it to ImitationImitationJesus for a short while before eventually leaving Twitter for a while. I came back one identity crisis later with my Lumi Kløvstad moniker and I've been that basically everywhere ever since.

I did successfully change my Twitter handle to @GratuitousSex while trying out new names, but I figured I'd change it back since likely somebody was banned for posting porn on it and I didn't want the association, lol.

Wasn't it Lumi Rockets or something? I remember Lumi being followed by at least two partial monikers before I ever saw Lumi Kløvstad.

Yeah I remember the Lumi Rockets.

Basically everywhere. There were a few exceptions. And I'm positively chuffed y'all remembered. ^,..,^

LOL! It wasn't all that long ago, so yes I still remember ;D

I feel your pain. Inccubus isn't exactly very unique.
Hell my other handle Lord Vanya or just Vanya gets got almost as often.
