why pipes? what is your favourite pipe?

"pipes" came from "pipelinks", which came from wikipedia's "piped links", aka links the text of which differs from the title of the article they lead to

as for why i decided to make that my name -- i have absolutely no idea lmao
neither do i know why i decided to shorten it to "pipes". "plinks" would've made more sense, since that's what a lot of my friends called me at the time lol
