Username
"421yet" is a combination of two ideas, with which 421yet identifies strongly. Choosing and putting together two ideas to represent an entity is analogous to the naming conventions in some cultures. 421yet uses "421yet" as his name in only a few selected occasions.

421
"421" originates from a personal episode, when 421yet was on Bus 421. There, he was rather astonished to find someone very much to his liking (this has so far been a unique occurrence). Given the chance, he would have loved to get to know this person. However, he could muster up neither the courage nor the initiative before the bus arrived at his stop, where, disappointingly, he hopped off. When he realized how much he was attracted to this person, how special a moment this was, and how little it was the awkwardness that would have costed him to just ask her name, and how big his ego must be to be unable to afford a bit of motivation, the bus had been long gone. He regrets to this day his lack, a compelling personal reminder that "to seize the moment is often an active endeavor,"and that"give one chance only oneself may."Soon, he took the number 421 to represent the fleeting moments that are to be seized.

Some find the lack of reference to 420 underwhelming, although it is possible that the proximity of the numbers may have been a factor.

Yet
The origins of "Yet" is quite literal, in that when first uttered, it meant "yet," synonyms of which include "still," or "even now." This was during what in many ways is a proclamation to himself after some stagnation in the pursuit in one of his passions. He realized that, despite his periodic absences, he had yet to give up on his passion, and then swore never to. This, then, allowed him to "forever be yet in pursuit, or, simply, to forever be yet."He hence embraced "yet" to be part of his very identity to proclaim and constantly celebrate with every utterance his state of perpetuity.
