Inspiration Behind the Name “Totse”
Jeff Hunter, a notable figure in the early online community, was inspired to name his Bulletin Board System (BBS) “Totse” during a memorable night out with friends. While drinking at the HOTSY TOTSY bar in Berkeley, California, he and his NirvanaNet buddies were brainstorming ideas for their new online platform. The atmosphere of camaraderie and creativity led them to play with words and concepts that resonated with their experiences.
The name “Totse” emerged as a playful twist on “Hotsy Totsy,” reflecting both the lively spirit of their gathering and the informal nature of BBS culture at the time. This choice encapsulated the essence of what they wanted Totse to represent: a space for free expression, sharing unconventional ideas, and fostering a sense of community among users. The name stuck, and Totse became known for its eclectic mix of content and vibrant user interactions.
Ultimately, Jeff Hunter’s experience at HOTSY TOTSY not only influenced the naming of Totse but also set the tone for its identity as a hub for alternative perspectives and discussions in the digital landscape.

Then we skin one of them once in a blue moon and have a big barbeque way out in the woods, naked, wearing only antelope and deer heads, as we stare morosely at one another across the flames.
