Title: Names
Post by: Phil on May 04, 2001, 11:34:58 AM

Im just curious why each of you picked the name you did(plus im bored).  Im very unimaginative so i used my name but some of you guys have cool names and I was just wondering why you picked them.

I don\'t know.I\'ve used this nick for some time now and I\'ve only seen one person have the same nick.I also get some sick and twisted pleasure when people say something like "I think no one likes donkey raping" and I reply with a whitty comment like "yep,sure do" :p

I have also been known to use the nick Mushroomhead,but rarely though.

Mine comes from the fact that once I grew up enough to question what I was taught,and look at how things really are, my faith in religion died.

It\'s obvious where I got my screen name from.  Anyone who doesn\'t know is dumb. :p

EDIT:  To prevent future flaming from those who forgot to turn their sarcasm detector ON, I shall call upon Mr. Smiley to clear things up...

Post by: FatalXception on May 04, 2001, 10:50:26 PM

I got mine cause my old nick "Tomcat" or "Tomcat666" was lame.  So I sat around brainstorming one day, and came up with a huge list.  Then I crossed off all the "unoriginal" onces (ie other people on ICQ had them), then I crossed off 1/2 of them, the ones I didn\'t like.  Then I asked my pals - and came up with the name I use now.

Oh, and please, nobody screw me over by taking it on ICQ (it wouldn\'t be a huge deal, I\'m the first, but it would be mean).

Well, I started out with the name Joyda - it was quite original and a twist-off of my favourite SW-character\'s name, Yoda - and it has the word \'Joy\' in front of it.

I got the rank \'Darth\' when I joined the dark-side, wich rules this board.

Small Lady of the manga/anime Sailor Moon; also known as Sailor Chibi Moon or Chibi-Usa. She\'s little, she\'s cute, she likes pink. And she transforms into mean Black Lady. I shall give the original Small Lady a :cute: smiley.

Post by: SonyFan on May 06, 2001, 01:09:27 AM

I was just very unimaginitive. It sucks now, cause whenever I go to a new forum, people always expect me to be some hardcore "everything \'cept Sony" hating mofo. I also used to call myself {8up} on the mIRC channels since I was a pretty big pill popping burnout at the time. Outside of here, I\'m either Liquid_Blue or Cosmic Charlie (that\'s my Doom2 name).

Post by: Gradman on May 06, 2001, 05:14:08 AM

I don\'t really know, a while back some guys i know, that I grew up with gave me that nickname. It\'s not take of the late Sir Don Bradman\'s name though. One day they were talking, and for some reason created the word Gradman. For some other reason, they called me Gradman later that day, and it sort of took off from there, it just became my nickname with a lot of people....

:laughing: I was one of those people. I was like WTF is a GUK? I thought you meant to say RichGUY. :D

My name is from DBZ. I don\'t watch it that much but Gohan is cool and I found a tight pic.

I used to be IcebergSlim. A real muthaphukkin pimp. That is what I go by most of the time. Most of my friends call me either "Ice" or "Jay"

Mines a shortened version of a nickname that sucked too much to repeat.

in case anyone asks, it rhymes with "shakes", not "taxi".
