[punkncat]

lol, thanks. That was a fun post.

[xxkylexx]

My name is Kyle. That is usually taken so I added some x's around it.

[thahouse]

was dubbed "House" being the 320lb bodybuilder and ppl often referred me as "the guy built like a brick house" and it stuck..

[michbich]

My name is Michel.

I crashed into a ditch the first time i drank and had to go to the hospital by ambulance. I was named michditch but it kinda diverged to michbich after a while.

The funny thing is, i wasnt even driving, i was just walking and fell in the ditch. Turned out to be a pretty deep one though LOL.

[SummaryJudgement]

^^^

How did you "crash" if you weren't driving :rofl:

Was it a particularly bad stumble?!?!?

:cheers:

[michbich]

Actualy, i fell because the friend that was holding me vertical let me go.

The ditch was rocky, at an angle and unusualy deep. I fell down face first all the way to the bottom. I don't remember anything other than waking up straped to the hospital bed the next morning with bad bruizes and a scratched up face. For the next month, the rumour at school was that the scratches were because my cat rapped me. But worst of all, i somehow lost all my drugs that i had in my pockets lol

Wow, here since 2002 and only 69 posts. Mad lurker lately??!!


I have always been an avid reader of books on metaphysics, religion, philosophy, magic, occult..... "the Warwitch" was something a buddy used to say when he was busting my balls (becuase of the books and pb addiction) and it just stuck.


Styg: Ive always thought you have the best usernames Ive seen.

[Madcat_MK2]

I used to play Mech Warrior on the computer when I was a bit younger. I started with MW3 when it first came out and liked a particular machine the most called Madcat, so I started using that as a handle for when I was online. Then I got MW4 when it first came out as well, which had a updated version of original Madcat called Madcat MK2, so I just figured, eh why not use the updated name even though I didnt like it as much as the original lol. So it kind of stuck and I use it for practically everything online related.

[MANN]

my dog is "man dog" and most of the time is just "man" so I just went with that.

[DanMan]

still havent heard about tunaman what about him?

[sunjess]

[pk5]

pk5 for player killer back in the day when online game is still text base ( MUD ). 5 because pk5 was taken.

[Lenny]

Some guy at church YEARS ago couldn't remember my name, so he yelled out "Hey Lenny!" and I looked around trying to figure out who Lenny was. Since I responded, it stuck. Everyone at the church calls me Lenny. And I kind of like it. It's not a nickname you hear often.


...

[Bolter]

...

hehe! Cool!

My username is my surname.

[BREAD_DA_PAINTER]

My nickname is kornbread so i just used bread_da_painter...


Short version for nick::: went on a trip with a friend right out of highschool to visit his family in west virgina.. Went out to eat with his dad and a few friends and some one he knew came up to the table and started talking to him and reach in for a piece cornbread off of the plate in the middle of the table and in reflex i hit him in the nose and broke it... His dad called me cornbread the rest of the trip and it just stuck...

[t0nnn]

[Geronimo7]

Because it's all or nothin............geronimooooooo
and the 7, well thats cause I am Edward the 7th not jr or senior or the 3rd but the 7th :cool:

[FIST2CUFF]

Years ago I got hooked on Quake. Thee original Quake, not Q3, Quake Arena...etc. I attended alot of LANs to play Quake which did ultimatly carry over to the following Quake installments and I played alot online. I used the handle "Milkman" which I had used when I was in the military (84-91). Before long everybody and there brother was named "Milkman" when I would go online so I got tired of it and tried to come up with a unique name. One day "FIST2CUFF" came to me (from the word fisticuff) or "FIST" for short and it stuck. When I got into paintball I used that for my gamename. I do not play online anymore but was curious and asked my 24 y.o. bro that plays COD4 online alot if he has seen "FIST2CUFF" used and he told me that he has seen it alot. Bunch of losers cannot even come up with there own name????

[cyrus-the-virus]

My names cyrus, people have been calling me cyrus the virus since I can remember.

I've also been called cy-fy, but I like Cyrus The Virus better.

[SOAD8789]

My old favorite band + DoB. SOAD's still great, my taste has shifted a bit since then though.

[Lenny]

hehe! Cool!

My username is my surname.
When you first PM'd me and I read "Bolter," the first thing to pop in my head was a picture of an angry bunny with a lightning bolt in its hand. Swear to God. And no, I'm not a stoner.

But I might be on to something with that bunny thing...

[chafnerjr]

Mine's not nearly as interesting as all yours: chafnerjr is just short for Chris Hafner Jr.

I don't really worry about this internet privacy thing. I don't do anything illegal, I pay attention for identity theft, and I'm from NH so it would not be a good idea from someone on the internet to stalk me though I would get a little more target practice in if they did! :cheers:

Live Free or Die.

[SN toter]

Sn toter...because back in the day I toted a Super nova ;)

[Runamok]

First few games I played I had no clue so I was running all over the field. No brain no fear.
A more exprenced player asked me did I always runamuck on the field or did I not know any better? Well with a small spelling change(I couldn't spell right) I became Runamok and I still don't know any better. But it still suprises people when a 270lb 6'2" guy who's not fast goes to the 50 on the break.

[DBC]

Mine is my initials. I know, it is very boring.

[DanMan]

Tunaman, I know you are out there!
