    Just wanted to mix it up a bit. I might go back to CMpunked at some stage.
    I was watching a few old sesame street clips last night and realised i loved telly as a kid.
    I watched the clips because I watched the being elmo doc again a few weeks back.

    Few months ago I finally signed up to Netflix for the month trial.

    Ended up mostly watching old episodes of Power Rangers. Best show ever.

    (gets urge to change name to Lord Zedd)

    If I was to ever change my name on this, I'd probably go with something Warhammer 40k related. Perhaps Angron or Mortarion.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,226 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    Was half-considering changing mine a few months back and was trying to think of what to change it to. Then they asked me to be a CMod and I thought probably best not to change it for a while or else it'd be too confusing

    GTA V trailer expected today.....kewl.
    Hard to know what i'd change my name to always liked the sound of Action Bastard or maybe just to annoy him Diabhal Mhor.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    I probably wouldn't change my name. I think that my username fits my personality quite well! If I did change it, it would most likely be music or sci-fi related


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 6,773 Mod ✭✭✭✭connemara man


    I'd change mine but I'd never be able to think of something I'd really be happy with, I only picked this as I was known as the lad from Connemara by a few people that were on here, outside of boards when I joined


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,124 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Yeah, mine came about cause most of my friend's called me Denny, even a few of the teachers in my old school called me it :P


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,128 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    I'd happily get the ice out of my user name. I cant even remember why I put it in to start with.

    I was thinking it was a reference to DJIce :P


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,639 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    dont think id change mine, had it so long now I am Bounty Hunter.

    Always thought the ICE was something to do with Iceland and the DM was related to Danger Mouse for some odd reason


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 12,013 Mod ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    Is it a Star Wars or a Dog reference?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,639 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter

    Neither tbh, it came from a card game myself and my cousin played when we were young Magic the Gathering. I'm sure any old boardsie would know it cos gathering cards where running jokes here at one point, for instance

    carlweathers.jpg

    of course mine was just the name of a card that I had in my deck when as a young child I played the game back before Sports & Women corrupted my innocent mind from such innocent things :pac:

    though tbh it also having the Star Wars links and being the name of a bad ass profession (guess thats the right word) would have certainly helped in my decision (probably didnt really put too much thought into it at the time tbh).

    Thing about name changes is people do it so often you have no idea who they are. Did it once back in the Little Shyte era.

    Never got the fuss with Zlatan until he was at AC but jesus I miss him so much these days a player with breath taking technique, great finisher, hugely creative and yet a lot of brits don't rate him which only adds to my George Costanza like man crush.

    Astonishing goal alright. People calling it the greatest goal ever are going a bit OTT though.
