Whats behind your boards username?

rogue-entity · 24-08-2006 4:33pm #1

I noticed that many boardsies have funny, clever or just plain unusual usernames. I am just curious to know how you all came up with them.

I'll go first: Rogue, Operating outside normal or desirable controls (from dictionary.com), I am so because I deliberately choose to do my own thing and be different from everyone else, but not so different that I can't get on with anyone else, just enough to make me more unique. An entity can be anything, but I am referring to myself, hence RogueEntity.

So, whats behind your username?

*note to mods: If there is already a thread like this, then I apologise, but the board-tracker search thing just doesnt work for me.*

petes · 24-08-2006 4:43pm

I, for the life of me, can't remember how I came up with mine.

Beekay · 24-08-2006 4:46pm

I came up with Marts in 2nd year as a rival company to my friend's BMP, Marts is Mark's Arts, and BMP is *name* production

again, it was written on a piece of paper beside me.

Ruu_Old · 24-08-2006 4:56pm

Nothing spectacular behind mine, just a nickname used for my first name Ruairí, certainly comes in handy when people can't pronounce it, I'm looking at you Americans!

"Oh ffs, just call me Ruu!"

cornbb · 24-08-2006 5:09pm

Mine is what a certain Nokia phone's predictive text interpreted my actual first name as.

il gatto · 24-08-2006 5:13pm

Mine means "The Cat" in Italian. That's about it really. No reason for it. Sorry to be so boring.

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 5:18pm

Mine was brought about by years of crippling emotional pain due to being rendered a demi-cripple. The injury was caused by my soon-to-be nemesis, the evil Rusty Man and his mighty cannon. This sort of put me into a shame spiral, which resulted in many years wondering the himalayas attempting to find myself and define my belief structure in a world where God is dead. This is where I ended up with a mystical psychic nipple which was given onto me in an ancient Sherpa ceremony whose details can only be revealed to my "Shuglakunthuuurrrrr" or boy slave (Think more spartacas than amadeus).
That and the 7 years of evil himalayan medical school.

Mossy Monk · 24-08-2006 5:20pm

Jesus told me to do it

iFight · 24-08-2006 5:28pm

Nothing behind mine, I just went with it when i registered.

leche solara · 24-08-2006 5:31pm

...and there was I thinking they were people's real names. So I actually could have used a pseudonym!

Dirk Gently · 24-08-2006 5:33pm

There be a pale blue background behind my user name on boards, lest I go fiddling about with the styles.

Kojak · 24-08-2006 5:33pm

Got my user name from the greatest detective of them all.

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 5:34pm

Thats your real name?

Who me?

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 5:55pm

Yup.
Not to be rude.

leche solara · 24-08-2006 5:58pm

I've been told my first name is some Spanish word.

A hamster in a wheel?

Apart from that, not much mechanics.

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 6:01pm

Yeah its milk. So Sun milk? What the hell is sun milk? Or are you a solar powered cow, or goat, or other milk producing mammal?

leche solara · 24-08-2006 6:04pm

Yeah milk. Thats what someone told me it was. I couldn't remember until you said it. Thats weird. I must ask my brother Eclipso what ma and da meant by giving me that name.

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 6:06pm

Could be worse. You could have been born a bollocko.
That wasnt easy in evil primary school.

leche solara · 24-08-2006 6:08pm

Must have been tough in med school too...

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 6:10pm

Dr. Evil, Dr. Doom, and Dr. Demento were very mean.
But at least I had the bollockos to specialise in evil gyneacology.

leche solara · 24-08-2006 6:13pm

Do any of your patients ever have trouble presenting your prescriptions in chemists. What country does the name bollocko come from?

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 6:16pm

What the **** is a prescription college boy? I have a scissors, some whiskey and a bit of wood to bite down on.

leche solara · 24-08-2006 6:18pm

College Boy?
Don't call me that - call me ****, peedo, junkie, rapist but NEVER College Boy.

So your not a conventional medical doctor then? One of those homo pathetics maybe?

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 6:29pm

Im not introducing you to my parents or colleagues as the **** paedo junkie rapist.
And I gots a degree too. Its a more bare-bones doctoring that I do. Its hard to explain it in a format that doesnt involve me sending you hideously mutated body parts through the mail.
And evil homeopathy can be a valid alternative to evil aleopathic medicine I'll have you know.

leche solara · 24-08-2006 6:45pm

Jesus you're a quick mover. Introducing me to your parents already!!

dr.bollocko · 24-08-2006 6:48pm

It must be love.
We could make great love milk together.
But it would go off. Poisoning thousands.
We could hold the country to ransom!!
Its a plan!
Now quick.
Milk me.
Dont stop until we have enough to choke all of coolock.

Mrs. MacGyver · 24-08-2006 7:54pm

Always wondered why Mac Gyver never had a partner/wife or any romance (unlike the guys in the a-team especially face) so i decided to be his wife and stand up for RDA fans everywhere so i'm Mrs. Macgyver (sad really!!!)
