    My lifelong eczema/dermatitis was effectively cured recently thanks to a plant based/vegan diet.

    I've been eating lots of veg/fruits recently.

    So I had that sort of thing on my mind when I was signing up.

    It's an elongated version of my name, but not the actual elongated version of name.

    Stargate Atlantis was playing when I signed up. Didn't imagine at the time my account was going to be a long term thing.

    The odd time someone tries to insult me by saying "sure your taste in TV is ****e" and it honestly takes me a while to figure out what they're on about.

    Welly is the name I've been called by my granddad since I was small. Now lots of people call me it. One of my nephews didn't know I had a real name they just assumed welly was my real name! People are often amazed that I'm not in fact a man.

    A nickname from some people on Boards I got when I was on my old account. So I decided to use it for this one when I got back.

    I am guilty of stealing my user name from this thread http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057175682, I couldn't think of anything good the day I joined and saw this thread on the home page and thought that will do. I then added the ... for my own bit of uniqueness:pac:!

    So what does your username mean?
    Nothing other than it's related quite closely to my name in real-life - but misspelled owing to the login having been chosen for a separate website one evening, while quite plastered. It serves as a daily caution.

    Obviously mine refers to Lady Macbeth from the play Macbeth by Shakespeare. She is one cruel lady who knows how to manipulate men by using her sexuality, just like myself of course :pac:
    Lady McBeth also went mad, was written out of the script and died in anonymity - if I were you, I'd choose another login :)

    Remember that LCD bravia TV advert a few years ago where they released thousands of balls down the street in San Francisco? For some reason it popped into my head, then I remembered a prank show on channel 4 where they called them luh cuh duh tuhvs, and the rest is history

    Virtanen
    Closed Accounts Posts: 1,288 ✭✭✭Virtanen


    As a fan of Person of Interest, one of the early bad-guy-companies in the show was Virtanen Pharmaceuticals. Thought the name sounded cool, so I started using it here and elsewhere on the web

    I thought it was just a made-up name that the writers came up with, but it turns out Virtanen is one of the most common surnames in Finland, so I've had a few people assume I was Finnish, but alas I am not

    Mine is the name of a device used to read codes from a Nissan.
    It was also the title of my first message/thread.
    I wanted to sign up to ask for a link to buy the device, and I couldnt think of a name. So yeah.
