Where'd you get your handle from?
I'll start off by telling you about mine. Some of you have probably already figured it out if you read the entertainment thread. I'm a fan of a particular fantasy novel series, and there's a berry in them that's called "Aliantha". That's were I got my handle from.

Ask anybody who knows me ... I'm wolf.
The pump don't work 'cause the vandals took the handle.

Hey, serendipity strikes. You say that and I ran across this.

someone in a band i used to play in called me mr noodle because i couldn't stop noodling on the guitar during practice between songs.
People think it's some kind of muppet name, though. i've never seen the muppet mrnoodle, but i dig muppets, so it's all cool.
1st name: Lum

I always thought you'd be one of those

I've been in the eyeglass business since 1978.
Oh cool! It's always handy to know another optician. (My current prescription is -12.5 in the left and -22 in the right.)
My Dad's Y chromosome. Thanks Dad!
Played in a funk band called Dr. Smooth. When I registered my first email account with hotmail, the name DrSmooth was already taken by the lead singer. Well, that was the moniker I wanted so ...

Check cellar comments and suggestions ... there are two or more threads there about this.
ferret rhymes with my first name
I stole Capt. Fargon from a friend. My CB handle is Missin' Link that was layed on me by a Doctor in San Clemente Ca., because I'm built like a gorilla.
It's a shortened version of my dragon name. I think it means 'herald' in Greek.
I liked the pun -- I have a penchant for bad 'uns. "Incorrigible Punster: Do Not Incorrige."
after we saw the "beavis and butthead" movie me and my college roommate at the time talked like butthead and called each other beavis. i wish i was joking and no, marijuana was not involved.
Can't remember. :rolleyes:
marijuana was not involved.
lol...what about alcohol or high doses of sugar?
no original thought involved
Nick name form the Marines .
Live in Florida now and my Chinese zodiak is a Dragon ... pretty silly when I consider that I don't believe in zodiak signs at all. Guess it could also be attributed to Piers Anthony and his fantasy Xanth novels since they are based in Florida, has dragons and all the rest of the world is "Mundania".... :D
second choice would have been wabbitkiller (from the comedian spoof of Elmer Fudd's punk rock son singing kill the wabbit)
Handles 'R Us had a sale.
lol...what about alcohol or high doses of sugar?
over-caffeination for sure
Ahuh...but that's not why you call yourself dov. :) Unless you lied to me the last time you answered the same question.

Well bugger me blind! I thought I could count on your honesty dov. :( What in the world shall I count on now?

So I got the NotAnAngel......
Spent four years, until the site closed down being known as the Satanist. HAHAHAHAH.
My Original Handle before NAA was Raine..
...don't recall. I was really drunk at the time.... certainly I was in the right. Nic name that stuck to me from the service, actually.
Do your service buddies call your son "Boy Howdy"? :smack:

Well,
I think that's funny. :cool:
I'm amish, hence my name.

At 6' 2" and 240 lbs., most people call him Sir. ;)
well.. seeing as how I had spent the bulk of my life a 'simple Kansas Farmboy (tm)' it felt right (and those creatures from Time Bandits scared the crap out of me as a kid..) and I can be rather bullheaded. with a soft nuget center..(also the name of one of my favorite bands (Kill Creek) songs)
I'm getting a braincrushing Deja vu here.
It's like I somehow knew already how you all had gotten your handles.
I got mine from eating like a fucking 20 year old and not riding my bike 60 miles a day once I bought a car...
Mine's easy
Se - south east
ak- alaska
divers - well there you go
I thought this was a pic of you seak ,
Nope, that's my sister. My boobs are bigger.
then you need to post a pic to prove it !!!!
i have an unfortunate tendency to kill things, drag them up trees and eat them.

Not that easy, ZIP. I had to buy a boat and paint Greenpeace on it just to see her butt. :lol:
Nope, that's my sister. My boobs are bigger.
Tell your sister she has magnificent boobs.
magnificent.
I was trying to think of a name that summed up something about me. I'd been listening heavily to "I Got Dem Ol Kozmic Blues Again Mama" around then, and I'm a Pisces. So I chose KozmikFishGirl which is weird for me because I usually hate when things are misspelled, but it worked for me. But people have weird associations with fish and I got a lot of bizarre comments. Then I had a baby and didn't feel like a girl anymore. So I shortened it to Kozmique.
I think I have mentioned this elsewhere, but for SG ... :D
My handle is my initials plus 512. 512 being a power of two. It's less important/useful now, but when I first started programming you had to be familiar with the powers of 2 up through 2^16.
Actually, looking back over this thread it seems to consist mostly of answers from people who didn't stick around.
Still, it was started by Ali and I posted an honest, if brief response in it, so we give it gravitas.
You too now.
You win the prize for being the most thorough.
I lose for mostly just searching under my own name, which means I missed at least three (concluded before I joined)
Interesting reads though.
I want to change my name to: ema cympeltin
I want to change mine to "Imma Letya"
There must be more threads. I remember addressing the issue once but most of those threads are before my time.

Yeah, I don't claim to have done an exhaustive search. There must be more.
You need to talk to Els.
ok but I only have coffee and donuts to offer...and a good ear.

good one!
Right before I fell asleep last night I thought of a good misspelled user name but I forgot it. Had I known of this thread I would have written it down.
I'll start off by telling you about mine. Some of you have probably already figured it out if you read the entertainment thread. I'm a fan of a particular fantasy novel series, and there's a berry in them that's called "Aliantha". That's were I got my handle from.
Where'd you get yours from?
Kind of sounds familiar. Is it the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant you're refering to?
Me...
I'd change it if I could, but no point in doing so now. It serves as a reminder how things were about three years ago - I really felt like I was going mad - family issues, extended family issues, etc...
There's a lot of drama in my extended family. We (my wife and I) rarely get involved anymore (although they'd love for us to "solve their problems" again). We learned they'd just take advantage of us and then dump on us later anyway. Sad to say, but our own grown kids did a number on us too.
The other part of it is my sense of humor. It's a little off the norm. :nuts:
My reasons for my user name were threefold: only one of those reasons is still relevant, and that is the obvious reason.
I wish I had chosen Heywood Jablomee.;)
I saw some very cool photos of Saturn recently, and fell in love.
Favorite band. (I am far from being a queen in any sense of the word, let alone having my own Ryche.....)
wtf is a pfa?
you know, pfa: personal freakin' anecdote. Now, mind your own beeswax.
yeah, then why post about it at all? I don't know about you all, but I dont' care THAT much. ;)

Ohhhhh...
Must learn more mnemonics. And no, kiddies, that isn't pronounced 'pneumonics'.
H-H-HAGGIS - I laughed so hard I stuttered!
A long time ago, in a land faraway .. there were Very Few English People on this board ....
A little tavern from long ago and far away and a little town more recently and closer. I wanted something different than my usual nom de plume.

To be fair, you're not over-run now. Undertstand your point though.
Funnily enough, sleepy finger typed it in some olde tongue (cut & pasted)
ti be ffaie, your moe overrin noe
Nice....
BTW - did you see David Mitchell on
Who Do You Think You Are?
I always thought Gaelic was pronounced Gay-Lick.
But the scholars went for Gallic (as per French) all the way through. I admit I missed the beginning, but is this a new thing? Like Tutankhamun, Urunas, Boudicca etc?
the non-vanity license plate version of my handle is Pilot Hi-jinx
I must have lost my handle. She left owing her bills. Again.
Can I handle it? I'm like a broken axe. I ain't nothing but handle.

to be ffaie ... the (Scots) Gaelic language is referred to as "the Gallic" as far as I know. As to the wider cultural reference, I dunno!

I always read it as pil-thi-jinx. Always wondered what it meant, too.

howdeh!

yeah,a few years back we were having a similar discussion and there were several different spins on it.....(too lazy to look it up, too early and not enough coffee yet!)
I stole mine from a dead Hobo. Really.
Better not have been one of the hobos I killed. I retain all rights to my dead hobos.
[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Mine is easy: I am an obnoxiously conceited and self-assertive person with pretensions to smartness or cleverness...okay, maybe not so smart of clever, except in my own consciousness...but my delusions often break free and find their way into a blog/post somewhere before being ignored or scoffed at (also by me).[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana][/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Speaking of dead hobos, there's one over at a shut down Wendy's over near my house. Know anything about that one Shawnee-girlie?[/FONT][/COLOR]
Uh, no, er...eh...
Not fileting and cooking one's dead hobo is abuse of a corpse, and frankly, not very environmentally friendly.

Not to mention a waste of good meat. I mean really, there are starving people all over the world. At least donate some to the local food bank.
I have two handles. I got them from beer.
I used to dig graves. The old part of a local cemetary was so cluttered w/graves & giant headstones & crypts that the machinery couldn't get everywhere it needed to. So...We were the crew that hand dug the graves in the older sections. Anybody need a hole?:yelsick:
