Explain Your Username

[DimasRMDO]

Dimas is my name

RMDO is random, RMD is actually my uncle's full name (in short) and that's actually a coincidence, I didn't realize that when I made my username.

When I typed Dimas the username was already used so I put in random letters "RMDO" and it was available, so I went with that.

A really long time ago, I stole and mixed the names of two other people. Luckily, I haven't seen them since.

[_Riley_]

My name was taken so I added 2 underscores and it was free??

Time to explain it for a new generation of users.

No, really. This is Dan Castellaneta.

Long story short, 4-ish years ago I got obsessed with The Simpsons and the rest is history.

Mine's changed used to be wcreek...

it was a shortening for something that I used to do for 4H related to rabbits.

 

Now it's just random as hell. :shrug:

X Files episode. Best episode evar.

 

 

My user name comes from the fact that i despise Amazon for being a destructive market force in every way. Its anti-capitalist, anti-competetive, government subsidized, predatory, abuses its workers and ruins the quality of goods even more than they already have been by outsourcing to cheap labour countries. 

 

Its like Walmart used to be: government subsidized to dump cheap garbage, ignorant people think its a good deal as they ruin their local economy by shopping there. Makes it harder for me to buy quality goods, which i have to pay 2-10x the Amazon/Walmart prices for instead of marginally more like it used to be.

 

And as the pièce de résistance of Jerf Bozos the clownshoe's shittiness: they ruined Whole Foods, my favourite grocery store.

Oh, that episode.

Yeah, that's one of the funniest Simpsons episodes if I were to be honest. My favorites are probably Marge Gets a Job and Boy Scoutz-n-the Hood.

It’s been so long I don’t even remember why I said that. Sorry. 

 

[Jtalk4456]

I'll show you why I have this name, are you ready to see?

Ok did you see it?

Oh you didn't? EXACTLY 

[Guest]

I was like 6 and thought the 3 combined letters were cool together. The combination stayed in my mind every since and was a few offline video game save names.

Man, he's been using that name for... like a year and a half on various other places.

[KaminKevCrew]

First five letters of my last name, first three letters of my first name, and my chosen sport.

[AskTJ]

My username. I honestly have no idea. My username I joined with with TJR_420, then changed to AskTJ, but they sound stupid, so in about 80 days I will be able to change it again, and will choose a good username.

I was talking about his profile in the early days, when I was new to the forum as well. Good old days :')

Agree 100% on The Simpsons one, my childhood right there.

[Hairless Monkey]

Dead thread. I awaken thee.

 

I use to be quite the prolific tree climber as a boy. My friends would often find me at the very tops of the trees in their yards or in parks. I'd sometimes use trees to hide for hide-and-seek, or cheat in tag-your-it. Some trees presented a new and interesting challenge, and I couldn't resist the urge to climb as high as possible. Ironically, the only time I fell (by accident), it was from the lowest branch  of the sugar maple tree in my own back yard. I cracked the bone in my left wrist near the growth plate and had to wear a brace for a few months. 

 

Anyway, my best friend from childhood started calling me a hairless monkey boy. I used that nickname, "HairlesMonkyBoy", as my Xbox Live gamer tag, and have been using it as a username ever since! Haven't climbed any trees lately, though.

[pythonmegapixel]

Some website I signed up to required three word usernames for some reason. Python Mega Pixel. Just to make me sound vaguely techy (and also I know a lot of python so yeah)

 

The stylisation has changed a bit, but now I use it everywhere. Forums, youtube, twitter, and a load more I can't think of right now

[PlayStation 2]

Damn, I really didn't settle on this username that long ago, huh.

Well, if ya know, ya know but if ya don't, my current name comes from a hat in Team Fortress 2. It's a plunger for Pyro (and is one of the very few red-colored hats that doesn't come in an equivalent blue-color by default) and is my favorite hat from the game.
