Oh i just meant Simpsons. Used to be a great show when i was younger. 

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.

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

Ok did you see it?

Oh you didn't? EXACTLY :ph34r:

Insanity is not the absence of sanity, but the willingness to ignore it for a purpose. Chaos is the result of this choice. I relish in both.

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.

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

Hey! New SIgnature! 

 

I'm supposedly a person on the Internet, but you'll never know if I'm human or not ;)

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.

hi.

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

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.

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

Thanks for reading all this by the way!

By the way, my desktop is a docked laptop. Get over it, No seriously, I have an exterrnal monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, ethernet and cooling fans all connected. Using it feels no different to a desktop, it works for several hours if the power goes out, and disconnecting just a few cables gives me something I can take on the go. There's enough power for all games I play and it even copes with basic (and some not-so-basic) video editing. Give it a go - you might just love it.

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.

Not my own idea, actually, but it generally tends to be available, and in a way I love it. I see it as a kind of self-humour that shows your acceptance of the fact that you aren't an expert. In matters we discuss here I'm hardly new, just never having progressed beyond a certain level. Ever an amateur, not even a semi-pro.

pretty sure I've posted this in another thread somewhere, but it was such a long time ago.

 

It's an amusing mispronunciation of my real name because of a particular friend's accent that became my nickname way back in school and everyone else just kind of ran with it.

It's... my name? Sort of.

 

First name starts with S. Last name 'Chew.

Happy coincidence that if you mash 'em together, out pops a fancy English word I happen to like.

 

This is the only place I've used "Eschew," though. Other places, I tend to use "Geminox" as my username.

  1. TV is my initials. 
  2. When you're making a username in the mid to late 2000's, it's cool to use Z's instead of S's.
  3. I'm leaving my mark on the internet with my comment or presence. 
  4. I'm too lazy to ever change it.

Combines my two biggest interests: tech and weather.

 

The 970 is from my gamertag typhoon970.  Fun fact: typhoon970 was originally supposed to be typhoon870, referring to Typhoon Tip's record low pressure reading of 870 mb in 1979.  However, I made a typo, and this was back when you couldn't change your Minecraft username.  (Ah, 1.7!  The good ol' days!)  I found that typhoon970 rolled off the tongue better than typhoon870, so I stuck with it.  (970 mb is a rather typical pressure for a typhoon so it still works.)
