'splain your username

upstatedoc · 05-30-2013, 12:54 PM

I've seen this thread on other forums and found it interesting how some people came up with their usernames. For me, I'm a corrections officer.

KingOfJericho · 05-30-2013, 01:02 PM

Wow, I always thought you were a doctor but now I get that it's really D.O.C. lol

When I was in high school I worked for a car stereo store and used to compete in db drag races. It was a play on shaking down the walls of Jericho (ancient biblical stuff). It's been my screen name/user name for about 15 years.

rdub315 · 05-30-2013, 01:03 PM

and i thought you were a Dr. this whole time. lol.

mine's kinda weak - my initials are RW, so people tend to call me "R-dub"

edit: just changed mine to add my area code.

PINeely · 05-30-2013, 01:08 PM

PINeely- First and middle initial, and last name. How original!

catherineanh · 05-30-2013, 01:13 PM

it is my full name!

fireline43 · 05-30-2013, 01:26 PM

Stupid one i've been using for 15 years now. Started in high school and I just stick with it because It's so muscle memory. Fire- I drove a firebird in high school. Line- I played linebacker. 43- was my number of course. I wish I could dump it for something new, but every time I try I forget the username I made when I come back!

Samurai of 2day · 05-30-2013, 02:35 PM

I have been a practitioner of the Martial arts for quite some time, but have spent most of my training in the more traditional arts, and not so much the more modern MMA.

I have been referred to as a "ninja" , lol but I more prefer to follow the traditional role of the Samurai.

So basically, I would be most likely considered a modern day Samurai. I use this tag as my username on the very few social networks I'm a member of.

Oh yeah, as I currently am serving in the armed forces (as traditional Samurai did) I guess it works on two levels, lol!

Thousands. Bunch of Generals, senior enlisted, infantry, shot some Recon guys before they jumped out of a plane, even full formations of troops at a time. Shot Thai Marines, Korean Marines, Singapore soldiers, British soldiers, Mongolian soldiers and many more. I have taken quite a number of souls in my time in.

Joekerr · 05-30-2013, 02:43 PM

I like to make people laugh...so mine's sort of explanatory?

I've had my username on AIM back in elementary school since 5th grade (i'm 24 now lol) it was the "COOL" thing to have AZN in your screenname and I thought I was so cool so hence.. "cool Asian kid" once I started going to meets (e46 days) everyone called me by my username in person so it just stuck, now that i'm older I just decided to keep it since a lot of people know me by this name
