  16. evilevets

    evilevets Sergeant Major

    Well, I used to have mood swings here and there and worked in a department with a bunch of pranksters (including me). We would constantly bust each others balls and pull wild pranks, but depending on my mood, sometimes I could dish it but not take it.

    There were a few occasions where someone would say or do the wrong thing at the wrong time and I would go from calm and relaxed to throwing chairs across the room and telling people to "let's go oustide and settle this".

    The guys thought it was funny, so my "evil" alter ego became "Evilevets" (my name is Steve).

    I've since calmed down a lot, but every once in a while someone will piss me off and Evilevets will make an appearance, but thats pretty rare anymore.

    cindysnoopy Shotgun!

    My first name is Cindy, and I've always loved Snoopy. Had Snoopy bedsheets and curtains when I was a kid, and when I moved to Chicago, I brought my Snoopy pillowcase (all that was left from when I was little). A friend of mine started giving me all the Snoopy stuff she came across, and I ended up with quite a collection over the years. I'm Cindysnoopy or Cindysnoopy1018 on just everything I have to have a username for. :)

  25. g1lgam3sh

    g1lgam3sh MajorGeek

    I've always been fascinated by myths and the way they way they resonate and morph through time. The numerals are a semi private joke about a certain aspect of one myth.
     
  26. pegg

    pegg MajorGeek

    Um -- was this proven scientifically? ;)

    pegg -- "P" is the first initial of my real first name and "Egg" is the beginning of my maiden name. In college one of my friends used to call me "PEgg".

    Never knew why she decided to call me that...but pegg is pronouncable and works so...
     
  27. G.T.

    G.T. R.I.P February 4, 2007. You will be missed.

    GT is my initials, and has been my nickname from time to time. I tend to live by the KISS philosophy... "Keep It Simple Stupid!" ;) It's G.T. only because the board software wouldn't accept a two letter nickname.
     
  28. Matacumbie

    Matacumbie Rocky Top

    I lived in the Florida Keys for awhile, little place called Islamorada. Used to dive and fish out of a great little place just below there known as Lower Matecumbe, thought I would use Matacumbe, figured it would go right thru.

    After I joined, I noticed that I included an ( i ) in the name and couldn't change it. Odd, I'm usually pretty good with my spelling. :confused:

  39. Lev

    Lev MajorGeek

    Years ago I used to use the nickname Leveller in a chat room as I love the band The Levellers (UK people may know it), and as I met people from chat they started to call me Lev, so it kinda stuck. I used to have a car with a license plate LEV 616F way before I ever had this nick..should have kept it!
