View Full Version : My Name Here Is ________ Because:
Storytime: There are some really cool, unique, and hilarious site "handles" out there and inquiring minds want to know: WTH did you chose THAT forum name for?!!
********************************
Mine has been the same on 20 plus forum sites since 2008....it's always the same,LBR, so peeps can relate to me whichever site I post on......so,
L is what my first name starts with, B is for my wife's first name, and R is for our last name (boring, huh?). So, if you think your story is better, then let's flippin' hear it! If you have changed forum names a time or two, then let's hear that story as well. Maybe we could turn this into a poll or monthly contest?
Senator
06-08-2015, 11:56 PM
I joined my first forum in the early 2000's and, not knowing any better, used my real name as my handle. A friend on that forum quickly made clear the error of my ways and suggested using Senator, a nickname already in use by those close to me.
I have a couple of other user names on other sites but on most I am EPL . And yes mine is just as boring as LBR's. E is what my first name starts with, P is for my wife's first name, and L is for our last name .

My user name ( Fast Pat ) was given to me because everyone always complain because I want to go faster.

Alfa because I'm usually the oldest guy in the group, and Baz a left-over nickname from the year we lived in Australia.

johnnycat was given to me by my friends kids back in the 90's the 8 came to because johnnycat 1-7 were taken so johnnycat8 has been it and most of you have shortened it to JC8
Turtle Tim

I usually use my initials on the forums, THD. I decided to change it up this time.
I got the name from Brodie. There was this steep hill and one big rock in the middle of it. Somehow I ended up on top of that rock with all four wheels off the ground. I learned that is called turtling, hence the name. Quite a few people call me turtle now thanks to Brodie, and that is usually how they call me on the radio.
BTW, If anyone finds me on my back kicking, please flip me over so I can go on my way!

We've met and I'm surprised! I thought it was for the way you drive?
I thought you were normal, not unstable, and I thought I was normal, but if you're unstable and I think you're normal, am I unstable, or maybe everyone else is unstable and we are normal, but what are the odds of that? I'm confused and getting a headache.

Lol i thought my driving was normal and my mind was crazy. If my mind is fine but my driving is crazy and you have followed me I'm pretty sure we're both crazy. Driving or mentally I'm not sure?

Beer Mod
07-05-2015, 10:59 PM
I've gone by Ultra4 on several sites for years because of my KOH Ultra4 car. Now that it's sold, I'm all in on the RZR scene. I picked Beer moderator because of the drama that came with the rzr scene as I was finishing my build (won't go into detail). Being a moderator is tough esp when your in charge of the beer......lol

My parents were (still are) farmers when I grew up. Our farm was really "fowl" with chickens, turkeys, ducks in Dad's man-made pond. Grade school class mates called me Birdman, only sang it to the "Batman" theme song "Birdmaaaaan, dadadadadadadadada....Birdmaaaaan!"

My wife and I were sun bathing on the back of our boat at Camanche. I needed another beer, so I climbed over her to get one. Little did we know, our next door neighbor(Wally) and our boat racing buddy Tony Scarlotta were watching and they came up with a nickname for us. "The Humpers". It stuck with everyone here, so we are Mr. and Mrs. H. Lol

I use my name because there are 2 Ed's all the way back to the old club days. Who's name name can not be spoken. I've been thinking about changing it to EDD and start using( double DD ) because when we are together and somebody calls for ED we both answer.

I've had several Jeeps, and still have one now. I like being in the mountains in low range. We have had horses for quiet some time. So ..... Low Ranger kinda like Lone Ranger :-) I use that in the Jeep forum and has my handle on the CB. Use the Rzr in low range a lot too, so thought it would be fitting, plus keeping it the same. My wife goes as Goldielocker in the Jeep forum. Blond hair, she likes to drive the Jeep and thinks the locker in it is really cool and likes to use it. She also use to have her own Suzuki Samurai. She loves the Rzr!
