Ok, here we go...


We all have our User Names as mine is Mespock. So what is the story behind your screen name?

I know some are obvious like Joeychgo.... I assume is Joey from Chicago. 1wykdmk8 One wicked mark VIII....MonsterMark....I don't think Bryan is talking about his body parts LOL.


But what is the story behind Sifrino, Pepperman, Katshot etc....


As for Mespock it started back in the early 1990's when we got our first Internet connection at the school I teach. I was given the go head to explore the Internet and find out about this new media. I had no Internet at home and wanted an e-mail address. I found the old Rocketmail, which is now part of Yahoo. My son and I were into Star Trek at the time and I tired to used Spock and my e-mail address. I didn't want Spock124,67 so I tried mespock.

Since then I have used mespock as my computer identity.

heh... intresting.

my is what it is because when I signed up on other boards a few years ago, I owned an 89 Tbird SC. Well, I figured why change it... it's easier to remember between forums instead of having to have a new SN for every one

My name came from a nickname in Highschool. If I remember correctly, I had a friend pissed at me and instead of swearing he was making words up and Jibit came out and they called me it ever since.

I've also been called Smiley but I don't think that fits my personality well so I dont' ever use it!

Mine's pretty easy to figure out. :D

Mines obvious too.

This is so lame..."Hint's Clue" is one of my Quarter Horses registered name. Thought it would make a great screename, so I borrowed it!

My name is Joshua McAlister, a lot of my friends just call me "Mc" and "MadMac" is a nickname I've had off and on for a long time. "MadMac" and "JoshMc" are always taken when it comes to email and the like, and things like jmcalister are hard to come by as well. So I stuck it all together. :sleep:

Mines obvious too.

I'm a little stumped on this one... :feedback

LOL. just playing... :gr_hail:

Well my retarded Stra Dog alias came about because my dad is in a motorcycle group/gang called " Stray Dogs "... and blah blah blah it's somehow on my plate now, so I just made it my name also.

Damn Rich.....I think you are the ONLY one to EVER figure that one out for yourself. Most ppl are like.......WTF does that mean. And here I was thinking I was gonna hafta splain what it meant....... :Bang

well mine is kinda a combination of nicknames i have an uncle who we call "apple head" well all my lil cousins just add head at the end of everyones nickname n when i was younger my unlce dubbed me wit the name buckett couse i ate the last piece of chicken in a bucket n i was a chubby kid so he swore i ate the whole buckett so it stuck wit me

Back in the early 90's when the Internet was first becoming popular to the public, I had was going to attempt to start a company called Codewize Computer Services. www.codewize.com

However as I evolved in the wonderful world of computers the path that Codewize was taking kept changing. The outcome is that Codewize Computer Services never evolved into anything.

I ended up with 2 companies www.adldatacomm.net and www.webspundesigns.com .

I kept the name as a universal log in.

Come on Kevin I know you want to tell the story again :)

When i was registering for this site i had to come up with a user name, i wanted a good one and i just happen to see a Dr. pepper can and took the word pepper added man and came up with pepperman. :cool:

Used to program Zilog z80's in high school (1994-1999). Have a shirt my dad got from attending Zilog programming courses in 1980-1981 on... dadadaduuuuuuum: Zilog z80's. Has a picture of Captain Zilog on it - there was a neat little comic about it too, something only true nerds like me would appreciate. "Stick it in your index register, Diabolicus!" Hahaha

Sifrino

Venezuelan: Best Clothing, Best Cars, Best Everything, Sifrino Manners. . .

Randeaux is the final product of an incident that occured over 16 years ago. (consequently, it's actually RAN-DOH, I just hate it being spelled that way.) We were a tightly-knit group of friends in high school (actually, a clique of Air Force Brats that outside of immediate family had no one else near San Antonio. Most of us had also known each other from the different Bases we had lived at earlier in our lives.)
It was the summer of '88 and most of us were between 14 and 19 at the time, we'd hang out at the local Dunkin' Doughnuts (Military Dr.) . Doing dumb stuff that teens do. Anyways about 11:30 the guy behind the counter (Who was a balder, fatter version of the Dunkin' Doughnuts guy) answered the phone, " Is there a fats here?" he had bellowed out. About 5 minutes later, the phone rang again, this time the doughnut guy came up to me."HEY FATS TELEPHONE! YEAH,YOU MUST BE FATS, RIGHT?" Mind you, there was at least half of the clique sitting right there when this happened. I looked at him as I had no clue at all as to what he was talking about."YOU MUST BE FATS, BRONZE CUTLASS, BLACK T-SHIRT WITH THE CURE ON THE FRONT, I THINK YER FATS!AWNSER THE (BLEEPIN') PHONE FATS!" This guy must have been no taller than 5'5" and about 400#'s, at that time I was about an even 6',260#'s.
Before this night my, nickname was "Gomer" after the character on "Full Metal Jacket" I looked just like him then.Somehow, to my "friends" (Gomer+Fats=Doughboy!?!) Anyways, to make a long story short, about 5 years later, it was changed again to the nauseating RAN-DOH ( after an embarrassing incident with a tub of "Play-doh" at a local toys-R-us.) and EVERYONE was (and still is calling me that) I just took it as a moniker of honor.
And then about '95or'96 I had changed the spelling of it when I went on a date and we ended up eating at a restaurant called "Pappadeaux's". I had an epiphany. I wrote my idea down on paper and I thought "How (expelative) cool is this?!?" And that's how Randeaux came to be. I Kept it when I moved to GA. And out of honor to the best(for the reals!) group of friends I have ever had, I just had everyone call me Randeaux. I actually consider this a classier derivative of Randy anyways! :rolleyes:

Sirfrino Lives!!!! must have taken a bit after his Viking lost to the Pakers. Hey I was pulling for the Vikings!

Are you a Daddy yet! :Beer

In 1982, my dad let me key up his Cobra CB Radio in the car and he said, 'You need a 'handle'" ... so he gave me "HotWheels"

I was 7 years old, and being the only kid in town in a wheelchair, "HotWheels" became pretty popular. My dad's CB Handle is "Spaghetti Eddie" and he's known all through out the world on the CB (and who would think a standard CB Name like that wouldn't really be taken anywhere else in the world) so he said "Make sure you're as popular as me" (How egotistical is that?) Now we're talking about 1982 here on CB Radio... I kept "Hotwheels" to this day, on CB and in 1993 I discovered the "Internet" well, TELNET on a Unix box and joined my very first chat room telnet://resort.org:2323 (Can you believe it's still around) and someone had "Hotwheels" So I decided to spell it "HOTTWEELZ".

When I came home from College in '94 Summer, I NEEDED Internet, and signed up with CompuServe. I remember I was 155160,15@compuserve.com ! and was like "Hmmm, that sux" so I joined AOL and stuck with "HOTTWEELZ"

To this day, I'm the only "HottWeelz" on the Internet... just like Dad's realm on The CB Radio World in 1982. See the relation here?

* There is a "HottWeelz" on boatingworld.com (or something) and that's the only site he can join with that name... I make it a hobby to lock "HottWeelz" as often as I can.. I have email addresses that I don't even use... just to lock the name... but Mr. BoatingWorld "HottWeelz" has been fighting with me for years! I will win, I will win.

This is a cool thread. Usernames almost always say something about the person using them. In my case, there's only been one person that ever figured it out. He was a Navy pilot that I got to know online a few years ago. The history of the name goes like this;
1. When I was in the Navy, a common term for a catapult launch of a plane off of a carrier was a "cat-shot".
2. A few years ago, I had a Suzuki Katana 1100 streetbike (my dream bike). I named it Katshot. Just cat-shot with a "K" from the Katana.
Stupid name I guess. :rolleyes:

. . . his Viking lost to the Pakers. Hey I was pulling for the Vikings!Isn't that a dangerous thing to say for a guy from Wisconsin? I'm guessing you're not a native.

I was tired of my regular user-name that I usually use so I came up with another. I'm an Okie, and there's a redneck here at work that calls everybody by their name and adds "bob" to the end of it. It got to be a big joke around here, so now we all get in our hick-mode from time to time and do the same. My name is Ken, I just shortened it to K.

Isn't that a dangerous thing to say for a guy from Wisconsin? I'm guessing you're not a native.

I'm native grew up close to Green Bay. Saw Gale Sayer run once and that's all it took to become a Bear's Fan. Now that's hard living in Wisconsin.

I also have a bunch of those fanatic Packer fan relatives - Drive you nuts!!! Packer Christmas trees, Packer, Packer, Packer, makes you sick.

mines pretty self explanatory....VIII for the mark....ball just came naturally, cause all you other guys took all the cool mark viii names,at one time i was going to change it when i moved from the lod, but its easier to stick with the old so everyone knew who you were. i was scared to use it at first,for the cocaine referance,but I wouldnt know nuthin of that..... :give instead!!!! :Beer






this is bad for you.....

Not yet, xcept he satyed at the hospital 12 hours before going home the other night. She thought her water broke. Doctor doesn't know what it was. . . I can't beleive the Vikings lost. They didn't start playing til the second half and they almost one. Lets you know they are still a young team.

Yup - Joey-Chgo You got it right.

I've had it for about 12 years -- I was an AOL member WAYYYYY back when we used to pay 3.99 an hour for access. It let people know where I was from.

Yep, joey was the first one to start online dating. Hint:Chgo

You betcha - Oh those were some fun times --

You betcha - Oh those were some fun times, talking to all them guys. man ohh man. Those pictures they sent me. Yummm Yum! --

:eek2:

Welll my first real internet experience was when Geno told me about the LOD.Prior I had very limited internet experience, and I had no idea even how to post in the forums.
Well, he told me how to register and that I needed a screen name.

At the time I was already deep into the construction of my silver car "the BEAST" and at the time there was no one else in the world building a badazz Mark that compared to mine.That coupled with the fact that I was younger and cockier I used the name unstoppable.


I since then have thought about ditching the name, but too many people know me by it now, so unstoppable it is.

Yep, joey was the first one to start online dating. Hint:Chgo

Sifrino must be in withdrawl as he's posted how many times today LOL. :biggrin:

My name is explanitory, i like Cadillacs and the movie Caddyshack, so it fit. My high school was too big for them to remember our names, so the administration labelled us. i was 17901.

My screen name is self explanatory, 94 Conti owner and proud to be one. :L

Joey has that postin' skill, everyone better :bow:

Hi All

Seeing that there has been a number of new members to :V this past month I thought this might be a good thread to bring back up to the front.

A little socialization between members -

So new members chime in on your LvC handles- :Beer

Haven't been here (or anywhere else on the internet for that matter) for awhile, so here goes;


Tattooing has been illegal in South Carolina for the past 40 years. I've been actively involved with the legalization process here for the past 6. I live in South Carolina, and work in a shop just over the border in NC, where everyone from SC has to travel to. Therefore, I keep very busy, Tattooing SC.



(and you thought it meant Supercharged, didn't you?)

My son owns a 1968 Torino Formal Roof two door. 302 auto. I nabbed the line before he could. 'sides if he ever gets on I'm pushing for him to use a nickname given to him for obvious reasons. NillaGorilla
We'll see!

Mine's a reference to skydiving. A buddy of mine started calling me it after I did my first freefall dive and wouldn't shut up about it. So the name sorta stuck. Not very clever but at least it represents me.

"Only skydivers know why the birds sing."

Mine's pretty self explanitory. It represents a tendancy to pursue adventures, schemes, projects, etc. that are generally regarded as "less than safe, cost effective, or smart".I refuse to tiptoe through life, only to arrive safely at death.

Gee I thought it was because you were a big Tom Petty Fan LOL

The inspiration behind my name is this:

Resurrection - while looking for post and thinking about Ray.. I came across this Thread. Thought it would be a good one to bring back.

Well since the thread is revived, I'll chime in.

I am a Workaholic.
After High School, I was always working. I worked over time when avalible, and when not, I worked construction with my uncle for 2ish years. Then when I had my bike accident I had nothing better to do than surf the net. I go by my last name, Ike, around friends and work. So, always workin. After my back healed I went to another job and started college, then after graduation. Got a second job, so I have been doing an average of 70+ hours a week from 2002 till this past sunday when I quit one job.

I'm a drummer and my old HS drumline nickname was Shaggy.

Old DJ name from the 90's house parties and dances, I just added LSC to it!:cool:

well my name is chris fischer, you get the idea.

Well mine is.....MERI my wifes name, And JON my name, and of course my 97LSC. It's also the name of my powder coating company.

Well........
It could either be.......

"The" Man
"Treasury" Man
"Tony" Man
"Top" Man
"Trouble" Man
"Tune" Man
"Tone" Man
or just
"T" Man

So, take your pick. I've been called them all.

When I first got hooked up with email back in high school I chose n8bachelor because I have always prefered Nate to Nathaniel. I have since used several deviations of my name (Nathaniel Bachelor) as online ID's. For instance: MrBachelor, N8TheGr8, MrBachelor4life, NateB, etc. Guess I didn't need an alternate identity for my websurfing.

The avator on the other hand was just something I liked and had laying around. It is the weeping sun from Sublime. The GIF I loaded changes colors and appears to breathe but would not once I loaded it. Guess I'll have to upgrade to Gold status.

Great thread by the way.... I've been here over 2 years and never came across this one before.

O and mespock...... "Live long and Prosper"

How about "T&A Man" :D

is accually a decent story behind my s/n... all my other screen names growing up have been EyeSAdrift.. thats the name of a band consisting of Nirvanas old Bassist, Sublimes Old Drummer And The Former Singer Of The Meat Puppets... being that sublime and nirvana are my two favorite bands that both ended tragically and much to early... i decided to honor them by picking the s/n EyesAdrift for Aol, Yahoo, MSN etc.. then a few years later i buy my lincoln and look up mods, finding AngelEyes to be the best headlights availible i joined LVC under the name AngelEyesAdrift.. pretty nifty right?

<--- Kinda self explanatory, however i specifically chose the third word to start with a lower case letter, as the interior isnt really blue - its aquamarine. Also, blue on blue is a common British military term for what you guys call 'friendly fire'

This is a great thread Rich :)

That's why I didn't include that one. I figured it was taken. :cool:

chose pagan blood because i'm of slavic heritage. the ancient slavs like most ancient civilizations, excluding some like the hebrews were pagan. but mostly i chose it cuz i think it sounds cool hah.
im not really pagan

when i joined this board i had a 97 lsc that i no longer have, thats why most everyone else knows me by jamies98lsc on other boards, its also my email@aol.com didnt put much effort behind the name, oh well!

How did I miss this thread? I took my name because of this love of power that I have, torque. I tend to overpower/overbuild/over think/etc... many of the projects/situations that I have come across. When duty calls and there is a tough spot to get through, I get the call.

Monkey came about while working at Amex. Instead of using my trade mark term "MotherF**ker," while in-house at Coproate America. I say "MMMMONKEY!"

Combining the two make sense when I work on overtightened or cross threaded fasteners. The thought that comes to my mind is, "who was the torquemonkey that did this?"

Namaste' :cool:

The Jersey Kid...:p

Straight outta jersey city:D

Had a small side business when I was in the Navy. Sold and installed audio. needed a business name for the tax i.d. that is what me and a friend came up with.

ok well, i got the name chicken in high school. some "friends" wrote a letter to a girl i liked talking about doing things to chickens and signed my name to it, so then everyone started calling me chicken. it pissed me off at first, then i got smarter than all the kids in my school (yup they were really dumb lol) and learned if i started calling myself chicken then they couldnt make fun of me for it, and it worked!!! so thats how chicken was born (BEFORE the egg) so that was when i was 14~ish and now at 30 chicken lives on, there are lots of people that dont even know my real name. my parents know me as chicken, everyone at work calls me chicken (or a version of it) all of my friends call me chicken. when i joined lvc it wouldn't let me just use chicken, for what ever reason so chickenviii was born. so like when i met driller the other day he asked my name and i said chicken, he looked at me funny, but im used to it (and i did tel him my real name......eventually).
so for everyone else i meet just call me chicken.
p.s. cliff burton was god!! :headbang:
