If you send it.
They will come.

 

My nickname comes from the late 70's, early 80's Saturday morning kids show called TISWAS, in UK just in case you don't know.

Can't be sure why I chose it, though I've been using it for the past few years, even before I got access to the internet, and used it to record my Minesweeper times on the PC . I've also used it as my chat alias back when I used to go to chat rooms, and also on other Bulletin boards.

Are you sitting comfortably, then I'll begin...

I did a degree in Criminology and a friend of mine convinced herself that it was something to do with dead bodies (confused with Pathology I think)... so she used to call me Ed The Dead Guy.
Some people seem to think its because I totaled my Mini in a spectacular way involving a tree and fence etc and probably should be dead.. but thats wrong... and I'm not!

 

To cut a long story short......

My first ever winter climb,a Grade II gully in Scotland with 3 others. Halfway up, an avalanch hits us. We fell 400 feet down the gully - and amazingly survived with only bruises and sprains.

As we were picking ourselves up, one guy says "I think we earned a few Airmiles pointsthere"

This was not my first, or last, near-death climbing fall....suffice to say, the name stuck!

(However it WAS my last winter climb....)

A few years ago, I needed an alias for a clan I was joining - my study at the time was full of Fosters cans, which I never seemed to throw away.

Whilst thinking of an alias I was looking round the room and it was pretty obvious really. when we moved we cleared away 6+ bin bags of fosters cans!

 

I cook therefore i am

Si

 

Got my nickname from Tag Teams "wooomp There it is" which was popular at the time of a particular Gig i was doing ( I am a drummer), Anyway guitarist snaps a string Base players stops, lead singer looks at me like F*ck do something...... i go into a sort of Funk type drum solo thingy, crowd starts chanting "can u digit can you digit" The solo i was playing was based on the song you see which just popped into me edd, since then anyone who knows me (they were at the gig as i only know a few people hee hee) has called me DIGGY.....taa daa!!!!

Mark

 

Something to with me being under tall, by about 6 feet.

Barge came about when FHM [I think] ran an thing on gut BARGEING contests done by big round Germans.

Within hours of the mag coming out I had the nick name & its stuck.

my mum still call me Stuart though !!!

 

used to call myself tatgun couple of years ago, abbreviation of tattoo gun, on chat rooms etc. but my mate used to call me spudgun to take the p155, he thought it was funny, and its stuck ever since.

 

AWD - fairly explanatory I suppose...

Also means I can gatecrash any thread that mentions all wheel drive and ask them why they're talking about me...

 

Cos I drive like one

Nothing to do with working in the motor trade!!

AKA - David

 

A certain magazine article titled the picture of the car under full chat...

"Puff The Magic Wagon, lives in the sea...la la la la... ermm..."

so as we were rubbing the cossie boys faces in it ( ) changed my username to wind 'em up

Besides, its much more interesting than JamesH

A legend was born...

 

Guys in the office called me this when I first got my scoob.
Something to do with driving a Wacky Racers Turbo Terrific

Pete

So there...

.. cross me and you'll find out why!

Seriously though.. Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery*. My mother was a fifteen-year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy... the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess in the insane lament. My childhood was typical... summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds... pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my *********. There really is nothing like a shorn *******... it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it.

.. and I have a tendancy to get p1ssed on tequila and then bic razor my head!

GranTurismo,

My parents were hippies in the sixties who loved playstation games.

My full name is GranTurismo Doom Hendrix Edwards.

oh, and I like the game as well.

 

Got my nickname on my year out (years full time employment) at University 5 years ago, first day, walks through the office door, obviously looking quite a bit younger than I do now, round'ish glasses and blond hair...... "F%$K me it's the Milky Bar Kid". 3/4 of the company only knew me as Milky from then on, it stuck/reared its head at each company I've been at.

Darren/Milky

 

Its all in the number of the beast

(And nothing to do with overweight,overpriced and under engineered cars from Lamborghini)

And sometimes anonymity is a good thing when you spend too much time on this bbs

 

Anyone like to hazard a guess at mine ?
I did explain it a while ago but search is down so no cheating ?

Answers on a postcard please.

Sent on a trip to Chicago to fix some network problems... The yanks weren't too happy a Brit was coming over to teach 'em how

When I walked into the office the usual 22 stone, longbeard in an old Meatloaf tour t-shirt shouts "hey its the limey lan cat!"

I was lancat for the rest of the week, even though I fixed the problem in a couple of hours

 

Being a fan of the Sunday BBC1 light hearted drama series set in Ireland, I adapted the village name to suit a BBS relating to Japanese products.

LOL and I thought bestiality was illegal in the UK these days - or do they still allow that sort of thing in Golders Green?

 

is robski wacky?

Well it isnt. My real name is Robert Skinner, during the times of Normski on BBC2, someone noticed that the first 3 chars of first and second name was rob & ski

hence robski was born

robski

 

....well a long long time ago....whe I was at school...I was sitting drinking a Rum with a M8 or 2...and as kids (sorry young adults do) we were working out anagrams of teachers and fellow students/kids names...

...cutting a longish story short...we found out that an anagram of "Tom Butler" (my name obviously ) is "Rum Bottle"...and from that day forth all my M8's called me "Rum"...

...Rum is my alias for everything.. and considering both of the above i.e. love of the drink etc it turns out to be quite apt

Thats my wee story.

Cheers

Tom
