whoops . as i was mowing the lawn today i was just think about some of the funny/creative usernames on here and i stopped midway, came in and started this topic. guess i got in my zone and just couldnt wait to hear the storys behind them. so i didnt even think to do a search to see if there was already a topic. sorry guys. is there anyway we can merge the two?


p.s. pretty good backrounds as i expected :lol:

 

[Buck Masterson]

I used to be a Pro Wrestler. My Gimmick name was Buck Masterson, the sophisticated redneck.

 

[blacksheep]

Nothing exciting or very interesting about mine. I've just always been a bit of a black sheep in life. I also used to really love watching "Black Sheep Sqaudron". Pappy was cool. 8)

 

[Tommy Atoms]

I have worked in an engineering garage for the last 16 years. Many of the people I work with have been my coworkers for many years and people tend to give you nicknames. I have never been able to get people to call me just Tom, its always Tommy,which I dont mind cause it makes me feel young. One day a good friend said whats that song by tommy two time called? I replied "do you mean Tommytwotone? It kinda became something he would say when walking by and soon others heard him saying it so it just kinda stuck as my shop nickname. I dont mind and Im glad they dont call me Twotone cause growing up,I really hated the 867-5309 Jenny song.

 

[gashuffy63]

Watched a cheesy Afternoon Special years ago about the hazards of huffing paint and gasoline, and I have a few Huffy bikes hanging around so I came up with a lame pun as a name. Cheers

 

[Markm]

first name, last initial....lame

 

[SimpleMan]

Skynyrd fan 8)

35 years in the Bicycle business thus the name Bicyclerick

 

[chukndatruk]

well, I guess the picture tells it all, my name is chuck and I drive a truck

I would rather ride this at the beach, but when I'm on the road I ride my trasher bike

 

[Ratfink1962]

<<< Ratfink... as a tribute to Roth, and 1962... the year I was born.

 

[Hammond Eggz]

Well, I'm a bit of a smart@$$, and I like puns and plays-on-words, so I usually try to come up with names for forums that sound like real names, but are really just words that work together. Like "Justin Tyme", for example (go ahead, say it out loud... :lol: ).
Thus Hammond Eggz - "ham and eggs" - I'm running an avatar now with a picture of them, since people were PMing me as if my first name was Hammond (sorry, guys!).

 

[sean138]

Sean is my first name and 138 comes from a Misfits song. "We are 138"

 

[dangratsdan]

Dangratsdan
The name is a spinoff of a nick name given to me by a lady friend back in the mid 1970s, "Dangerous Dan". She came up with the name based on my mild non theatening personality and my need for speed ( I like to drive fast with out getting caught).
OK, her real nickname for me was "Dangerous Dan the Pizza Man", because of the above and back then I ate a lot of pizza, some 35 years later and 60 lbs heavier I dont eat as much pizza.
Man, I think Im hungry for a pizza,.. yea...black olive, mushroom, sausage...hmmmm....... to share with Terrible Terri where ever she may be...

[Greystoke]

Mine is similar to Greylock's. Grey haired old surfer. Hence Grey and Stoked. (Apologies to Edgar Rice Burrows- "Tarzan"). Though surf has been pretty flat here on Lake Michigan for the last couple of weeks. Fall's big waves are a coming. Brian

I've been skateboarding for going on ten years now, plus I collected old skateboards before I got into bikes. I saw this old Nash, and liked the name.
