Where did your screename come from??

My first name and first letter of last name. The 7 was my baseball number when I played and 23 was my football number. Had this aol email since 2001 when I was a sophomore in high school.
Jesus. AOL emails existed when you were a sophomore in high school? :(

My name is Colin and I am 6'8.
Cozilla - I have a buddy named Bret on Wylie off of Shopton Road. Used to be out there once a month or so - but moved jobs. Too bad! If I get up CLT way I'll holler. Love the nickname...mine is She-Ra for similar reasons.
 
I must have the most boring screen name on the forum. My initials plus an extra h just because this forum requires at least 4 characters for a screen name.
 
Graduated in '96 from East Carolina...home of the Pirates.

Greenville is a great college town. Anyone else a Pirate?

If you feel the need to change your name, all you have to do is ask and I'm sure the mods will oblige.
 
Not good at coming up with witty or unusual names. Still have not come up with a name for my boat after 3 years. My initials are BM and in the military phonetic alphabet that would be Bravo Mike.
 
Unisys was a big deal when I started into the tech industry so I flipped it backward and it kinda just stuck. I use this and "Mantab" which was namtab (batman backward) but I thought Mantab sounded cooler.
 
shoulda coulda woulda...

heard a good one yesterday, Can't remember the guy's name, but he went into Starbucks and ordered his usual coffee....seems the usual barista at this Starbucks was a real jerk the way he treated people so he wanted to get him. When he placed his order, they asked his name and he replied, "Penis" - he pronounced it Pah neice - girl asked, "Really?" he said, I'm from France. The girl looked at him funny, but rules are rules...she wrote it on the cup. Knowing that the barista was about to serve up his coffee he just sat back and waited....there it was on the counter and he could see the guy's lips moving....thinking to himself, go ahead, say my name. The barista calls out, "Vente drip for Penis? Every head in the place spun around!

I gotta try that sometime. :cool:

Thanks, I love good humor!

Funny, All I get called at home is, "Short Round", Perhaps on a good night, "Incoming" and then she runs away.:(
 
Well for me it was either this or "The Squirt Twins." I'm really politically correct and worry a lot about offending prudes, so instead I chose to keep it clean with DoubleThrust.
 
I figured since we are almost at a 1000 members I would give this thread some new life......Probably a few hundred members that haven't even seen this thread since the last post on 3/17/14

So lets hear it !!!
 
I have played Unreal Tournament, a first person shooter game, since 1999. I run/own the UT server =FSB= (8.9.30.171:7777) and have since 2004, (as a courteous headsup..that address can only be accessed with the UT game but please visit if you play). Hence my two likes combined into Unreal Yammi. On the other forum I used Unreal 98 Exciter and that was a bit lacking foresight.
 
Made up the screen name when I joined YJB a few years back, use same name here.
Half the letters is an abbreviation for my home waters. Other half is my initials.
 
My usual screen name is scuba_ref. I officiate football (up to semi pro) and basketball (up to DIII college) and the money I make doing that pays for scuba diving trips. Unfortunately, I apparently wasn't paying attention very well when I signed up for the forum and ended up with my first and last name as my screen name. :banghead: Now that is a lame screen name story!
 
in 1999 i joined an online ww2 dog fighting game.. the game assigned names to put on your plane.. The assigned me..... "The Bronze_Lemon"!! and had it boldly written on the side of the plane so all the other players could see it... I shortened it to Bronze and over the years most sign ins want some kind of number with it.. so the _10 was added.. Bronze_10..
 
My initials (JL)
i used to always have jeeps... My favorite Jeep i ever had/rebuild was a 1980 CJ-7
(jlcj7 was my screen name on a jeep forum i used to be on)
 
We have a beach house on Westbeach in Gulf Shores, AL. Several friends started calling me that when they would come over and see me hanging out in the water all day.
