Mine's fairly self explanatory. But it came from a friends first reaction to seeing The Shed. I've used it for 15+ years on different forums. One of the band forums where we meet up regularly first did the shortening to BBS, which happened here too.
On forum meet ups, and by those people who have become good friends, I'm known as Shed. Outside in the real world I'm not.

Because I poo in the woodsWe should hook-up.
Very niche...
Pimpmaster Jazz
Your name is forever in my head. At a former workplace we all had employee numbers that were also our log in for the computer system, payroll stuff, online training courses, all sorts of shit they made us do. Three 'random' letters and 6 numbers; mine was PJM11xx12 (better not reveal in case someone else works at the same place and the number's still live somewhere)
Oddly, it wasn't until just reading your reason why it came about I've just realised that your name is Pimpmaster jazz which would be PMJ, not PJM. Thus making my mnemonic utterly irrelevant.
Thankfully I'm over you now anyway so the discrepancy doesn't matter.
Can someone post a 'Cool Story, Bro' for me?
Shermer High is the school in The Breakfast Club, the greatest film ever made 🙂

A lot of my academic work centred on the Saxon world, and my ancestry is almost entirely drawn from the Germanic North. And I ride bikes.
Saxon + Rider = SaxonRider 8)

Die Fetten Jahre Sind Vorbei. A film about the Edukators.
It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.
First name Matt, second begins with a b. Always called it at school as a friend was Matt C. Someone already had mattb pre hack so I went with the bee & stuck with it post hack.
Exciting, huh?
Hopefully not really banned
Sometimes I worry that people take me far too seriously.
Is this a cunning plan to get Fred to reveal his her new name?
If you're alluding to who I think you're alluding to, then I don't think it is. Or at least, if it is, he's passed the Fredchdel Test thus far. At any rate, that user isn't a monumental pain in the harris. Spam-killing him and thus deleting his entire output for the last six months seems to have finally got the message across.
I expect I'll be proved wrong almost immediately now.
It's my real name...
... well maybe not, the title was bestowed upon me by a very dear friend (who passed away far too young, 12 years ago) who was known as the Earl of Cambridge (maybe not his real name either). It referred to where I lived at the time.
Joined up with the name I've used on forums since the year 'dot' (about 1995). Didn't visit for a while, and couldn't remember my passowrd, so re-registered in the name of a domestic pet.
Anyway, I'm really keen to find out if "Fathomer" originates from:
a) Fathom-er, as in one who fathoms things out;
OR
b) Fat-Homer - as in

That simple. Old forum name I've been using since the show started and just stuck with it as can't be arsed to think up a new one.
Though the joke is well worn (they stopped killing Kenny years ago, at least regularly).
As I say sometimes - I'm not dead (I think), and my name's not Kenny 😉
I'm sh1te at jumps
It's how my ex's 2 year old daughter used to describe me. I may be hairy but I don't think I'm scary.
Well, hello Mr Myrag
Hello, but it's M'yrag, Papa was Flemmish
Daughter called me this when she was about 3 or 4.
Kinda stuck.
Hello, but it's M'yrag,
Myrag was funnier in my head, but I'm a bit special like that.
Hello Mr M'yrag 🙂
When I joined my first internet forum it asked me for a username and I looked out the window and saw our regular blackbird. He had been visiting since he was a juvenile and had been dubbed 'scruffy'.
He was the first thing I saw so that was my name.
When I joined here I wanted a new user name, Scruffy was the name of the janitor in Futurama, and as we learned in Family guy the new janitor will be Sweepy.

I [i]knew[/i] it was something like that 🙂
I read the "curious incident of the dog in the night" I think it was in morzine (had read my book and CIDITN had been left in the chalet so I swapped as it looked the least crap book there) and thought it was brilliant/hilarious that your brain lied to you all the time.
saccades is the eye moving from fixed point to fixed, however the brain can't cope with the moving picture so it turns off/ignores what you see whilst the eye is moving and puts a nice picture of what it thinks is there instead (kinda).
A bit like when the A-team break into a place and put a polaroid over the security camera.
My old avatar name (manaic5) was a 1 off story in 2000ad that is a better name as a kid I feel. Saccades was pretty much untaken on the web too.

I feel I should. But I think really there is no good or easy explanation. It was just something that was in my head when I filled in the webform all those years ago and now I'm stuck with it...
Lady G - and there was me thinking you were related to Sir Nigel.
I'll leave you all to guess.

It's a cod gaelic version of my nickname Big Gordi - gordimhor
BJ was taken.
Cos it's what we all? hope for when going for a blast!!
An old employer, many years back, just as we were starting to use email and unable to access work server other than in the office(!), set up an email account for all staff of myname_outandabout at hotmail.com. When I left I just kept it as my email account.
Mine is a contraction of "why don't you deride her", because that is what I was saying to General Caulfield whilst I was setting up my profile on the site.
As an aside, I live close to [url= http://www.buildingsatrisk.org.uk/details/905225 ]this[/url]. Mind you, I didn't when I picked the name, but I kept cycling back and forth over the Corrieyairrack.
Real names Barry, get called Baz by some people. Years ago I worked with a guy who took great delight in carrying out suprise attacks on me to check my reflexes ( think Kato from The Pink Panther..). One day he hid in a service lift that I mistakenly thought was too small for a person to hide in, when I opened the door he launch at me shouting "bazwadah!". Use it a lot as it tends to be available as a username
My FIL used to say I'm like a squirrel. Long periods of inactivity and occasional frantic bursts of full-on action 🙂
I have feet
I like cheese
I rode a Spooky Bandwagon. Frame number was b329.
Sold it about 13 years ago...Matt Black with Green Marzocchi's. Who's got it, someone must have it lying in their garage!
It's a CNC machining centre I worked on many years ago.
