[Closed] Where does your username come from?

Mine came from this video,

Not Safe For Work

It seemed like a good idea at the time (clearly I was right - I have NO idea!)

I keep meaning to change it as it could mean other things but somehow I have become attached to the name now...

Rachel

Sorry TSY 😳

Umm, I should make up an exciting story. But really it's an anagram of my name.

I am similarly streamlined.

I was terminally bored

I should change it

Nickname at primary school was Cat because I was told I look like a cat by a girl that used to pinch me. It stuck, typed Cat as a player name on a computer game at a friends house, when I escaped the enemy it said Catflees, so it's been cat or Catflees since then.

S'ok Colonel... you passed the test.

I'm going to try and unscramble your name now.

Alex??

A great track by The Slits, off the Cut LP.

Yossarian: Is Orr crazy?
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: Of course he is. He has to be crazy to keep flying after all his close calls he's had.
Yossarian: Why can't you ground him?
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: I can, but first he has to ask me.
Yossarian: That's all he's gotta do to be grounded?
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: That's all.
Yossarian: Then you can ground him?
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: No. Then I cannot ground him.
Yossarian: Aah!
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: There's a CATCH?
Yossarian: A catch?
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: Sure. Catch-22. Anyone who wants to get out of combat isn't really crazy, so I can't ground him.
Yossarian: Ok, let me see if I've got this straight. In order to be grounded, I've got to be crazy. And I must be crazy to keep flying. But if I ask to be grounded, that means I'm not crazy anymore, and I have to keep flying.
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: You got it, that's Catch-22.
Yossarian: Whoo... That's some catch, that Catch-22.
Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: It's the best there is.

yossarian: is that from a book? What's it called?

It's a good answer, but not quite right.

I like setting fire to things. Including myself.

I'm a Swedish Whore.

Started seeing a chap who was nicknamed Toasty. His mates started referring to me as ‘Missus Toast’, and when I started playing World of Warcraft I took that name for my first character. Ended up sticking with it, with the occasional 'Mrs' variation after getting married.

My high school nickname and original online nickname Riggers was based on my surname, but it did get a bit confusing because my brother got called it as well by his mates, as does my nephew.

Could be worse, I've got one mate whose nickname is 'Peebz', because fifteen years ago, when walking home, someone said, "What's that squeaking noise?". It was his shoes, but what he actually said was, "It's the sound of my plastic bollocks rubbing together". Henceforth he was known as Plastic Bollocks, or PB, or Peebs.

Because I had one.

Colon Waxel?

Started and ran an F1 site of a similar name back in the mid-90s. Did a load of stuff online under that name and when I bought a domain name for personal use, atlas was not available so it morphed to atlaz. Boring story.

One of my favourite plants. Tall, spikey and has the ability to be self-sufficient (to a small degree). Attributes I'm very unlikely to possess...

From a shared house at Uni, neighbours owned a deviant and very sneaky Tomcat with huge and overactive testicles and spray glands. It sprayed most of our house - bikes, motorbikes, crapped in the garden - sprayed that too.

It was named Roger one drunken evening after the collective punishment we decided it needed if we ever caught it.

We found it doing a manhole impression on Bromyard Rd,but decided feline necrophilia was taking things a bit far so threw it over the neighbours fence.

In tribute to him I adopted the name on the first forum I used and it's stuck!

If those two are really the same person then, well, I'm Edukator and Solo too.

I usually go by another "handle" on forums etc, but thought something punning on the world of MTB would be a rite larf.

It only makes sense if you aren't Welsh.

Unfortunate accident with the lab mascot and a protein crosslinker, hence Beagleboy. You should see me go after rabbits though. 😉
