My first name is Dan, and I was born in 1980.
I was feeling very unimaginative....

About 13 or so years ago when I needed a username for web forum I didn't want to use my real name so I went with the first thing I saw:

These CD's were on my Uni desk:
[img] [/img]
Elliott - US Songs

[img] [/img]
Matchbox 20 - Yourself or Someone Like You

And it's stuck ever since.

I reckon you could be right. I'm going to have a look. What would be the best way to search for that thread? 8)

Len Hankie is an obscure character from a Monty Python sketch:

At 2 minutes in: 'Len Hankie: Chiropodist, Voyeur, Hen Teaser.'

I laughed so much the first time I saw it, that it's stuck in my head ever since.

Mine comes from a book called Tired etc by Chris Dangerfireld which may have struck a cord in my teens and stuck ever since.

Because I bought the domain name allthegear.net a few years ago and had a blog thing there for a while. Got bored and it no longer exists.

Was going to change it but thesouthernyeti thought it was suddenly very amusing this year, what with one thing and another, and I thought who am I to argue??

I'll borrow the shirt in the summer. It'll look pretty damn frozen coming out of a lake at the minute.

Yeah let's have a hug.

I reckon there's another one, phil might've started it. I'll find it tomorrow when I'm busy with the desk job.
Gotta go out and scare some tourists in the Southern Himalayas now.

Nickname from uni days to differentiate a number of Phil's - and not anything to do with a British traitor.

The make of a bike that I used to ride when I first started posting on bike forums, mixed with the surname of a legendary footballer.

Then had to put a 2 on the end when this place crashed.

dont think i've started a thread about user-names.... once considered a "what do you do in real life" thread but someone beat me to it and i saw the STW "ohhh you havent been here long, try using the forum search, you're an idiot, we dont like people who aren't local, i'd fight and die for your right to do so!" type reaction... so decided not to 😀

my username:

phil - my name
consequence - second half of band name, infinitely better than my real-life surname.

I tell a lie....
Mine stems from childhood when my nan came to stay with us one weekend. I walked into the kitchen and she was bent over only wearing her nighty.
I've been in shock ever since.
