I've seen some really neat ones on here and was wondering if any one cared to share what their user name meant to them and how they came up with it. Why did you choose the icon that you chose?

Just curious :D

Hmm well Seeing as my name is Jeffery Thomas Johnson and I'm 25 years old, I have absolutely no idea where I came up with my user name; I think as with many things I just pulled it out of my big fat blindingly pale white (_|_). As far as my current icon, I like to make homophobic men uncomfortable by presenting them with a confusing, erotic man/woman picture so they question their own sexuality!

I admit to stalking you this time:P I was browsing through your questions to find yet another opportunity to be a dork. I assure you, I do not stalk you often dear, but I was extremely bored this time around. Honest!

Binary_Illusion

Binary_Illusion      When: 3 months ago
Mine was my sure name on a hacking forum when I was a hacker. Binary Illusion, I hide in binary(computer language, 1s and 0s) and I'm an illusion, you think I'm there, maybe I am maybe I'm not. But when your screwed, you know I was there, but you can't find me.

My more recent one, Crypt Cypher is conflicting, and more uplifting I think. Crypt means to lock or to make indecipherable. Cypher is the key, the solution to the cryptology. So I am the problem and the answer. The hacker, but a good hacker.

But yeah, Binary Illusion is literal meaning lol. I hide in your computer and am an illusion. I varied that with delusion when Illusion was taken up on some websites.
And I read how you came about yours xD Funny stuff lol. Those things are good btw :)

WeaponZero

WeaponZero      When: 4 months ago
When I bought my first car, a used 1986 Camaro Z28, my friends and I all decided to give our cars identical paint jobs and names that were more of a designation than a name. Naming rules stated that the name had to be a word followed by a number. I named my Camaro Weapon-0 cause I liked the sound of it, and since I liked it better with the 0 spelled out as Zero, I started using that as my username everywhere.

Question Asker Not gonna lie - that's pretty sweet :D - 4 months ago
Answerer Thanks. Oh, and the Icon is a recent picture of me wearing my wet-weather riding jacket. I own three: one for the extreme heat, one for the cooler weather that doubles as my winter coat, and this one that's waterproof/rainproof in case there's the chance of running into rain. I posted it because I lost a lot of weight recently (over 40 lbs) and wanted to post a recent pic of the not-as-fat me. - A minute ago - 4 months ago
Question Asker That is totally awesome - I also remembered when you posted the question about the jackets. I think you picked well :D

Grats on losing all the weight! It takes a lot of hard work and motivation/determination :D You definitely have a right to be proud :) - 4 months ago
Answerer Actually I wasn't able to purchase the one from the poll because they ran out of the ones in my size before I was able to order. I guess that's how closeout sales work, huh? - 4 months ago
Question Asker Regardless - it still looks nice on you :D - 4 months ago

Toban_Frost
3201  
Toban_Frost      When: 4 months ago
Truthfully the name "Toban" is a slang for us that borders on a slur. It's referring to Manitobans. I decided to use it. I have a curious fascination with frost and cold things.

Anyway I used it for the name of a character once about 8 years ago, and had plans of writing stories about the guy, but the stories became too complex, and there was plot holes and any attempt to patch them up usually opened up a new one and I had nobody to bounce ideas off of. Eventually I decided not to write these stories.

Blah, so now I am just using it for the occasional screen name.
Do you agree?

Question Asker I'd never heard of that slur before - what is it a slur for? Canadians? - 4 months ago
Answerer As I explained. it's for Manitobans. People who live in Manitoba. Manitoba is a province in Canada. Provinces are like states. The way I've usually heard it was from people who came from Saskatchewan or Ontario (two neighbouring provinces) and usually uttered something like "you f_cking toban" out of anger. - 4 months ago
Question Asker Well - sad day - Chose to embrace it? I still like your username :D

you should keep the stories going - with all your background knowledge in comic books - bet you'd be able to come up with something pretty awesome. I hope you didn't dump them completely :( - 4 months ago
Answerer No but I think I need another writer to bounce some of my ideas. Somebody who can help me clear up things like plot holes and stuff. - 4 months ago

cun7n1nja

cun7n1nja      When: 4 months ago
My username is more of a joke than anything else. I made it up a few years ago. I replaced some of the letters with numbers, because I think using '1337-speak' is really funny, and I'm kind of making fun of people who are serious about using it. So it's actually c.untninja, which is meant to be interpreted however you'd like, because it doesn't have any real meaning, haha.

My icon is just a picture of me. It's like a year old, but I recently decided I liked it and figured I should use it for something. Showing my face on the internet isn't a big deal to me.
