What's Your Nick?

[yousickf'ingbastard]

I always wanted to know how you guys picked your names. I picked yousickf'ingbastard (http://www.mv.helsinki.fi/mapaavon/imgs/hetkenkuva/vomit.jpg)because that's what I am. Always have and always will be damn it! :D

[zooworker]

I picked mine because I feel like I work in a fucking Zoo sometimes.Retail is like that you know.:cool:

[rk237]

rk237.
Created as a throwaway nick for IHBB. ;)
rk is just two random letters.

However, 237 converted to hexadecimal is my first name (just in case there was still anyone out there who thought maybe I wasn't completely a geek).
For this reason, I often use 237 for things.

[Antithesys]

I've used this name for about ten years in pretty much every online thing I do. It was once cool to have a specific "handle" for your internet persona, something that described you, and it needed to sound mystic and have lots of "Y"s where the vowels should be.

[yousickf'ingbastard]

and i thought you chose that name because it has the word "tit" in it

[OzMan]

Do I really need to explain mine??:rolleyes:

;)

I could always draw you a map. Oh wait..... look up and to the left:D

[Woodstock]

Mine is the name of a bird.

[zooworker]

Mine is the name of a bird.
And I thought it was after a concert......;)

[yousickf'ingbastard]

I did too. I didn't know there was a woodstock bird

Peanuts comic strip.......

[yousickf'ingbastard]

i was expecting like a giant wingless birds on the grounds of the amazon rainforest

[rk237]

And I thought it was after a concert......;)

What do you think inspired Charles Schulz in his character naming? ;)

[Woodstock]

I did too. I didn't know there was a woodstock bird

mines from a nickname given by friends.

mines from a nickname given by friends.
Sp what does the name stand for?:confused:

[sar94pga]

SAR- my initials in my name. 94pga is the make and model of my car that i had 8 years ago.

HEY, it was the first car i bought and paid for all by myself. i was proud.

too bad i cant change it now. this is the only thing i use it for now.

[Morbid Angel]

I like the death metal band of the same name. As simple as that. \../

[SL_600]

When I started lurking this sight before I joined, one of the things I found to be funny was some of the handles and tag-lines. For myself I wanted to choose something both witty and memorable. Sadly, nothing came to mind. So I thought about something with the letters SL in it since I was an SL at the time and added the 600 for prestige. Then chose the avatar so it wouldn't be lost on anyone.

[Jah]

my nick came from Ras Tafari's God. It suits my egomaniacal and narcissistic nature.

[DraconianSM]

I was at a DBR when a store manager (who no longer is with Blockbuster) used "draconian" to describe my management style.

I took his comment in reference to this definition:
Draco (IPA pronunciation: [ˈdreikoʊ]; from Δράκων, IPA ['drakɔːn]) was the first law scribe of ancient Athens, Greece, seventh century B.C. The laws, transcribed in 621 BC when he was archon eponymous, were particularly harsh: the death penalty was the punishment for even minor offenses. For example, any debtor whose status was lower than that of his creditor was forced into slavery. The punishment was more lenient for those owing debt to a member of a lower class. The stringency of these laws gave rise to popular modern expressions such as "draconian punishment", "draconian laws", and "draconian measures."


Trekgirl wrongly thought my name was reference to this guy:
http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a37/DraconianSM/draco.gif

[igniteice]

igniteice comes from the terms "ignite" and "ice" ... which I clevery thought up about 8 years ago and have stuck with since. Not really hard to understand the concept behind "ignite ice."

[koi]

I choose my name because its a fish and I love fishing :D

[OzMan]

I choose my name because its a fish and I love fishing :D

Oh, come on.

We all KNOW the story's MUCH better than that;)

[Beer_Monkey]

Mine is one I thought up especially for this forum, but I use it everywhere now except one forum I still visit from time to timewhere I still post under my real nickname.

I just thought if I joined up under my real nick Id get fired for being here. So I thought of somthing that sorta describes me best.

[sar94pga]

I choose my name because its a fish and I love fishing :D

[the boy wonder uk]

My Nickname for my little boy. So why not!!

[AmazonBitch]

I actually had a much more benign name when I first started posting. It lasted about a week until I got into a catfight with one of the regulars and decided I needed a more badass name for the staging. It stuck because it fits.

Seems more likely to me that it is the literary representation of the sound you make most often...

LOL - I often received the same criticism. However, in the next breath I was told how my store was beautiful, efficient, and much more productive than before me. I wonder why the DL's never managed to put 2+2 together... They were alway more concerned with the fact that the worst employees throught I was "mean". :cool:

[koi]

Oh, come on.

We all KNOW the story's MUCH better than that;)

No that really is the truth but also its because of my love of fish porn :D

[the boy wonder uk]

fish spawn?

[sar94pga]

Koi (鯉 from Japanese ''koi'') are ornamental domesticated varieties of the common carp ''Cyprinus carpio''. If you travel to Japan and tell your friends that you love koi, they might invite you to eat the dull gray fish that inhabits the waters of the islands: In Japanese, the word ''koi'' simply means ''carp''. But tell them you appreciate ''nishikigoi'' (錦鯉: "brocade carp") and they'll lead you and your camera to the pond in the garden. This article is about nishikigoi, and uses the English word ''koi'' to refer to the beautiful fish.

While a Chinese book of the Western Jin Dynasty (4th century) mentions carp with various colors, koi breeding is generally held to have begun around the 17th century in the Niigata prefecture of Japan. Farmers working the rice fields would notice that some carp would be more brightly colored than others, capture them, and raise them (when normally the brighter colors would doom the fish to be more likely eaten by birds and other predators). By the 19th century, a number of color patterns had been established, most notably the red-and-white ''kohaku'', but the outside world did not become aware of the degree of development until 1914, when the Niigata koi were exhibited in Tokyo, and some of them presented to Crown Prince Hirohito. At that point, interest in koi exploded throughout Japan and later worldwide. Koi are now commonly sold in most pet stores, with higher-quality fish available from specialist dealers.



Koi varieties are distinguished by coloration, patterning, and scalation. Butterfly koi, developed in the 1980s and notable for their long and flowing fins, are actually hybrids with Asian carp, and not considered true koi.

[Adornedatom]

I was trying to come up with a username for Xbox live, but everything I tried had already been taken. (I have no imagination you see) so eventually I hit random and this name came up. Kind of a boring story really. :(

[Lomithrandel]

I used to play D&D in high school, this was one of my favourite characters names, and I have been using it ever since.

[Blockbusterblonde]

It's not rocket science. I work at Blockbuster and I'm blonde.


and Blockbusterbitch was already taken ;)

[brantheman]

"Brantheman" is a nickname my dad gave me when I was little. Now it's what I use for my online alias everywhere. Funny thing is, Brandon is my middle name. My first name is actually Keith.

*glances at HardcoreKeith* :)

Can you imagine how many spelling mistakes I would have made if I typed that :D
but yes that is why my name is koi because I am a big golden fish :D

[koi]

It's not rocket science. I work at Blockbuster and I'm blonde.

[URBAN_COWBOY]

[AmazonBitch]

Did I miss something? I know what carpet is - but what the fuck are "cuffs"? :confused:

[Lomithrandel]

Probably armpit hair I would think.

[EVFNazi]

Was given to me by my store manager many years ago before she became a DLIT and moved on. Had something to do with the number of calls to Dallas about my absolute commitment to the extended viewing fee policy and the belief that people should honor their commitments, take responsibility for their actions and be able to read a clock. Now it's so old and out of fashion as my wardrobe. But it brings back fond memories of educational opportunites shared with my customers.

[MissHailstorm]

Did I miss something? I know what carpet is - but what the fuck are "cuffs"? :confused:

I've heard the analogy "collars and cuffs" and "curtains and carpets", but not "cuffs and carpets". :D I think they are the same thing.

[Aphrodite]

Yeah. :p

Koi used the phrase 'collar and cuffs'
Cowboy used the phrase 'drapes and carpet'

I assume thats why she said cuffs AND carpet - 2 questions, 2 replies

[koi]

I think she is blonde on top but the feild has been ploughed :D

[Blockbusterblonde]

3 pages on my bikini line is 3 pages too many ;)

[koi]

[Blockbusterblonde]

[koi]

Ok pic of me getting sent :D :D

[Blockbusterblonde]

It better fucking not be a naked one.

[koi]

[Aphrodite]

No, its a worm :p

[koi]

[OzMan]

3 pages on my bikini line is 3 pages too many ;)

Au contraire.

The more the better, about you having less.....

or something like that;)

*glances at HardcoreKeith* :)

As for mine, I used to be really dracon...er, strict about policy, EVFs, and Rewards sales, so my coworkers gave me the name and I started wearing it on my namebadge (which was at the time mandatory lanyard style).

That's since mostly gone out the window, but I still like to give jackass customers a hard time, so I do have my moments.

[Aphrodite]

Is your avatar an 'actual pic' of your old namebadge?

[Beer_Monkey]

I used to have a badge that said cUNT

[Aphrodite]

LOL :D

Does that mean c:nt used to have one that said Beer_Monkey ?? ;)

[Beer_Monkey]

dunno

but cunts badge would have said C:nt jg Cunt

[Aphrodite]

I dont really wear my name badge very often..


..and when I do, I wear a different name because I hate it when the customers call you by your name as if they know you.

[yousickf'ingbastard]

well sometimes when your drunk and you accidently sleep with a customer and then they are all like hey, you fucked me and left. and you are all like hey, i was drunk and you seemed better looking then.

[Aphrodite]

Yeah, I hate it when that happens :D

[yousickf'ingbastard]

my night wouldn't be done without a crazy stalker chick claiming i slept with her the night before

[Aphrodite]

..well you should really stop putting those pills in their drinks ;)

[yousickf'ingbastard]

those pills were in those drinks prior to me putting them in their myself. so i am the innocent bystander here :rolleyes:

[Aphrodite]

A likely story :rolleyes:

A call for a lie detector test ;)

[yousickf'ingbastard]

i can't, i have a disability. i'm slightly retarded, ok, totally retarded :mad:

[Aphrodite]

Thats okay, all you need to do is connect some electrodes to your brain.

It doesnt hurt.......honest :p

[yousickf'ingbastard]

last time i heard that i was pulling wicked mistresses barbs out of my dick :eek:

[Aphrodite]

Well, if you insist on sleeping with these whores, its bound to happen.

[yousickf'ingbastard]

i got slapped too many times by asking the ladies if they were whores before i slept with them. perhaps seeing if they take money after sex will prove my theory. :cool:

[Aphrodite]

Guy asks a girl if she will sleep with him for a million dollars and she says yes. Then he asks her if shed sleep with him for a dollar and she says 'What do you think I am, a whore?'
He said 'Weve already established that, we just need to work out the rate :p'

My version is MUCH better:D

Guy asks a woman if she'll sleep with him for a million dollars. She thinks about it, and says OK.

He then asks if she'll sleep with him for a dollar.

She says "What kind of woman do you think I am??"

He replies "Oh, we've already established that, now we're just negotiating the price"

[yousickf'ingbastard]

My going rate is $5. Tips are welcomed but STDs are not.

Is it true that you've already collected the entire set??:D
