....are the origins of your screen name?

Some of them are obvious but I can't figure out alot of them.

Yellow Fever:

I was on a political forum and lurking before I joined and they were talking about viruses so I named myself Yellow Fever.

They also had a small sports section and I confessed I was a Laker homer and some chick said "No wonder you're yellow fever" and it kinda stuck. Should've told her Lakers' colors are purple and gold. :lol

Xylus is a name I conjured up when I was 13. I was writing some anthropomorphic fantasy story and that was the name of my main character. I use it for everything now.

I'm named after the longtime radio announcer for the Cavaliers (and yes, Lake Show fans, he's just as good as Chick... just in a different way.)

I made this name around the time Iron Man was coming out. I still haven't watched that movie.

I use Mando323 on most other places and things. Mando is short for my name, Armando. And the 323 is for my Area code

Whoa...didn't know that.

Always thought your name was a shortened "Tim for MVP" seeing as how you're as much of a Spurs homer as I am a Laker homer. :lol

I invented mine when I was young, stupid and new to the internets/marijuana..... and it's what stuck when I thought I was signing up here to troll for the duration of a single Spurs/Jazz game. It was supposed to be a sly reference to wanting to play basketball. 4500 posts later? :rolleyes I loathe my handle and I tried to get Kori to shorten it to just balli, which I like, but she was either too inundated with mass pm's or ignored me. Oh well.

I was in a live hip hop band in college called Medieval Kineval. My emcee name was Joe Jam. My real name isn't Joe or Joseph but a lot of people used to call me Joe because my real name is a little difficult to pronounce. I use Joe Jam or joejam414 as a username on a lot of websites. I'm not quite sure why I changed it for this site, but I took the Jam part and added Stone. Some fans call the Pistons the "Stones" as a nickname. So that's how I got JamStone.

What is so difficult about pronouncing Joseph?

In fact, I will call you Joseph from now on

Growing up, I went by my second name. It's "Deosil." Take a guess on how to pronounce it by giving me a phonetic spelling. I'll let you know if you're right.

Nickname my cousin came up with. I had a concussion when I was 12 or so, and the doc gave me some meds that made me really sleepy. My cousin said I looked like a grandpa. We call grandpas 'Nono' where I'm from... so there you have it, I'm 'TheGrandpa' or, in Spanish, 'ElNono'.
The funny part is that both of my sisters call me by the nickname.

-----

As for me:


O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth,
That I am meek and gentle with these butchers!
Thou art the ruins of the noblest man
That ever lived in the tide of times.
Woe to the hand that shed this costly blood!
Over thy wounds now do I prophesy,
--- Which, like dumb mouths, do ope their ruby lips,
To beg the voice and utterance of my tongue ---
A curse shall light upon the limbs of men;
Domestic fury and fierce civil strife
Shall cumber all the parts of Italy;
Blood and destruction shall be so in use
And dreadful objects so familiar
That mothers shall but smile when they behold
Their infants quarter'd with the hands of war;
All pity choked with custom of fell deeds:
And Caesar's spirit, ranging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice
Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war;
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.

I like Shakespeare. A lot.

Yeah, I laughed out loud at that one, too. Some folks resort to online name smack when they have nowhere else to go, but at least that one was clever.

When they added seats to Hemisfair Arena, they had to put in these giant columns to hold up the roof, and there are seats that are behind those columns, obstructing the view of the court. My first NBA game was a pair of tickets I won on the radio, and they were obstructed view seats. The Spurs lost to the Rockets, AJ was the MVP of the game (he played for Houston), and I'll never forget it. I really became a Spurs fan that night.

whottt
05-08-2009, 02:56 AM
I got pissed off at the trolls at the WOAI board and wanted to piss them off in return. I figured I'd do that by being even more obnixious than they were. Outtroll them if you will...I was pissed off and wanted to be obnoxious...the name whottt seemed like a good place to start. The 3t's are kind of annoying, as is the general sound when you say the name whottt if you say it right, it definitely is a pissed off asshole kind of sounding name...at least to me it is. So I made it and went after the trolls by being as big of an asshole as I possibly could, right down to the name...did it for a while and discovered I couldn't beat all those trolls at WOAI so I lost interest. Next thing I know that board was gone and SR had taken over and required you to log in to read the board and this was the nic that still worked, or maybe it didn't and I thought it would so I just used it when I re-registered. I did discover that I kind of enjoyed being an asshole and trolling those trolls...decided I enjoyed doing that...still do, kind of.

I seldom use the same nic at different message boards and usually make them up on a lark, but have probaby used the whottt nic more than any other nic I've made at multiple boards...probably used it at 3 boards.

The 50 I added on a long time ago for you know who. Use holcs or holcs50 for a lot of different forums.
