What's new

Where does you name/GT/handle/SC originate from?

JesterSMX

It's too laggy to poke...
First aol screen name from mid 90's. I had just been introduced to the wide world of decorative novelty waterpipes for tobacco use only and my first one was a brand that used a Jester as its logo. Its been my tag for 20 years. Jesus... Maybe I should grow up... Nah...

Well TL was the very first username I ever had when I joined my first forum. Reptile has always been my favorite MK character and the name itself is kinda...paradoxy when you think of it pertaining to him. So I dig it.

My PSN is Orgogami. Orgo is my last name, so I made it a play on origami because I'm just versatile like that. :cool:

Also, Bend Me, Shape Me is like, one of my favorite oldie songs ever.
 

Gesture Required Ahead

Get on that hook
I learned every character in MK9 and would play them for fun but I mean I didn't have a character I took seriously with a good d4 other than like sub
BS I remember playing you for like a week straight before I stopped playing online and all we played was Reptile/Raiden vs Mileena.

I even thought your handle was it is because of Mileena

Assuming this isn't a troll that's a badass name you have there. I like unique or uncommon names. Your parents are godlike. I have a friend who named his children after characters an example being his son Tenchi. It works honestly. I'll like my have a say in my kids first or middle name if I ever have any.
Na no troll here dude, and thank you. Most of my friends say its no different than names like john or matt once you get used to it lol That's awesome though, I assume its Tenchi as in Tenchi Muyo?

Zoidberg from futurama, my favorite TV series of all time.

747 like Boeing 747, because he is also fly as fuck.
Impeccable taste, good sir.

My friends and I are dressing up as the Planet Express crew for our annual Halloween bash this year. I've got Dr. Z covered. And I tried to convince my parents to let me dress them up as Farnsworth and Mom since they're coming too, but that was a no-go. :(
 
It comes from my fascination with the Symbiotes of Marvel Comics – Spider-Man-related characters like Venom and Carnage. The Symbiotes are goopy, liquidy aliens that enhance their hosts with superhuman abilities, and they feed off of the host's adrenaline and certain brain chemicals.
Ordinarily, the Symbiotes exhaust their hosts of these things and leave them to die, but the Venom Symbiote was different in that it wanted to find a permanent host. In some Marvel realities, this led to Venom's exile from its homeworld.


(But, I need to brush up on my Mahvel knowledge, so take that last sentence with a grain of salt.)

My ways of thinking are altogether quite alien (or at least certainly odd) to most. The fragments I commonly display are mostly agreeable, while the withdrawn fragments are more subjective and are likely (varying chance) to cause disagreement or debate/argument. I am naturally reclusive, to the point where even my closest companions find it difficult to get into the innermost sections of my mind.

I try my best to maintain a cordial attitude, even around the TYM forums.
This has led to some calling me "Onee-chan": a Japanese term for "big sister". It is a suitable title.
 

JJV Phoenix

I'm not Vak goddamnit
My GT is a play on my first name. When I moved from Brooklyn, NYC to middle-of-nowhere Alabama as a teenager, most of the other kids had never met a Jewish kid before so they started calling me by the name and it stuck. Thinking of changing it on XBL because *surprise*, I get a lot of anti-Semitic bullshit for it, even though I don't practice.

The JJV in my TYM name is my initials + roman numeral 5, my lucky number. The "Phoenix" is from when I was in an accident at 16 and they thought I'd never walk again, and my physical therapist was OBSESSED with the mythology of the Phoenix so his mantra with his patients was "Be the Phoenix! Rise from the ashes!". Kinda cheesy but it stuck with me.

I GOT HANDS

Official Infrared Scorp wid gapless Wi-Fi pressure
Was playing GTA5 as the black guy, went to the Grove Street equivalent, tried to mosey in on a circle of gang members who didn't know me, got some awkward looks but they resumed chatting, next thing my character decides to inform them that he has hands, as you'd expect in real life they pulled out their pistols and shot the living shit out of me. One of the dumbest things I've seen, but had me dying cause the REALISM, so it became a little catchphrase of mine and my girlfriend for when someone is trying to pick a ridiculous fight that they don't really stand a chance of winning, usually seen on movies or playin video games. Seemed suitable for FG handle

Plus on block.
This isn't actually my name or account.


I inherited it after savagely beating the previous owner to death with my bare hands and absorbing his life force.

Everything that was once his is now mine, I have assimilated his very essence.

I'd assume the same happened to the holder of the title before him and probably even before that guy. Alas, I am now gifted/cursed to carry the burden of this name and all that comes with it, until an opponent far fiercer than I comes and rips it from my cold dead hands.

I AM NOT THE FIRST AND I WILL NOT BE THE LAST.
 
JustPressingButtons = tried to be slick with a TYM tag and couldn't think of anything at the time. This tag alone also adopted names like PeanutButterJelly and JustLickingButtholes lol.

KylinnElmer = I made this when I was like 12 to play on my own account to play Modern Warfare 2. I stole the first part of the name off some guy in a Xat chat room and I thought it was cool. I plugged my actual name at the end cause why not.

EhhWhyKnottt = couldn't think of much so I just thought of saying ehh why not and make a new tag. My main hidey for black ops 1 too.
