Born and raised in the Adirondacks of Northern NY. Unfortunately for me, I don't live there anymore...just get to visit the area (around Lake Placid) once a year now. There are 5 stages to grief...I'm still in the denial stage that I was stupid enough to leave and seriously doubt I'll ever reach acceptance! :)
 
As you say "expert" breathe out and you get hhhhhhhhh-hexpert :cool:


BUT.................................... Can also be sarcastic

Expert=Someone who actually knows what they're doing
Hexpert=Someone who THINKS they know what they're doing ......................but doesn't
 
Rootmepls:
Root Me Please

Started using this name over at xda when I first started looking into Rooting my phone and flashing a ROM.

Of course is you do a Google image search for "Root me Please" you find a semi-NSFW image. That is not the translation I was going for.
 
Mine is from work. 24 years on the NYSE trading floor as a specialist clerk, arbitrage phone clerk, and finally as a specialist. When I first began on the trading floor I was a summer intern, filling out my resume and earning a few bucks until my slot in Marine Corps OCS/Flight opened up. Everybody got a nickname and mine became "Rambo" since I was joining the military. The Marines never happened for me (less than perfect eyesight ruled me out of the Flight program) and I ended up keeping my "temporary" summer job for 24 years. When I became a member of the NYSE and a specialist for my firm the last two digits of my trading badge were 47. When I got an AOL email account, rambo@aol.com was taken, so I had to add the digits. Rambo47 has been the online name I use ever since.
 
Mine has a bit of story behind it.

I used to be a (being modest) quite a good freestyle MC and went by the name of LayZbones......it got shortened to MC LayZ (pronounced like Jay-Z). I did quite a lot of battling in the UK way back - anyway I'm 32 now and married with kids so not touched a mic for a while seriously but all my usernames, PS3, gmail etc etc is LayZmc.

PS. I wasn't a 'rudeboy' wannabee or a 'rapper with attitude' just someone who liked ryming as an art form and had a knack for being able to freestyle quite well.
 
Jun is a made up word referring to a certain sound used in deathcore, metalcore and hardcore breakdowns. Example: "Hey man that breakdown in 'Skynet' that goes JUN JUN JUNNNNN JUN JUNNNNN is so br00tal!!"

Bringer is cause I bring the juns, as I play/write music, especially heavy music.
 
My name comes from the ghettofied way of saying "None of your business." The way I spell it also makes it look like some unusual foreign name.
 
Just a play on words of dynomite and my name Dan. Back in 1999 or 2000 when I first thought of it I tried every combination to get it on hotmail, Danomite, Danomyte, Dan-o-mite, they were all taken. I finally had to change the O to a Zero in order for it to accept it. Then I just ended up using it for everything.
 
I'm very direct to the point of being blunt. Some times others confuse my directness as being inciting but try to argue that point with some one already offended. My name describes my personality perfectly.
 
DTG66. Short for DrivetheGreen66 (DXF, eBay, PSN, XBL, etc.) which is what I'm known by everywhere else. Just wouldn't fit here.
