The wife many years ago in a rage attacked me with an axe (over the telly remote - I hid it), lucky it was too heavy for her to swing it effectively and she's completely unco, I ended up with one severely bruised arm and a few holes in the wall.
Haha.... My wife, then girl friend, in a rage once threw a mobile ph at me from across the room. Back then the phones were bigger, she was a very good swimmer (went to the gym n did lots of weights) and a bloody good shot, got me square in the eye...... No wonder women scare me :):)

Why did you pick your username?
My lucky number is 5 (not that it's ever proven itself to be lucky:)) plus the nicknames I get called usually can't be repeated in public.......
What does it mean?
Luck?
Do you regret your decision, and if so, what would you change it to?
Nope
Was it a toss-up between a few? If so, what?
Not really, usually when I'm put on th spot, I come up with....... Blank..........blank.....tap tap tap....blank

I used to be sukebe_boy (sukebe = 'dirty old man' in Japanese) but I got banned on another forum and had to change it.

What does it mean?
'Porno Boy' in Japanese.

Do you regret your decision, and if so, what would you change it to?
Nah, no-one knows what it means (unless you're Japanese).

Yeah, Onani Master Kurosawa (Google it) ;)
Hahaha............ We know now!!!!
 

MTB Pilot

Likes Dirt
Why did I pick my username? Well to be honest, I was sitting at the computer signing up, with no idea what to call myself. I thought it would be good to be something to do with MTB, and I'd seen riders referred to as "pilots", so I thought there's an idea. I also used to be a recreational pilot, so it was a good name I thought. MTB is much cheaper than flying, and I don't care what bike you'd like to purchase as a "pilot".

What does it mean? Think that's be answered above.

Do I regret your decision, and if so, what would I change it to? No regrets at all! Think it's grown on me, and refers to two loves, even if I don't fly these days.

Was it a toss-up between a few? If so, what? It was the first one to come to mind really, and I was happy with it.
 

moorey

call me Mia
My only regret with 'Moorey' (explaination of name not necessary), is that every 'Moore' is 'a' moorey, and I should have used the same name as my email, 'The REAL Moorey'

....or maybe I should have just gone with the otf mentioned option of 'Moore-on':deadhorse:

NO telly, hows that go.
I have considered doing a Tv and internet lock down for a few days to see how it goes, Id imagine id get a lot more done, have better relationships and spend more time actually developing skills and doing productive things rather than wasting so much time doing nothing on the computer or tv.
Off topic, but, Do IT!!! (kill the TV, but keep the computer)
I haven't watched TV since a couple of cricket matches last summer, at that was the first time in a couple of years. We binned the old cathode ray telly before it was even obsolete, and a mate who felt sorry for us gave me a free LCD and set top box a couple of years back. I plugged it in to be polite, but thats about it.
The wide watches a bit of iView on the laptop while ironing, as do the kids very occasionally if its too wet to play outside.
I listen mainly to podcasts while mucking around the house (or on this forum), but to be fair, we have 2 young kids and live on a beautiful 40 acre bush block with plenty to keep me occupied. The last thing I could be bothered doing (or have the time to do) is turning on the box.

So here's your chance to explain yourself!
- Why did you pick your username? It's my name. With a Y on the end so it rolls off the toung.

- What does it mean? Try searching Jared in Urban Dictionary...

- Do you regret your decision, and if so, what would you change it to? Jared Graves the lucky bastard got "Jared" and so i'm pretty devostated about that!
I would love to get rid of the random capital R, I honestly dont know what I was thinking.

- Was it a toss-up between a few? If so, what? I used to be raging-hippo, man that was a long time ago. I changed to Jared for a few reasons. First is that I wanted a name that actually represented who I was, mostly for the sake of posting race photos and meeting people in real life.
I was also asahamed by the number of absolutley retarted comments and threads I made when i was a megasquidnoob and so I wanted to escape that. I went through a phase of tidying up my profile.

My favourite ice hockey player wore 93 and rather stick that after my name I figured I'd be like Maxwell Smart (86).

What does it mean?
It means I have delusions of grandeur, and like the number 93. The use of the word ninety relates to my web-domain.

Do you regret your decision, and if so, what would you change it to?
Nah.

Was it a toss-up between a few? If so, what?
Not really, the spelling was sorted.
 

wesdadude

ウェスド アドゥーデ
Amazing to see an unpunished gravedig.

My name is Wesley, hence Wes. Wesdadude was the name I came up with when creating a lego user back when I was something like 8 and it's stuck with me since. There wasn't really any other considerations and it's the user name I use everywhere.

I don't regret it and I don't think I would have anything to change it to if I did.

I was once an importer/exporter of fine latex

What does it mean?
It was my name when I worked in the latex industry

Do you regret your decision, and if so, what would you change it to?

I do now because I no longer work with latex. I would just go with George now

Was it a toss-up between a few? If so, what?
No, I was at the top of my game when I signed up

Why did you pick your username?

It has been my nickname since 1999

What does it mean?

It came from a bad joke one of my mates pulled at a house party that stuck.

The joke:

Him; Hey, you have some mattiyogi on your chin?
Me; What's a mattiyogi?
Him; nothin' BooBoo

My name is Matt so it immediately became yogi and then yogibear. As you can tell it is rubbish, so it stuck.

Do you regret your decision, and if so, what would you change it to?
No, if I were forced to change it it would become 'The Yeti' given my stature, amount of body hair and my love of the brand.

Was it a toss-up between a few? If so, what?
Was going to just use my name but decided on a level on anonymity.

- Why did you pick your username? It's a common nickname I use a bit everywhere coz my brain is already full.
- What does it mean? mr because I needed some extra letters for website that didn't allowed 3 letters nickname, and ptl because during my time of playing at CounterStrike I needed to shortener even more my nickname.

Why did you pick your username? I wanted to use my first name, but it was taken. Easiest thing to do was to chuck another 'k' on the end.
What does it mean? It's my first name with another K added to it :)
Do you regret your decision, and if so, what would you change it to? Nah, I don't regret it. It works quite well I think.
Was it a toss-up between a few? If so, what? Not really, was thinking of using my Battlefield name n3ntity, but it seemed kinda inappropriate for a mountain biking forum & I wanted something a bit more personal.
