Just a bit of fun: What is the origin of your user name?

Mine comes from playing video games with my buddies when I was in my early 20's Everyone who played tried to make their user name a derogatory remark towards another's wife/girlfriend. Captmilk is a derogatory remark directed towards my buddy's girlfriend. I was saying that I have was the captain of milking her. Lol It has been my user name for everything since. Not sure why but that's it.
 
Way back in the early 70's when CB Radio started to get popular here in the UK I saw a picture of an American KW 18 wheeler with "The Prospector" on the hood bug deflector so I thought "thats cool" and ripped it off for my CB handle and so...

Funny I never thought of that way, but you're right. Maybe I should copyrightthe name in case a company offers one. No offence taken.
 
Skull was a nickname given to me by a mate of mine. Funny how things get turned around, my name is Doug and that related to skullduggery, ( used to get up to some), so it become Skull....so 650Skull
 
Hamish is James in Galic..

My mechanic pinned the HighSpeedHamish on me after the owner called me Hamish one day. The highspeed portion came from racing bikes in the mid-late 90s.. I always had the wrong bike for the track (RZ350s), speed but no torque.

My modified R1 keeps up with that tradition.. rofl.:bike:
 
dedede comes from a comic mind of mencia (spelled wrong Im sure) Its what I say to my students when they finally get the simple right answer after struggling awhile.
 
Comes from the bible verse Philippians 3:20-21 But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.:thumbsup:
 
Does it need an explanation? Nothing original here. Before I came here I was really active on a Canadian Ford Focus forum and I was "Focus Man, Focus" over there. Oh the good times I had.

If I could change my name over here I would.

Alrighty then. Used to be 1979 XS650. But thanks to Travis I am now Unfocused. Mostly because I used to have a heavily modified ZX5 and now with 3 kids they didn't fit. So "Unfocused" it is.

My last name is Nutter. It was a curse in primary school, but I embrace it now. The_nutt has been my forum handle for 10+ years now.
 
amprider7.....I'm an amputee, a rider, and I only have 7 fingers.

I've got finger jokes out the ying yang, and usually the life of a party once the pointing of fingers gets thrown out there. I only have a pointer and thumb on one hand so I can point at someone and not have 3 pointing back at me! Plus I have a prosthetic hook that makes for a good laugh too!
 
I took my name from a Gamertag I made along time ago.
I've always been into different forms of martial arts and I always thought of the Samurai to be some of the most badass iconic warriors so I took Samurai. And when I was a kid I wanted to be a fighter pilot and to have the name Ace (what kid didn't) so I used Ace as my videogame pseudonym growing up.

However now adays I use it for my Japanese cafe racer , Samurai - strong Japanese warrior and Ace - Ace cafe, home of the cafe racer so .... Samuraiace!
 
I got the handle rustyrocket from the hot rod hobby. my young son thought my 32 ford was rusty(it was just minor surface rust, but to a 6 year old it looks bad) the rocket part is because the 32 has a oldsmoible motor, back in the fiftys olds motor were refered to as rocket motors. so there you have it.
 
I had a good friend that was a custom car painter and motocross race buddy. We were on a MX team and we had Kandy colored bikes. He passed away several years ago so it is a little reminder. When I raced they called me DDOG. Dangerous Dog. When I was younger I always would want to be the first one to jump a big jump or find the fastest way down a section of track. Sometimes it did not goes as planned :)'
