Why Did You Pick Your Screen Name?

[2earls]

OK, everyone that has read many of my posts knows that I ADORE animals, so please don't take this the wrong way!

Many years ago, I was given a gift. It was a stuffed animal called "Earl, the dead cat". He is flat, has a crooked tail, and stars for eyes. I love old Earl and my husband kind of took a liking to him as well. So much so, he bought old Earl a brother. (I was surprised he was still for sale after all those years)

So there they sat when I signed up for DBG. They are inseparable, of course!

Now after that ridiculous story, no one should be embarrassed to share their own story! I'd love to hear them.

PS you can Google Earl, I'm sure he's still out there. I've got quite a "thing" for stuffed animals. Probably my biggest eccentricity.

That's a cute story 2E... the one I'm most curious about is Roger since she's a she, lol

 

[TealGreen]

I looked him up and he's adorable in an odd sort of way. I want one! He's only 9.99. I'm a huge animal lover too and I totally get it. Your name means so much more now. 😏

Here's the website if anyone is interested:

My screen name has no creativity to it whatsoever. I love the beach and I'm a girl. I have no idea how I came up with the 90, it literally has zero significance.

Aha! He is only $9.99, now I know my husband is cheap! JK

 

[2earls]

This was my user name on the only other site I've been a part of (A prison site when my boyfriend was sentenced to death row) so I guess it just sorta stuck....I wish I had a cool story with mine /default_unsure.png   now I feel lame!  haha

Are you kidding me? You had a BF on death row? That pretty much blows a story about a stuffed cat outta the water!

 

[TealGreen]

oh yayy!! I'm back to feeling not so lame! and yeah...I *have* a boyfriend on Death row....but....I'm not as cool as those chicks you see who hook up with guys after their sentencing....we've been together since he was out and about /default_smile.png

I don't know if this is an out of line question or if it's even the place to ask but why is he on death row? And you're still together? How does that even work? I understand if you don't wanna answer. I'm just curious.

LOL I remember asking you this a while ago. I still crack up randomly when I see your name.

Peanut = 4 yr. old Miniature Shorthaired Dachshund that is my little buddy: My best friend that does not communicate like people, but we both understand each other. I'm going to change my avatar pic one of these days if/when I figure it out.

 

[yellowbelly]

Yellowbelly is code for the Yellow Watson 853 hydro's. Back in the day when I would talk to my buddy on the phone. I would ask him if he had any "yellowbelly's". It makes for somewhat of a lame username on a forum, but it is, what it is... /default_rolleyes.gif

Ouch! Death row? Not that it's any of my business, but do you find it hard to keep a bf/gf relationship going knowing that he will probably never get out?

 

[pokeytoe]

Well I sure posted the whole name thing in the wrong tread. Yea...Way to go poke! Here we go again. I promised myself I wouldn't do the same stupid stuff I did last year when my brain was mush.

 

[Gyre]

Gyre is a not very well known fantasy book. However, I red it in the period I started experimenting with drugs and since then I associate 'Gyre' with drugs. Simple as that.

 

[Gyre]

Wait 'Gyre' is the German translated title. The book is originally calles 'weaveworld'

Don't be so hard on yourself PT! I read your story, it was cute.

Partick Thistle?...

 

[Phrenicz]

Mine comes from who I was and who I am today?

Schizo was a very young naive, cocky, arrogant, selfish arsehole!... Who took and took, without a thought for anyone else's feelings.. Never stopping to think about the damage he was doing to others, or his self for that matter...

Phrenicz is who I am now... A person that has absolutely nothing in common with that person anymore...

Afterall, life is about learning, evolving and striving to be the best you can be... My life used to be all about helping myself... Now it's about helping others, which ironically is now the one thing that allows me to help myself...

Reading that back, it's kind of confusing, but I think it will make sense to most of you...

~P~

The translation sounds so much better. Mysterious or exotic. Weaveworld conjures up a wig shop!

Spot on mate. I understand what you mean with your name explanation post also.
