05-26-2003, 05:30 PM
my family was very big, but i was the only child, so all my uncles used to dote on me. anyway, they never called me by my name unless they were shouting at me. instead; it was lilmiss...except for my dad, he called me flowerpot, and thats not a name you wanna be stuck with. ;)

@dead inside, where is that thing in your avatar from? its pretty cool.

My name is because I am half French and half Vulcan.

It should actuall be spelled J&#39;Pol, but I thought that was too elaborate.

Tiberius is Jaimes Kirk’s middle name. I wanted to register as tiberius, but apparently someone already has that name, so I just changed the i for a y.

Live long and prosper.

Its my "real world" nickname spelt backwards (on account of my little fuzzy goatee :devil: ) but a typo when signing up for an e-mail account added the 9&#33;

Illuminati
05-26-2003, 06:36 PM
I&#39;ve heard references to the Illuminati in the last few years, but it wasn&#39;t until Deus Ex until I started to pay attention about it. Seems that the Order of the Illuminati actually did exist (probably under the alias Knights Templar as well, but there&#39;s no apparent connection apart from the fact that one appeared a century after the other died out), and it amazed me how much power they managed to accumulate without being actually well-known. The urban myth also intrigues me in that despite "disbanding" in 1900, they could still be around and no-one knows. That kinda made me stick to the Illuminati alias.

That, and I was running out of ideas for aliases (I already had CAce, Magnum, Omega, and Nostradamus besides others), so I got the first one that seemed good :D

"CELEBS_ARE_US" Eak A Mouse "Once Said Thats how he got his name", but that was a long time ago.
We were on tv, so i thought thats a good name for us.
I was on Romper room as a doo bee doo,Thats not "Romper stomper" and my mate Jonno was on sky one "the guilty" show, Plus we were on jerry springer show "I got a secret", So we are CELEBS, And we are US.
So as once said by my friend Eak A Mouse, thats how we got our name. B)

Could you explain what this means JJ. I am really confused and not a little concerned.

DarthInsinuate
05-26-2003, 10:21 PM
Darth - because i am a big Star Wars fan (not a big enough fan to find out what &#39;Darth&#39; is)
Insinuate - because it sounds evil at first but gets less evil when you think about it

Oh well, I will tell you anyway.

When I first signed up for.... for... (Do I have to tell you?).... Ok, it was neopets (go ahead and snicker) and everything I wanted was taken. I tried at least 20 names to no avail. Then "Eureaka&#33;" Got memory was born.



:P


It has stuck with me since. In various versions as needed. (Gotmemory, got_memory, got_memory?, jkoop™, goop, TDX™, etc...).


Thats the real story&#33;

05-26-2003, 11:34 PM
@Got_memory?

You&#39;re not alone. I used to play neopets also.

Anyways, my name came from a basketball move (guess which one lol :lol: ). My sister first said the name and I thought it was funny so I used it.

Well, BIC is a short version of my last name and somebody mentioned it looked a lot like BIG (why on earth he thought that is beyond me)
So I was then instantly named after Mister Biggie himself and NotoriousBIC was born (although physically I don&#39;t bear any semblance at all with Notorious BIG)

Suicyco247
05-31-2003, 02:52 PM
Suicidal Psycho 24 hours, 7 days a week, just a huge Suicidal Tendencies fan, used to be Suicyco420 but then my pot habit slowed(just slowed, not stopped) and I wanted to lose the 420 moniker. Suicyco is the common term for a Suicidal fan, but even on MSN I could only find like 20 Suicyco references, shame really, they are a great punk/hard rock band that had a few great albums. BTW Metallica&#39;s new member started in suicidal as well as Ozzy&#39;s bassist Rocky. AND it&#39;s not Suicy. Co. although I can understand the mistake.
But really, ANYONE that likes heavy/punk music should at least check out some older Suicidal, they are,were and always will be a great band. I still cannot hear "How Will I laugh Tomorrow" without shedding a tear, and "You Can&#39;t Bring Me Down" without wanting to break something&#33;

jai- pronounce "Gi"
gan- "gan"

So "Gigan"

d- problem

hi5- high five

I was trying to get "gigantic high five", but that "d" screwed it all up&#33;
