How did you come up with your handle?
« on: December 04, 2009, 05:35:14 AM »
I was wondering how some people on this site came up with their user name/handle? I was a meat cutter so I got my user name that way. So how did you guys/gals come up with yours?

I could be described  as  ..................


Sucker for gadgets.

Toolaholic.

Intrigued by the technical side of most things , how they work , who invented it , how it's made.

Even as a small boy took things apart.

Rarely do I leave any of my vehicles stock , even a chainsaw might get "tweaked".  (too much time spent around a dynmometer )

I envision things ,  ( parts , tools etc )   then create them ,  usually in metal

mine comes from the years 1984/5

i was a headbanger in school and dressed like motley crue / judas priest etc.



wore concert shirts and everyone called me Alister Fiend (written on shirt) from Motley Crue t-shirts and it stuck.

i shortened it to fiend because that's all that is left of me.  when i like something, i can't get enough.  i am a fiend.

All the crap that I have pulled over the years.... I should be dead. But alas, I am not. Multiple scars, and a broken ankle are all that has happened to me. And I drive an XJ... damn hard to kill those things.
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!

Fraser i thought you got it cause you're always 'white knuckled' when you drive/wheel ;)


JohnnyC = lack of ingenuity in a name.  i tried for Johnny Love but the girls just laughed and that became LJ.

besides it sounds better to say 'what is johnnyC doing? what an idiot' or  'hey, Johnnyc is broken again'
just sounds better ;)

I use to  install cable, and I am short. Given to me by a co-worker and it stuck.

Now it's my company name.
