Username origins

[TimBone]

Allow me to create one more stupid thread before the season starts. I often wonder about every bodies usernames when I'm scrolling down the page.

I want to know more about how you guys came up with these names. Do they have personal meaning to you?

Now, you guys with Chiefs references in your names, like OTWP58, we obviously don't need your explanation.

...and you guys with obvious names, we'll be alright without yours as well.
For example:

Inmen - We know Inmen obviously has his name for sexual preferences. Why he would choose to put that out there on a message board is beyond me...but to each his own.

JASONSAUTO - it's very apparent that he's an Asian dude and went with the super boring first and last name username. Step your username game up, dude. This ain't a late 90's chatroom.

Rico - we know his name is a character that he's put together for himself. A handsome character, I might add.

The usernames I'm Interested in are the more vague ones.

The ones that aren't obvious references.

Names like Simply Red, bufkin, Donger, Bwana, etc.

And those with initials...like PGM, SNR, etc.

In fact wasn't there a thread last offseason where people were trying to guess what SNR stood for?

I believe that we also learned that Milkman was an actual Milkman at one point.

Amyways, just a thought. If a ghey thread, flame away.

Your name isn't Al? Nothing makes sense anymore.

No shit, that's like finding out Jason's last name isn't Sauto.

Crazy, right? I wasn't even thinking about it back when I registered. I don't say anything because if I did, whoever I corrected would pause, look at my username again, and go, "well wtf, come on man, what did you expect me to think?". I woulda thought my name was Al, too.

Anyway, its Aaron if anyone cares.

Glad to meet you, Aaron. I like that name. Always have.

BECAUSE WE ARE THE CHIEFS

[C3HIEF3S]

Nothing special here, in fact it's now out-of-date.

Played hockey my entire life and have always been #33. One "3" placed as second character, other placed as second to last character for symmetry. Any site I register for that requires a username i'll put something along the lines of "C3HIEF3S", "R3OYAL3S"..
Playing college hockey this year and my new number is now just 3.
