Hahaha was waiting for a thread like this. Yonggi is "acting" or "facade" in Korea. Being a rep forum I thought the name went well

platnumn was my first aol instant messenger screen name. I was in elementary school and i really wanted a "platinum" chain, but the username "platinum" was already taken. So I spelled it differently.

Horrible yes, I know.

I was a huge radiohead fan, and Thom Yorke. Thom designs all the album art covers with Stan Donwood and when he collaborates on art, his pseudonym is Tchock. So i started using tchockie as my alias since high school thinking only some other radiohead fans would get it.

Well nobody got it, and now everyone thinks I'm weird for having a weird word as my username and email.

It's the username I was given at my university. Combination of first and last name, number is used to differentiate non-unique name combinations.

Mine is obvious but i do wish I would have went with the handle i use in all forums but mostly style & clothing forums (Dirty_Denim) I am an avid selvedge denim lover and designer so thats where the denim part comes in but the dirty is based on how me and a good friend of mine would describe something beautiful, sick, dope fresh , awesome. In a sentence. That girl is Dirrrrrrty or in one word "DIRRRRRTY" with a raspy voice

As a Dodger fan (that's baseball, for my international frends) I was alway proud to wear Dodger Blue, but since they haven't played in a game of meaning since 1988, I have a case of the Dodger Blues.

BTW - this is a great tread, good on ya [MENTION=21839]frigpig[/MENTION]

In the COURTHOUSE!!
I was a kid and couldn't say H, not sure how it went but it didn't workoutta my mouth. So my mom used to say "H" and I would try to repeat it... fast forward and there ya go my mom called me H her whole life.
So I moved a business to Australia for the Millennial to help the Reserve Bank and APRA stay safe.

Well I met a Kazza Sazza and Nazza in my first month there! Once I asked huh? strange coincidence no? they explained and that night at the pub Hazza was born!

H from my mom, azza from the mob down under. Nobody uses my name, if they do you know they dont know me and are tryin to sell me something!

I sign everything H

Well.. My username is a little dark. But, I enjoy viruses (clearly).. And in my spare time from my standard research, I am looking for a "cure" for Ebola. I've been drawn to Ebola since I was in middle school (7th grade) and read The Hot Zone by Richard Preston. I went on to read every ounce of literature about Ebola I could get my hands on. Along this journey I fell in low with Pox, Marburg, and several other viruses. It's something I find so fascinating. Something so simple, yet, so deadly. I take this love, and use it everyday. I use viruses to deliver the information I want to cells. Think of it as a syringe and needle, just for your cells! I designed a virus to help control over platelet production in patients with Thrombosis, which leads to CAD. This has slowed the rate/numbers at which my patients develop CAD. So, that is where I get my Username. From being the insane one who tries to respond to the worlds virus outbreaks to try to get his hands on it.. Especially hemorrhagic viruses. :xj4:

[MENTION=21839]frigpig[/MENTION] I chose LethalSpectre partly because my love for James Bond/ the movie 007 Spectre... partly because I am lethal ;)
and partly because I LOVE the Omega Seamaster Spectre edition he wears in the movie.. especially the lollipop second hand.
I'll admit it is kind of a shit movie compared to the bond classics, BUT that sexy watch saved the movie for me :)

Hey that is really cool!
I learned a little bit about that stuff in college. Very fascinating.
I am currently working in the health care field and buying nice watches whenever I can ;)

I chose M1A1_Abrams for 3 reasons: I like tanks, I couldn't think of a name and I had a model of an M1A1 on my desk.

[MENTION=126896]gocougs[/MENTION]: My son will be a Coug soon. I'll be wearing the scarlet and gray, no doubt.

But let's be real about their football team. They have a recruiting problem. They may beat the dawgs this year, but not the Ducks.

I am a PSU Viking. Remember that home opener loss in Pullman last Fall? Yikes!
