Bittersweet Candy Bowl

I’m kinda surprised I have seen one of these here, but if there is one and I just missed it by all means you can delete this and direct me to the new one.

Holy Crap, any-hoo, how did you guys come up with your names on here? Some great long story or simple “Hur-dur I want to be witty!” thing? Mine is basically the second one. But I’m pretty sure you could tell that. So give me some interesting stories, I wanna know!

I originally came up with ToastyJester in the 4th grade year with a pair of my friends when I was just drawing random crap. I drew a piece of toast. Then I drew a jester hat, cause I’ve always loved jester hats. Then I drew me with a jester hat on. THEN I drew toast with a jester hat on.

Then it just kind of hit me to be ToastyJester. Good stuff. Been using it for almost everything since.

And that is why you have one of the most delicious names here.

I have a fascination with solar deities but SunGod was already taken on AIM so I thought Sun Flavored God was terribly clever. Later, after I stole the girlfriend of a guy who considered me his best friend, I changed it to Sun Flavored Jerk.

Nowadays, I go by Jerk with varying flavors because when they start referring to me by the root name it lets me know they feel comfortable around me enough to call me what would be a pejorative under other circumstances.

Plus, I like it when people ask me to change my flavor and then put forth suggestions and stuff. I consider these people my friends so it kind of flatters me when they do that.

Ved is my first Sonic OC, and he’s evolved quite a bit.
Still an overpowered character, but more balenced.
Lately I’ve been more for Jack Stripes, obviously for my more developed character Jack.

Awesome my name is found to be delicious. I shall take this as a major compliment.

Well, Kaxbe is a bastardization of Gatsby. Y’know. Like “The Great Gatsby”. I was really into the letter “K” for some reason then. So “Gatsby” became “Catsby” (because I like cats even though I have mild allergic reactions to them) and then “Katsby” and then “Kotsby” and then back to “Katsby” and then “Kacksby” and then “Cocksby” but then I changed it to “Cacksby” and then I changed the “cks” to a “x” and the “y” to an “e”.

I put “Gabriel” because it’s my first name and I was worried that Taeshi wouldn’t remember me at all and because I’m insecure.

Also I have no qualms about you people knowing who I am.

Well,i just created a character for a future strategy game then i thought like,i think it fit for a BCB fan character,then its done.

Oh yeah, here’s the total B.S. story I told Souppy the other night. it was 3 in the morning and I was feeling sarcastic.

It a terrible story of heart ache, and betrayal SuitCase, are you sure? Once I had a simple life, a steady job, a loving family, but that all changed when he came into my life. We swept me off my feet and showed me a world that I had never imagined. He popped the bubble of life and we ran away together. We rode the rails for a year, going where ever the trains did, with only ourselves and a dog named Waffles for company.

One day we were trying to catch a train to Washington, Waffle’s was pulling hard on his makeshift leash and I noticed that it was becoming a tab bit frayed, but I decided not to mention anything. I decided not to make a comment. As we were running to grab the train, the leash broke and Waffles tumbled down the hill and fell into a truck full of pillows heading towards town. Waffles didn’t chase after the train that day.

He never forgave me and eventually left me alone, I returned home and now I prowl the internet, making sure I always leave a comment. Maybe one day I’ll leave enough comments to make up for the one I never made….

Yup that’s not even remotely close as to how it happened. I was over on DrunkDuck about a year or so ago, at the bottom of every comic page there’s this thing that says “Want to Leave a comment? Become a member today!” Well, me always having something witty to say decides to get an account. But here’s my problem, I am not an artist, in fact I suck really badly at it. Well I decide ‘hmm, if all I’m gonna do here is write comments and I’m not even gonna post a comic, I’ll name myself Leaving a comment.’ Amazingly, people liked the name and now I use it for stuff like this or slightly change it to suit the needs of what ever site I’m on at the moment.

@Toasty, yes that’s a complement

@Gabe, that’s only mildly confusing.

I’m bad with names. I usually take a odd word and change it bit by bit till I find something half decent. I can’t recall the word I used for Rukral, but the usernames for other things I’m on I have stories for

I started using Ace when I wanted to play Laser Quest when i was like, 10 and my first choice of Viper was taken. So, I used Ace and never looked back.

The horselord is for funs. Neigh.

@ Horselord, I know perfectly well where to horselord came from. Thank you for entertaining to my insane suggestions.

@ Leaving a comment: How so?

Once upon a time (about 6-7 years ago) when I first started to find forums interesting I had no set name and usually named myself after Kingdom Hearts characters. However all too often such names were taken forcing me to put random numbers next to my username, something that got annoying so I said ‘screw it’ and just typed some random letters crating the name ‘Arbajor.’ Since then I have almost always used the name and it has yet to be taken, if you ever happen to see an Arbajor then it would be me.

@Arbajor: Kinda like “Kaxbe” or “Kitco” for me.

Of course I’m also paranoid, I did not want any of my friends to recognize me in case they ever found the site (for whatever reason) so I decided to leave the ‘name’ space blank. Seeing as it wouldn’t let me do this I just typed in ‘nameless’ and placed in in parenthesis (it was just meant to be a placeholder until I came up with something witty and interesting). However the whole (nameless) thing seems to fit so I kept it.

On a side note I’ve already given out so much personal info. that if my friends found the site they would most likely recognize me without the Arbajor name.

my name is acutally just made up from something i decided to make.. no real story behind it… just a name i thought up for a character in a game.
pretty lame story i know : /

I love that book (The Great Gatsby) btw.
Also I like the tile ‘O Nameless One,’ Arbajor leads to very few nicknames or titles

@Gabe, because you only slightly changed it 10 different ways. It’s not really confusing just… i guess awkward would be a better word maybe? Or just different, yes that’s best, it’s different.

And on another note, yay random letters!

Yeah…My name is my real first name. I used to do the whole anonymous thing until I realized how easy it is for someone to figure out who you are anyway. I then decided to just use my real name. If anyone does try to track me down, I will simply laugh at them for wasting their time and depending on the circumstances (hitman) punch them in the face.

Good point Sean, but I’m embarrassed that I share my first and nickname with Katie(That bitchy dog girl) so that wouldn’t work for me.

I was just thinking to myself one day about making a serious online alius. I decided to make both a first and a last alius. The first name was meant to portray a characteristic of mine. Although it’s kinda harder to tell in the internet, I’m a VERY random person - at least I was at the time, so my first name is Spradic, a play on of the word Sporadic, meaning “occurring at irregular and random intervals.” The second alius is a trait I admire. I like speed in almost everything I do and every game I play, so Zoom sounded like the best idea. Hence, Spradic Zoom.

Let see for the Goldwulf part of my name its just a play of Slvrwulf my name on the dateing site im on (no luck oh well) So i just switched silver to gold on that one, the rest of my user name and alternate name

Rugworthy Q. Triplesexy was originaly a name i made up to sound super British just so i could mess around on the Random chat fourum and pretend to be a British lord for a day. The Rugworthy part means pretty much that im worthy of having sex with on a bear skin rug in front of a roaring fire (dont ask how i came up with that) so i get a bit of a laugh when ever anyone reffered to me as such. The rest of Q. Triplesexy is pretty much self explanatory

And this is why I auto correct your name in my head to Rugsworthy sir.

Not exactly. Why the Q?

Because everything sound more classy with something in the middle and a Q is the classiest of middle initials

Does is stand for Quintin?

Occasionaly, it switches to the classiest Name beging with a Q dependingon who veiws it

It must stand for Quantum

I simply wanted to imply that I have something of great importance to say, via the suggestion of much thought.

I like to critique and there are only so many positive and negative things you can say, thus stereotypes.

Maybe it should be like the Q entity. All powerful. neigh

When I was but a wee tyke, I hung out on a chat room an aweful lot, and always had the issue as to which moniker to go by perminantly.

Until one day, I saw a Mel Gibson movie about a smooth talking, card playing cowboy wanna be. The movie was called Maverick, and I liked the sound of it. And poker was like some kind of magic to me at the time, which was awesome.

So I decided to name myself after the movie. Being a youngin, I mispelled the name as Maverik, and have continued to spell it thusly as a certain homage to my younger self.

Depending on whether or not the name is taken, I sometimes add varing degrees of Dark to the front of the name.

i literally came up with my name on the spot

Jake, because it’s my real name.

Purple man, I told you not to come and look what you did…. Eh, to late to change now. Welcome sir!

Well, I’m a car enthusiast and I just love the Nissan Skyline so that’s where the Skyline in my name came from. The Faux was just a random word I found when I was looking for webcomics to read and stuck it at the end of Skyline to make it err… unique. I’ve stuck with it ever since. Much better than the screen name I thought up when I was like, in 3rd grade or something.

I’m not entirely certain how long I’ve been the Titanium Dragon (its really more of a title than a name; TD is a name!). I’ve been using it for well over a decade online, but it predates my use of it as a screen-name internet.

I BELIEVE the name comes from the early 1990s, when I was first introduced to Dungeons & Dragons. If there could be a gold dragon, why not a titanium one, because titanium is better than gold!

The reason I say believe is that it is more complicated than that. The image of the Titanium Dragon predates the name (possibly… I do seem to recall “dragon” being involved, but it might have just been the single word dragon, rather than the whole phrase), including the costume. Costume? Well… the Titanium Dragon isn’t actually a dragon. Well, it is and it isn’t. The outfit actually has been in my head since as long as I can remember. White cloak, big shoulderpads, kind of breastplate looking thing, a mask… well, its difficult to describe properly so it doesn’t sound generic, but suffice to say this mental image, complete with the dragon regalia, predates my introduction to Dungeons & Dragons. It is one of the outfits I associate with future myself.

I am less sure about the shining silvery dragon associated with the imagery; I don’t know if that predates or post-dates my introduction to that game.

The Titanium Dragon is what I aspire to be. It is me, or perhaps, an idealized form of myself from the future. So I use the name now, so I can grow into it. It is my avatar, you might say.

“Matrixx” sounded cool in the 6th grade. What remains is what’s left after I got rid of all that my friends and acquaintances would allow.

*The Ninja Vaults are a huge collection of the most closely guarded secrets of the Ninja. Thousands upon thousands of books, scrolls, and artifacts are stored in this immense, but well-hidden structure. Despite what you might think, most of what is stored here has nothing to do with a Ninja’s training or equipment or even the code by which he must live his life. The vast majority of this great archive consists of situations and circumstances when a Ninja may break the Code of Ninjitsu. And it is here, in the dark depths of the stacks, that the Ninja has spent the better part of the day, desperately searching for a loophole.*

Well, it looks like I’m not allowed to elaborate on the “Ninja” part of my name, but I’d like to take a moment to explain the rest of it.
The “*” part refers to my habit of prefacing my posts with a short story that may or may not be from my life(see above).
The various iterations of my name arise whenever I want to convey a specific emotion while causing the minimum confusion, just want to make a joke, feel the urge to throw people off, or am too tired to write a preface.

But, yeah. You guys already knew all that.

I choose “01-10010-1011” because…Well, Its the binary number version of my pseudonym’s initial.

@ *Ninja, that answers something that’s been bothering me for some time, at first I just though there were a bunch of ninjas in this forum.

But there still could be for all I know…

@01-10010-1011, It’s ARK, isn’t it?

I took my name from the PSP game “WipEout Pure”, a futuristic hover racing game. The team has survived 2 games after said installment, in which the logo changed. Although I first found the team in Pure, I use the sequels’ iconas an avatar whenever I get the chance:



I have also gone through a number of other “cool sounding” names, and a funny joke name my dad happened to come up with. Maybe I can tell that story another time, since I’m not sureif you wanna hear it. If you do, though, just let me know!

Nope, all the Ninjas are just me in a different disguise, except ScarfNinja.

You can usually tell if it’s him if “Ninja” is preceded by an asterisk. Megaket does something similar.

@Ninja: Yes but Flamethrower Ninja….? I wasn’t aware ‘Flamethrower’ was an emotion

The two exceptions to that rule are Flamethrower Ninja and ?Ninja.

Fair enough

A-Ha-Ha-Haaa

VERY funny (namehasfinallybeendeterminedbutwaswayfunnierwheni twasn’t)
