Don't think we've had a thread like this before, so I'll just post it now.

How did ya'all come up with the usernames you have on this forum?

Well, I was thinking of using 2 of my previous Forum nicks; "CroutonsOfDeath" (From some shitty story I wrote as a kid about a father who murders his children in various ways, when read as an adult the only part that made me laugh was the "Croutons of death" bit.) or "PlagueDoctor" (I like history, I have a weird obsession with diseases, and Plague Doctor masks are fucking cool.) then decided that I'd actually use my real name in my nickname, and called myself UnknownKadath after "The Dreamquest of Unknown Kadath," the H.P. Lovecraft book I was named after.

Random gibberish I made up when I was younger and signing up for my first e-mail account (I think). I've mostly stuck with it because I hate putting random numbers on the end of my name and because I like to keep things consistent. I'm also not creative enough to think of something to be user-name where I'd be the only one to use my name.

The Cinema Cynic is a character I invented. He's an yuppie straight out of the 80's who reviews shitty direct to DVD movies. I have a few episodes written but I haven't gotten to film them yet due to lack of proper equipment.

My user name story isn't nearly as interesting.

Trancers has long been my favorite B-Movie of all time, so I thought "Son Of Jack Deth" would be an appropriate name for The Cinema Snob forum.

It comes from me being a wrestling fan and a fan of wrestling games. When I would play my friend Sonny back when WWF War Zone was out (and terrible), I would always say "Forget Hulkamania, brother, because Eckertmania is gonna run wild on you!"

Mine is pretty obvious. I love Dead Alive(Braindead for you purists) and everytime I see the Sumatran Rat Monkey I can't help but crack up.

Let us know if you do! I think I'll laugh if not just for the Yuppie element, I'll have to make sure to show it to my aunt Nikki. Apparently she was a notorious yuppie and loves seeing 'em spoofed nowadays x3

THAT's why your name is familiar! Haven't seen Trancers in ages. Charles Band flicks can be pretty hit and miss, but I remember enjoying Trancers and the original Puppet Master (If not for the Puppets themselves.) I love you Shame most of what he's done lately is too fucking forced (I wanted to love Evil Bong if not for the promise of Tommy Chong, but not even that and a lot of grass on my end could save it.)

My favorite wrestling game now is probably Fire Pro D for the Dreamcast, followed by Fire Pro Wrestling Returns for the PS2 and No Mercy for the N64.

As for my name, I love Mondo movies. Having to sit through the four Bruno Mattei mondo movies would be a dream come true. And "Monster a Go-Go" is one of my favorite movie titles, so...Mondo a Go-Go.

My first name and middle initial.
There's also a story behind the hyphen, but the last person I told it to died instantly of fright.

I've been going by the name of a character in one form or another from one of my stories.

My Granddad is called Barry and I was eating BnBns at the time of this names creation on a mine-craft forum. They were so great, I failed too see why anyone wouldn't enjoy them and just assumed my granddad did. This and I'm an open hipster.

He lives in a care home because of the many strokes he's had, but he doesn't really do much except smoke and watch Isle of Man TT. I visit him when I can, but he always seems depressed. From the stories he's told me, he used to be somewhat of a child prodigy when it came to electronics and mechanical engineering, so with a past like that and to be confined to a care-home the rest of your life, it must be like being on the Green Mile.

I thought Frank Rizzo was a politician. Then again I never heard of The Jerky Boys, so what do I know?

I mean that I'm a compulsive writer; though the idea of sitting down and watching soaps is really amusing. If that were the case I think my nick name would be Cricket.
