I made four gamertags and named them all names that I've used on the Internet for years.
Not a single one of them has stupid numbers in them.

I don't own a 360 but on Steam I chose SimuLord because it's the username I use for everything gaming-related (on non-game-related websites I use Monster Dog/monsterdog5).

SimuLord is for "god of simulated people" considering I play a LOT of god-games and like The Sims. In essence I am the god from the machine.

MonsterDog is actually a reference to a character I created in NBA Live 2001, a big bald black dude wearing #5 for the Celtics with maxed-out stats (you can imagine my delight when Kevin Garnett, a big, bald black dude with damn good stats, signed with the Celtics and took #5.)

TheFoldingChair

Its an inside joke. One of my friends dated this skinny pasty white chick. I made a comment that she looked like a folding chair when she sits down.

Mine used to Wwwhwonline but nobody could pronounce it, so i changed it to something more memorable. I think "LegoShoes" fills that hole quite amicably.

I do some youth work and the nickname they randomly labelled me with was Pringles, the logic was later nailed down as 'well i guess you're as thin as a pringle crisp and tall like the tube they're packaged in?'. Thanks guys...

I've used the name Haberley for God knows how long, and it basically is my pseudonym - Haberley Mead. It might sound like a cool name, until you know that I basically got it from walking down a street I'd never seen before in my home town, and seeing the street name. "Haberley Mead? Hmm, sounds like a good name - I'm stealing it!"

Yeah. I'm THAT cool... :p

oo Pumaman oo

Because of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXsu0ueiB9k

Fond memories of watching that episode over and over and over with one of my best friends so much that it infiltrated into my vocabulary. Even now I can remember at least one instance within the past week where I've shouted "PEKABOOOOO" or "Aaaah I'm [some action]breaking every law of physics!"

Plus it's kind of cool. I'm the goddamn Pumaman!
