Mine is the name of the UNSC ship spirit of fire. from halo wars. I chose the ship name because it seemed like a great name for a ship and a decent username. it because I love RTS games and a halo RTS game was just an amazing idea..

I saw this drink at the supermarket and it had a really stupid flavour: "Fantastic Orange Lime Explosion".

I thought to myself, "C'mon, even I could come up with a better name than that."

thats not a very good retort. "you are a videogame junkie!" "no, I quite like arcade games"
thats like "your a homicidal maniac" "no, I slice the throats of the living"

Mine 'Twisted Idiot'

Well my normal nickname is Twist. I'm considered to have a very twisted sense of humour at times and make an idiot of myself when very very drunk, and there ya go.

I'm THE Brian J, cause there's nobody else like me.

....wait for it....wait for it...

*POSE STRIKE*
-_-...

Mine is a Song title. The band's name is two words.

Another guess?
Kidding, kidding >_>

Anyway, song title...Mykonos....

The Fleet Foxes song?
Hooray!
I'd say that you got your name from a Greek island named Mykonos.. But guess I would be wrong :p
Anyway, the parent name of my nickname is, you guessed right (or maybe not?) McAfee! Ye.. ye.. the anti-virus company! :p Well as I was roaming the internets some years back, I went to a forum of sorts and stumbled upon a reply of someone called, McVafee! And I thought it was a nice and funny abreviation.. So I thought.. What makes it more cool and funny than the previous guy's nickname? McVaffle! :p And thus came the legend of McVaffle and the 7 seas! o_O Goin to make a coffee to wake up now....

I suppose telling you that she said it while I was playing an RPG, something of a rarity for me, was what prompted me to respond as such wouldn't matter at all.

Well, it's a little embarrassing, but back in the early days of the Internet when I was but a young lad, I found myself fascinated with the former Federal Prison at Alcatraz, quite possibly from having watched "The Rock" in my formative years, and I was convinced that not only the most notorious, but only the most ultimately badass of criminals would have ever been sentenced to the desolate island. Thus I formulated the identity of AlcatrazInmate13, shortened thus to Inmate13, combining with this obsession one of my self-proclaimed 'lucky numbers'

While over the years my interests and self-perceptions have changed (as well as a few of my usernames on other websites) this has remained my quintessential online identifier. Now I challenge the rest of you to find me elsewhere in the mystical land of the magical tubes...

... The origin of Glerken?
That's a tale for another day.
And would be a short story most likely.

You see, it all started when I was a wee lad...
Ditto... but to summarize, it started out as an imaginary friend.

I read Icewind Dale and took an immediate liking to Artemis Entreri. So much, in fact, that I changed my legal first name to Artemis.

The "923" was the last three numbers in the barcode of the Icewind Dale book I bought.

Mine is just shortened versions of my first and last name, with my lucky number chucked on the end for good measure.
