That's where I got it! I was simply flabbergasted as to why I would add a whole new word to your name. Something new to pm you about!!
That has actually made me ROFL! You must hear voices in your head, yes? ;-) And props for using the word flabbergasted (an under used word imo)
This is so off topic, but what the hell. Yes, voices, all the time, in fact. :) I'll tell you more about that another time perhaps. My brain holds an entire lexicon of obscure phrases and terminology. It comes from too much reading and entirely too much time spent in the presence of fuddy duddies. Some of my friends speak as if they are straight out of the middle ages, I swear. One of them actually used the word "issue" instead of child the other day, and "dotage" instead of old age. I asked him if he needed me to powder his wig for him. ;) Unfortunately it rubs off on me a bit, kind of like how if you eat a smelly cheese for lunch you keep wondering the rest of the day where that scent is coming from...

Beldaros is a character in one of my books, often I add my year of birth to the end. If someone is named Beldaros and they are not me please inform me so I can sue them for copyright.

Seriously though, whenever I enter Beldaros as a tag you can bet your ass no body else is using it, on anything.

My eldest son has great love of archaic words and phrases and uses as many as he can squeeze into the day, he is very fond of saying ''Wench, get my tea'', (love the word wench) which is funny cos he cooks for himself, he is a revivalist when it comes to underused words :)
He uses Subjectse7en often as a usename!

WorkerMurphey is based on the name of a toy gorilla my uncle used to taunt myself and my brother with. It was a little plush gorilla with overalls and a hard hat. When you squeezed him the gorilla would make a monkey like "ooga" sort of sound. My uncle would wait till I wasn't paying attention and scare me with the gorilla's noise.

I'm not sure why I hooked onto it as an internet identity, I guess it's fairly unique and sometimes people assume I'm an Irish laborer of some kind.

My gamertag is Mista Lime.

It was basically from this comic strip that a friend and I did when we were little. It revolved around two blobs named Fred and Bob that went on wackily fun adventures. Mista Lime was a black stick figure with a top hat that did odd things like dance like Miko in the fac3e of Godzilla and then go and get the chicks.

Wench is awesome. I was a serving wench last Halloween. My brother is a ceramic artist. He made me these great old fashioned mugs that can hold a pint and then some. Whenever I use them I feel the wench in me come out. So much fun to be had as a wench. ;)

I'm thinking I should have used wench as a username now, is it too late to change my gamertag? ;-)

the name skooterz has a weird history. At first I hated it when my friends would call me it, but then I just decided fuck it, and played along. Its the name I use for pretty much everything now, sometimes with numbers tacked on the end if someone has already taken it. Suffice it to say it was based off my real name to some extent, with some development of a detective "parody" comic (if it can even be called that, given how short it was) that my friend and I co-wrote. HE, I might add, chose the main character's name. This was during the last year or so of high school. Damn, has it really been 4 years already?

My gamertag, Metal Cross09, used to be the name I had planned for my first solo project album. I was going to name it "Metal Cross" as a sort of testament to the old classic 80s thrash metal albums. I just added the 09 because I liked that number with my name the most.

If you were referring to our names here I just came up with mine out of nowhere, it has no real origin.

If only! But now someone else will get this fabulous tag. Oh well, I guess I'll have to stick with meganmeave.

It's the name of a song I wrote, 'The Miracle of Sound' about music and sex (the two best things in life) and it's also a reference to Soundwave, hence the avatar.
Indeed. And they compliment each other quite well.
