Mine, strangely came from a comic I made as a 10 year old...A rather dramatic story about angels and demons. There were two angels of Chaos. One White, one Black.

Coincidentally, mine also has the ABC slipped in. Eh.

I got mine not from the movie "WarGames" but from the videogame "WarGames Defcon 1"

I loved how the WOPR team had a robot army and I've taken up the name ever sense.

Mine came from when I was a LOT younger.. I think.. 13ish.. But yeah, I made this name because I was into Naruto at the time.. And even though I'm no longer a fan, the name as sorta stuck..

Thunder = Pikachu's type (I really loved Pokemon when I came up with it).
13 = My lucky number, also people don't tend to use 13 on the end of their usernames.
o = Thunder13 was taken, also it sounds better.

Another username I sometimes use is Beatle followed by a number, pretty self explanitory.

Most Escapists should know who Headdy is. For those of you who don't...

◄ It's this guy.


In some contexts, I still go by Dr. Gunsforhands, a reference to the short-lived True Life Adventures of Brian and Sosa. For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, I cannot find the thing anymore, but it was drawn by the guy who did the Red Mage articles on the site that does 8-bit-theater, and it featured a giant spider that was also a captain of industry.

Dr. Gunsforhands was this guy:

I used to be called Dwarf Jesus, named after a silly animation I made that said "All Hail The Dwarf Jesus". It was a project for our web design class (for a flash animation).

So, I used that for most of the time, until I constantly got nagged about how my name was offensive over Xbox live and over a few forums, so I changed it to this.

I find my name ironic because I am 6'1", can't be stealthy worth an inch of my life and my family is atheist.

When I first tried WoW, I decided to spice up the first thing that came up on randomizer.
ROT became Rothope (Rot-hope) but then my guild started calling me "Roth" so it became (Roth-ope)
My escapist name come from the game Postal 2, in which the main character is literally name "The Postal Dude" which surprisingly wasn't taken.
