How or why did you choose your username?

My Screen name is the same for everything, PSN, Xbox Live, World of Warcraft when i played it.

I chose it because one of all time favourite Mighty Morphin Power rangers villans was called Mistress Woe, and i thought 'Thewoe' sounded cool ;)

Back in the olden days of the internet when I had to make my first screen name (AOL dial up!) I chose dv8 which was my favorite comic book series and maddots which is an anagram of my name. "dv8maddots"

Over time, people began to shorten it to dv8 or dv8mad. I ended up switching to dv8mad since dv8 was taken in most places.
 
The story behind my name isn't as interesting as most of the other members' stories, but here it is. I went with Troll2Fan because I love horribly done, cheesy movies and Troll 2 is known as the "best worst movie" ever made. It's so bad that there have been drinking games created for it. :)

Example

Example 2 in spoiler:

This is the best worst movie ever made.
Maybe I'm nuts and have low expectations of partying, but this movie makes for a great Friday night.

When I say "best worst ever made" I mean it is watchable, but only with a group of good people and a drink in your hand. And maybe some awesome snacks. Or popcorn (which will become an inside joke later on in the movie....you'll see why).
And your drink should be a weak drink at that--because if you follow even a few rules of the drinking game you will be out for the count 30 minutes in.

Warning: minor rant ahead:
A group of good people is important, it can't just be a good group of people, because one rotten person can wreck the whole fun of this. You know those types, the ones you only invite for larger gatherings because they know how to have a good time and spark great conversation, but they also tend to say mean and snarky things and therefore are less welcome at smaller, more intimate gatherings.
Got it? Well anyway, those people shouldn't be invited to something like this.

We like the nice ones. More and more I realize that nice people are the best. The mean ones just aren't worth it. They can go to hell.

So that is Step 1 to enjoying Troll 2: nice people. Fun people. People that can accept and laugh at ridiculousness, rather than despise it. No eye-rolling allowed!
Step 2 is to get a drink. Hard cider is good, beer is good, a diluted-but-still-tasty cocktail is acceptable.
Step 3 is to know the rules. There are a few different variations, here is the best version:

DRINK WHENEVER:

- The little boy cries "GRANDPA!!!!"
Yes, he will do this several times in a row, annoyingly. Take a drink for each one of them.
You will not realize how much a kid can freaking even SAY Grandpa until you see this movie.
If you have want to teach a baby to speak, play this movie on loop for a day.
Baby will be exclaiming "GRANDPA SETH!!" earnestly by suppertime.

- Anyone says "NILBOG" or "GOBLIN."
Perhaps the best part of this movie is that they are goblins, not trolls! Yet it is called Troll 2! Ha.
-You see something green that would not normally be green.
- Something happens that makes absolutely no sense.
(entire movie may fall under this category...)
-It is clear the script did not translate well.
- Something completely random and confusing is going on.
(this kicks into high gear when you are introduced to the local gardening witch that wears braces and turns people into trees.)

- Whenever you see corn. Or popcorn.
Heads up: this movie may have the greatest seduction scene ever. Involving a cob of corn.

Drink whenever you see this goblin (the deranged one on the left) and laugh.
You will not be able to look at it without laughing, that's a given.

This movie is beyond the beyond. And it was filmed in Utah, which gives me a special connection to it. I don't quite understand why some Italian director decided to go to podunk Morgan, Utah to make a movie starring papier mache goblins and call the movie "Troll 2" (where is the original movie?! Did he tack a number on it to make it seem like a legitimate sequel?!) and direct the worst actors EVER.

Did I mention that these evil creatures like to eat humans, but because they are VEGETARIANS, they have to turn the humans into green sludge (as seen above) before eating them? True story.

It is hysterical. Please watch it. Please have a good time. Please be careful--this drinking game is DANGEROUS!

Just to whet your appetite, here is a real clip from the movie. Yes, this is an actual scene. In all seriousness.

What is you username all about ?

Yep. So many interesting and weird usernames in HDNforum. Pls open up about and tell what yours mean etc.

Also you can ask/challenge users to post about theirs, like this :

@Asopp, what is yours about ???

Note I : if similar thread exists, pls delete this asap !
Note II : if you are challenged, you do not have to reply if you don't want. ! no pressure !
Note III : if you want to share about your avatar too, that is a bonus !

:thumbs: ;)
 
Asopp came out purely as an accident, i got frustrated when i was trying to figure out my username to something years ago (not HDN) I tried and tried but everything was taken, so after 15-20 attempts i got little bit angry and i punch my keyboard a few times and behold ASOPP was born :p :D I have no idea what it means, google says: American Society of Pharmacy Practitioners :wacky: :hilarious:

As for my avatar, i really love Harley Quinn :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: and for halloween, i zombiefied it ;)
 
My username comes from my love of the tv show Family Guy. Where Chris had an evil monkey living in his closet. However, evil monkey is usually taken on most websites and Xbox Live. So when my first Xbox 360 died during my second year of college, and could not recover my origional gamer tag due to screwy Xbox live setting's at that point in time on my new Xbox 360, I eliminated the n in monkey. Thus the evil mokey was born and I have stuck with it since then.

My avatar is a frame from the opening theme song to the anime show Parasyte: The Maxim. I love this show, which has just started airing on Toonami in the USA. Love anime shows since high school and this is one of my top 3 new anime shows this year, the others being Kill La Kill! and Attack on Titan.

I remember that. and in the end the money ended up being good. (in one show)

Hm, I have the username Paperinukke in quite many places. Means "paper doll" in Finnish. I chose it because I like that word a lot and it can resemble beautiful ideas and innocence to me, quite a fragile and pure username. I don't know when did this analysis got so deep, but anyway. Of course if you're not Finnish you probably won't get all that, but it feels nice to use it anyway. :D

As for my avatars, they are usually from Studio Ghibli movies, no surprises there. My current one is Anna from "When Marnie Was There".
 
I cut my own hair :OMG: , normaly after the Hubby and our boy :ohno:. Babyliss clippers they have a grade 2 :D .

I go grade 4 mostly on my hair unless I get mad and decide on a 3 THAT IS WHEN IT GETS SCARY :whistle: . It growns back so no stress :woot: .

My Avatar is just me seems like a good idea at the time lets do it the Green fuzz ball. OR Adam Jensen :notworthy: from Deus Ex Human Revolution and Mankind Devided coming up not soon enough :drool: . AMAZING Game Story and Character LOVE EVERTHING ABOUT THAT GAME :kiss: .
 
Not as important as the other members who have explained their names but i will try.

D came from my name Deon and Boy is because I'm a male .99 came from my favorite player Jason Taylor who wore 99 as his number.

As far as my avatars go it depends on the mood.I mostly have Playboy models or movies.

denizen pertains to the name of a video game that was released back in 1988. Used the title to an album I composed back in 1998 and have since used it as a nickname. My avatar is obviously that of Guardians of the Galaxy doing a Star Wars impersonation. The movie which I adored when it was released last year.

What about you, @bloodsnake007 :D
