Off topic but a bit of fun -- why your username?

frankiebones · 11-09-2021, 04:01 PM

Grew up in the NYC area and there was a popular DJ named "DJ Frankie Bones." I was never ever ever a fan, but people have called me "Frankie Bones" or just "Bones" for many years.

People on here have thought that I was him and I have to disappoint them.

McLaren720s · 11-09-2021, 05:00 PM

I'm a big fan of my username although my all time favorite is the Senna

Tyga11 · 11-09-2021, 05:28 PM

After the popular rapper

luckylingy · 11-09-2021, 05:39 PM

My late father's nickname is my username, out of tribute to him. No one else I've met could snag 'the' parking spot in a crowded lot as often as he could!

M3LISSA · 11-09-2021, 06:14 PM

I'm boring. My name is "Melissa and I'm addicted to M3's lol" hence M3LISSA… I sound like I'm at a 12 step meeting… anyway, nice to meet you.

Lol I know you. I think… but Frankie bones is from MY era… lol you're too young.. btw, I think I drove past your car in your driveway the other day. On SI? I won't detail where, but if that was you, we live close to one another.

Just a terribly creative pun of the best TV show ever (of course, I haven't watched it in 30 years so don't spoil it for me if it doesn't hold up) and my enjoyment of writing...at night.

Same last name is Megally and I'm a Dr. I actually hate my user tag and went to change it to just M3GALLY But it was a hassle

par__m3 · 11-09-2021, 06:50 PM

I love golf.

JDUNITNOW · 11-09-2021, 07:26 PM

My nick name is Johnny and I was mischievous as a kid. JDUNITNOW sounds appropriate for someone that stayed in trouble.

I used to play medal of honor FPS on LAN ( this is 20 years ago ) where I used lazybones for the first time. Have used it since then

also i used to sit and snipe all day long which was "lazy" i guess

KevinGS · 11-09-2021, 11:10 PM

My ID is my longtime forum name across many forums...but it started with my 2001 Lexus GS, which I so dearly loved...and sold a few years ago, with 330,000 miles, still running...and still looked pretty much like the below pix. Yes, you can say I took good care of that car.

I've had BMWs since the Lexus, but never changed my forum name across this forum and other car and even non-car forums I participate in. I may be KevinGS forever, just 'cause. Of course Kevin is my first name.

MineralM · 11-09-2021, 11:27 PM

KiloCo · 11-09-2021, 11:45 PM

I had a short trip Okinawa, then to Iraq while in college..."Operation Desert Shield" 1-91" then...on to California

. After Graduation from DI School, 2-93..... I was assigned to KILO Company 3rd RTBn MCRD San Diego.

It reminds me of a time in my life with a group of men with courage and a commitment to something greater then themselves.
I guess, I had a calling to "Defend This Nation"......

AhsanU · 11-09-2021, 11:52 PM

My first name is Ahsan, and my last name begins with the letter U.

I received many gold stickers and stars for creativity in Kindergarten, it has clearly gone downhill since.

vampire81 · 11-10-2021, 12:14 AM

bmedude · 11-10-2021, 12:21 AM
