School holidays, I'm bored pt 1: "How did you pick your KB name?"

[FFS]

I have a number plate (on the cage) that reads FFS
Which in internet speak means "For Fucks Sake"
I tried to set my aka as FFS but it would not be accepted, (cant remember why)
Actually I should get the plate transferred to my bike....hmmmm

I know how you feel!! I would katman for being so mean to you but it might be just a bit too kinky with him being family and all....
p.s. I'm so glad grahameeboy chose the user name he has instead of the alternative he just mentioned

Hahah, sorry for treading on your toes hunny, great minds think alike.Good thread missed it first time. I did search but not under(school holidays).

Am I forgiven sweet child,I promise to be more original in future.

You'd have to ask my parents - they gave it to me...

(It's just a danish variation of Michael, just like Mike and Mickey.)





Thanks for sending me on a trip down memory lane...

I remember the 2400 baud modems as well. I frequented a few fora back in those days and remember the long wait for downloads. Images were killers and videos were nonexistent. Online gaming in the form of MUDs was a lot of fun - and I spent a huge amount of hours doing so. This was on Valhalla in Denmark (the original DIKU MUD for those who know what that is) - on a direct dial-up connection (think the danish equivalent of Amberley to Auckland). I think it supported all of 16 players due to a limited number of incoming lines. My parents weren't too pleased with me spending so much time gaming online and I usually waited until they'd gone to bed and then played through until 3:30 am... The first half of 1st year of High school passed in a zombie-like haze! I remember when the phone bill arrived - ~$1100 - fortunately I had the money, but there was a lot of explaining to do, the parents were impressed... in the bad way!
Then came the Internet and with a huge selection of MUDs and the opportunity for local dial-up...

There ya go again, love ya mate, love the things ya post and I loved the danish version of Michael explanation. You had me at hello. Then what, muds, diku muds,bauds,zombies!!

I'm afraid MUDs, DIKU and baud all belong well and truly in the nerd category I'm afraid. MUD = Multi-User-Dungeon (old text based online roleplaying games), DIKU (Datalogisk Institut Koebenhavns Universitet = Datalogical Institute University of Copenhagen) and baud is just an old measure of the speed of a dial-up modem ("modern" modems are 56500 baud I believe).

Blame Cajun and jrandom for sending me down memory lane though - I try to behave these days. Especially since the meds have run out

I still can't decide if I'm a bartender or a mad scientist.

Welcome to the club

Me too, please... Good thing they aren't mutually exclusive!

Some things remain constant - and while the avatar changes it is always able.

Pt 1 of 3

[Flatcap]

I have an extensive collection of bald spot covers

[Jiminy]

...as in Jiminy Cricket, because I (sometimes) speak too much and theorize on just about anything.

[Storm]

Storm because I got the name early in my army career due to the way I "stormed" around when I was in a hurry, and its stuck ever since.

That, and the other nickname I get: "satan" -a play on my last name- is usually a bit confronational to use!!

I would have said The Sex Pistols, or GBH...but whichever. They're all good.
