Where did your screen name derive from?

Mazeroth

When I was about 10 my brothers and I started playing Dungeons and Dragons with our friends. I needed a name for my mage and made up the name Mazeroth. I still think it sounds pretty cool, however, a lot of people don't pronounce it correctly. It's Maz er oth. A lot of ppl in different forums will call me Maze, when in fact, Maz makes more sense

Pablo

Pablo, my first name in spanish. Comes from my AOL name which is that, and Rock (my last name in english). My cousin started it about 10 years ago on AOL and most of the family when with a combo like that (kinda dumb, but it works [and I can remember it!]).

sda2mike

uuhhhh.....i gotta get back 2 you on that one! :eek:

Skynut

Skynut- My name is Schuyler. Pronounced Sky-ler so my friends all call me Sky.
As a kid I was a crazy little **** and my friends started calling me Sky-nut.
I like it and since I plan to get my Pilot license someday I figured it was appropriate.

Screaming...can't hear my call......

Excellent album. Master is my favorite though

RuSsMaN

A Nuclear sub? Are you kidding?

If anything, I think it's about addiction, and probably referring to heroin. 'I'm dying to live' - the struggle with addiction and essentially 'killing' himself slowly by the 'fix'.

Another lyric - 'Hand of Doom has a tight grip on me' is probably a subtle reference to Sabbath's 'Hand of Doom' which was about Heroin use.

Nuke Sub, that's a first.

Cheers,
Russ

Trapped under ice lyrics:

Trapped Under Ice

by Metallica
I don't know how to live trough this hell
Woken up, I'm still locked in this shell
Frozen soul, frozen down to the core
Break the ice, I can't take anymore

Freezing
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under the ice

Crystallized, as I lay here and rest
Eyes of glass stare directly at death
From deep sleep I have broken away
No one knows, no one hears what I say

Freezing
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under the ice

Scream from my soul
Fate, mystified
Hell, forever more

No release from my cryonic state
What is this? I've been stricken by fate
Wrapped up tight, cannot move, can't break free
Hand of doom has a tight grip on me


Freezing
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under the ice

Burnzy

Actually derived from my last name Burns, now it's my nickname. When I was a little kid, about 5 or 6 at the time, an older neighbor kid used to call me "Burnzy" all the time. I used to hate it but the name has stuck since.

George Grand

It's my name in English.

MacLeod

I dont think Trapped Under Ice means anything. That was back when all the headbangers (of which I was loyally one) made lyrics they wanted everybody to think were deep and meaninful when in reallity they meant nothing. I wrote several lyrics for the carppy garage bands I was in and they all meant nothing but sounded like they did.

How bout you guys and gals???

heiney9

My last name is Heinzeroth....so it's a variation. My grandma used to call my grandpa Heinzy. I changed it a bit. Used to have Heiney9 on an old license plate. It's stuck with me since the advent of computer user names.

H9 (someone here came up w/ this shortened version which I like)

gshisme

My initials: gsh....is.....me. Simple and boring.

Saw the Dead in Hampton Va. They were not allowed to play there, so they said the concert was for a band called the Warlocks. Best Dead show I had ever seen.

audiobliss

I'm not sure how I thought of mine. No underlying meaning. I kinda came up with it spur of the moment so I could go ahead and register and start asking questions here. I'm surprised it's as good as it is considering I was in a hurry and I'm usually not too good at this kind of thing.

audiobliss69 is also my AIM handle for audio.
audiobliss@gmail.com is my audio e-mail account.

carmike692000 is my main AIM handle. I love cars, everyone calls me Mike, so there's carmike. I'm so enfatuated with the 1969 Camaro (I'll have one one day!!!!), that's where that came from. Now, when it was the year 2000, it was so easy to say, "Oh, that's a '73, so it's 23 years old." So, there's the 2000.
carmike692000@gmail.com is also one of my e-mail addresses.
carmike692000@yahoo.com is one I came up with so I could watch their music videos and get free space on geocities.com
carmike692000@netscape.net is another one of my e-mail addresses.

mystupidfoot is one of my AIM handles, also. I forgot exactly how it went, but my computer was being really slow, and AIM wasn't wanting to work; I figured it wasn't connecting or something. So, I 'Created New' and just out of the blue typed 'mystupid foot'. Guess what - it was connecting.

axle427 is my newest AIM handle. I created it when I started playing America's Army online and using GameSpy; my GameSpyID is axle427.
axle427@gmail.com is the e-mail address I use for GameSpy.
axle has always been my gaming name. 427 is from, duh, a 427; in particular, a 1966 AC Cobra 427.

smashincab21 is also one of my AIM handles. I play badminton (my favorite sport!!). So, smashin' is my s/n on badminton forums. (smashin' comes from a smash, which is a very aggressive, downward anlged shot, by the way. Speeds often approach 200mph.) My current racquet is a Yonex Carbonex 21. Hence the smashincab21.


I'm pretty sure that's all of them.
