I like the Fallout series. I was going to name myself 'lag of legos', but I thought it was to cliche. Or however that's spelled.

And here I am - with my shiny gold NEW username Very Happy

Goodbye Renegade-Masterclass - hello smartbomb Twisted Evil

So now I can answer the thread's original question :

2 - Im homing in on the 419 scum to cause mayhem as shown in my new avatar, just like a laser guided smartbomb !
3 - It sounds cool Cool

Special K is the name of one of the dj's at a local top 40 radio station, and I swiped her name.

Glowstick, in a funny sort of way reminds me of one of names I use a lot. It's not close enough that anyone else would be able to see it, but it's close enough that I can remember it. Plus I thought it'd make a cool (see: easy) avatar.

Way back when I was posting here regularly (trying to get back into it, but damn RL keeps getting in the way), my original user name was something that contained my eBay ID and a name I use on two other boards. Not that it was common, but if needed and if enough research was done, I know I have at least left enough info to get within a mile of where I lived (I have since moved).

Anyways, I chose to change my name. Reload was a song that Ministry released back in the mid 90s. When I first switched, I had an avatar of a guy picking somebody off from a high window, but shortly after I went back to my old avatar.

Agi Hammerthief
From Discworld & Pratchett Wiki

A mythical entity blamed for causing disruption and minor mischief in Dwarf mines: sometimes takes credit for alerting Dwarfs to a possible lethal working meriting the attention of the Knockermen. If Dwarfs had Gods, Agi would be their Trickster.

I thought it would be a good name for a baiter.

Since I'm feeling like a postwhore at the moment (again), ever notice how our loving mods didn't provide explanations of their Eater-names? Well if you're wondering, look no further. My explanations of their names are ambiguously genuine in good faith and most importantly 100% risky free in urgent confidence. And stuff.

Eight: So named for the number of miracles performed in a 2-hour span of any day, also for the number of lads baited to insanity in one month. Eight once beat a wall at a game of tennis.

Sheboppe: Her real identity won't be mentioned, but suffice to say she was a pop star in the 80's who wrote & performed many hits. Has really cool hair, and can make lads soil themselves on command.

Cherrie: Don't let his innocent name fool you. It's the name of an ancient Sumarian diety, the god of higher education and revenge. The Sumarians worshipped this god by throwing potato salad at live virgins. Has an unlimited IQ.

Breddan: I'm pretty sure this is a real name. Somebody told me that and they're a very reliable source. No I'm not saying who it was. Breddan can slam a revolving door.

Juan Freizwidatt: Named after claiming 1st place in the rarely-mentioned Deep Fried Lad photo contest. True story. Built a desk out of lad-skulls recently.

Tsnerd: Forget it.... he's way too mean to rip on. If you rearrange the letters in his name, he'll scare you to death. Great guy though, unless you're a lad.

Dr. Who: A real-life evil scientist who once genetically engineered a lad with the DNA from a retarded sewer rat. It made no real difference. Armed with only a popsicle stick, this mod can dismember 20 lads at once.

Lotta: Came from being told "you do a lotta work around here" and "a lotta people could never do that so well". You know how Chuck Norris is tough enough to strike a match off his beard? Lotta is also tough enough to strike a match of Chuck Norris's beard.

Rover: Named for the dog-like devotion it takes to keep this place running. Could hack the pentagon mainframe with a paperclip.

Shiver Metimbers: Yes, our revered founder and recently retired captain. An undefeated champion, an author, poet, songwriter and legendary scourge of the high seas. This is not only an Eater-name, but also the name he worked under while commanding the dreaded pirate ship Revenge. The very mention of his name will make lads cry for their mothers to this day. Cannot be killed by conventional means.

I know I missed a few mods, which is good because that's who won't be coming after me for this post! If anybody needs me, I'll be in the Witness Protection Program after this. Very Happy
