Since I joined I find myself wondering how some of you guys came up with your handles and avatars.... :hmm:

Mine's straight forward.......wait for it...... I'm a trucker.. :rofl:
 
Damn, I knew I'd explained it here before, but I found a similar thread on the Harris forum first.

I can't be bothered to type it again, so here's mine.
 
Ah well that's that done....didn't see those thread's before... thank's anyway.

ps..it's a good handle moley.. :thumb:
 
Mine is from the lads at w**k ( i'm into my Koi and Japanese culture ), I lost an eye in a cycling accident and the lads thought it good to combine some old martial arts master ( in the films ) and me together hence the name Grasshopper

Ade
 
mines dead simple, very into cars back in the day (up until a few years ago really, still into them a bit, but cant really affored it etc) and my name is Terry, so Turbotez lol
 
Mine is pretty self explanitory, i live in Corby (Nothants) and i brew. Hence the name Corby_Brewer. As for my avatar, Well ive been a West Bromwich Albion fan for around 35 years now.
 
I'm from Bolton and moved to Leicester. Got called Bolton for a while then it changed to the informal Bolty.

The avatar is me half way down Vallee Perdue, in Val d'Isere. One of my other loves is skiing (especially off piste).
 
Samarith is my regular character name in MMORPGs (massive multiplayer online role playing games), prefer to stare at the backside of a female character for 8 hours a day. :D

I first played Sam after losing a bet (back in my paper and pen RPG days). The character was so much fun that she's followed me though my online gaming life.

My real name is Chris.
 
I had a similar experience than Samarith did. It came from MMORPG's. Was looking for a good name for my very first character on WoW, after an hour searching on dictiionary.com for something unusual I found Polymath.

pol·y·math
[pol-ee-math] Show IPA
–noun
a person of great learning in several fields of study; polyhistor.

Sadly why i picked this name for a warrior (Runs around with a big sword and heavy armour) I will never know. Should have picked it for my mage (Into magic and spells). But still then the name kinda stuck .... its still something I would like to achieve in real life, a specialist in more than one field of study. Perhaps brewing and computers together would count haha :D

I'm called Max
but was nicknamed Growler after a party when with rather a large hang over a mate said that all I did was growl at people

helps that I'm a member of a society called Dirty Old Gits Society or DOGS for short :D
