[smellytunic]

The origin of mine was from when Xbox Live service was just launching. When you created a username if it was not available it would give you recommendations of usernames that were available. I don't remember exactly what my original request was but most likely related to some character from the JRR Tolkien books. Then there it was first choice. Smellytunic. I found the name funny and how in the world it thought that was close to what I picked even funnier. So I picked it..... Then it just kinda stuck and I use it everywhere now. I can with rather high confidence sign up for an account somewhere and know the name will not be taken. :)

I lived on the Westside of Manhattan for almost 20 years before moving to Florida. Now I live on the Westside of the intercoastal. ;)

 

[Bobby Cheezus]

My last name is Grunert, not easy to say so friends call me bobby g’s. This has morphed into little Bobby Jesus and Bobby Cheezus.

 

[ReefGeezer]

I owned an LFS back in the day. Reef tanks were in their infancy. Most of my customers were young. I sold the store and got away from the hobby for many years. When I got back in, I assumed the people in the hobby were still in the younger demographic. I wasn't, so I figured I'd be the "geezer" of the bunch. I was wrong, but I liked the screen name so I kept it.

 

[Crabs McJones]

Or you could get hijacked by people with a twisted sense of humor.

Is it back to normal now?

 

[WVNed]

Is it back to normal now?

It is
thanks

 

[Sallstrom]

Sällström is my family name, but took away the dots above ä and ö to make it less hard for all non Swedish speaking people on here ;)

 

[reacclimating 2 the hobby]

Had my first tank in the early 2000s... went tankless for around a decade. Came back to all new technology and ideas.

Nurse Ned for 3 weeks while taking care of my wife after shoulder surgery.
WVNed again. I have used this name for years on all sorts of forums. It is also the watermark I put on photos.

 

[Billdogg]

I got mine from the daughter of the woman I was dating back when the internet was a new thing. Don't date her anymore - the wife would get kinda ticked of I did - but I've used it for so long on so many sites that it's become a part of me.
