Why did you pick your user name......???

Mine stems from when I lived at home and got bought some hair crimpers for christmas (gotta love the 80's style
) I came downstairs and my Dad said 'Ey up, here comes Crystal tips' The very first time I needed to set up a user name for something, it was the only name I could think of (and the original spelling was already taken so I had to improvise...) I have used the same name for most things now for the last 7 years

Mine is just my initial, followed by the first few letters of my surname.0

Errrrm...
I KNOW it made sense to me at the time,( I may have had a few sherberts.)
But now I just like it.“Careful. We don't want to learn from this.”0 -
My family have always called me a cheapskate as i have always bargained for some/anything freebie when buying something, whereas my DH gets too embarressed. So i suppose it was just the most natural name for me.0

My dad used to call me a freak and I called him an ogre (actually we still call each other these
- and yes, we do get on
) so combined it became freakyogre.

This was the first website I ever signed up for. In fact it was just when I got a computer. The instructions for choosing a username was for instance your favourite place, favourite annimal and favourite colour. So there you have it.Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination:beer:
