i had a vision

of heartbrokenstar in my ass


There was already a Dan

So now there are the plural of Dan.


mine is the word CRAZY

with the c and the y censored


i'll crazy you


i fuckin wish

let's get freaky baby!


it's after that bright eyes song

kathy with a k
not really, just claire was taken.


mine is from

an episode of 'have i got news for you'


i thought of that

when i saw your username


I'm in the popular...

band Sparks.


lol

they're not THAT popular...

mine is taken from a well known children's book.


They were very popular...

in the 80's.


But as you know...

I've masterminded our revival.


First word that came into my head

I think i was going to pu something after it, hence the life-affirming hyphon.


*put

Not poo.


yes_minister?

yes_are_the_best_band_eva


not to destroy your world

but that's an underscore affirming your life there...


I call them "floor hyphons"

ahem...


very obscure very bad

1980s punk single by the wonderfully named Vice Squad which I bought in a charity shop. The lyrics deal with the deaths of certain rock stars

"In a purple haze, take another pill
choke on your own vomit, die in Notting Hill" possibly being the highlight.


Not many people know this

but I am actually the reincarnation of a dove, send down by God to make this world a better place for us all


It's from a computer game

but I always thought that moker was a wicked name.

Kingpin.

Google mokershipping (my email adress) and you get loads of screen shots.


Pfffft

Its just a shit name.


It's frequently screamed by

hardcore bands: most notably at the start of Cecilia And The Silhouette Saloon by The Blood Brothers, and in the middle of Part IV by The Fall Of Troy, both awesome tracks. I just thought it sounded pretty kick-ass and to the point, especially as the other potential names were basically boring variations on my real name.


...

It's a asthetically pleasing collection of letters.


Its a song from The Fall's 'Slates' mini lp

ex-cynic thinks its me being a class warrier which is qiute flattering. My alter ego 'I Hear A New World' is the name of the Joe Meek 'space' concept album from 1960

Keep up!


my name is rob

belovich is my old old family name...but i spelt it wrong in my username ;)


i don't think that!

just having to go 'what?!... oh he's being 'ironic'' all the time is a bit wearing on the old internal logic gates.

maybe i'm just a fool :-P


that's ok

I never ever wanted to come across as arched eyebrow sub-Reevesian post-pub telly comedy - I hope not anyway!

I'm losing my touch anyway I think.


oh dear

its probably becasue I'm secretly thick or something? I must admit its about time I had a copywriter!


Simple a nickname

Despite it being the nickname of the football team Hearts, I still keep it as my nickname.


the kelis song

not the band


I wish I could remember

but I just can't...


i used mine

as an insult to my sister once. i thought it was one of my finer moments.

cos i'm that rubbish.


i am tedmaul

and i am LIVE in COSWICK!


oddly

it's the nickname my best friends ex girlfriend gave me.
weird that, we were never even that friendly. it's stuck though.


My name is Steph.

I live in Wales. I'm not Welsh. Quite simple really. And really quite dull.


purely

because i am very indecisive and unsure of myself....also i like the word


It's the name of a song

my boyfriend wrote, about some other chick.


a nickname I've had for about

25 years, shortened version of my surname. I've started introducing myself by my first name as there's people I've known since the mid 80s who have no idea what my real name is


bf

my girlfriends dog is a low riding sonofabitch, and at the right angle resembles a crocodile.

Over time the word crocodile became corrupted to Grockledile, which then became the nickname 'Grockle'

It is also a strange dragonlike creature that used to feature in a thirties and forties cartoon in the dandy strip 'Jimmy and his Grockle', and is a cornish word for 'outsiders'


"Grockle" is a Devon word

The Cornish call outsiders "Emmets", which means "ants" in Cornish.

Anyone who's seen the A30 on a bank holiday will understand why that's appropriate


It's a

Beck song


its the original name of my solo music project

back when i had really shit cheap equipment, chris - budget.... see my name is 'chris' and my songs are made on a 'budget'
brilliant


Junkstaposition

sounds 'funkier' than juxtaposition.

Yeah.


A song by The Veils

By no means their best, but more username-sounding than the rest of their songs.


I thought this was funny

where are the masses of replies?


Juat before I signed up

I was elected the spokesperson for the worldwide proletariat.

I thought I should let you lot know, via the medium of the username, in case you missed the election.


i just have a thing about dead cats.

my gf hates me for it


i spelled my nickname wrong

and it stuck like this.


well you see, my name is chris yes...

and well im cool you see, so it works like that. no only joking. I originally wanted the name schoales as thats what i used to get called as i look like paul schoals, but it was taken and so were all my other choices so i just simnply used this random one.


is there a

dyslexic paul scholes lookalike / the real paul scholes on Dis?


Mine was just the first word I looked at

it's a bit boring, and nowhere near as important as "POWER" which I could have had.


i was listening

to a song by the mighty Pickettywitch the last time I signed up. So, lots of thought went into it obviously.


mine's is after

one of the best albums ever


it's a song

by a really obscure band you probably haven't heard of.


my band back home was a Mondays Tribute

called Loosefit. the best gig we played was in a pub in Bolton to 50 mates and a stripper got onstage. Great night.


I saw a dis news story

bright eyes were playing on my birthday, bright eyes were my favourite band, I was excited, so made up a supposed one off username and then it got out of hand.


FrancescoNoir

is a stupid nonsense-corruption of Black Francis that I started using playing online games. I like it because it sounds pretentious and people tend to think I am Italian.


Dangermouse happened to be on

Sadly I didn't have a dictionary to hand when I entered my username.


.

It's my name innit.


I've been meaning to ask

Is it pronounced 'An-shull' or 'An-skull'?


An - shull


I'm

the back-up judge for Crufts. Should Judge_A go sick, then they call upon Judge_B. I'm on 24-hour call


My dad used to call me this

I thought it was my real name till I was 12


same


now I realise my real name is

nathan bedford forest


Is

it pronounced Luxury-Yacht?


the story

behind mine is fascinating. I would tell you but it's the subject of a bidding war between the major hollywood studios.


i thought it was just because

you have a sexy bum.


-

what's a gunt?


your face.


charmin

you try and take an interest...


Me nickname

From school. Much preferable to me real name.


which is?


Dean Kiely


lies


Truth!

You should have seen how angry I was when Pompey signed David James. Grrr. <---- more angry than this, even.
