A
song
a misinformed phase of my
life
I wanted poodle.
But alas http://www.drownedinsound.com/user/view/230
my
name.
ditto
i didn't have any inspiration
so i went for my initials and a number of no significance.
^is
Jasmine Pearson
cogito ergo sum
i'm also pretty sure i'm not Jasmine Pearson
a bit slow on the uptake
do you really think that a real individual seperate person would natter with me and my other alter-ego discodiva in the early hours of the morning? no.
You mean you STOLE my number of insignificance.
I rue the day you appeared on these shores.
You upset my assault on banality with your dilution.
BE GONE.
some eejat
Albert Einstein
Hmmm?
a quote
but i don't know who said it.
Sigh
tragically I don't know my own inspiration, weirdly enough as it was only a year ago as well.
a song!
not the band.
the queens of the stone age song?
my fave off songs for the deaf.
I just had no ideas at the time!!!
a song i hate
but a line i love
I bet you've
been looking for an opportunity for having an Arctic Monkeys-related user name for ages...
to justify.
I've actually lost the ability to type.
dunno
i was void of inspiration that day
a song
and the fact I like the word, shucks.
"aw shucks!"
hey, I should use that word more often.
it's my regular
internet "handle" (lolz).
nothing to do with
falling over firearms then?
no
it's the first track on seafood's first album. it was playing in the background when i signed up for something else years ago and had to chose a username.
a crappy play on words
that mildly amused me.
sit on it.
^^^
It's not crappy, it's ACE
You're the only good thing about my friends list, Fonz.
Ditto
(based on my real name)
My
horrible sense of direction. I get lost terribly easily and people have asked if I'm drunk on numerous occasions because of this (the answer is usually no). Also, my name is Pete.
I'd change my username to something less crap, but I can't be bothered to rate all the bands again.
the good
the bad
the ugly
I was thinking of
gorilla balls
and poor spelling
I'm irish
and i support newcastle
An album, my favourite album no less.
ever time I see your user name ^^
I get every you ever me stuck in my head "in the shape of things to come....etc etc"
or this:

Oooofff!!
CAN I SCREAM!!!!
that moment
is just fucking perfect. its a perfect punk moment like in one armed scissor when he spits "puker up and kiss the asss-phlat now"
two best modern punk tracks ever says I
A character
in a jeff noon novel.
My inspiration
Was hearing Thomas Erak scream the word out for The Fall Of Troy on the track Part IV. It just struck me as very cool.
Also from the time the riff kicks in on Cecilia and The Silhouette Saloon by The Blood Brothers. Because it's perfect hardcore.
And the song Murder And Create by Million Dead and its kick ass riff.
Also because all my previous names were just variations on my name and I wanted something punchy and memorable.
a really bad 80s punk song
with a really really good title.
i have it on 7" somewhere. it's about rock stars dying and it's by the fantastically named Vice Squad.
Mine's from a Futurama episode where Bender becomes captain of the Planet Express ship and gives Fry the "informal nickname" Wiggles.
i'm like jenifer lopez
but with shit hair
because
my peehole is cross shaped instead of round
because
I say "pass the phone" well posh like
its a song
my name is
because I'm th proprty of commander cool and I am caled jez
John = my name
Brainlove = the name of the zine and label i started. To do with the idea of thoughts leaving someone's brain, and travelling through different media such as words or music, and being reconstituted in someone else's brain as they listen / read... and making them feel good in some way, maybe people who have never met or are even on opposite sides of the globe...
how romantic
for a long time I thought it was your real name.
My friend Dave (who has 3 posts) always assigns your name to very fashionable people.
i still like to think Brainlove is your real name john
It says it on your bank statements right?!?!
Nah.
Just on label mail.
yeah i always just assumed
it was your real name, sounds right, what is your actual surname?
Rogers
Oi
It's a secret
Pseudonym of the artist Balthus
a lyric
yeah.
Dostoevsky
Ah, name dropping.
mogwai
mine is a reference to Catcher in the Rye
it's the letters on bottom row of the exact keyboard that Salinger typed his masterpiece on.
(L)
deftones song
like
*fucking awesome deftones song
mine is an abbreviation of my first name, or "christian" name, prefixed by an abbreviation of my orwellian year of birth. it's all very exciting.

name !
My nickname
A single that was going through my head at the time
and which seemed appropriate.
EvilTwin Say
This is what we are.
i dont know

it goes
Image change la la la
Image change la la la

or something like that
it should be
my theme song
i should listen to it every morning.
that would be good.
not really.
while you get on your cape and put your underwear on ontop of your trousers
my name
but now i wish i could remove the surname, and just be a jamie, cos i dont think there are any other regulars with the same name, other than JAMIE SAMPLE of course.
My reasons are boring.
They are meant to be.
But I am forever troubled by jp100's presence. And wish him incredible amounts of ill.
Not really.
because i am
the commander of cool
HAHAHAHAHA!
What a loser :D
Nice one Theo Great Buffoon
my surname
innit.
My favourite Autechre track
how it feels to drink a pan galactic gargleblaster
the cocktail in hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. geekxcore.
"like having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick" is the full description.
I just condensed it as the name box was too small. goddammit
i can't remember
but i probably thought a band member was worse than me.
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind
Cause it's cooool.
oh, yes!
that's an excellent film.
I can't really remember why
but a slight variation of 'juxtaposition'*
*it's really because i can't spell.
My pet cashew

song
1043 posts
and only now am i realising my username is a bit shit.
yo soy means I am in Spanish
and being a Welshfool I thought I'd spell the man bit with mun because I like it when people in my old local said "cheers mun". What a shit name, I need to do an i-zimbra
