[whiteACID]

Some fat nobody stole my handle on myspace

[Cheebs]

www.cheebo.com

I was using "Cheebo" at various boards/aim/etc about 2-3 years before this restaurent even appeared.

[Bloodwake]

A fucking VIDEO GAME stole mine.

[Ecrofirt]

Surprisingly, no one has ever really taken mine from what I've seen.

[Cyanista]

There's a foreign Cyanista on some word reference forum talking about russian authors. 

My old handle was hellfrog, that got stolen tons.  Googling that one reminded me of my old Sims 2 community and all the lame comic/game skins I made.

[whiteACID]

I guess whiteacid is some notorious internet hacker.

[cubicle47b]

I really doubt anyone will ever steal mine.

[Error Macro]

Did you ever comment anywhere about nuns saving themselves for Christ, or something along those lines?

[Mr. Gundam]

I've never seen Distantmantra anywhere. But then again, it finds it's origin from combining misinterpreted distorted, muffled lyrics of To Sheila from a bootleg Pumpkns concert recording prior to Adore's release (Blistered Avalon sound like Distant Avalon) + the name of a song (Tree Mantra) from the band Lowcraft.

[Saint Cornelius]

Oh and nobody fucks with Saint Cornelius.

[Van Cruncheon]

googling my real name gets like ten pages of some crazy bearded scientologist-turned-folk singer and a morbidly obese java guru. ironically, i have a hard time convincing my many internet detractors that i am NOT one of those two, er, "fine" folks. :'(

[Cyanista]

   My real name googles up pages and pages worth of crap.  My two favorites are Ashley Soandso's pottery page.  "The best part of Ashley's pots is their fluid sensuality"

Trust me, these look like shit the kiln threw up in seventh grade art class.

ALSO There's a jolly fat old farming man with no hair atop his head that shares my name.  Down to the middle initial. 

[CajoleJuice]

My real name gets me me me. As well as my handle getting my online persona as well. 

[Mr. Gundam]

I get a lot of French people when you Google my real name. If you search hard enough, you can actually find me on my school district's employee listing and on a presenter's list from the Western Psychological Association's 2003 conference.

[FlameOfCallandor]

my online handle will never be used by anyone but me.

[Mr. Gundam]

I should make a PSN account with the name FlameOfCallandor just because you said that. 

[bluemax]

I always hate when I'm not the first bluemax on a website.

Googling my real name gets a crazy art house director who knocked up bjork and did a movie that was like the art house version of Donkey Kong.

[Scurvy Stan]

I change mine so much that by the time somebody else jacks mine I'm on to something new. Of course usually they are so stupid nobody wants them anyway.

[Error Macro]

My real name gets a maker of trumpet and trombone mouthpieces.  Sweet.

Your name is Matthew Barney?!?

[whiteACID]

My real name brings up a Laws of Attraction meet up group.

[Saint Cornelius]

Evidentally I play in a punkrock group named Antifreeze. This was cute too:

His family lived a three wood away from the Redwood Empire

great googly moogly.

I used to PLAY the trombone.  OMG this thread is just full of connections.

Nice.  Hey, we could start a ska band.  I'm sure it will be popular in another ten years or so.

omg YES you fucking do. that's you

i have a hard enough time keeping my OWN persona straight, much less manage a bunch of different ones.

[Phoenix Dark]

Well at least he doesn't seem like a conservative nutjob. Seems like a liberal trolling a military board

[bluemax]

Depends upon what kind of ska you're into. Shitty ska punk is still popular in Orange County and New Jersey as well as Europe and Japan.

Real ska is popular in Los Angeles and the Bay Area as well as Chicago, New York and some parts of Eastern Canuckistan.

Also Reel Big Fish has a new CD coming out, they're promising that this one will have no songs about how much the music industry sucks because they're finally off a major label.

Oh and I played trumpet in marching/symphonic/jazz bands as well as trying to play in ska groups. I also have some bass playing skill and can play barre chords on the guitar poorly.

[Error Macro]

Dang, I didn't know RBF had a new album coming out.  Yaaayyy.

I like mostly the skacore sound, I guess you would call it.  Reel Big Fish and all that.  What would you classify a band like The Planet Smashers?

And I can play upstroke triads on the guitar all day long. 

[Mupepe]

someone started stealing mine a while back.  they took it for XBL, PSN, hotmail. yahoo! mail.  assholes.

Ska-core to me is usually more like The Bosstones. RBF is like Pop punk mixed with ska. If you go their myspace it has a sampler of the new album. Its some rerecords of songs from their debut and some B-Sides from WDTRSH and Cheer Up, so it sounds like it would fit between those two almost.

Planet Smashers I guess fall into that ambiguous "third wave" category where they don't lean too hard on punk/hardcore crutches but they still wouldn't sound right in a 1960s Jamaican dance hall. That and they use the same song structure/chord progression on almost every song. Maybe they're more towards ska pop?

Because they're people, too. Don't try to make sense of my logic, you may burst a blood vessel. >;P

This is the best find: http://www.catzgirl.com/

Looks like a Korean clothes company called catzgirl. They have some pretty neat stuff.

[etiolate]

I ditched my first online handle, and went to morose.  I figured it was uncommon enough at the time that I wouldn't feel the need to fight for it.  Then AOL boom and goth kiddy boom and it became a problem.  So I found a more fitting word, etiolate and went with that.  I figured noone would use it, and for the most part that is right, but once in awhile there won't be an 'etiolate' available and I have to use etoilet.

Iron Chef was my online gaming handle, especially Iron Chef Ascalon in Guild Wars.  I used the handle for pvp only, so it wasn't always reserved.  At some point someone else started using it and even using the Ascalon part.  Not sure if they were posing on me for reputation or what, but I still get asked if I'm some dude who is not me, which is lame.  Especially since I put the name on the map, made the name have reputation in the game and then someone takes a slab of it.

[Verboten]

For the longest time, I used to read your name as etoilet (and may have treated you like one). For what it's worth, sorry.
