Ok. You know me. I axed what made you guys choose your avatars before just because I thought a lot of them were interesting. Now i'm wondering what you screen names mean or why you picked them.

mine is Leppah. it's close to my last name. When my friends see me, they usually just shout out "LEPPAH!"

your SN makes me think you might have skin probs (jk)


I'm always learning new stuff, so I'm always a noob at something.

Been using this name since I worked at Netscape back in the "good old days" of Netscape 2.x (1994?). Stupid end users were often referred to as "sausages" and because I got the lions share of stupid end users, someone decided I was "jimmydean, king of the stupid end users". It stuck, has been my screen name for many an online persona since.

The funny thing is that i do have skin issues. NOthing serious like limbs falling off though. Just really dry skin on legs. they look similar to a dried up pond that's a bit cracked. Nothing too serious. QUOTE]

My previous initials. I was for a short time TwinKona or something like that but quickly found out that wouldn't be a good in the long term.

I chose mine because there is a local posse called NJdirt.com So I said "self, how can I alter njdirt into something different?" ......... "OHMYGOD jerseydirt!"

i crashed A LOT when i started riding. my first trip to Whistler was for the Summer Gravity Camp, and several times a day the group I rode with would need to stop to keep from running over my stacked up carcass and playing a$$-crack-bike-rack; they yelled "mandown" so many times, eveybody just started to assume that was my name.

...as a side note, there was a day where you could get an email account "@hell.com" and i spent many years as "mandown@hell.com" which seemed fitting as well.

..okay i lied. i hate myself.
You'd be the best Jew ever! :twitch:

I chose my name when I discovered using your actual name was not cool... I didn't change my name just opened a new account. Serial Midget came from a picture of a wrestling midget who wore a bloody pink tutu at his matches. It was also my first avatar.
