    Try and keep up with me on this wonderful, magical tale of how I got my username:

    My name is Duggy (Though Brendan is on my birth-cert :pac:)
    Somebody already has an account called Duggy (Turns out it was me who created it a few years ago, just forgot about it)
    I add 747 to it cuz it's an easy number combinaton.

    Alas, Duggy747 was born.

    Couple of years later I stumbled across this, apparently my name was so influential that they created this after me

    http://www.duggy.com/

    The funny thing is, it was pure concidental :eek:. What were the odds :D

    Took mine from a enigmatic character from Star Trek who was never really seen on screen. He was from the 28th century and tried changing the past for the benefit of his own species by communicating with a species from the22nd century

    Yet another reason why I am completely irresistable to women.

    Despite popular belief, I cannot tell you next weeks lotto numbers/soccer results/Cheltenham winners and I am not a woman on a sex transplant waiting list.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,086 ✭✭✭soups05


    I started work in a factory in 2000 and had my hair styled like christopher reeves for the interview (brushed to the side).

    after starting i was given an id card with that photo. one of the lads said i worked like superman,then he clocked the id card and said i looked like him too. got stuck with the nickname soups. (should have been supes but the idiot could not spell)

    I added the 05 when i joined a site 5 years ago and have stuck with it ever since. most ppl in real life call me soups now :D

    Osu is the Japanese verb to push.

    A lot of people think because I'm born in the States, it's for Ohio State University. But in reality it's just random choice.

    A well known Limerick radio presenter was heckled one night on air by a drunkard, shouting my username at him.

    I was drunk. I laughed a lot. I thought to myself, "One day, many years from now, that will be my Boards username!"

    I dont actually have a handbag. I'm hard I am.


  • Registered Users Posts: 226 ✭✭GismoBaby


    one of my ex's used to call me Gismo cos he reckoned i was round about the same height as Gismo(Gremlins) and just as cute! and that was taken when i registered, as was gismo101 and all my usual alternatives!! so GismoBaby was born for boards and versions of it can be found everywhere i log into!!

    I am a frequent columnist for particular daily newspapers. I do it as a hobby, hence my user name seems pretty apt. It was also a name I was often afforded from school-days - I was a prodigious note taker!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    My user-name is the letters 'nja' inserted into my surname.

    In hindsight it wasn't a good choice because I'll be forever associated with a north-side scummer/stoner.

    All riught bud have yah goht eh smoke??

    Wha??? Iu'lll fuuken buurst yehh!!!!

    There were 4 Daniel's including myself in my class. Fights would break out over who was danny, dan etc so we settled to call each other different things.
    so i was given the name congo which somehow sounds like my surname.
    Sad thing is the lads in the class didn't cop on it was also a country till I pointed it out. But it stuck.
    The 90 is the lovely decade I was born into :)
