    I coundn't think of a name when registering and just glanced down at a box of foreign cigarettes and saw the word. I've no idea what it means. I'm going to change the stupid name soon anyway.

    What's a Brummy? It sounds highly erotic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,572 ✭✭✭✭brummytom


    Ooh sorry I should have explained

    A person from Birmingham (England)... so yes, highly erotic (examples include Ozzy Osbourne, Durane Durane, Cardinal Newman... very sexual individuals)

    In a culinary experiment last year mr and mrs garbanzo decided to start to eat more chickpeas. One night I cooked a really lovely North-African dish for a buddy of mine who was over on hols with his family from France. He told me that in the States they call chickpeas "garbanzo beans", which I never knew.

    Anyway, after a feed of porter (he isn't used to it what with living away in poncy Paree all these years) he proceeded to get sick and all one could see amongst the liquid laugh were my beautiful, beautiful chickpeas á la marocaine.

    This incident was fresh in my mind when choosing my username.

    I picked the username at the height of the Jade Goody cancer coverage. Also, I'm interested in disease prevention and treatment and human physiology and immunology in general.

    My first choice of user name was taken, and for some reason Elliemental just popped into my head (the real name is Hannah, but that doesn't work with anything, my middle did though!).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭SoWatchaWant


    Mine's a song by the Beastie Boys, missing the "h" because the email address "SoWhatchaWant" was taken. I could have put in the "h" for boards, but it was more convenient to have them all the same.

    I like football.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 245 ✭✭Black Dog


    I have a big black dog called "Sid". Initially I attempted to use "Sid" as my user name but it was already in use so I reverted to "Black Dog" which also recalls Churchill's reference to his "black dog days", days when his depression was a bother. Depression is reguarly a bother for me also.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Zonda999


    Knew there was a thread like this before, there was a few months ago, here

    Mine's Zonda999 because i've always really like that particular car( The Pagani Zonda). Must've have been thinking about that car the day i created my account. 999 is at the end because "Zonda" on its own was already taken!:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭MadgeBadge


    Mine rhymes.:D

    I like unattractive names, and to accessorise, so I took a little from column A and rhymed it with column B.
