    Absolutely nothing, it was a random word that came to mind when I first registered with a website when I was about 13, and it's just stuck ever since.

    I'm one of those saddos that's into performance art, and am a fan of an artist called Marina Abromavic. Rest Energy was the title of one her performances, and it involved having a bow and arrow being held and aimed right at her heart, and even a slight wrong move could've proved fatal. It's disheartening that her most recent performance (not of rest energy, of course) seems a bit underwhelming.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 632 ✭✭✭Lyra Fangs


    Lyra- first name of one of the main characters in His Dark Materials.
    Fangs- because of my love of vampires.
    I made the name when I was about 14 and i've never thought of anything better since. (not very creative) :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,884 ✭✭✭Eve_Dublin


    I kind of regret the lack of imagination used thinking up my nickname but even now I can't think of anything cool or clever. Eve is the shortened version of my first name and Dublin is where I'm from. Yawn. Zzzzzz. I guess I like it's directness and lack of pretentiousness though. Says something about me I guess.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭HorsesNHarleys


    I figured mine would be rather self explanatory. I love them both, especially riding them!!!;) I raise Morgan Horses, here's a pic of my lovely Celtic Lady (I'm new here so I hope I can get these pics to post right):

    And this is me and my daughter on my current bike. I'm hoping to get my Heritage Softail by this time next year, but I'll have to sell a few more horses first, LOL:

    The icywind part comes from someone telling me I was cold like an icy wind way back in the day, on aol. Chat people come up with the funniest things when trying to impress each other. And 1980 is my birth year.

    It's fairly obvious when I think about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭delaad


    It was an interchangeable family reference, originally between three brothers, sadly now two - may you live in peace for ever, Donal.
    It needs to be pronounced in Donal's best, put-on, flat, North Midlands accent to get the sense of it...... He'ld want you to practice it a lot.
