Origin of ID's

Captin/Roy/Mr Cricket was the genuine article - no-one could have pretended to have been such a fool for so long and not gone totally nutty in the process.

pieman: I like pie

lardbucket: couldn't register pieman when I joined C4 and chose it at random.

roland 0.8: had my head bitten off and was a headless Thomson gunner for a while; the 0.8 being what was left and in line with other prevailing ID's eg Butters 2.0 and VoR 2.0

wide willy: a flight of filthy fancy, and a salute to Wally

jadeja vu: I thought there were too many chiefs and not enough Indians; and of course I'd been there before

'schmalzeimer': German for lardbucket, and maybe a little demented

a mouse called Gerald (a very very well shared ID): ask Zat

a mouse called Gerard: Gerald died. Was Jerry really Gerald, or Gerard? Who knows.

Would you like some Ice with that Coke?

I believe you posted something about the Dockers first .....

When? 1998?

Probably in October 94 .....

Phurt.

He did go nuts.

Read his forum.

My id is a bit of self-indugent fantasy.

theantichrist . . . had it from schoolyard days when I threw a brick through the window of a teacher's car in a fit of pique
tac . . . abbr. of the antichrist
Jorja . . . to piss off Sozzie
Hubba Bubba (Dello's forum only) . . . to prevent Anniyan using that ID again
Carl Rackemann . . . what embee said
Norfolk Ian (Dello's forum only) . . . to stir the pot a bit

doremi - was learning the guitar at the time and doremi sounds better than sarega.

macondo - for gabo

IMD Walrus - Stoopid Salman Rushdie and I was listening to that particular song at the time.

I'm bald and fat like Homer. No, really. At least that's what some wags in the ABC days thought.

It's the name of a song on one of my favourite albums. Actually my favourite song on this album is called 'Northern Lad', but I thought that might be a bit confusing as an ID since I am neither.

Your ID always gives me an image of you standing on a thorn.

Damn. I was thinking Xena.

I was thinking Appalachian, squeal like a pig, zimmy . . .

Oy, you, there's some triv to be had.
