Appearance Of A Junky.

Trying to come up with a user name that is different and unique so I can use it for mutiple things (previous forums, Xbox account)

I'm tall, skinny and generally scruffy appearance.
I have an interest in the counter culture and certain writers of this, and the lifes they led.
One Writer in particular was William S Burroughs, and one of his best known books is Junky (which also is the reason why my names Junky and not Junkie).

Not that I look like him, but I like the imagery.

For your eyes only - William S Burroughs

Maia 25-08-2009 01:19 PM

I came up with my nickname in February 2006 after becoming addicted to Ratchet: Deadlocked (PS2 game). There was a weapon on there called "The Harbinger", which was the most powerful. I liked the ring of the name, so I started using it on MSN etc. I've been using it ever since, on all forums/websites I go on. A lot of the time, I'm refered to as "Harb" for short :tongue:

And as for the "24", I'm not quite sure where that came from. Random I guess :laugh:

Jayson 25-08-2009 03:08 PM

It's my name.

Although I used to be called Showtyme. It was basically because Eric Young (TNA wrestler) is called Showtime and Cryme Tyme (WWE tag team) have Y's instead of I's. Thus being called Showtyme.

Zac 25-08-2009 03:16 PM

Because 'Zach' wasn't avaliable. And yeah, that's just about it.

Ramsay 25-08-2009 03:22 PM

Named after a Green Day album
shame their new album is SHITE

I had a first account called Deanzyz but I lost the log in details for it so I just chose to make a new account. Dezzy's just a variation of Deanzyz but I think it's better then my original name.

Omg, I used to think Showty me was like "Shorty me" said in an accent.

LOL Same.

GypsyGoth 25-08-2009 04:35 PM

Well I am a goth, I guess, though I'm still waiting my goth membership in the post.

Also I have always love gypsies. I wanted to be one when I was younger. The idea of traveling around europe with your home is enchanting.

So I put them together and came up with GothGypsy, and that just sounded wrong.

Shaun 25-08-2009 05:08 PM

'tis my name.

Joined as 'bugsy2301' because I was nicknamed Bugsy (Bugs Bunny) as a child - I had large front teeth and ears (they grew before the rest of me did LOL) and 23/01 is my birthday.

Then was 'Picto' for a while, as it's what "Shaun" comes up as on predictive text.

Princess 25-08-2009 06:47 PM

When I joined I was princess90,because I couldn't think of anything and my dad called me Princess(actually he still does) and I was born in 1990. I changed to Princess cos it looked better. And it makes me feel special :laugh:

Josy 25-08-2009 09:40 PM
