Blah blah. This thread is like the nameless faceless freaks that get offed in every movie. Pointless, but necessary.

So why did you choose your username and your avatar? I'll start.

Username: One of my fave quotes is "The best revenge is to live well." So I figure my life is my vengeance because I'm very happy.

Avatar: Simple enough. The pic is an angel of vengeance. She's got a big mouth and most people will tell you that so do I in that 'in your face' sort of way.

Supermercado is the name of a 2 Skinnee J's album and since they're one of my favorite bands, I used it. It's kinda catchy.

And the avatar is of course the Clemson Tiger Paw. That's self-explanatory.

My user name comes from the fact I like monkeys and 311. "El Mono" means "the monkey" in Spanish.

I chose my avatar because I just plain like Stitch. Of course, John and Chandra got to see what I chose first for my avatar. The same thing I have on AIM... a monkey getting some oral lovin' from another monkey ;-)

well my user name comes from my aim name and the title of my website.  I ganked that from a Queens of the Stone Age song called the Lost Art of Keeping a Secret.  I needed some kind of hook for the site, and since i was working on some music and have no band, had to kinda make one up.  I do all the guitar and bass parts, and program drums and samples on it.  I wanted to make it sound less like a megalomaniacal project by including a bunch of words that were not my name (well in addition to the one word that is my name).  THe music i've done that are not covers (so i dont get sued) can be found on my site in demo form.
  THe little flashy avatar i chose is the one i use on aim as well.  Its a little logo for killswitch engage, my current fave band of the moment.  They're a hardcore band out of Massachussetts who do a nice blend of old school riffage and shredding mixed with the downtuning of numetal.  In other words, they have skill and do solos.  Heavy, but lots of melody.  Check out their newest album, The End of Heartache.

My name is from an old SegaCD game (Sewer Shark) whose playing happened to coincide with when I started playing Descent.  You need a pilot name in Descent, so...  And my avatar is leet because I HAVEN'T FOUND WHERE I PUT IT YET!  [edit: I'm now using the nicely-planetsuper-provided Eagles avatar cuz, well, I'm an Eagles fan and I'm from south Jersey]

Okay, my name is 'hidden' in Spanish (or at least that's what the online thingy told me when I picked the name.) I originally picked it for my AIM name ocultadocoraz?n.

The avatar is simple...everyone knows that I'm a pyro. Wink

My username is what I use in every forum.  Disnut8.  Disnut for being a total Disney World nut.  The eight is for Cal Ripken Jr's jersey number.

My avatar is for the Atlanta Falcons.  Little did I know when we moved here four years ago that I would become such a devoted fan.  We're season ticket holders and this year is a tough one.  Because I'm also a Philly fan and the Eagles have been my team for quite a long time.  Can only have one going to the Super Bowl.

My avatar will change once that lazy elmono gets the NASCAR ones out there.

Your stinkin' NASCAR avatars are up now, but none yet for the new schemes per request by Mrs. Vengeance.
