@booshy89 Ha Ha - brilliant, I am so glad someone else got it. I was going to comment on your username. I love the radio show too, it is my favourite of theirs. It was this or Pedro, the Fisherman (how can you be a fisherman, if you never actually fish? Because I fish.. WITH MY MIND).
Now I may be an idiot, but there's one thing I am not sir, and that sir, is an idiot
My user name is simply a case of my initials and nickname at school. Boring I know!!!
My PS username used to be the same but after that big hack and subsequent shutdown for months, when it finally returned, I started a 'new' account and had to pick a 'new and different' name. At the time is really listening to a lot of 80's rock and 'Faster Pussycat' happened to be on (House of Pain if I recall - great tune!!) and the lead Singer went by the name of 'Taime Downe' (pronounced Tie-me as so many seem to think its Tame-ee or just Tame) which I thought was 'cool' at the time - its better than NikkiSixx, Axl Rose, Slash or some other 'rock star' names I liked....
A pessimist is just an optimist with experience!
Why can't life be like gaming? Why can't I restart from an earlier checkpoint??
Feel free to add me but please send a message so I know where you know me from...
TheSil, The Soldier in London, Resistance, MW, Destiny. Battlefield. Love those shooters. And yes, born and bred Londoner. Still here after all these years.
As Samuel Johnson said, "A man who is tired of London is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford".
Edit:
Oh, and I'm from a military family, though I didn't serve directly.
Colour + Animal seemed like a good idea for a username. I wanted something unique, so I went with the first uncommon colour and animal I could think of.
Der Meister is German for "the master". Aside from sounding cool and referencing my German heritage, I likely picked it due to my raging ego.
My PSN name, HeartBreakJake95, was picked by my uncle while I was at school. As a fan of wrestling, my favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels, the HeartBreak Kid. Jake is short for my name Jacob, and 95 is the year I was born, 1995.

Spoilers ahead for anyone wishing to play the first Suikoden game:
In each Suikoden title you are tasked with uniting the '108 stars of destiny'. At one point in the story, Gremio is removed from your squad, but if you manage to recruit the 107 other characters, you get him back. I'll admit, it would have been better if Gremio were my real name and I'm actually 108 years old.
My PSN name is 'Hallodandy', it's the name of the racehorse which won the Grand National in the year I was born. I'm not a massive horse racing fan or anything, I'd just seen the list of previous winners that day so it was in my head. It's weird how your mind works when you're suddenly asked to come up with a name.
Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.
I used to have quite a lame username as a kid (Mangoboy...), but I was very happy with it at the time. But it was taken on many sites on which I tried to register. So I needed to come up with something new on the fly.
Back then I was really into the Matrix and especially its soundtrack, playing the cd all the time. So I had it laying next to me and chose the, in my opinion back in 2004, cooles sounding track title.
"Kidfried" it was.
For those who saw the movie, it refers to this guy (link).
@Kidfried Wow, weirdly when I saw your name I thought of the Matrix Revolutions but didn't think that was the reason. I love those soundtracks, particularly Revolutions!

Back in the mid to late 90s in chat rooms and ICQ, etc I went by starhopper because I'm an avid amateur astronomer and well, you do star hop to find objects in the sky (most now use "go-to" software) but I still star hop with my refractor as I find the challenge more enjoyable.
So, when PSN was first introduce it was limited to 8 characters I think(?), so I shortened it to starhops.
drstanley17 is my psn name. Created as motivation during undergrad, Im an actual MD now. The 17 comes from my fave baseball player as a child, Mark Grace of the Cubs.
I read Shonen Jump manga. From old series like Saint Seiya, Dragon Ball, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, One Piece. And new series like My Hero Academia, We Never Learn... etc. As for the 86, I was born in 1986.

Baitsausage is a type of hook-bait used in fishing. I have to be honest though, it's just for my own amusement. It diffuses any tension or sense of threat when a 12-year old threatens you or curses you out but has to say Baitsausage every time.
