journey_man 0 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I was wondering how everyone came up with their nicknames. Some I know about like Fattwins and Slow. Others really make you wonder! Like Bush Pig, eskimobasecamp and Thursday... Care to share? I'll start, Journey Man is because since 1992 I have been travelling most of the time. Link to post Share on other sites

bobby12 0 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 nice thread. I was walking in the country in Philippines (Palawan) and about 40 schoolkids were playing football in school. They saw Mr Whitey and ran over shouting 'whas your name!' and for some reason I just randomly screamed out 'bobby 12' at the top of my voice and ran away. god only knows why I chose it for my nickname here.

thursday 1 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Good interesting thread this JM. I was born on a Thursday and subsequently, throughout my life things happen to me mostly on Thursdays. I met my wife on a Thursday. We got married on a Thursday. I won the lottery on a Thursday. And most significantly, I stumbled upon SJ on a Thursday. For these reasons I use this handle.

bobby12 0 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Wow, I don't remember what day any of the above happened to me. And you are not allowed to say 'I won the lottery' without some kind of exposition! Link to post Share on other sites
