My name is Forrest. Forrest Gump. Me and Jenny was like peas and carrots. We were very happy. Then one day, Lt. Dan lost his legs....and something bit me in the butt....then I played ping pong...but he got himself new legs. And then I went into the shrimpin' business......and then I ran. Momma always said that I was a runner........etc... LOL!

Well lets see, back when I was on the Sci-Fi boards and working on my webpage, I needed a name.
I had read a few terrible things about the episode "Mighty Jack", one guy called it the worst episode ever!
Something in my twisted little brain liked the idea of naming myself after the worst episode in a show about a guy who has to watch the worst movies.
When I finally watched "Mighty Jack" I laughed.. a lot. It wasn't the worst episode ever, in fact it's not bad at all! I was very upset about this because now my name was meaningless and lacked the irony I so adored.

Many people here have taken MST related names and that makes sense on a MST board. But others have names that only have meaning to themselves. Here's a good way to get to know each other. What does your screen name mean? Is losingmydignity really losing his dignity? Why is Blurryeye blurry eyed? Is Vanhagar really that much a Van Halen fan? And what's a Afgncaap5? Maybe more importantly was there an Afgncaap 1 through 4? character mean somethin I'll that g to you? Care to enlighten? Yes, losingmyhotdiggity is indeed losing it...in a pretty constant way. Let me explain losingmydignity is in fact, unlike some of the others you mentioned, I suspect, a MST3K riff... It comes directly from Hellcats, wit LUV...remember the swinging scene? They're in the hellcatfire club getting drunk and stuff and a song is playing: It goes "I can't stand a chance on losing my baby," but bots and friend sing, "I can't stand a chance on..." well you figured it out by now. Now, I love this scene, it really cracked me up, I was nearly vomitting from laughter and genrally making an ass of myself rolling around guffawing... This happens a lot when I'm watching the show. I discovered the sci-fi board not long after watching HC for the first time and thought about it for a day or two , what my handle would be and then, eurikea! That's me: I"m always losing my dignity laughing so hard spitting beer out my nose while watching the show and HC was my second owned Rhino and well...there you go. Besides in real life, I'm constantly losing my...you got it already...

DoctorZ refers to the wacked-out scientist in "The Blood Waters of Doctor Z" (#1005). Of all the bad, grade F movies made by filmakers in Florida, this one stands out in my mind, because I live in the very midst of where it was filmed. I am familiar with all the location shots in this movie, many not more than 5 or 10 miles from my home. Most of the characters in this movie remind me of real life people I know. Florida does things to peoples minds, not always for the best. Must be all that sunshine and orange juice

Pardon my ignorance, what does LOL mean? Laugh Out Loud. I chose Ator, because way back when I was still in High School, my friend Mike and I watched Cave Dwellers and Pod People. Of course, we both laughed our asses off, and we both decided to use the big characters from those episodes as our online names. I chose Ator, and he chose Trumpy. We even made Mauspads with a blown-up face of the character on it!

Guys, it's the moment you've been waiting for: The Origin of My Name!
Okay, to understand Nightfalcawk you have to understand Cowguymaness. To understand Cowguymaness, you need to understand my fifth grade year in school. In fifth grade I was savagely beaten under the watch of a hippie, guidence consuler turned teacher. I was sent to the principal's office numerous times because I would try to fight back while the asses dug their fists into my gut. Anyway, one day at the principal's office I met a guy I'll call Naed. Naed was a weird, funny, crazy kid (who is now a Goth) and we hung out a lot. Anyway, he was kind of setting the mold for my secret, weird personality. Anyway, we were on the computer a lot and we signed up for AOL. Some kids at school caught wind of said AOL screename and started to annoy me by IM-ing me. So I came up with a new screename no one knew: Cowguymaness. Anyway, cut to 2002. Now you have to know about the Lost World. It's a crappy low budget TV show that is now off the air that I was once into. Got that? Now comes the part with Nightfalcawk.

Wow Nightfalcawk, you are really milking this one for all it's worth. I mean, sure, it's interesting but, I think I speak for everyone when I say....... GET TO THE DAMN POINT ALREADY!!!!! OK, sorry, had to get that out, Servo

My name originated from a character in the anime G Gundam. I chose that name because the day before I registered I was watching one of the dvds I have of that show and thought that ChibodeeCrocket would be a cool name for me to use on a message board. That's about it.

Okay now, Will snow was the star of said bad TV show. There was an online chat with him. I casually registered Cowguymaness but, later, rightbefore the chat I forgot the passaword! I needed to register a new name. There was a twelve character limit, so I couldn't add a numer to it. Then I registered my 2 nd favorite, nightfalcon. Some one took it! Then I tried my 3 rd favorite, nighthawk. Someone took that one too! I couldn't chat with a boring nickname like you guys! I needed strangeness. So then I got an idea. Try to guess where it comes from and get a cookie.
