What's the meaning of your screen name?

[Nukie 2]

My name is the jokingly imagined sequel to the hideous movie  known as "Nukie".

[Trevor]

My name is the jokingly imagined sequel to the hideous movie  known as "Nukie".

The poor chap who directed Nukie never directed another film, unfortunately. 

[Nukie 2]

I threaten to make a sequel of Nukie in hopefully the vein of  "Meet the Feebles" meets "Dead Alive" meets "The Toxic Avenger" meets-- I can't put my finger on it.
Just imagine alot more snot, tourture; intentional doofus charactures of Heads of States (Bush, Blair, Castro) and Terrorists (Bin Laden, Zarkawi), and alot of gore.

Same plot but in 2005 in Iraq and Guantamo Bay and Cuba.

The title I got in mind; "Nukie 2: Searching in Iraq".

But then again, too much effort!

[Pilgermann]

I swiped mine from a book title: Pilgermann by Russell Hoban.  Hoban is one of my favorite authors and Pilgermann is an astounding book.  Here's part of a summary from a Hoban website:

It's arguable, I suppose, that you haven't really had a bad day until early one morning, fresh from an adulterous tryst with a transcendently beautiful tax-collector's wife who bears the name of wisdom, you are cornered by a Jew-hating mob in the middle of a pogrom who throw you to the cobblestones, brutally castrate you and feed your genitals to a sow. That's what happens to Pilgermann, a German Jew of the 11th century, and in the aftermath of this horrific event, he finds himself selling all of his possessions and setting off on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, at the time of the First Crusade during the years 1096 to 1098. His traveling companions include Bruder Pförtner, an acid-tongued, priapic apparition of death; the headless corpse of the tax-collector whose wife Pilgermann slept with; and the ghost of the sow who ate his "proper parts."

[Doggett]

Doggett's my favourite X Files character.

[BTM]

Well, mine's rather simple, BTM stands for Break the Madness, which is my yahoo email, which in turn, is based on a Cirrus song I really like.

Avatar is obvious, it's the signature character of the 80s Garbage Pail Kids cards.  :)

[Saucerman]

Well, Saucerman comes from the film Invasion of the Saucermen. 

Ever since I was a small child, I've been obsessed with monsters, and my local public library was very well-stocked with books about monster movies of the '30s, '40s, and '50s, and in one of those, I found a photograph of one of the Saucermen.  Something about it scared the everloving bejesus out of me.  I had a lot of nightmares about one of those Bug-Eyed Monsters coming after me. 

About a year ago, I decided to break from the pattern I'd gotten into of using "punc_e" or some variant thereof (an informal shortening of "Punctuated Equilibria," a theory that evolution occurs in fits and starts, rather than at a steady, gradual pace -- my use of the name is a remnant from the time I spent as a biologist-to-be) as my username for everything, and since shortly before this time, I'd begun building my B-movie collection in earnest, the name of my oldest boogeyman seemed fitting. 

As for my avatar...it seemed fitting.  I found it as someone else's avatar on Livejournal and appropriated it.  It looks like it might be some sort of video game sprite, though if it is, I don't know from what game. 

[Void Mother]

It is to due with my almost chaos-gnostic beliefs, interest in the occult and luciferian leanings. Void - for coming from nothing (going back to the nothingness also). Mother - the cosmic womb, where all life stems from.

Science and the occult play a very important role in my life. Even more so now that Dark matter has nearly been found and confirmed, as it ties all my beliefs together even stronger. It's great, because no-one can ever say that I argue my beliefs or push them on others because I pretty much believe in nothing! 

[VenomX73]

I was stung by a black killer bee when I was 7. I just made it to the hospital...
I remember my grandparents telling me I had 'venom in my blood'.



plus - my favorite marvel character is Venom

I put the X and #s at the end because all of those bad movie spaceship names - X15, X1000 etc...

[claws]

I wanted something simple with a tiny bit of an edge, also reflecting my love for horror movies.

[Flangepart]

Back in the late 80's I was listening to Gary Burbank on WLW am 700 out of Cincinnati.
I started writing letters to him, and he liked it when I created the characters of the Columbus State Home for the Reality Impaired. I went with it for a long time, and he even encoureged me to try writing for his show. Sadly, I just wasn't ready for a pro gig like that.
I made up a cast of loons with funny names. Flangepart was one of the weirdos who lived there, but my letters were from Meatloaf Mike.

[HappyGilmore]

Well, while it may not be a great film, I love Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore.

And given his outbursts of anger and my...anger control issues, it made sense.  I guess. 

[Umaril Has Returned]

Umaril The Unfeathered.....The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion

Not sure of how the unfeathered part came into it,  but Umaril was the last of the great Ayleid (Heartkand High Elf) sorceror kings of Tamriel. He was slain by Pelinal Whitestrake, one of the Knights Of The Nine as they battled in White Gold Tower in the Imperial City.
Thousands of years later, he was reborn in the fires of Oblivion and swore to once again wreak havoc on Tamriel. He resides in his former palace of Garlas Malatar, on the western edge of the Abecean Sea, with his Auroran guards.

And yes, he is single    

[Trevor]

My name is Trevor, the avatar pic is of me at film school in 2011 and I guess my folks liked the name. My middle name is Thomas, after my Dad.

Wait...exactly what are your full initials, my lad?
