    Default Usernames

    Some time ago, someone did a thread about what our usernames meant or where we got them. We've had a ton of new members since then, so how bout it, all you new(er) folks? Where'd you get it, what's it mean, anything special about it? Some are self-explanatory (RARGuns comes to mind....) but most aren't, so ante up!

    ADD - Ok, since I started this and others like Ginsue (Pardon me, I meant THE Ginsue) are tossing theirs in I'll do the same.
    Troubl - short for Trouble, of course. This was hung on me by a former girlfriend (for reasons we won't discuss here....) and my friends made it stick.
    Co - Colorado, since I found Trouble was already used most of the time. But I have the nametag to prove it...

    So that's what that stands for. I've always wondered. Kewl

    So I'll tell mine again too.
    "the" because (I'm told by those who dubbed me with it and continued to ensure it stuck) it's a title like "the President", and not a nickname.
    "Ginsue" because it's similar to my last name and while working as a Sys Admin @ US Space Command I used to always carry a leatherman on one hip and a knife on the other.

    Everyone in my battalion calls me Geardo or Inspector Gadget. Just because i have so much gear on me at all times (in and out of uniform).
