Super User Choporoz Posted December 9, 2020 Super User Posted December 9, 2020 Made it up 20+ years ago for some bbs, I think. Chop from a nickname I had for a while (short for pork chop). And appended one of my dog's names backwards (Zoro). Quote
Basseditor Posted December 9, 2020 Posted December 9, 2020 basseditor — I came up with the idea when I was editor at BASSWEST magazine. I'm still an editor and bass fish, so I continue to use it on all my social media, forum and YouTube accounts. Quote

Hewhospeaksmuchbull Posted December 9, 2020 Posted December 9, 2020 Ya all already know! The moniker is borrowed from my time in the Army, we had a guy who claimed he was half Cherokee (think Warren) his name was Brewer and was as caucasian as newly fallen snow. After being called out by his own Mother a Native American Soldier pinned the name to him. I appropriated the handle as I love to BS. 2 2 Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 9, 2020 Super User Posted December 9, 2020 Boring story: It's my old NT login from work: jfrancho, made with your first initial, and last name, limited to 8 characters. At some point, our software didn't allow you to use the same handle as your login, so I capitalized the letters, and added a space: J Francho. My name is John Franchot. The T at the is not actually silent, though I respond to "Frank-O," even though it's actually pronounced using common rules of English. I kind of like the nick name version. The name is an Ellis Island victim of Polish origin. I think it was originally spelled Franczuit, or something similar. 1 Quote
Super User Boomstick Posted December 9, 2020 Super User Posted December 9, 2020 Well, mine was taken from Army of Darkness as many of you may have guessed. Some years ago, I was playing a Counter strike source zombie mod and I had HLSS setup to play various sound clips from Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness and people usually got a kick out of it, so I started using the nickname Boomstick as well, and it was my gaming tag so it carries over whenever I need a user name. 8 minutes ago, J Francho said: Boring story: It's my old NT login from work: jfrancho, made with your first initial, and last name, limited to 8 characters.

GReb Posted December 9, 2020 Posted December 9, 2020 Mine is a shortened down version of GoldenRebel which was my username on a sports board. I grew up a Southern Miss fan and graduated from Ole Miss so it’s just a merger of Golden Eagles and Rebels 1 Quote

According to the lore, the boomstick was made in Grand Rapids, MI about 45 min from me, and Ash was a student at MSU, about 20 minutes from me. So I picked up on that one. ? 1 Quote

Super User the reel ess Posted December 9, 2020 Super User Posted December 9, 2020 "Ess" is a 30 year old nickname that a few old friends still call me. It started because some guys I worked with couldn't pronounce my last name. So they took to calling me Ess. Then another guy with the same nickname came to work there. They then started calling me Old Ess or The Real Ess. I preferred the latter, so I just changed Real to Reel to make a pun about fishing 1 Quote

Big Rick Posted December 9, 2020 Posted December 9, 2020 My father in law is also named Rick. Back in my LEO days I was a buff 6'1" and 220 lbs while my father in law, who is on the Search and Rescue team as a diver, was 5'9" and 150 lbs. Thus, to distinguish between us I was dubbed Big Rick. It kinda stuck over the years. Quote
Smells like fish Posted December 9, 2020 Posted December 9, 2020 It’s the sweet smell of success gentlemen! Maybe I’m part Jack Russell but pitch me a bass down on the grass and I’ll roll and woller on it. If you ain’t smelling fishy enough to entice a bear to cover 5 mile to get to you after a day on the water then you ain’t wiggling your worm the right way!!! ? 4 4 Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted December 9, 2020 Super User Posted December 9, 2020 Mine has a hidden meaning. I figure this way I have to own up to whatever I say. 1 Quote
