This seems like such an obvious question I am surprised cunninglinguist hasn't asked it yet - he has asked everything else! ;)
He did start a thread about peoples avatars but I don't think there has been one on profile IDs and even if it's been done it was probably a long time ago and there are lots of new members since then.
When I look at some IDs I think wtf? what does that mean? Is there a story behind it?
I will get things rolling ...
rooter is obvious to most people I guess.
root is Aussie slang for fuck so rooter means fucker (its probably originally british - but definitely not American - in American to root means to cheer or support your team as in "I am rooting for the Yankees"
I was originally going to call myself fucker but went for the more subtle rooter instead - but I regret it now - fucker would have been even better. I am surprised no one has called themselves fucker yet.
Anyway if I ever get banned I will come back as fucker ;)
So tell us about your profile ID and what it means and how you came up with it?

ALittleToTheLeft: I'm a huge fan of The Mighty Boosh and it is Bob Fossil's catch phrase. It also sounds sexual even though it is not necessarily used in a sexual context, which i find interesting. Nothing more elaborate than that i'm afraid

Interesting topic...
I guess I picked up mine at the lake project that I used to work in. It doesn't have sexual meaning to it when I came with it but some friends of mine have said that it does in their language lol. The bottom line is I picked it up randomly. :)

Hi brother Rooter,
Why wait ? you should register that user name now before someone less deserving got it, especially after your post !
Just look at names such as Apple or Orange !!
Cheers
Btw, Lun is one of my Chinese name, Gor means big/older brother. Lungor was my original user name until I had to cancel it and registered as Ahlungor. Ah in Chinese is like "the" or "this" or something like that.

I suggested to cunninglinguist he start this very thread topic a couple of days ago. He replied, ironically, that "he never starts threads lightly, only after the most careful and serious consideration."
I won't bore anyone anymore by re-telling my user name story for about the third or fourth time. An egotist, I am too guilty too often of volunteering personal information of the deepest interest to me and of the gossamer lightest, or no interest, to everyone else. Hell, I even started an entire thread some months ago, for Christ's sake, just to introduce my artily pretentious avatar. Cunninglinguist found it in the bowels of the forum somewhere and, inspired, started his avatar thread.
However I will re-state that my user name has nothing to to do with sex. So in that sense it is ironic.

Nice thread fucker :)
I guess my name is pretty obvious, I like to give DATY, and I like to play with words, so combining Cunnilingus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cunnilingus) with Linguist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguist) gives you CunningLinguist (http://forum.aus99.com/member.php?28169-CunningLinguist)

Mine's probably pretty obvious too - two of my favourite girls at the time of joining the forum - Hoshi and Moon! Star and Moon are a perfect combo.
Seeing that Jasmin has since then climbed up to my favourite status, if I was joining the forum now, I would probably think of some combination from Jasmin and Hoshi! :cool2: ... but the words don't really gel well together, so I might end up combining Jasmin with Mini, and use the username jasmini or something like that haha.

Hoshimooney- do not betray Hoshi !!
I do like Jasmina though
By the way, mine was probably from watching too many Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter movies.
Was going to call my self Eugene, but I prefer the magic and power of The wizard......hehe

Hey bro, you kind of remind me of a guy who has a girlfriend and gets a tattoo that says "I love Sharon" and then splits up with Sharon and has a new girlfriend called Karen but still has the "I love Sharon" tattoo.
Is OK bro, wear it with pride ! ;)

How hard did you labour over your user name, knowing that it would brand you for a long, long time? Was it a casual thing and you didn't care too much, or did you, egotists all, sweat over naming yourself? How many rejected user names did you come up with? Were the user names you rejected the ones that made your final one the best, like John West's?

Did you mention my name?
Irene at 638 King St, Newtown was my first ever punt and she gave me great service.
I have seen her more than 20 times before she moved to 5 Stars. To remember this great WL I call myself Irene638.
By the way, I have never gone to the FS shop again after she left.
I am now "a massage" guy only.

Mine was simply a tribute to a great American, and to serve as a reminder of how we can all start with very little and Climb to the summit. We either stay there or fall down..... It doesnt matter ....Life goes on and the only constant is the burning desire to spray the load again tomorrow.
So rooter is there going to be an Aussie version of meet the fockers?

Mine is basically the phonetically spelled out Chinese phrase for bro/mate - I thought it was fitting considering that we are all bros or mates in here sharing our adventures with all and learning from each others mistakes (failed punts with bad service etc)

Sorry, no offence intended, but I always thought your name had something to do with TMC's Lungor!
Hoshimooney- do not betray Hoshi !!
I do like Jasmina though
Well.... she hasn't showed up for 4 months, so I say she betrayed me first! :miao:
ok, after some contemplation, hoshijasmin doesn't sound that bad, so might go with that next time!

yup it's my online tattoo! At least I still love Hoshi, and will always do so. And... unlike real girlfriends, the girls won't be that jealous if I wear the name Hoshi with pride, hehe.

Mine is rather obvious.
If anyone is still wondering, it comes from the fact that I like ice cream in a cone.
The best way to eat it is just spin the cone fast with your hand and stick out your tongue to lip it all up.
Same technique can naturally be applied to other fine tasting desserts (or entrees), even the more savory ones.

Mine is short for slartybartfast, a character in Douglas Adams' Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy books :)
