I was originally DR DANGER that came from me growing up in the 70's in Maine..my nicname as I played Basketball..lettered and was ok..the Bigtime player was DrJ (Julius Irving) so I had the nic name close..I figured someone might see it from that era and contact me..
THEN
I enjoy invoking responses in people, was told about being a troll here..(For real didnt ever hear that term before coming to 'Poly!!)
Sooooooooooooooo..I changed my nicname to Troll!
This was such a neat name so thats why I chose it..about 2-3 years maybe??
I started calling me by the nicname GRANDPA TROLL on February 10 of this year when my Grandson Cameron was born
My edition says

Nice thread!
First stumbled across this expression in a soccer-manager game from the early 90's called "The Premiership Manager" which I bought in a trip to London.
Poor game really, but in the before-match display one could assign one player to take care of the dirty work in midfield. Like a terrier destroying the opponents creative efforts and players.. The players chosen in the role frequently got sent off the pitch... (not surprisingly) and was, as you all now understand, referred to as the hatchet-man..
Thought this was a cool nick since it reflects my style of play in Civ...
One entry found for "hatchet man" in
Merriam-Webster OnLine (usa):

I created mine after playing Total Annihilation and thinking "where does ARM get all their troops from?" and then I thought "They are clones!"
Carlos, mi name and 113 the ID The number also means: 13 bad luck and 113 even more bad luck, because my life seems to be that way many times
Now you can laugh at me
Anyway I was thinking about changing it to Unspeakable Horror, but it´s a bit large... what do you think?
It´s a unit from Civ2ToT in one of the scenarios.
The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power.

Some think it's from ancient Greek infantries, or the cities of Theben or Thebes...but really it's from an old Ad&D character of mine who was a pretty decent fighter. I really wanted to use my all-time favorite character, but she was a 'she', which might have led to some confusion as to my RL sexual orientation/gender...
Tubs- What about 'Billy the Boinger'?
I'm consitently stupid- Japher I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

Isn't your handle the name of some cyborgish character in "Shadowrun" as well ?
