    In my highschool there was one guy with the same name as I had. So my classmates invented me a new name...

      I was not in a creative mood when I created my current and only, screen name for my Apolyton registration.

      Even though it's not creative, I guess it suits my personality alright.

                There was once a reggae-dance hybrid artist in around 1995. He only had one famous song, whose lyrics didn't make sense, but it had a cool beat. His name was . . . Mr. President!!

                In addition, there used to be a little in-joke in my social group at my old school. I was the only American (indeed, the only foreigner) in a Tasmanian high school. Just about the only thing they knew about America is that it has a President. I was American, hence I must be "Mr. President", one of my friends was the Vice-President, and so forth.

                  Way back in the dark ages of the Internet, before the advent of web browsers, the net was a primitive, cold, UNIX-type world. User IDs (at least for my ISP) were case-sensitive and could only be a max of eight characters. I've used this ID for various things ever since.


                  You have the coolest screen-name on Apolyton, Felch X.


                  You wouldn't say that if you knew what "felch" meant in gay slang. I snicker every time I see Felch X's name.

                    Dude, I know exactly what felch means. I thought for sure he was going to have to change his name when he first created it (I posted this in one of his very first threads too).

                    I, too, snicker every time I see "Felch X" as a poster in a thread. That's why he's got the best screenname on Apolyton.

                            He should be thankful the mods are so clueless with the slang terms these days. But now that so much attention's been drawn to it he's in for it.
