Now some people have some deep meaning to their screen names others just take what they can get and are not very creative. How many angel this or pimp that can people come up with? Some are just flat out unorginal.
Now a few people ( I won't say by name ) have asked me where I came up with my 2 more infamous screen names. There is no real mystery to them really but they do have some meaning behind the choice. Oddly enough both screen names represent a different side of the same coin. My original AOL 1.1 back in the day screen name was just Chris with a few numbers thrown in for good measure. Not very original but hey what did I know I was the quintesential noob for heavens sake. My screen name after that was sleeperman. That one didn't last long and for those of you who know me can figure out why. ( I have a horrible sleep disorder) After that there were at least 4 or 5 more I can't remember. Durring this time was when I was learning more and more about computers. I would stay up for 3 days in a row living on little more than coffee ripped fuel ginsing and 357 magnums ( legal speed ) doritos and pepsi. Durring this time period I became a rather grumpy individual and the name XeviL25 was born. Of course any name with evil in it got me alot of shit in the AOL chat rooms thatI would visit every so often. but the one thing I noticed though was that no matter what I would say in chat rooms no one would notice me or talk to me. Granted alot had to do with the name but I felt like a ghost. At first I tried to use the name ghost rider after the comic book charcter but the name ghost was not allowed so I had to think of something else. It just so happened that I was listening to Metallica's Phantom Lord and I decided to try that but the name was taken so I said ah ha how about Phantom King??? I tried it but back then AOL didn't allow more than 10 characters in a screen name so I ened up with Phantomkng. It was ok but the name evolved every so often to where it currently is LordPhantomKing. Its a complex I have. Anyway Phantom King is the side of my personality that likes to learn the ummmm computer dark arts for lack of a better term. But its also the side that is the most creative. As for the name I use here Wired Wizard that came about a few years back when I was working in the telephone industry. I used to wire wrap telephone cables and phone bricks and about a million other assorted cables. It was a fun job and I was really good at it. But for some reason one day some one was watching me work and said to me man your just a wire wizard the way you work and the little hampster in my head sprang into action. Of course it tripped a few times getting into his exercise wheel but after that it was warp speed. When I got home from work I created my new Screen Name Wired Wizard and used it for a long time. And now I am back using the Wizard name once again ahhhh nostalgia. Well thats my story and I am sticking to it. So do you have a meaning behind your screen name let me know and I will post it up for all to read. Till then
Wired Wizard
