A friend made mine for me :). It's like a mixture between smart and soccer. How about you guys? How'd you stumble upon the perfect name for yourself?

I was born in late December and was once a big Beavis & Butthead fan.
Probably didn't even have to explain as mines almost a giveaway! :P

I wrote in shogun as my name then thought... "Hey, I wanna be somewhat different." So then out of all the other names I could have picked to be different I just stuck a dot in the middle of mine.

I got mine from a Star Wars book. The name "Corsec" stands for Correllian Security Force. Or, as the officers in the force came to call it, "Corsec".

My girlfriend and I came up with my SN. Uhhhh it's a little mathmatical but if you have an Infinite amount of Nothing you actually end up with something. PM for formal mathmatical proof. Anyhow, I just wanted my screen name to sound cool and mean "I am something" in the sence that I think therefor I am. So..... my SN means I exist

First started out as Cane.. (from the bible).. I decided to be the evil one.. then played final fantasy II (u.s. and the best one in my opinion) and then changed it to kain.. well used to be 916 (sacramento area code) but me being the oddity that I am wanted it to look cool so put an i in the middle, thus kain9i6 was born..

better than my OLD SN.. which was phish ~~><>

11-27-2002, 01:26 PM
Well I've never been one to show my appropriatenessesssessss.. or however you spell it..

heh.. j/k

if that was offensive, I apologize.. I ask it in all seriousness and upon posting realized it might not sound nice..

but I was also assuming that welfareloser was being sarcastic, but failed to put the appropriate tags on the statement i.e.

hehe

:bawl:

damn that game was pathetic.

of course, the final score was somewhat similar to a game MSU played against another school two weeks ago, except in that game, MSU came out on top.

i wonder who it was they were playing...i seem to have forgotten :shifty:

:P j/k man.

it's pretty much open season on MSU fans right now, after the pathetic season we had :2far:

Name from high school - ordered a "short stack" of pancakes at a cast breakfast in high school (I was involved in theater) and one of my good friends just started laughing. I'm short, and I ordered a short stack of pancakes. It stuck.
