Forget who called me by this name but it has stuck ever since; big al. I was almost 6 foot by the age of 13 and weighed about 155 then

Now, about 6'2 and 180 something

My 2cents
 
Max_DC
Max_DC is Max_Dreamcast :D ... yes the sega machine... well long long time ago, in the last century actually, I wanted to register somewhere and "max" was already a registered username so I decided to take the DC from my first import console...the almighty Dreamcast which I still like very much. However I don't use that nick anymore. My new internet nick is "Wangan"( or Wangan-san, Wangan01, depending on what's availible). Wangan is a part of a highway between Tokyo and Yokohama ( with many street racers on it ) btw, I drove it in real life and I thought that would be an appropriate name for a racing and Japan fan....

Edit :
WTF....lol great :D
I'd have never guessed the Dreamcast part. Only SEGA console I ever owned, but still is one of my favorites also. 👍

You know when you are running out of ideas, when you are digging that deep. :lol: And yeah, a lot of people thought my name came from Audi A6 and BMW M5. M5's one of my favorite cars, so I guess I'm cool with that!
 
Omnis
I thought it was Asics (the shoes) MMMMM.
Holy crap, I think I like that better. Asics and M5(the one from couple of years ago), now it's complete......

Edit: Doesn't my name look like a Formula One car from the side?

That was a year and half ago!

I just skimmed thru this thread, and look what I found: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showpost.php?p=1016783&postcount=151

Bit ironic, don't you think? :D Lots of members in there who doesn't come around anymore. Max explains his name twice in this thead, me I think three times. :P And I still want to know where Famine and Pupik got their names!

Ooh I hate reading my old posts, back then I don't think I ever capitalised any letters (except my username :lol:).
 
Famine
I explained mine in post #328...
That tooth fairy story? :dopey:

Don't worry, I didn't notice anything. :D
 
I don't know why Famine chose his name, but when Poverty first joined GTP, I remember thinking that he was Famine goofing off under another username... :lol:

I KNEW IT !!!... I thought by myself, didn't I already tell the story in the past..., and as it seems, I did :D you can really get lost in this huuuge forum, can't you ;).... Please tell me before I become one of those old men who tell the same story over and over again every time you meet them :scared: :lol:
 
Just say it out loud and it sound like I am tedious.
I saw it on a desk about 7 years ago when I was at school and thought it was pretty cool.
The whole thing was IMTDSNINVU but that just doesn't sound as good.

Max - haven't you said that once before? :D
 
I get questioned about my name everywhere I go. People ask if my parents are illiterate just about everytime for giving me my name with two J's. I like my name and wouldn't change it even if given the opportunity. I catch attention from others just about everytime I endorse a check or give my name at a restaurant.

Tch! Just think, if you were LL Cool J, no-one would ask.
