This is the first forum I joined and I didn't lurk before I sighned up so I just put my first name and last initial. I didn't realize everyone was going to be so creative. I use the same screen name on my reloading forum as well.

Mine comes from an old Jack Handy "Deep Thoughts" quote

"A smart man can look at a grain of sand and see an entire universe; a stupid man can roll around in some seaweed, stand up and yell 'Hey, look, I'm Vineman!"

Somethin close to that

Okay here's the explanation of mine

My dad got a 1985 Ferrari 308qv maybe 4 or 5 years ago or so, and because of it we were involved in this ferrari club and I was part of ferrarichat, a ferrari forum. On that board I was Ferrari Boy. What does this have to do with anything? Well the shorthand for ferrari that people were using is 4re, FourAreEE = ferrari. So in turn I used 4reboy on other online things and my email as well so I became accustomed to it.

So even on a mustang forum, I'm still 4reboy, err Ferrari Boy. Ferrari's are kind of what got me into cars so it will always suit me.

Now what happens when I'm no longer a boy I don't know... heck I'm already 17 hahaha. I will need to change it some day I suppose

ORIGINAL: Waffles

Uhmm... Because they're delicious?
I don't buy it. Either you ate so many of them as kid someone started calling you that, or you ran a motorcycle into a chain link fence and ended up looking like a waffle, or something. In fact, I prefer the motorcycle story...use that one.

Do you think anyone on this forum has actually ever really grown up completely? If we had, this would be the Four Door Buick forum. There is an old saying "The only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys." Not sure how that fits for the few females on the forum but hey, that's for them to figure out.
