The story behind your nickname/handle...



I like deli sammiches what can i say :)

so I went with my real first name David (David Eli Aloisi) but my whole life i've always gone by my middlename Eli so it became Deli.

Even though I know you pronounce your name E-LIE because your name on here is Deli-Guy I have to work it out in my brain ahead of time not to not call you El-E. But just incase I ever do you'll know why.
 
A very long standing addiction to Mountain Dew (22 years and counting).

Anyway, years ago while in the military, I was deployed, and moved the registration of my car from Cali, to Ill. Ill gives free vanity plates, so long as they end with a number. So, Dew Me 2 was the idea, but it was taken already. My mom, in her infinite wisdom, choose Dew Me 5. (I later had a discussion with her that if dew me 2 wasn't available, the only other really acceptable version was Dew Me 69). Oh well.
 
Hey my initials used to be LAP <---seeing a pattern here??

Wow. You have to say "my initials used to be." That sucks. I will never have to say that, which is one of many advantages of having a ballsack.

Many years ago as a teenager, I was convicted by a jury of armed robbery but acquitted of the gun charge. Somehow the jury was convinced I had helped commit an armed robbery without actual being armed.

It's a lot funnier now, then it was then.
 
My name came from The Boondock Saints movie, only later did I realize it's the name of "The Goddess Of Fair Trade And Honest Merchants".

It actually works out since I do pride myself on Fair Trade and being an Honest Merchant but I'm not so much a goddess, unless I grow some boobs in which case I'll have something more to play with haha.
 
I figured the only way to scare my competition was to threaten to buttfuck them, hence when they call me a name "hey dumbshit" I respond with "ITS BOFU TO YOU MOFUCKA" or I think quietly "It's a buttfuckin to you" - but Bofu sounded better than Bufu. Meh.

Edit: actual background, I didn't want to be related to my old security-based nickname so I was drunk and typed until someone made me laugh - 'hahaha bofu to youuuuuuuuuu'. Then of course, like a bitch, I named my blog after my old security-based nickname. Le sigh.
 
Sticks: I'm into martial arts (Escrima) and other various styles, and I'm an absolute fuckin legend with the Kali Sticks.

79: when I was born.

I've done a fair bit of training in Doce Pares myself. We'll have to fight to the death sometime.

It's probably a safe bet for me because usually when someone says they are a fuckin legend they are anything but ;)


it looks like escrima. howz it different?
 
When I first started reading Wicked Fire before I joined, I saw how the noobs were treated. When it was time I wanted to post a question I had to sign up, so I just made this name cause I figured that's what you all were gonna do to me :)
 
Oh christ almighty...another one of these threads.

Okay, here's mine (again), when I signed up, I thought this was supposed to be a serious marketing forum, so I kept the username "corporate". I did corporate SEO at the time and my name is Mike.

Keep in mind, my signup date was 6 days after Jon created WF, so there was really no way of knowing it wasn't going to be all stiff and boring like I expected. If I had used my normal net nickname I would have registered as IronCannibal.

Aha! but I'm not just "someone" been doing it for the last 15 years, oh and it's not me who says I'm a legend at it, it's everyone else.

Doce Pares eh? haven't heard of it I'll have to check it out.
 
Haha. I haven't heard that one yet.

King. Of. Sparta

I'd never tell the real story again. Go with this one.

A few years ago, before I joined any forum, I thought a decent way to launder links and earn a few bucks was to make a directory. Being the hack I am, I decided to make it a cms/wiki/directory hybrid and let everyone edit pages while I did the approval of links.

I was so pissed off that I worked dozens upon dozens of hours building and only made a few bones and a couple hundred links off of it that I decided not to renew erectadirectory.com. I used forums (like dp) to promote it.

Thank God I found wickedfire. Last Activity: Feb 9th 2009 ..... yea, it feels good.

Shortened it to erect because it's more fitting to my personality ... now I'm digging the username because I get to do cool shit with my avatar and I always have the option to turn my member page into a parasite to sell penis pills
 
I normally use another nickname on the web, but around the time I signed up here, I wanted a new one.

In 2001, I went through an extremely hard time in my personal life. It near ruined me, but strange as it sounds - I was saved when I discovered this out-of-this-world incredible album by Dream Theater.

I listened to it constantly for days and weeks and it really brought me out of my misery and help set me straight. I dunno where I would have been today without it.

One of my favorite Amazon review quotes:
The listener finds himself interactively engaged with the music, craving a deeper understanding of the lyrics, wanting to decipher the difficult musical passages, and trying to imagine himself as a character in the dramatic scenes that are playing out. Yes, the “images and words” brought forth by this music transports the imaginative listener to a “dream theater.” Like the near-perfect details in these songs, the names of the CD and the band were not chosen by accident.
I still think it is the best collection of music and moods ever put together into one album by anyone.
