I live in RI and I am a Friars and URI fan. I hung out with Ryan Gomes a bunch of times and he's a really genuine person!

Why I hate my username, and feel guilty anytime someone says 'love the username'

When we had to switch to 2.0 username Jeff wrote "the positive side is that if you have any old usernames like 'StartOrien' it'd be a great time to switch your username." Hitting a creativity blank, I went as juvenile as I could and just did what the teacher told me not to.

And now almost every time I sign in I consider deleting the account and making a new name.

My father gave me the nickname "Bigsley" as a child.  I liked the ring of it, so I shortened it to Biggs after the character from NBA street.
Truuuuuuuuuth!

Fafnir is just a mythical name in various parts that I used for RPG characters, WoW, and various other forums.

Oh and Chris stole my actualy name first, jerk.

I go back to when Jeff was ranter and there were other similar names.

I chose from The Clash "Rudie can't fail."

How you get a rude and a reckless?
Don't you be so crude and a feckless
You been drinking brew for breakfast

Yep, mine ain't one of 'em though. When I signed up for Celticsblog I thought it was really cool that I got what I considered then to be the ultimate name on a Celtic's website. Years later I am still awaiting the respect that my name deserves.
