StrokerAce Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 When I started signing up for forums back in the mid nineties I wanted something unique that nobody else was using and I had (for some reason) just watched the movie Stroker Ace with Burt Reynolds....it's a bit of a cult classic - you should give it a shot. I always liked Burt Reynolds since his days in Smokey and the Bandit and thought he had this suave, cool demeanor. Plus it was unique and he always got the babes. Always have had a soft spot for Loni Anderson! Go figure... I go to sign up for Twitter and Instagram and someone else is using it so I just added 21 on Twitter and 210 on Instagram (because of course 21 was taken!) DOH! just saw this from Wikipedia.... The film was both a commercial and critical bomb. It received five Golden Raspberry Award nominations including Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Actress (Anderson) and Worst New Star (also for Anderson), winning one for Jim Nabors as Worst Supporting Actor. Also - only a few folks recognize my username from the movie... bonus to those that did/do !!

Flipper554 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I joined some forum many years ago and every name I tried was taken and finally just got it to auto generate a name from one my attempts and this is what appeared. Have used it ever since. So no it is not golf related, no flipping here. I should that the Flipper part comes from childhood, I couldn't pronounce my brothers name, Phillip, always came out flip.

Berg Ryman Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Sure, why not? Growing up in the 90's, I was a big pro wrestling fan, and I still follow it loosely. I joined a forum on a website that celebrated the worst of wrestling called Wrestle crap in the early 00's. One of my favorite stupid gimmicks was a guy called Mantaur, a big dude who wore a real Buffalo head to the ring and pranced around like a Minotaur. Combine the first half of my last name with -taur and boom, magic. Most of my other handles on social media are name flips, like others mentioned but for forums this just makes me smile. ole gray, Hackabilly, TSauer and 3 others 6 Quote In a Hoofer Lite bag AI Smoke Max, 12*, set -1/D, Project X RDX Smoke Red 50, 6.0 Flex Stealth, 15 degrees, VA Composites Nemesys 70-S E722, 19 degrees, Oban Devotion 80-S JPX 921 Hot Metal Pro 4-P, Nippon 950GH Stiff Flex CBX Zipcore 50* (bent to *49) and RTX Zipcore Tour Rack 54* (bent to *55), DG 115 Spinner, Tour Issue Staff Model TG 60*, Dynamic Gold 120 S300 SIK Golf Flo-C Prov V1X Left Dash... for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfspy_CG2 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I'm not sure if this has been done before, If so then StudQue is falling down on his thread revival job..ha So pretty simple,whats the story behind your screen name, i know some are going to be...Weill it's actually my name. And that's fine. Then maybe let us know any other screen names you have used on other forums...unless there may be warrants out for you in those places Also, if there is any good story, or even boring story behind your avatar picture. I'll start. Carolina Golfer-I lived in North Carolina for many years, and to me it's the unofficial home of US Golf, so why not. My avatar pic, is the only "action" picture I seem to have of me right now, and there was a topic a while back i think that said to post an action picture of you playing golf. I am narrowly missing a 30 foot putt at TPC Sawgrass this last September during the Team Titleist event.

Popular Post yungkory Posted January 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2018 I get teased for looking younger than I am. I spelled it "yung" as a joke because that's what rappers do. When I go to Vegas, the security guards ask me where my parents are if I'm standing too close to the tables/machines. Last trip I got carded 3 times in 3 different casinos to see if I was old enough to even stand around - I'm 32. Second part is obviously my name.
