The Coolest Name?

Who do you think has the coolest user name on here? Obviously my own is lame, as naming yourself after your favourite band is hardly original. Although in my defence I don't see too many people calling themselves Bulldog's Allstar Goodtime Band or Extreme Noise Terror.
My vote is for zizoustainrod, whose name encapsulates the very essense of genius and workmanship. Also, he/she then had the sense to to arrange it all cohesively. Calling him/herself zidinesimon just wouldn't have worked.

Your '07' is indeed both unnecessary and superfluous. But try changing it. I wanted to add a gap between 'The' and 'Jam' in my name, but couldn't.

Short, sweet and to the point. Much like myself in a lot of ways!

Not just a reference to Zidane but more importantly a reference to Simon Stainrod, the former QPR number 10.
 
In QPR's History, we've been know to have a talented number 10, Rodney Marsh, Stan Bowles, Roy Wegerley, Simon Stainrod (aka Stainrodney), Gary Bannister, John Byrne to name the ones from the mid 60's to the present. Currently we have Akos Buzsacky who's recovering from injury.
 
Danielsleftball has always amused me, I want to know why he chose the left one and not the right one.

Simon Stainrod (ex Sheff Utd too) had one of the eighties great names. In fact he was probably only outdone by Forbes Phillipson-Masters, who played for Southampton, Plymouth and Torquay (and clearly had a phobia of moving north).

Of course, the O's signed Sir Stan from your boys. What a character he was.

I always thought that 'Lonegunmen' was a reflection of Andy's conspiratorial mindset. TheJam2008-09-05 11:37:41

If Andy is a conspiracy theorist, then he would've used "Grassy Knoll".  But then Lonegunmen is a contradiction.  Lone - by one's self & gunmen - plural.  Just a thought.

Why did they give your primary school a nickname?

I would have thought a transfer North to Windsor FC would have been appropriate with a name like that.HarryHotspur2008-09-05 20:02:57

Indeed there is but anyway like LG I like Danielsleftball.

And to have a shot at answering LG's question, I suspect his right ball could imply his other one was the wrong one.

Lonegunmen? Came from back in my middle 20's and I eliminated problem people on behalf of a certain foreign government! Isn't that what you want to hear??
 
Ok, seriously, Lonegunmen came from my first (& currently my main) Internet e-mail address. It was an acknowledgement of the three geeky guys whom helped Mulder & Scully in the X Files. They were known as The Lonegunmen after an encounter with Mr X (Steve Williams) in an episode when they were debating the Kennedy assasination.
 
They argued there were several gun men and Mr x h overheard them and said something like " Funny, I heard there was only one gun man" But The Cancerman was actually in a drain with a second rifle that killed Kennedy. Sorry about the big explanation but is the full explanation
