jwr0201 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Where did everyone get the idea for their usernames? Pet's name, some deep, dark secret or just pulled it out of an orifice? Sure to be some interesting stories here. Mine is part of my dad's USAF military service number. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cigcars Posted August 14, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2016 'Love cute little doggies, am a retired cop, prior military (U.S. Army), and my sister had emailed this cute little photo to me, so with much effort and dogged determination, I uploaded this image as my "avatar". I also love cars as well as cigars. I had authored a coffee table book (as of yet unpublished) that I named "CigCars", c. 1997, comparing various makes and models of cars to brands of cigars. Very opinionated, no doubt, and thus - that's my Username! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonescej Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Mine is my default username across most of my online services. Jonescej = last name (Jones) + first initial (C for Craig) + middle initial (E) + last initial (J for Jones). Not very original, hard to say, harder still for others to remember, but it's what I use for almost everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stogieluver Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 "stogieluver". You can figure it out. My avatar is a photo I took of a Cuban tobacco farmer who is rolling a farm roll for our tour group to smoke. I have some doubt that he is a real tobacco farmer, but may likely have been an "actor" of sorts to entertain the bus loads of tour groups who visit his "farm" in Vinales. Who knows, it's Cuba, but he really fits the part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fumadoro Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 In high school my group of friends would all hangout, smoke cigars, and drink our parent's booze after jazz band performances. We were naughty, but we developed a deep appreciation for good cigars and alcohol. We were also Spanish language students so we thought it would be funny to name our motley crew "Los Fumadoros"; a mis-translation for "the smokers". I just kept the mistake and made it improperly singular. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TabacoLibre Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Libertarian guy who hates regulations (especially when hindering my smoking hobby). Plus native Spanish speaker (and TabacoLibre sounds cooler than FreeTobacco). Picture randomly taken from the internet because it looked artistic and I also love coffee.
