    I was watching Epic Rap Battles on Youtube and the Mr. Rogers one made me laugh, All happened while i was thinking of a GT, So then my Name is now so. Use to be CrazyATC because my father bought my first XBL Account and named it that, he is Crazy and a Air Traffic Controller. Would have kept that but my father still uses it so I got my own when i moved out.

    Monocyte is a comic book mini series that I like. The "i" in front was only because some bastard had the name already, so I just brought it over with me to the forum.

    My name is Ken.
    My best friend's nickname is Hass.
    He passed away since a long time ago.
    So I combined my name and his name to commemorate.

    No magic with my username... When given a generated user name at work or school, it is often a few letters from your first name (typically two or three, but sometimes the whole name) followed by a few letters from your last name. Since my name is Bo Iseborn, I almost always get "boise" as username. The first time was for the AppleII computer lab at highschool back in 1982, so it has kind-of stuck and I use it for pretty much everything.

    Sometimes some dude from Boise, Idaho has already taken "my" username ;) and then I use boise66 (born 1966) or Painkiller. I got the name Painkiller from the Judas Priest song (and album) with the same name from 1990, which is one of my absolute favorites. The game Painkiller came out 2004 (I think) and was a favorite of mine for a while, and my avatar is from that game, though if you look carefully you will see that the background is the titan from the "Life is better with a titan" Titanfall trailer video :)

    Even though I'm from the UK I was living in the States for a few years around 2000 and bought myself a Cowboy Hat at the State Fair and my Girlfriend at the Time said "Oh Look the United Kingdom Cowboy" so I Shortened it to UKCowboy and added the 74 as it's the Year I was Born

    I tried to think of something that would make me look like a above-average gamer and this is the first thing that came up in my mind. I think I remember it from someone that totally owned me in SC1

    You're fine, the red letters give a good effect.

    Oh I actually found out a good story that will be my username reason..... I was watching a movie (idk I think avengers) and one guy said IM THE JUGGERNAUT BITCH! so I guess that's how I got my username. From a movie. Red letters+ fire with red flag match up nicely. Didn't notice that.
    Ok so ignore my first post on the reason of my username. Just pretend it doesn't exist....
