almost 4 years ago when I was with a buddy after a long night of raving we were sitting there cracking jokes, and the words picklemonkey just came out. I have no idea how, but we got a kick out of it. I mostly use this screen name everywhere on the net, and don't think I'll ever get tired of it.

Re: What made you choose the user name you did?

well my original name was diskofreak, actually disk-ofreak :wink: its the name i always use for everything,(cept aim) but when the site was having a lot of difficulties, i re-registered as diskk, just to see why i couldn't post ( i thought i was baned for not posting in a while :FuckOff: ) turns out ms was malfunctioning, but it wouldn't let me register as diskofreak, so im disk.. as for diskofreak... i just made it up... :WinkNSmi:

[quote=tiddles";p="51324] [you] was taken :( [/quote]

Haha, That's funny...

Anyway, mine is combination of my favorite number, 313, which is the "most common un-common 3 digit number", according to my Math Theory professor. Zen is from my nick name in high-school, ZenMaster.

Go figure. I do have a good monopoly over zen313 @ most major email services. :P

My friends started calling me like that on high school... comes from the name of the national football team manager of those years, it's kind of a long story really (and I really hate that guy... but it was nice to get an alias)

Re: What made you choose the user name you did?

I was too lazy to think about cool usernames...Tom is my real name (well Thomas is my [i]real[/i] surname but nobody calls me Thomas since I am 10 or so) but the world is full of people called Tom so my name is already used on any board I ever registered but strangely TomTom not so the decision was easy. :P
