NICKNAMES STORIES
:
THE
LAST PART
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As some of you just did not take part to the series of "Nicknames stories"
article (too shy or too busy ?), I've decided to fill in the blanks with stupid
explanations. But hey you had a chance to bring us the truth ! Once again this
is a crappy article based upon my raving imagination. Like it or not, your
choice anyway :)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
505 : Is there any mystery hiding behing these numbers ? Well there surely
is ! If you take the alphabet then the fifth letter is E while the zero letter
is of course non existing. Then we have two Es ! And then what ? Well don't be
surprised if I tell you that these Es stand for "Erotic Earthworm". Yep the
guy likes to... do... things with earthworms !! As he thought everyone would
laugh at him he decided to hide his sexual life under numbers. You could also
think that '505' stands for how many fingers he has : oki 5 in each hand but
between them I think of something that could be counted as a 'finger'. Hum
there's still some mystery here Nils !
BOUB : it's actually the sound his belly makes every ten seconds. First he
thought it was some kind of curse and started coding on Atari. Then as a joke
he made it his nickname until he found out that coding for more than 10 minutes
brought that devilish sound back into business. He decided to stop coding for
his own sake and health.
DEFJAM : Time to unveil another Scene mystery : what the hell could this
nick come from ? What does it mean ? Well after deep investigation, it occured
to me that this was the abbreviation for DEFinitely JAMmies (pyjamas) ! Yes
Carsten is a pyjama follower ! He refuses to wear boxers when it's time to go
to bed and more than once he went to demonstrate against "Boxers Followers".
Rumours say that he was the real founder of PYJAMA crew ! They used to gather
in secret places with pyjamas on their head, hiding them (and making them choke
almost to death). Wuuuuuh, scary !
DEUN : Though his usual nickname is ST Ghost, he prefers to use 'deun'
(understand DUNE) as every summer Denis likes to go to the beach, especially
to the part of it where people lie naked (waiting for skin cancer). There he
spends hours, legs open, until some crab comes to him and pinches his balls.
Hum that hurts but why does it feel so good at the same time ??
EARX : In the Netherlands from where Pieter comes, there is a saying about
the size of your ears : the bigger they are, the bigger your dick is ! Pieter
is seemingly very proud of his 'gun' since he even shaved most of his hair to
make sure everyone can spot his ears half a mile away ! And then why add an 'X'
to his nick ? Erm I could tell you but this would be XXX rated :)
EVIL : As early as a kid Anders felt drawn to porn (who isn't ??) and he
kept himself locked up in the room, doing "stuff". Once his mother caught him
doing it, became hysterical and called him 'evil' ! Though a bit quieter now,
he has pressumably recently assaulted sex bomb Samantha Fox, but maybe you've
heard about that already :)
HAVOC : Actually his former nick was "Tall Of A Dick" but when he realised
that it would be shortened to TOAD he changed his mind. Then he remembered that
due to his uncommon tallness he tended to make every shop go bankrupt when he
entered a shop selling China or fragile stuff. After the jury decided he was
not to be held responsible for his nature, Peter decided to keep this nickname
as a souvenir.
MAD BUTCHER : He was still young (under 10) when this guy came to him and
said that the C64 was 10 times as powerful as any XL or XE. He only got mad for
a few seconds but that was enough ! The slaughtered body was found two weeks
later and still today no one can describe it without giving way to an endless
flow of tears ! Never tell him your fave machine isn't an XL/XE !
MC LASER : This time you won't even have to look for crazy explanations as
the origin of this nickname comes quite logically. Stefan has always been fond
of music, either composing and remixing. As a consequence, he likes to call
himself 'MC' for 'Master of Ceremony', a term often used in the world of
clubbing. What people don't know is that he's had a *LOT* of former nicknames,
following the evolution of the time. Therefore don't be surprised if you load
older releases to hear sound from MCVinyl, MCTape or MCMinidisk... all of them
being the same person, called MC Laser today. Maybe we will hear about MC Dvd
soon ?
MOONDOG : Eric has been known mostly for his huge editor's work. He's spent
so many fullmoon nights before his ST screen, putting a final touch to another
diskmag issue. Rumours say that during these 'special' nights, hair grows all
along his spine while his face turn to something that looks like more a crazy
dog than a werewolf. First he tought of calling himself "fucking damn pissed
off editor that's gonna make you eat your balls tonight" but even reduced to
FDPOETGMYEYBT, the nick wasn't an easy one to remember so he changed it to
MOONDOG (he also told me he hesitated between this and Sunshrimp, why not ?).
THE VIKING : as a true Swede he is, he has always felt drawn to its roots,
understand the Nordic barbarians that put some mess in Europe. Unfortunately he
went too far and was arrested by the police wandering on the streets with an
axe and sword, yelling "if you're not an Atarian, then fear my Anger !". Today
he's calmed and actually takes a rest from the Scene in an asylum.
THYREX : It's not his first nickname as Franck was formely called AceThyrex
because of his true love for guys with moustache such as ASTERIX ! So far it's
been impossible to prove the existence of another Scener in NLC eventually
called OBELIX. Then why did he lose the 'Ace' part ? Maybe when coding GFA and
finding out that his gfxman - STS - who was supposed to handle with code to add
text only, was actually optimizing Thyrex poor code ! He never told the truth
but humbly decided to be called Thyrex, thus putting out the 'Ace' thing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aah ! Believe it or not, I have had a lot of fun imagining all these REALLY
stupid stories and I hope you will enjoy my endless creativity :) Greetings are
sent to my friendly victims ! Don't worry guys, it's the last time I ever bore
you with nicknames. I'll have to think of something even more stupid next time.
