Explain your name

Why did you pick that user name? If you want to ask someone then do that here to, and only explain it if its interesting not if its like yellow240z or something (sorry if thats the name somebody has).

snwboarderphat540 what does that even mean? you did a trick in the snow?
bleach < naruto?
hoov100? like president hoover 1924?
skib? where did that originate?

Just wondering those are only 4 I can think of ATM.

Lol, I coulda swore we had a thread on this already. No, HOOVer is my last name, back when email first came out, I originally put in "hoover" which was already taken, so on the suggested names was "hoov100" which I chose and has been in use ever since. (over 14 years ago)

(I am related to the president on my fathers side of the family though.)

KasbeK was a name my band came up with when messing with an incomplete set of bill board letters. it was letters from the guitarist's name surrounded by K and K to **** off our "mulatto" drummer. the Z part makes it my screen name instead of the band name.

BTW, i always have to mention, youtube Kasbek. look for the ones that aren't vids but just songs with backgrounds.

Duc and what else mike?


as for me, i like snowboarding, but that was long, so it was snwbrder, then i love the simpsons, and on their ski trip auto was teaching them how to talk snowboard talk instead of teaching them to actually snowboard, i think it was jimbo that went, aww phat 540! and then bart was like i have to poop, and auto goes, in snowboarder... bart says, i gotta blast a dookey?

and so yeah, BAM snwbrderphat540. came up with it almost 10 years ago myself.

Yeah, I was on the interwebs at an early age. I think I was 4 or 5 when I first started playing on computers. I remember this game on the apple computers at school called "soap box derby challenge" with it's uber pixel 1D video that would freeze the computer every time..

To be honest, you can find a Japanese bike with similiar performance for less money.....so I wouldn't say it was superior performance-wise. People buy Italian bikes for different reasons.....looks, sound, charisma, exclusivity.....theres just something about them that can't be replicated IMO.

lolz!!!! italian bikes like the MV and ducatti and aprilia etc, are all VERY prices, and do perform better than jap bikes OUT OF THE FACTORY, but the huge price mark up isn't just because of that, its like buying clothes from express or guess instead of kohls.


as for me, i just got done painting and repairing the plastics on my bike from the drop, i'll be posting a thread on it as soon as i get the gas tank on (the plastice cowl section for my tank got a **** ton of lint on the clear thanks to my mom turning the dryer on RIGHT when we had finished spraying the clear, so i gotta try and fix that first) it is sexy.
