    Soundwasteland is the name that I chose for my band when I was 16. I write and record music and post it free of charge on Soundcloud. Most people think that it is a spin off of Soundgarden, yet it's not.

    When I was 16 I was far different than I am now. I was as quiet as a mouse and when women would approach me, I'd freak out and make an excuse and then I'd run away. I found that music is attractive to women and that's actually why Jimi Hendrix and David Bowie got heavy into music.

    Another reason was that I was very anti social and found out that music was a great release form for emotions of all kinds. I would spend hours writing and recording music. My band started as a metal band yet it quickly changed to Alternative Rock a few months later.

    I released my debut album a few years ago and by next year I'll have the next one out. I'm waiting until the timing is right. On the first album due to money restraints I had to use my phone to record and I used a guitar only. I got a new laptop now so I can record a drum machine and I plan on buying a bass guitar to teach myself how to play it like I did the guitar. I'm happy that I found Soundcloud because I refuse to play in public at gigs. I don't want any money for this at all.

    I was at a concert recently to see one of my all time favorite bands, Dinosaur Jr, and a few photographers recognized me and asked if they could take pictures of me for Facebook. I was shocked when they said that they were huge fans of my band and this one chick took many pictures of me and kept 98% of them as only two pictures of me were on Facebook lol.

  • Poptart and Little Bit were childhood nicknames. Poptart stuck as a gamer tag.

    My username was based off the "Spoderman" meme a while back, then I shortened it to "Spodes" and I've used it ever since.

  • It's my name but with added a and e.

    If I could change it, it'd probably be to 'strqrow'. Team STRQ (from RWBY), and Qrow is a member of this team which the Q stands for, so I just added the 'row' to the end of strq :) STRQ pronouced Stark and Qrow pronounced like Crow. This is the handle I use for most things!

  • Bathurst 1000 challenge

  • Kenny's my bro.

  • Sonic inspired me.

  • Found ya. ;)

    I just combined my favorite villain (Handsome Jack) and my favorite's video game character of all time (Lee Everett) and BOOM! Handsome Lee. And he's really handsome so... Why not?

  • Fort:some kined of Pudding
    Lee: wee all know lee

  • I liked Kenny and I was 12 years old.

  • Do you think I like having three words in my username? How do you think this all works? By being big and being blind!

  • "By being big and being bliiind." Don't say that shit in front of people, it's embarrassing.

  • Mine is a tribute to a musician friend that died. Before he passed he gave me a disk with an CD cover he had someone draw up because he could not access the image. I could not open it either. Years after he passed and my computer skills advanced, I was able to open the image. It said Sacrificial Influence across the image. I still release music in his memory.

  • There's actually a long story for this one and I've told this like over ten times because so many ask it... Basically, my brother has gotten an Xbox 360 in 2008 and we knew nothing of gamertags or shit like that... my brother's name is Joni and we put that as gamer tag and Xbox was like "it's taken, here's other names you could take" one of the suggestions was ZillionJoni... basically, I got an Xbox in 2009 and named my gamertag ZillionJape.... and that's the long story. My brother hasn't even played since like 2010 and the Zillion name more or less is now my name now, pretty much everywhere... here, PSN. Twitter, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube, etc.

    I was in detention one day. I stuffed a dozen turkeys into the washroom toilets and caused a flood throughout the whole school. Turkeys attacking the teachers and students with miniature tidal waves. I was caught and was sent to a empty class to only write one thing on the chalk board all year.

    Nah, I'm bullshitting. It's just based on a Naruto character who made me laugh a lot for a time until he got dark.

    Mine is based on when my friends asked me the insightful, and extremely classy, question of "If you were a stripper, what would you call yourself?"

    AdamGoodtime = A Dam Good Time.

    Then I accidentally messed up when creating my account, and they don't let you change it.

  • My name is... The username my mom came up with for my email when I was a kid. It just kinda stuck.

    Was once my favorite character on the show (I liked him a lot in the comics too). Back then I was that guy who rooted for the villain in a lot of stories.

  • I was gonna go with TheKingSlayer but it was already taken, so I went with this one.

  • Do you no longer root for villains?

  • Not as much as I used to, but sometimes I will. A lot of the time I still find myself liking a certain villain, even if I don't want them to win. People like Negan, the Joker, Darth Vader, Gollum, etc you get the idea. I think a lot of us feel that way.

    I liked Kenny and I was 12 years old.

  • This one legit made me laugh.

  • I'm saying that people get good usernames and usually leave the forums and sites a few days after they've started using it,

    What do you mean? I'm still here! :p

  • My old favorite song was Shatter Me. 3 was my favorite/lucky number, and 10...Could that be my age when 3 became my favorite number? Maybe.

  • Yeah I love System of a Down. Actually, I might play Hypnotize in Rockband 3 in a moment.

  • I genuinely laughed out loud when I read the entire thing.

  • It's my real name.

  • 5 years ago i was super into Call of Dookie, and the first gun you use in Zombies is the M1911, hence the 1911 part of my username.

    I know, it's the stupidest username on here, but i'm stuck with it.

  • I kill people.

    Nah, it was supposed to be my nickname which my cousin gave me years ago, Crisps, and I wanted to use it here, but I misspelled it and I became a gang of murderers, what do ya know?

    If I could change it, I'd change it right away. To Agrael. Agrael is my favourite character from Heroes of Might And Magic series (besides Anastasya) and I used it as an username everywhere else, sometimes with the numbers "9996".

  • I picked this name because I think I'm better than everyone else. Just kidding, It's a self deprecating joke.

  • I used to be on these forums back in '14 but I forgot my username so I made a new account. Star Wars is my favourite movie series of all time. I recently got into GoT... (Book and pre-season 5) Sansa is my favourite character. I really like her Darth!Sansa look from the season 4 finale, hence my name. I remember seeing 4x10 and having such high hopes for her character and where her SL was going to go... only for her character to be butchered in season 5. Oh well.

  • I was offered a temp password for something I was signing up for and this was it. I decided to keep it as my handle because my first name starts with a K. It might look like it means something, but it does not.

  • I was watching a compilation of goal celebrations in yt before i found this forum and i liked so much Ruud Van Nistelrooy celeb. and his name too so i took his first name and his shirt number as username.
