    Mine is self-explanatory although a bit out-of-date now as I've been a member of this forum for about 4 years . I'll need to think about how I go about changing it.

I could have used Brian, Peter, Chris, Meg, Lois, Cleveland, Quagmire or Joe I guess, or Mayor West or even my own name but I didnt want anyone to steal my identity so Im not going to tell you who I really am :P

    My name came from the fact I play bass and used to look like the bass player from System of a Down. Was called System of a Keith by most of my mates, eventually shortened to just System. I still get called it today. I'm known as Kyuss on other forums, which is the name of the best band in the world. I'd change my username here but it won't let you (and there's a Kyuss already anyway though he/she hasn't posted yet :x )

    When I was at school. My mates used to call me fungusmctavish. My surname is Angus so fungus comes from that and cos Angus is scottish Mctavish was put on't end of it. Then a RL forum I go on we had a HUGE debate on the subject of Muffins/barmcake/bread roll etc... And due to that I changed my username to Fungus The Muffin Man.
