Well my handle has been with me for a long time. Serial used to be my hacking handle which I don't do hacking anymore unless they are very CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES...lol. Serial32, i just added a double digit to change it up now that i dont do that anymore.
I think I've been known as Serial since about 7th grade.

I also just learned yesterday that the guy in the movie "hackers" is called Serial. Which I had no idea about and really made me feel shitty cuz I thought it was a unique name. Oh well...

I have had DizzCat for about 14 years now. Wow! Long time! I picked that when I first went online.

Where did I come up with it? Well, my name is Cathy and I have an inner ear disease that causes me to have really bad rotational vertigo attacks, the world spins for hours, ick! (also deaf in my left ear and hard of hearing in my right from it). So The Dizz comes from that. DizzCat (Dizzy Cathy)

My nickname off the web is Fu(pronounced foo). In my group of friends there's two Josh's, me and this other Josh. My last name was easier to make something of so they picked the first two letters(Fu) then bam.

I picked BurgerKing randomly, and use it on most forums. My X-box thing is ScreamnStallion, once again, dont know why. People think I'm some sort of horse rapist.

some time in the beginning of 9th or tenth grade i had a very nutty friend who collected everything that had to do with comics. this guys name was Thomas but everyone called him tempest like from the phrase a tempest in a teapot. to this day he hasn't settled down one bit. well he always was reading comics, and i got almost every class with him, being a exemplary student i had a lot of free time. i would read his comics will we screwed off. i noticed one of his odd comics, the superheros name had a % sign in his name instead of a letter o. i exclaimed that that was not fair and said if this superhero could use a % sign instead of a letter i should be able to do it also. he wrote on a small piece of paper kei9th gave it to me and said i should be happy. i am and have thought of getting my name legally changed. i started signing my name in school for the rest of the time that way even today i sign my name like that. i wanted my son to take my name and i was going to put the 9 in his name. at the time i didnt know i could so he just got my name. the 9 is silent and when people ask what i mean i just laugh. it is one of the few great memories i have.
