Fan - self explanatory
You could think of government workers like teenagers. You pay them an allowance, but do you get any work out them? They eat the food, put their feet on the furniture and complain loudly whenever they are unhappy.
I'm a big fan of shoot em up video games dating back to the early days of Doom and whatnot. Also being an avid paintball fan I decided to go with the fairly self explanatory "Snipershot"
drugs. there was some method to my madness, but i forget now that i don't do drugs anymore.
seriously though, moonhead was a working title for a pink floyd song circa 1969. it went through several names such as moonhead, trip on the moon, crumbling land, etc. before the boys settled for Behold the Temple of Light. At the time I registered I was listening to a bootleg from 1969 in Amsterdam quite frequently. Behold the Temple of Light was my anthem at the time. And that name was far too long for a name on a message board. So I chose one of the earlier working titles. And then used a British Petroleum logo for my av. But that is another story, for another day.(the first sentence explains this).

There's some weightlifting guru named "Doggcrapp" who put out a bunch of papers summarizing his thoughts on weightlifting and eating.
Here's an excerpt from his seminal work called "Cycling for Pennies":
Bodybuilding is an attempt to build yourself up to what you consider to be a physical ideal, and for more AE readers than not, that means brutally huge size. Brutally huge size is the result of two primary actions 1) brutal workouts and 2) a brutal eating schedule.
I've never heard brutal used as an adjective to describe anything other than violence and it's synonyms. He used it to mean something like "awesome" in "brutally huge size" and "tough" in "brutal workouts" and "brutal eating schedule."
I thought it was funny and took it as my username.

I wanted to have something that I coul duse on many different websites and not have to worry about it being taken, and I happened to have a $5 bill that day, so I figured that Honest Abe wouldn't be taken (how many people are there out there with the name Abraham?). Unfortunately, that particular spelling of it was taken, so I changed up the spelling and voila, I am now onnestabe.
Yours is one i could never figure out. Nice to finally know what the hell i was trying to figure out.
