how did you come up with your username? do your friends call you that as a nickname or something or did you just think the name was catchy?

my name came about because I am a fan of the Illini.

My name use to be 'JPZ' but that was taken by every website. It was my initials.
So I shortened it to JP
Added Juice cause its fun to say (To me anyway)

Well, Homeslice is apparently the long version of a name like Homey or Homeboy.
My bro says he heard it during high school in the '80s, and I liked that name so I've stuck with it. I use it pretty much everywhere in the Internet and gaming world.

I've definitely heard homeslice in a lot of different places, never at school though.
My username came from AOL, the common pattern was; Pick a nickname and wrap it in something patternistic. Ix<name>xI, Oo<name>oO, Xx<name>xX, I'm pretty sure I bumped into some people also using Vx-xV, but I don't explicitly remember. There was also Vv<name>vV.
I didn't have a nickname, and I really don't care too, so I just used my name.

I was pretty lazy with my Username, A while back I got the Kamen Rider Leangle DX Belt, Well the place sending it was a pain in the a**, it was ordered of november that year and didn't get there until march of the next year, so shortly after that at a forum I said "Screw it! If I've got this after all this trouble I damn well am getting mileage out of it", Used that name ever since and don't even remember where I first used it. Just dropped the word "Kamen" and removed the space so Kamen Rider Leangle turned to Rider Leangle into RiderLeangle, If registration goes wrong (like at G4's forums, I registered when it was sucky software and never got the first email) or if it's taken like at Youtube I just use RiderRengeru, Which is exactly the same thing, just switching Leangle to the way it's pronounced in japanese like the actual show. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider_LeangleAbbreviated version: I already have a real name that most people THINK is a username.. so I go with that ಠ_ಠ

My username come from my nationality. The "sc" stands for "Scottish" and the "noi" actually stands for pinoy, or Filipino. However, I didn't like how "scnoy" looked so I changed it to "scnoi". So, when you say scnoi you are saying Scottish Filipino, which I am.
The 1217 was the number of my old house.

My name tx comes from that female terminator in Terminator 3 and the 138 was just a random number I thought of.
At scnoi: Guess I'm not the only Filipino in this board.

Uhm... My brother was thinking of cool names while we were eating at a mexican restaurant.
He saw a budlight sign and thought of Badalight.
I told him that was the stupidest and most uncreative name ever. However, a long time ago while registering for a certain site I couldn't think of anything to use, so I stole his name.
And since then I've used it for everything, Youtube, and even G4.
When these forums were created I simply tried being funny and spelt it backwards.
If you didn't know.... I AM BADALIGHT FROM THE G4 FORUMS. LAST TIME I'M SAYING IT.
