Where did your AV name come from?

[Oliver88]

Tractor I own.

At the time I joined there already was a WD9 and Farmall so figured I'd add another tractor.

[Nudge]

Well there was this girl. She had introduced me to agriville. I was in love with her. But we lived far apart. For some reason we were not talking much right then. I wanted to post something here and wanted her to know it was me. We had recently been discussing the book 'Nudge' by Richard Thaler. So I chose that. And by the way she is now my wife and there isn't a day that goes by that she doesn't amaze me.

Just your back to basics farmer.
I always remembered a neighbour's comment made when lamenting having to deal with CAIS or NISA
"Why can't we just farm?"
That's what I try to do...just farm

Aw you can't make up stuff sweeter than that.

Good for you! A great behind the name story.

[Koldkanuck]

Needed an email handle and liked ColdCanuck, but it was already used and so was ColdCanuck1 up to ColdCanuck10, so I changed the spelling around and stuck.

Once was a victim of internet theft and needed to change handles.

First thing needed was new pen names all around and any real Sherlock Holmes could figure out the rest. Such detectives might find a couple of traps that would lead to wrong conclusions...but really the objective always has been to provoke some thoughts among those who firmly believe only that which confirms what they already know.

Short story long...so far as I know...no one has yet tried to hijack a pen name that could be expanded into one of f'ers..

Mine is kinda boring now, should have came up with a better story, I guess. On some other reddit or something I saw pretty good names like Cow Paddy and some off-colour ones like one starting with Master and Buster.

[BreadWinner]

Breadwinner, I picked that because my wife has a better paying job than me. She is actually the breadwinner in our house. I guess I hoped to catch up to her someday.

[zeefarmer]

Mine is an attempt at a cool email/user name when I was in my early 20's. Say "the farmer" like Inspector Clouseau in Pink Panther. 😉

[tmyrfield]

Mine is my name.
Simply to keep what i post respectful. (I try I really do)
I couldn't trust myself if i posted anonymously.
This way i don't get posters remorse.
But mostly no imagination.
