Here's my story...
Back a billion years ago there was this movie called Hackers. The main characters handle was Zero Cool. Well I always liked that name. Then at some point about 10 years ago I started playing this game called Ultima Online. They make you choose a username to log in with everytime. I of course tried to use the name Zero Cool. But being such a popular/common name it was already taken. So somehow I decided I would use playercool instead. It has been my online persona ever since.

Hah. My main server is named Dade after that same character.
My name came about during college, where I was told that "I always have a devious smirk" on my face.

I used to be AdamLondon - Adam from London seemed simple enough.
but then People started asking me to teach them cos they saw me getting good results. I was far from good enough to be a teacher in my eyes so added AFC so they wouldn't request my help.
As I got better the name kinda stuck.
AFC Adam

I crack my back often enough where a coworker started calling me Twitchy. That was about the time I got an Xbox so when I had to come up with a username to play online, Twitchy was it.
