Well I was "faZZter" than they were. (sometimes anyway...lol)

Was looking to buy a CD ROM drive, but I told my friend I was too socially challenged to deal with people - Hence, when I actually signed up, I had this name. Guess it stayed...This is the only place I use this name.

I played DAoC for a few months years ago. I used this nick on the DAoC Vault boards because everybody would always like to know which server and class the posters were for reference and sigs clutter up boards. I was reading reviews on AT for parts for building my first comp and stopped into OT one day when I was hungry but didn't know how to best cook a corndog I had from a box I'd throw away. I usually spend days or weeks contemplating a new nick, but was too lazy to try and figured an obscure reference to a MMO would fit in with all the other freaky names. I promptly got a half dozen smartass replies for my effort.

The first time i used Crazymofo was when I found a forum for the sportbike I had just bought, and since everyone I knew at the time called me a crazy mother fvcker for buying a bike it just kinda fit...

White collar conservative, flashin' down the street,
pointin' their plastic finger at me.
Well, soon my kind will drop and die,
but, I'm gonna wave my freak flag high...
