We were having a food inspection at BK and my boss told me to give the cooler "a good twiceover" rather than "onceover" as they say.

That was the day I sat on the floor in the walk-in scraping moldy shake mix off the floor with a razor blade.

"Word I misunderstood in a song and thought it would make a good user name."

Where do I pick up my free pass?

Name the song, artist and misunderstood lyric.

Snoop Dogg - Lodi Dodi

Now I'm fresh, dressed, like a million bucks
Threw on my white sox, with my all blue chucks
Stepped out the house, stopped short, oh no
I went back in, I forgot my indo

Indo being weed. Do I win? 😀

I thought I was the only one who thought about the band Menudo when I saw the username "minendo"...
 
The main character from my second-favourite novel London Fields from my favourite author Martin Amis. That character is essentially the exact opposite of how I am in real life.

I always thought this meant "good game, no leave" or some variation on that. It was really totally random? Interesting.

A friend of mine was "daylighter" on an IRC channel we used to frequent. This was back in 2001 when Windows XP (aka Whistler) was coming out and we were pirating the beta builds. I couldn't think of an original IRC handle so I just did the opposite of his name. He took his name from a brand of headlights used on off-road trucks called "daylighters".

That looks like an awesome book; I'll have to put it on my list.

I always figured the "Talent" in your name was a reference to Billy Talent from Hard Core Logo, and that Keith was a middle name or nickname. Huh.

Edit: Whoops, I realized that Billy Talent has 2 "l"s (the band has one "l"). I'm going to shut up now. 😱
