So, Not really an in depth story, but my PSN is Teefmummy. With an F because TeethMummy was taken years ago.

Anyway it all started with Co-op Timesplitters with my wife, friend and his wife against the AI. We played it a lot, and without fail, at some point my wife would ALWAYS scream 'Goddamn TEETH MUMMY' because somehow that AI would shoot her in the back.It was absolutely hilarious each time. So...I went with that.

The legend goes like this, back when I was in trade school, 95', I was buying my first PC & that's when AOL was introduced to me. In fact there was a group of us in school that were all getting PCs because we needed them for school. None of us had AOL so we started brainstorming names, when someone said lets just use our favorite childhood cartoons. So there was a ScoobyDoo, SpeedyGonzales, WilyCoyote, & I chose MightyMouse. Throughout the years it evolved to MyghtyMouse then just shortened it to Myghty cause that what people would call me in games (played alot of WoW & Socom).

Yes, I'm dating myself with this story but I regret nothing!

[Fresh Tendrils]

98% of my names all come from some kind of music reference. The remaining 2% is based on a movie reference.

My original OS name was LeafyClean08. I'm not sure where leafy came from because I had yet to dabble in any recreational herbs, but I do remember it being a play off of OutKast's "So Fresh and So Clean." 08 was for Kobe.

Changed it to ActLikeYouKnow08 which was a Will Smith song on some album nobody else listened to other than me. 08 was again for Kobe.

Fresh Tendrils is for the Soundgarden song off of Superunknown. It was a toss between Fresh Tendrils and Tremor Christ from Pearl Jam's Vitalogy album.


For my gamer tags I rocked MrModernRock for XBL. This was a play off of Reservoir Dog's "Mister" code names.

My current tag for PlayStation Network is MidLifeWereWolf. This is a play off of The Cramp's "I Was A Teenage Werewolf" (which was based off of a Michael Landon movie) as I imagined 30 years later the protagonist would be entering some weird midlife crisis.

[Solidice]

no good story for mine.

randomly generated name back in early 90s when trying to create an online account for Ages of Empires at Microsoft's gaming site. (Zone.com? I believe)

kept it since

[FunkDockta27]

PSN USED to match my OS name. Somehow back on the 3 i lost and couldnt recover the password. Well being that when i picked my screenname for many a site I was going thru an amazing Redman phase (still nothing wrong with that! Lol) and On the side while logging on I was watching Bill and Ted "if you're really us, what number are we thinking of?...69 DUUUUUDES!" Well id still prefer my OS name, but what can ya do? Lol



OS name is the same but the 27 was for Terrell Buckley. He had an amazing career in GB. Lol.
