Mine comes from my other favourite comedy series Spaced. Marsha - the middle aged alcoholic landlady in it, likes inviting her tenants to share a bottle of 'vino collapso' with her. Especially Brian (played by Mark Heap)who apparantly she once rode 'like a bitch from hell' when he was behind with his rent. She usually ends up drinking a few on her own and passing out with a ciggie hanging from her mouth, or puts some in Colin the dog's food bowl!

Don't feel old, feel wise
Mine bit obvious too, I am indeed Scottish and I'm a veggie. I first used it years ago and it's easier to remember if you're the same name on everything.
I think mine speaks for itself to, although in retrospect it doesn't make the most sense does it. You're either Mrs Mac or Dr Mac. You can't be Mrs Dr. Oh well, it implies that i like Mac so that's all good. Although, if I hadn't been a menber befor last nights episode, my screen name would very possibly have been Graham the Monkey.
------------------------------ All hail thou beautious nursey nymph, be mine.
mines kinda a catch phrase i had in school. It comes from the monty python knights of ni sketch but i changed it for some bizarre reason (can't remember why now) and it became ni ping niwah!!! instead of ni peng niwong!!! So there you go, rather random
my maiden name was Spencer and during my 11+ i spelt my name wrong !! hence Spence - needless to say i failed...... i was also around in 1988, but also saw 1978 and 1968 !!!!!

1988 - I feel SO OLD, I'm not but I do. I used to teach and I told the kids when i was born, they said " wow, the 70's, did you, like, wear flares? " (I would like to point out that it's the latter part of the 70's and I still get ID'd in pubs Ha Ha)
Well the blue in Monty Python is a reference to that rare (and now extinct) bird, the Norwegian Blue parrot (lovely plumage). Don't get the xp thing tho, unless its Windows XP?
"I know I'm not wearing much makeup, but thats quite rude"
again, the name speaks for itself, i first thought about having waxed_owl but then thought of this one, hope you enjoyed reading this very short rather boring story about the origins of my name. Have a nice life!

I love Spaced, and Marsha is so cool! "Hullo Brian"
Mine's from one of my favourite quotes by Mac, which I'm sure you all know!
lol that sketch is the best! Mine's just random, couldn't think what to call myself, though why I decided on "man" when I'm female beats me. Must be the drink!

i am a mighty boosh obsessive, but i thort having 'vince' or 'howard' was too predictable, (plus im not male!), so i thort i'd opt for the wise and mysterious enigma that is NABOO!!
and for those of you that have also been fortunate enough to see the mighty boosh live will know of a little song that goes:
#Naboolio, why did you have to go? #Naboolio, we really loved u so! #...Naboolio...#
Thus the name naboolio was born! plus its also my msn name, and my name on other forums.
