I don't necessarily have full-time roadraje but the way people on Long Island drive pisses me eff off. Cherokees don't swerve and stop like a sports car and there's been a few times I've been forced to push the limits of her abilities. Put your damn phone down and drive!!!

Four pages in, and the guy I was hoping would explain his hasn't. I assume basslick doesn't lick bass, but I'm at a loss as to what else his screen name means.

I always assumed it was bass (guitar) lick.

Similar to a riff, but different. I could be wrong though.

Maybe it's not bass like the fish but bass like the guitar?

Beat me to it!

LOL really? You created a whole thread for that? Dude, why didn't you just pm me?

The guys above are correct. I'm a bass player and a "lick" is another name for a run or riff. I.e. Guitar licks, piano licks, bass licks.

HAHA!!!! Yup... I had such interesting screen names as "GravityBlues" because when I had to pick my first screen name, I couldn't think of one and my BLUE bottle of GRAVITY cologne was sitting on the shelf and I said, "PERFECT!", "Anonymous Buyer" from a Blenderhead song entitled "Muchacho Vivo", and Grybbon (My original Halo screen name) because this old lady backed into my s10 with her big *** OffRoad package Dodge Ram and crushed my tailgate... her last name was Gribbon. I also had "Skaad4Life" on ICQ that I stole from a buddy of mine.

Later, my father in law always called me "big guy". Hence the name.

Out of the blue a guy at work calls me Big Dave too. I guess it suits me.

I'm 220 lbs. now, I grew into the name. Having kids killed my figure.

Don't feel bad dude. I wish I was 220lbs. I'm 6'01" and 280lbs. A 12-hour a day desk job makes you gain weight like crazy unless you go to the gym on all your days off and eat like a bird

OR have a high metabolism.

I use it on a couple different forums.

I figured that's what it was. My ebay username is "JayVFamily" as parody of Jay-Z.

Dude... I really like that front bumper on your XJ. Do you have any pics of the build? That's almost exactly the design I've been thinking of for mine!

Haha, yeah it has been pretty fun reading through it thus far.

Not such a bad idea this time
