About All of Those Nicknames

halloween2006.jpg

On the internet, most people know me by my TVgasm moniker, J-Unit. When I started this blog, there were a number of ways that I could go. My middle name, Manga, has always been distinctive, but using it on the internet tends to make people believe you are a fan of anime porn. J-Unit is great, and seems to go with my personality, but if people don't know why I call myself J-Unit, I look like a poseur. Plus, the domain names are taken. I have used other various names on the internet like Remy Martin, Boende (my birthplace), and DrPepper, but eventually decided on Mokers.

In my mother's native language, Joe Moke (prounounced moh-kay) means little Joe. My father and grandfather are named Joe, so the name fit, until I was about 14 or 15 at least. A lot of my family calls me Mokers and the name is catchy and unique and the domain was available, so that is what I will be using here. That being said, I still answer to J-Unit, JoJo, and of course "Coolest, Smartest, Most Kick-ass Kid on the Planet", so feel free to use whatever you are comfortable.

As for the blog, I am still feeling out what I want to do with it. A short story here (I'm not talking about fan fiction though), a dream interpretation there, perhaps a restaurant review or something. I am already planning a weekend of Wii drunkeness. I haven't told Water Bottle about it yet, but my old friend Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice is sitting next to me and thinks it would be a great idea.

Might I suggest a combo? J-Mo? Nah, I like Coolest, Smartest, Most Kick-ass Kid on the Planet. It has a nicer ring. Very cool story about your name, thanks for sharing.

A Drunken Wii Weekend sounds AWESOME. Since it has come out, we play at least a round of Tiger Woods Golf here at the Pub every evening. It's very addictive. And that says a lot since I don't golf and I suck at video games.

Personal experiences belong on personal experience blogs, Joe! Oh wait, that's what this is.

How funny, I was JUST thinking, "I wonder what Mokers means." Seriously. I nearly asked it in another thread.

i still remember the night we were in chat and some of us were trying to guess what your name was - i christened you jojo then and that is what i will always say to you...

I mean other than "Do it to me Big Guy!"

It's easy to think your internet handle is just something you pull out of your ass when you want to make a random comment on a website (at least mine was), then later you realize that all the domain names are taken. Brilliantmistake.com is definitely not me- some sort of dj from what I can figure out. It's getting so parents will have to pick an internet name for their baby and reserve the domain at birth.

I like Mokers.

Could you possibly be any MORE adorable?

I think not.

I just like calling you J. Simply classy, just like you!

To me you'll always be Mr. Tuesday Night Regular Who Is The Only Client Who Never Asks For A "Happy Ending" But Insists I Wear Clown Makeup For The Massage, or Mr. TNRWITOCWNAFAHEBIIWCMFTM for short.
