How do you pronounce your username?

Pete Who?

It was either my first two-way pager or my first automated voicemail system for personal use... Anyhow, it was something that when setting it up, it prompted me, "Please record your first name at the tone"... "Pete"... "Please record your last name at the tone"... Not wanting all callers to know my last name, and not knowing what to say when faced with the beep, I said "Who?"

Well, then all my friends that contacted me got something along the lines of, "Please leave a message for Pete Who? at the tone"... Thusly I became known as Pete Who?

Who?

krik-ee / wun-oh-wun
(pronunciation of the numbers may have been overkill)

Not pronounced like the expression of the late crocodile hunter Steve Irwin - "Crikey!"

Z-Man-C-B-R.

Like Tom's mine is a combo of things. People used to call me Zman at my old work since my name is Zach, and the CBR is my motorcycle.

They both just stuck and I have had a unique username ever since!

Is there going to be a CA decoder ring group buy?

I picked it up my nickname from a song by the Bottle Rockets called Coffee Monkey. Funny little song about coffee addiction and it was fitting given my consumption of jo.
