The 5 guys who BS on the forum BS Thread

this site is lightning fast. and i can say shit. these things make me happy.

 

Careful T4R may strip you of your moderating abilities if they see you saying shit on other forums

 

Not only can you say shit.... You can say... .... Fuck...

 

Wait you couldn't curse on t4r?I guess I never tried. How fuckin lame!

 

So Addicted offroad is making a 4th gen bumper. This should be good.

 

Finally finished painting my sliders and will get them all mounted on this week
When did this super techy forum go up?

 

About an hour ago

 

Like an hour ago lol

 

I feel like we are all going to recreate the threads we frequent on T4R

 

Nah. We don't have a BS thread on t4r. Momo gets all butthurt when I try to carry on a conversation in the 4th gen thread. Lame. Just trying to connect with my minions

 

hey alex in the spirit of BS, can you explain why your username is spelled similarly to your last name but still different?

 

GREAT question Zak!

In middle school, I moved to a private school. Quickly made friends, bla bla bla. My buddy Mark was talking to me and said my name super Russianey, adding 14 extra names, and ended with "Emelianenkov", and it stuck. I have used it ever since

 

makes sense enough

 

Oh don't seem so disappointed lol. It was like 6th grade and I dunno. It describes me quite well

 

It's different from just using my real name, kinda fun and interesting, unique, and I use it errrrrwhere

 

I was kinda hoping for some crazy backstory about your great great grandfather immigrating to the United States and having his name changed because it was too hard to pronounce and you were carrying on the original last name or something

 

I went from Emelianoff to emelianenkov. At least it's more zesty than hilton head island runner or first initial last name

 

lol my creative genes were lacking the day i made my username...

 

As were mine. When I was making my account for here I almost made my username "Jake" but then didn't.

 

My grandfather grew up in a Ukrainian concentration camp, then his family got out after the war and went to morocco where he and my grandma met. They moved here when she was 18 and he was 21 with $50 and two suitcases in the 50's. They went on to make a multimillion dollar translation business out of their diverse backgrounds. My grandfather worked at MIT as a janitor for a while and wound up getting enrolled there by begging and pleading to be allowed in. He and my grandmother worked 4 jobs combined while raising 2 young kids so he could get a PHD in engineering. He went on to work for NASA and Polaroid's failure analysis labs, before starting said translation business with my grandmother.

 

My grandfather worked at Polaroid way back in the day as well

 

Hahaha and mine is just my name with some asian guys last name attached to it.

 

See! Mine has sentiment and meaning to me! Lay off my awesome username. See what you started @zopperman!?

 

We need a "what does your username mean" thread...

 

We need all the threads. All of them.

 

Wait this sounds like good will hunting!! Is your grandfather Matt Damon?

 

So there's this Panamanian guy that I work with who always tries to motivate us by telling stories about his youth and being dirt poor and stuff. He's pretty funny not gonna lie. But he always calls my buddy Dylan and I The Doctor or El Presidente and stuff. We screw with him a lot because we know he was never dirt poor or anything and that he actually comes from a really wealthy family in panama and whatever.

 

I've made that connection myself as well, but no, my grandfather is not Matt Damon. He does, however, have Alzheimer's, so it's a shame that someone with a PHD doesn't know how to read time anymore... No concept of anything really anymore

 

Well, hopefully the support you've shown and awareness that's been raised for it will help find a cure - it's a horrible thing. I saw a lot of people with Alzheimer's as an emt back in the day
