Overused trail names

[DocMahns]

You're yanking my chain.



Kinda too masculine for me, Doc. How about Kevinina?

I'm dead serious about the IV's, the military stocked me with them and gotta use em' for something...

Kevinina has too many syllables for me, too bad you weren't on the trail this year, I smell a trail name (to bring this conversation full circle)

Ah, proper use of tax payer money.

You wouldn't really call me Kevin, would you?

Listen Kev, I pay taxes too, and a box of IV fluid costs less than what I pay for taxes. The appropriation of medical supplies is only used to divert the burden of taxation on myself. Plus, would you want some hungover military member defending your freedom or a properly hydrated finely machined tool? 'Merica, n'uff said.

Properly hydrated machined tool? Who are you fooling!

Kev! Uh oh... I hope that doesn't stick!

haha might as well change your screen name now to Kev2015.

You're right, I'm more like the Tin Man always looking for that damn oil can.

If you call me "Kev" I might just start calling you "Tool." -_-

Haha.

Haha.

lol funny you say that, I grew up watching "Home Improvement" with Tim Taylor.. my name is Tim... I was soon called Tim the Tool Man so you're not far off. Ah, growing up in the 90's.

[Meriadoc]

I am so not in on this joke.

Don't feel lonely. I missed that one too.

All my friends get hangovers too. I'm convinced I'm genetically superior to them. Someday the world will be covered in alcohol (think Waterworld) and my genetic issues will flourish. So too will yours. We should write up a proposal and marry off our first borns to each other.

Or something.

Sure, first borns it is, but not with someone named Kev. Although I keep thinking Kevin Sorbo. That would be a pretty awesome.
Drake would be quite suitable.

Blast. I just checked wiki to see what shenanigans he might have done. Yep. He 'as a bad 'un. Fit in the time period.

Sounds like you two could start down the yellow brick road.

Thesis idea:
Oz was really a story about four friends on one of the first thru hikes, fictionalized and made understandable to lay people. Three of them took the trail names Tin Man, Scarecrow, and Cowardly Lion. Much debate persists to this day whether Dorothy used her real name.

I love you. You're brilliant.

Please write this!

Oh God Lord.....

Trailwobbles made some post about getting her name because she wobbled when she walked. At the end of it she posted this:

O.o

Now, being a guy, I see:
Big ol' right bewbie----->O.o<------Little ol' left bewbie
Wobbles.....off balance.......big ol' bewbie.......little ol' bewbie......."2 cups"........

Work with me.

[Sierra2015]

You shouldn't have explained.... Only guys will think that's funny.

[Foresight]

Yeahbut....

Look, it's a proven fact that we, as guys, are perpetually stuck at age 16. I know there's some weirdos out there that act all mature and sensitive and.......but that's a guise or they're in denial.

Bewbies.

[Sierra2015]

I think that's super interesting how true that is. Older guys are more complimentary and not as needy, but other than that... same guys. Really says something about male human nature.

I don't think women stay the same....

Kev! Uh oh... I hope that doesn't stick!

It stuck to me. Welcome to the club, I'm Another Kevin.

[RED-DOG]

I went on Trail Journals the other day and their's another Reddog on their i thought that was pretty cool but still two Reddog's is one to many, P.S if you meet a man on the trail this year and if he is using the name Reddog it's not ME , But in 2007 i meet two guys their Trail names were Dumb and Dumber i thought that was pretty cool.

[Sierra2015]

But I like my name!

[Tuckahoe]

I like your name too Kevin.

[Different Socks]

15 pages of replies!! Amazing!
Since the beginning of my thru hiking of trails and day hiking, I have used my trail name on all the hikes i've gone on and have yet to meet another with my trail name. I've seen and heard variations, but only one "Different Socks" actually exists that I know of.
And yes, I still wear 2 different colored socks on every hike. Because I do, and did back then, my old girlfriend gave me the name before I even did my AT thru.

[DocMahns]

hahaha, this is amazing, I know you're loving me right meow Kev

[evansprater]

I'd like to think my trail name is pretty unique.
