My username is an inside joke with me and my friends. I wasn't really trying to receive any attention.

Mine is one of my favorite characters from Skins UK.
No particular reason. I wanted something I could remember that wouldn't give away my identity :)

Guess it's time to come clean, I saw it somewhere and liked it. Ahhhh.... now all the intrigue, suspense and mystery has been erased. One rung up from closing my eyes and poking my finger at a magazine and choosing the word my finger rests on. :(

It's an inside joke, and I was hoping that a religious zealot would relieve my boredom by trying to burn me at the stake.

I've been using this handle for 15 years. I've been online since I was 12 and adopted this name when I was 13. I'm not concerned with privacy here. I want people to know who I am because then they know I'm being open and honest.
As for the name itself, I was a wrestling fan. I still watch most of the stuff pre-2002 or so. Paul Heyman is the greatest wrestling manager of all time. He founded ECW, which made wrestling what it is today to a large extent. His ring name was Paul E Dangerously and I have a lot of admiration for what the man did, his wit, intellect, and certain aspects of his personality. I named myself after him. It's sort of become my trademark. (Other than my signature pork pie hat, of course.)

Kabir Das was a saint and an excellent poet with some intense deep meaningful poetry like this
Speak such words, you lose the minds Ego
Body remains composed, Others Find Peace
My theory is something like this one
Kabira Stands in the market place, Asks for everyone's prosperity
Neither special friendship nor enmity for anyone
So I chose him though my actual name is Kabeer only I added Dass due to him.

My city does a lot of independent films and music: you can find live music anywhere in the city. I like that sort of thing, hence my username. The number was just random.

I had another username first but since it was my alias almost everywhere on the net and I wanted to be a little more private I changed it to Grakka.. only a handful of people irl knows that I was called Grakka once.
