The first part is my first name, and I added the "9000" because of my need for stress pills.

Mine is from the cartoon Reboot;
Megabyte is a virus and controls an entire sector of Mainframe,
Sector 1000, but is always trying to break out of the city
and access the Supercomputer. He lives in a tower called
The Tor and has his own huge following of binomes,
which can be recognized by their blue color,
green eyes, and "unhappy face" emblem, just like Megabyte himself.
He also has three rows of teeth

Mine is the name my parents gave me. Needless to say it helped me learn to fight at an early age. I use it everywhere because I am not ashamed of my opinions or afraid of the consequences. Sadly, I have nothing to hide :-)

Alex is from part of my last name

7888 is from the registration process for my first Hotmail account. The 'name' I wanted was taken, so it gave me ideas of 'name'7887, 'name'7888, and 'name'7889.

I'll leave it to your brilliant minds to figure out which I chose

Edit: Apparently the forum doesn't like anything in those nice little less-than, greater-than symbols (Only saying that because for the life of me I can't remember their proper names!)
