I had been playing Destiny 2 for several hours ... 8yr  grand daughter arrived for a visit, I stood up, she saw the rear of my trousers which were all wrinkled, she announced loudly, "grandad, you have a wrinkly bottom" .. my teenage grand son immediately said it would be a great GT for me ... eventually Wrinklybutt was suggested, added the "Sir"

I was creating a new XBL tag when I got my first 360, and one of the songs I was listening to at the time was "Crooked Crow" by Andre Nickatina.  I liked the way it sounded, but not how it looked, so I changed the Cs to Ks, which I liked, and have used that name in everything game related since then.  I also like to capitalize all consonants, keep vowels lowercase because I think it makes the name itself look a bit crooked.

first gamertag I ever had was BoomBazookaJoe back in the system link days of Halo. After a small stint with another GT (and a break from gaming for a short while) I had forgot all my login information so I had to start from scratch when I bought a new XB1. 
 

So I updated it a bit to personalize it, BoomBazookaJD; my childhood nickname from my late grandfather.

red dead revolver was my first PS2 game ever and i fell in love with it and the red dead series. I always liked Red Harlow as a character and will always will. 🤠

Ahhhh, Red Harlow. Brings back memories for sure. I remember when me and my buddy went to Block Buster to pick up games for the PS2, and come back and just game all night, Red Dead Revolver was one of my top favorites.

Because the Net is global, English words translate strangely between cultures, there can be confusion about what a particular grouping of letters means. When I set up my account I wanted two things in my handle, easy to remember and bland enough to be ambivalent. This was not an exercise in political correctness, just a choice for ease of use with maximum privacy. 

My handle is Redstarski, red for fire, star for direction and ski for what you do when there is a meter of snow on the ground outside where you live for 6 months of the year.

 

I tried to use Etobicoke as my handle but the bot wouldn't let me because Etobicoke is considered a vulgar/profane word by some game servers. Seriously? Since when is Etobicoke a swear word? lolol That's what I mean about particular groupings of letters, you never know what they really mean when translated.

"Have Gun Will Travel" Was my favorite show in the late 50s, early 60s. When I was a wee Lad.

My Ole Man liked the costar Kam Tong , Paladin's assistant. So I got to watch the show too

As soon as I figure out how to do an avatar, you will see The Paladin Knight. His calling card.

Well... sh*t.. There it is. OK, I guess I should.

Hoover, because I totally suck due to my disability. And RAD, because it's my initials. There's a longer version of the Hoover thing, but I won't bore you with all the details..
