The official "what does your r3v name mean" thread

[TurboJake]

Because I always have a turbocar, or turbo project. Usually both.

[2mAn]

started on vwvortex with 2manvr6, dropped the vr6 since I no longer owned a VR6 powered VW. 2man ~ Tuman, which happens to be my last name. I wanted to use mr2man but I thought it would be read as MR2 Man instead of MR 2man so I just avoided the MR part... also, usually I capitalize the A (2mAn) because Im a giant pain in the Ass, but I got lazy when I signed up for R3V. can a mod fix that for me??? haha

[ParsedOut]

Some random joke between me and my wife that if we ever open a Mexican restaurant I'd name it GatoEnFuego Cantina. Cat on fire and very loosely translated to cooked cat. Thought it was funny at the time, unfortunately that was around the time I joined r3v... Oh well.

Rcsoundn1= rc for rc cars, sound because I love music and home stereos, n1.... I'm not sure why that's there.

[Chinampa]

"A small, stationary, artificial island built on a freshwater lake for agricultural purposes. Chinampan was the ancient name for the southwestern region of the Valley of Mexico, the region of Xochimilco, and it was there that the technique was-and is still-most widely used. It consists in building up a number of narrow islands, each averaging some 6 to 10 metres (20 to 35 feet) wide"
