My user name is my real-life nickname that almost everyone calls me. I got the nickname Cokes from my friend Wil. About 3 years ago, he gave me the nickname coke bottles because I have glasses and my eye sight is the worst so he said my lenses look like the bottoms of old coke bottles.. the glass ones from like the 60s and 70s. It didnt bother me cuz I dont care if kids joke about my vision, Im cool with it. Since then, the name just stuck. These are also some of my other nicknames:
Cokey
C-Bots
Bottle Caps
Coke Bots
My AIM screen name is also yet another nickname. I dont know if anyone here has read the play Oedipus the King.. but there is a character called Tiresias who is a blind prophet. Well, put the pieces together and you get Prophesizer.

MercurySolo is a multi-reference of sorts. I've kind of latched on to the Mercury name because of the planet, and the God Mercury had winged feet that helped him get around quickly, as he was a messenger of the Gods (not that I think I'm God's messenger or anything). Plus, Mercury is used in a lot of Smashing Pumpkins songs (Spaced, Ava Adore, The Crying Tree of Mercury...), as well as on the Marilyn Manson CD HolyWood. It also is the Alchemy symbol for Quicksilver, which isn't solid, but is kind of poisionus. Solo is a pick-and-choose meaning. I took it from Napoleon Solo, one of my fave ATD-I MP3's (just got i/c/o, so now I don't have to listen to it just on computer \m/ ), also, it's partly inspired by Han Solo...
The moral of the story: Never ask an overanylitical Beatles/Smashing Pumpkins fans what their name/lyrics/songtitles mean, you'll end up with a long-winded explanation that's probably more confusing than not knowing... I tend to Corganize things.
[ from Vieuphoria
Therapist: I hear you've been having some problems with your band, and I wonder, would you like to tell me about them?
Billy: Just let me make this analogy. You wanna go to the circus, and to get into the circus it costs you five … pence.
Therapist: Yeah.
Billy: So, you stand in line, you don't have five pence, but you really wanna go to the circus. So someone comes along and says, "Well, I'll take you in the circus and I'll pay the five pence, but you gotta pay me back later." So, you go in the circus, they take you out. "Oh, OK, well, when you gonna pay me back?" "I don't know. I'll get around to it sooner or later." … That's the story of the band.

Wow, I didn't know that... makes a lot of sense. It's funny, with my DrinkinMercury name (the other SN I sometimes use), people always ask "hey, won't drinking mercury kill you?" or "Hey DM, do you actually drink mercury?"... kind of like the people who see my blue hair and ask "Hey! Do you dye your hair?" No, I fell asleep in the forest next to a Smurf Kegger, and my hair was the site of their pissing contest... people are strange when you're a stranger... BRING IT AROUND TOWN!!!

my screen name stands for absolutely nothing at all...but people like to say things like "it's mother russia, fuckhead!" and "it's father prussia (deutschland), shitface!"...yet it has no significance whatsoever...when i was first introduced with the dilemma of choosing a screen name, i picked the first weird phrase that came to my head: "motherprussia." so there you go...i hope that answers your question...
oh, and it kinda sounds like motherfucker when i scream it at someone...
and i'm just a very very very weird guy...

clearvampire
clear = stands for the second part of the word 'everclear' I am the biggest everclear fan
vampire = I have an interest in vampires....
Most people think my screen name stands for a vampire you can see, I never thought of it that way...
