MoDementia pronounced Moe Dementia as in More Crazy
It usually gets shortened (quite quickly) to just MoD pronounced like ...um, mod, not mode.
I first got a modem in the mid 90s from Melbourne's annual information technology expo. It was the latest super fast 28.8 version made by an Australian company Maestro.
It was a while before I had an ISP so I amused myself on the various Bulletin Board Systems I could find.
Most of the BBSs were interstate so the phone charges during that period were unsustainable.
When I got internet connectivity I hardly ate or slept for the first few months. I just couldn't get enough, and my search techniques were abominable so I spent hours looking for anything specific, this cost me dearly in the first month ($100.00) because I exceeded my download limit.
Many places, Internet Relay Chat (IRC) especially, required a Nickname.
It was crunch time, it was all the modem's fault I had gone completely mad.
Modem + Dementia = MoDementia.

mine's just a play on the word 'anonymous' - I figured I'd be first among them all

Saw mine on the license plate of a Dodge Viper and thought it was cool as h***.

Re: What does your username mean?
My real name is Greg Empey,
Empey spoken sounds like MP, which can be an aconronym for Member of Parliament, or Military Police....I am a military brat.
For awhile I was known as MP of R&R, R&R is an acronym for rest and relaxation in the military, or, as I preferred, Rock And Roll!
I decided to shorten it, so, taking MP and adding the first letter of my first name, created MPG
Its kinda neat with it being related to the video technology, but that was a pure coincidence, as I was using MPG far before the video stream existed.
It's also my on-air name for an internet classic rock radio station...I'll let you do the searching to find out which one it is.
None of the listeners know what MPG stands for and we've had some pretty lengthy, and humurous discussion in the chat room regarding it. Only you will know!

Mine comes from the SNES game 'Pop'n Twinbee' which is quite a cool shooter anyway, but has got some incredible music. Hence the nick

Nothing pretty First Name Intial, Middle Name Initial and first 3 letters of last name. My dad went/known by Sig and I just sort of carried on the tradition at a young age.
