I tried to pick a beatles reference that was also a name, and henry the horse was taken.

If you know how to say the name Mori (also spelled “Maury,” as in short for “Maurice”) it’s easy! Just add a z sound. Mo-reez. Most just call me Mori either way.

I think I heard the name Bongo from Gilligan’s Island where a band “The Mosketoes”??? got stranded with them,  or was it the “Way Outs” on the Flintstones….a-hard-days-night-ringo-14  

I thought it was a reference to the Beatles’ appearance on Morecambe and Wise?

How did you end up with 50 year slate, @50yearslate, and what do you write on your very old slate?

Funny you should ask… I actually intended my name as “50 years late” not “50 year slate.” It is simply because I was born fifty years late to properly experience Beatlemania, and when it asked me to choose a username I couldn’t think of anything better that wasn’t taken. a-hard-days-night-george-10

I’m 50 years too late for everything.

i got my username when i was signing up for the site and looking through my Beatles fanfiction looking for a name. My OC said “No, John, the walrus was brian” or something so i thought ” brian is the best, I’ll use that” brian-epstein

When i made this account, things we getting better, hence my original name. But then i quickly realized that things weren’t getting better and changed my name to something more appropriate. I’ve thought about asking Joe to change it back but it’d probably be a bad idea considering how long i’ve had the name for.

If you're reading this, you are looking for something to do.

I like the song Maxwell’s Silver Hammer, but the name silverhammer was already taken, so I thought I’d add Yours Truly to the end (lol sorry unintentional song reference)

Reporter: Beethoven figures in one of your songs. What do you think of Beethoven?
Ringo Starr: He’s great. Especially his poetry.

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8Nah, I think he’s referring to that one other song they did – Kokomo?ahdn_ringo_09

Of course, I got my account name from my favourite album and song at the time I created the account, and then over time Beatlebug, Holey, Martha and several others blessed me with the wonderful nickname Peppdog!a-hard-days-night-john-1
