"Pez" is like 'pet fish' in Spanish. Don't be confused with "pescada."
"Enfuego" is sort of like "on fire."
I am a boyscout and I really like fire-building. When I chose that name, I had just made my first fire-by-friction using all natural materials. If you've done this before, you probably know that it isn't the easiest thing in the world to do.
I have never changed my avatar, I'm waiting for a special day that won't be here for several months. I'll only change it for that one day and then that's it.
I thought it meant fighting chicken...

Is it because your name is Tatianaquisha, you have 3 pet ferrets, 1 aquarium, and 6 kids?

Pez means fish. lol Not 'pet fish'.
Pescada also means fish, but more in the sense of a fish that you eat. While the literal translation of "pez" is closer to just "fish," I was using "pet fish" for clarity.

Ruben, you're a funny guy. I would fight with you about this, but that would just help prove your point

Didn't you ever watch Talledega Nights? At the end of the movie, they come up with a new nickname for themselves.
Cal: Shake and Bake?
Ricky: No. Never again.
Cal: You're right. I was a total ----, man.
Ricky: From now on, [points to Cal] it's Magic Man...[points to himself] and El Diablo.
Cal: What--What's Diablo mean?
Ricky: It’s, like, Spanish for, like, a fighting chicken.
Cal: That's awesome! With the claws?
Ricky: Yeah, with the claws. With the claws and a beak!
Cal: How'd you come up with that, man?
Ricky: Just--sometimes, things click.

My real name is Calvin (i go by Cal)
Calberto was a nick name that kind of stuck since the beginning of high school(also has been stretched into calsmerto, then smerto and then smeebo).
calberto is usually taken so i replaced the o with a 0 and for the last 8 years every website/forum/account blah blah blah i always use calbert0.

Hahahaha!!! Not so much. This is actually the first forum I ever signed up on. Shogun323 was the first thing that came to mind. I'd change it if I could.

SOVIETTACO
It gets people to react... What is interesting is people never say "hey soviettaco" they just say soviet or taco...
The reasons behind it are I am fascinated by Russian history and I was probably hungry at the time haha, and tacos are freaking delicious. Its supposed to be random I guess
