All this time I thought you got your name from the Talking Heads song, Burning Down The House, but shorten it. I think of that song every time I see your username... now that I know it's a REM song I have go and to update my earworm.

My last name. I figured I'd take my legacy of functional alcoholism and general dumbassery to the internet.
Plus it's a really funny word.

Now just post your social security number so that we can really get to know you.

lol, to be honest I googled my last and first name just to be sure my identity couldn't be found. There's been tons of people with my last name. Celtic unoriginality ftw.

I used to go on this chat room when I was like 12 and there was this chick named Ali. We were making up guy's names for her one day and Alfred was one of those. I liked the name so much that I started using it as my own nickname on every forum after that.
