Re: *PICS* Fatty Woo and his pink Peavey Vandenburg
Well, here's the story of how he got the name. I'll explain how I got my name too. Before I begin, you must realize, I come from a traditional Vietnamese household, so it's a lot different than how most of you American or European dudes were raised.
Me and Fatty Woo grew up making fun of each other. Calling each other names, making up weird words, etc. (This was not a negative thing, really, it was a game) He'd usually call me gay, stupid, etc and I'd call him fat (he was chubby

) This didn't offend either of us because we were always looking for a good laugh. Eventually, Fat just became his name. My whole family also poked fun at how my dad, older brother, and Fatty had those SUPER small Chinese eyes. That lead to all of us poking fun at Chinese stereotypes and whatnot (my family is half-Chinese), so we added the WOO tag to Fatty's name.
As for where Biu came from, well, my parents named me Billy, but they couldn't pronounce the L's in my name (they were born and raised in Vietnam and just came over here 6 years before I was born), so it came out as Biu, which I think is WAY cooler.
So yeah, my family is real quirky, we're not the type to get offended much at all (except maybe my dad). We find Asian stereotypes to be funny because they're usually true

:laugh2: The mood is almost always very light in this house, I dig it. :cool3: It's kind of weird because my dad is the only one that is always stern and serious.
Fatty Woo weighs 9 pounds less than me, so that'd make him about 120lbs. I am 129lbs. He's getting bigger than me though :saeek:
