User:AdjustablePliers
Appearance
AdjustablePliers is a whimsical user name with no meaning. It originated in 1997 when this user tried to log in to a new Yahoo! account with the name PolkaKing, which was already taken. This user needed a pair of adjustable pliers at the time to work with a computer component and on a whim, he entered adjustable_pliers as a user name. It worked.
The handle has been with this user ever since.
