Well, one doesn't have to be a rocket scientist to find the logic behind my user name...it's just my name. I just tried to keep it simple and this is as simple as it gets


No matter how much i struggle or strive, i won't get out of this world alive.

I normally use sniperswagat or swagatleo in my ID's. Been doing that for quite sometime now.But when it came to registration for PG, I was in a hurry as I wanted to access the SNAP 2006 poll. So ended up 'straightnaming' myself..

ok as to my name get_amazed. Thats basically how i work. I mean not that my work is amazing, but, its amazing when i work. Its like once in a blue moon, so whenever people look and see me working, they say amazing, so get_amazed.

Ok after that lighter note, its really how i want to be, in field that i undertake. It shuld be that whenever i work, it is amazing. Hope it turns out that way by sometime. Heres to dreams and wishes. GET_AMAZED.

Re: What's the reason behind that odd username??? - 06-05-2008, 05:43 PM

well about my username...

it all started in my college days...
we played CS and displayed all our innovation in keeping names...
all my friends used to have names like i love XYZ (XYZ is a variable...name varied from person to person and also from time to time)

now for my case, since there was no XYZ to make into my CS avatar...i choosed to do somethin different...and that was a time when i used to listen eminem a lot...

so the|hate - my CS name was born...
and it soon became popular in college...

from then i continued the_hate


:moi scores:
crazy about BLACKI

My real/official name : Arijit Das.

PG ID : Fermions .
Why :

Well,very technically speaking, Fermion is a type of particles which follow the
Pauli Exclusion Principle in Quantum Mechanics. Those which don't are called Bosons.

But the interesting thing is:
All the constituent particles of this World, Atoms,its constituent neutrons,protons,electrons,its constituent sub-particles leptons, hardrons,mesons, quarks all fall in this category. Hence all the particles in the World are basically conglomeration of Fermions.

Whereas all Forces, be it EM Force, Gravitational Force, Strong Force, Weak Force all are caused due to exchange of particles, like gluons, Gravitons etc which don't follow Pauli Exclusion particles are called Bosons.

btw, Fermions(Bosons) have odd(even) multiple of half-integral spin--->Expt. property which can b verified.

Now, since all the world, at the very fundamental level is made up of such sub-atomic particles which are some Fermion or another,the Fermion fascinates me no end. Hence the reason for choosing this ID.

btw, just as an aside I did my M.Sc in Physics from IIT Kanpur.Now moving to IIM I.

wanna read more interesting stuff, check the following link, specially the 'Interesting Read' section:

I am sure, U wont b disappointed.

Yesterday at Delhi PG meet i was asked abt my id n wats the reason behind it.. so i guess i shud post on this thread nw..

one of my fren introduced to me PG in 2005 n at tht time we both were following WWE big time... Batista was ruling over WWE as he was world champion n was named as 'beast has been unleashed'

my fren asked me for a user id n i said keep it nething u want how the hell it matters thinking PG is just another mba prep forum.. n since he was sufing WWE site he came up with this sayin u r a beast who will be unleashed in CAT 2005


Challenges are what make life interesting, overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.
