misreading people's screen names

i belonged to a forum once with a member named willbbad

i stole half the name...used it here because it was just the first thing that came to mind registering and i didnt know about the tracking beam vortex type system this forum had for pulling people into it ..didnt think id be stuck with it





also one of my favourite shows is breaking bad so it kind of fits...but the show came later

 

:love:

 

i thought it was an acronym for boring,bald and dorky

 

im not bald

id describe it more like balding

 

I thought "Weeatoes" was a reference to a kind of breakfast cereal.That's why I liked her from the start.I imagined hot milk being poured onto the Weeatoes on a cold winters morning,warming from the inside out.It was only later that I discoverd that she has a thing about toes...

 

it does now.

 

I Always Read lovelyxmalia, As lovelymaximilia...:willy_nilly:



Cheers Glen.

 

I've always read GLENGLEN as GLENGLEN. It was only recently that I realized I had it backwards.

 

i always read bbad as B. Bad

you know like, the opposite of B. Good

 

is that like contraception for a forum?

 

I read BBAD with a studder...no lie...I say B-BAD in my head...kinda like the guy a few pages ago that posted the Bad to the Bone video, which I am too lazy to go back and quote.

And Glen, I am Malia and Maximilia

 

i read lovelyxmalia as "transformers....more than meets the eye"








i think she knows why


also "holes"...i think i seen that movie like 20 times

 

lol no, it's like Inception for a forum.
u know, because i quoted the word quote between quotation marks :sunny:

 

hey! what does that mean? :toetap05:

 

whoa i always thought it was tyronswood. Actually, I always pronounced it, "tyrone's wood"

I don't know how to pronounce my own screen name.

 

i read it as ...melly-aye

aye like aye aye captain ...arrrrggghh

 

I think it's ok to make up any pronunciation that you want. It could get a little confusing if you spoke of someone's user name IRL though

this is probably more fun then not misreading many of them.

 

Me too!

When I first came to the forums I was mostly looking at the avatars until I realized that more than one person used the same one.

Sometimes I recognize someone by their signature but that can also change.

Now I look at the screen names but I tend to recognize them in the same manner that I would do names in a Russian novel and not bother to try to sound it out, just recognize it.
