Well, some here think I’m evil. So when you see my name, perhaps you’re thinking “Evil Crafter_Man”, which sounds a lot like Evil Captor.
THAT gets my giggle of the day award! Thanks!
And how could you people not understand Wookin’s name?
Kids these days…
He’ll always be an optometrist to me…
:smack:
And don’t forget: all wrapped up in a nice LotR reference, to boot. How delightfully nerdy.
dream shattered, illusions lost…
I can’t believe I never caught that! And my step-mom is a PICU nurse!!
I read Shagnasty as Shag"H"asty for the first couple months I posted. I guess either is still in the realm of “quick and dirty”, tho, huh?
This is entirely correct.
I must add that I confuse SmartAleq for SmartAlex, 'cause I just did it in another thread and crossed her gender.
:smack:
What a username/quote combo. We are not surprised SlowmindThinking.
I’ll 'fess up. I am pretty guilty of all of the above. Not am I bad about reading names correctly, but I am also pathologically unable to carry grudges across threads or sub-forums. Offend me all you want in the Pit, but I’ll love you in MPSIMS.
Count me in for **SpringEars **and WookieInAPub. I know they’re wrong, just can’t see 'em any other way.
I have the same user ID here as on WoW, where my ex-guidies universally pronounced it Ass-Canz instead of aSKANce. Ignorami.
Although I have met him many times in person and heard him say his Doper name out loud, I often think of Cervaise (sir-VIE-uh-see) as a French person would pronounce it: sair-VEZ.
I always say “sair-VASE.” That’s not how it’s pronounced???
I hate to admit this, but for a while I had Antinor01 and Antigen confused.
Since one is a lab-workin’ lady from Canada working to join her boyfriend in the States and the other is an erudite but slightly bitter-sounding gay man, this made their posts with a combined attribution very weird.
“Does not compute does not compute does not compute”
At least no one out there has a name like mine.
I thought it was “sir-vayse” as in Ricky Gervais.
Wow, I just realised: It’s not Trisk-a-day-mus. Lost a syllable somewhere…
Thank you - I chose it as a lurker when there was a username suggestion thread here on the SDMB! So thank the Dopers (I do not remember who came up with it, but clearly, I love them). I like it because it’s kinda naughty but really just a play on words using lingerie. Very fitting, when you think about it.
Oh good, I’m not the only one - I knew one was female and the other was a gay man and they both talk about men and boyfriends. Don’t make it easy on us or anything! Them and SolGrundy and HarimadSol. One is a gay man, the other is a woman. They both talk about men and liking them.
Me too. I’ve only just realised that your name is Revenant not Reverant or Reverand. At least I never said it aloud.
I also just realised that I always say matt_mcl as Matt Mackle in my head.
I always pronounce Cervaise as “cerveza” in my head. And although I am aware on an intellectual level that John Mace and Miller are not the same person, for some reason I confused them for the longest time, and the association is now permanent. And I also thought Msmith was Ms. Smith for a long time.
I was just looking at a thread started by mangeorge and parsed it as mange orge. Damn my high school French class.
Of course, that means I’ve always seen Mangetout as Mange tout , so I guess French class wasn’t all bad.
Hint: Do not take French classes in Tennessee. If you’re not careful, your pronunciation will be fucked up from listening to someone try to speak French with a Southern accent.
I always used to think he was Mange Ogre - an ogre with patchy hair, you know?
Heh, that is a rather amusing mixup. Actually I’ve been thinking of changing my username for a while, I want to get on the clever username train dammit!
(BTW, thanks for the compliment Gabriela. Though I’m thinking I should work on that bitter thing)
