mmmmmmmmmmm, saaaaaaaaaaaandwwwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiich. well, there’s not much of a story behind my handle really. Me and my buddy Jay B were sitting around one day when we first started up EJ back in February… I was trying to think of a name cause I was getting tired of McPhisto… so I decided to use “Tarmat” cause I thought that was hilarious… like, really, what a stupid nick name. But to make it even stupider, I spelled it with pipes (|) instead of T’s (T). Hence --\> |arma|… Jay B was like “What the hell does that say?” “Tarmat… but with pipes instead of T’s. harhar” “That looks like Larmal. HAHAHA! What the hell is a Larmal?” “I have no idea! But it’s me!” And thus the birth of Larmal… ridicule, really. ---
