As do I. In fact it was a similar thread that pointed out my error.
Also, I always want to add an ‘n’ to shijinn - as in “Shin Jinn”. :wally

He doesn’t post very often, but sometimes I wonder what “bado” men are.
CrankyAsAnOldMan --I always got her name correctly until someone in a similar thread to this one read it as CrankyAssedOld Man . Now, the way i always see it is the wrong way.
I have not read the names wrong, but for at least a year I thought that MPSIMS stood for “Mindless Pointless Stuff I must Share.”
Then again…
Oh wait, there are a couple I’m not sure of:
Is gobear pronounced “Go Bear” or “Gob Ear” ?
Great minds, viva, great minds.
Ah, so I’m not alone!
BTW, Bosda it’s not hard for some of us to remember the Di’Chi of Tricor part but without getting the reference it still reads as Boston Tchee of Tricorder. AltaVista turns up nothing but SD and Teemings pages. Same for Qadgop. Have either you or the Mercaptan ever posted an explanation of your usernames?

Holy fuck!!! I’ve been lerking on this board for 4 freakin’ years and I always thought the first word was Mindless too! I just went and checked it because I couldn’t believe I had gotten it wrong all this time.
The origin of my name has been uncovered by a number of canny dopers in the past, and has been discussed in more than one thread.
Quadrupedal Mercaptan
“Go bear”. It used to be goboy.
Oh, and before anyone asks, my name is simply a combination of Guinevere (my old screen name) and Anastasia. It’s pronounced Gwen-a-STAY-zha.
I always mentally pronounced it Gwen-a-STAH-zee-a because I thought that gave it a little taste of the upper class. What? Okay, I have no idea what I’m talking about. But there you go.
Thanks for clearing that up, because I really didn’t want to have to point out that “I am Pun Ha” was a really lousy user name
Hmmm…that works too. I like it.
I always read TellMeImNotCrazy as TellMeImNotCrazy.
It’s ** T. Veblen**, a name, an initial and last name but without the dot or any frilly…uh…thing like a hyphen. (pant, pant)
Thorstein Veblen
This guy, only, well, not actually male. Or dead.
Like AEinstein. Right? Right??
Veb
(“TV emblem?!”)
Oh. I pictured you much cuter.
Me too! I still think that’s better than ‘mundane’. At least mindless can be extraordinary.
Another one: I always read iampunha as “I am phun, HA!” To illustrate a little more clearly:
“You’re no fun, but I AM FUN, HA!”
:dubious: :wally
Who’s this Instein guy TV’s talking about?
