This is why I think I'm dyslexic sometimes...I've always read sherbetlemons as sherbetMELONS.

That's probably the most useful signature on GC at this moment. :D

Hehehe, I like the new signature. I always read it as "great alpha xi", too, who knows why. Little bit of dyslexia in me, too, I guess.

Same with absolutuscchick and DGPhoney, too...except reading this thread is the first time that I realized I was reading their names wrong! Whoops.

Here's some that I can think of now. I'll probably come back and add a few:

ariesrising: I thought it was Air Rising
sherbertlemons: Sherbertle-mons (I guess a lot of us thought that)

I have the same trouble with DGPhoney and tnxbutterfly.

It took me forever to figure out nyrdrms, too. I was reading it as nerd-ums. :D

I always see nyrdrms as NY dreams, like New York Dreams.

ME TOO! :o :o

queequek is quack quack.

And yeah, DGPhoney: DG Phoney (sorry! :o)

sherbertlemons 01-27-2004 05:38 PM

*cracks up at the misreading of my user name* Maybe it would help if I could spell "sherbet" right, anyways.

I have to admit misreading G8Ralphaxi as Ralph, too. :)

Oh, goodness....maybe it's a good thing I want to go into psychology, then, huh? :D

AlphaFrog 01-28-2004 10:37 AM

tnxbutterfly I always read as "Thanks Butterfly"

DGPhoney-same story
Sherbertlemons-same story

I will never ever remember mullet81 is a girl, until she posts something that a guy would never post....

I will never figure out and remember who changed their GC name to what.... moe.ron FiReKrAcKer, etc....

And I keep assuming 33girl has something to do with the Smashing Pumpkins song but I really don't know....

Me too! Only I see it as absolute U.S. chick and I STILL read it that way.

No it has to do with Rolling Rock - but what Smashing Pumpkins song are you talking about?
