why are you pronouncing user names... do you go to your RL friends and say "OMG rdloeblow wrote the funniest thing today on ATOT, omg omg you guys should have been there.
 
my pet peeve is when people think they are clever and use numbers at the end of their user name to have it finish out a word. looks retarded.
 
I never got rbloedow til this thread. It's funny, I figured it meant something cool, not just first initial last name like me.

It's all in good fun and yes I know by posting that I was being highly hypocritical.
 
xcript - i always read it as "dumbass"
Ogg - I always read it as "douche"
Zysoclaplem - I always read it as "insane"
 
I don't always think in pronounciations, so for some people, there's no "auditory" thought associated with their names.
