What do you say when your refering to someone on ATOT?

[chiwawa626]

Like if im having a conversation and then i refer to a post made on atot, i always just say like "oh yeah, a friend of myne told me..." What do you guys do?

 

[Jugernot]

I say "I read on the intarweb..."

I actually said intarweb the other day and one of my friends at work just looked at my weird and walked away.

 

[Cooljt1]

"I heard"

 

[Confused]

Normally "someone I know on AT told me..." or sometimes "someone I know from the forums..." (if the person i'm talking to knows about AT or i've mentioned it already in this particular conversation)


Confused

 

[Xionide]

I do what chiwawa does. But occasionally what jugernot said has also happened to me also.

[chiwawa626]

I dont want to look like a freak refering to an "internet forum"...

Yeah i'm the same.

Intarweb is a very dumb word....it's like where kids call a cow a "moo moo" just a waste of time....

I actualy usedto do that until people were like "damn where do u read all this stuff"

 

"Someone on the 'net said. . . ."

Else I say, "on the 'net forum I frequent. . . ."

I don't just say "my friend".

If it's from an e-mail correspondence with someone I've never met, then I say: "A 'net friend of mine said. . . ." or "A 'net friend whom I correspond with via email said. . . ."

 

[Wingznut]

"I read on a msg board...."

 

[PoPPeR]

"i heard on this website called anandtech.com, spelled a-n-a-n-d-t-e-c-h, dot com, that blah blah blah
