Shared on Wed, 10/04/2006 - 13:36I’m fascinated with GTs. I want to know how you guys came up with them. I know some of them are your names, careers or hobbies but since I’m still pretty new to this whole scene I always have to ask Big0ne who people are and did I meet them at the Chicago LAN? If I met you at the C-LAN I’m probably not pronouncing your GT correct and that confuses me even more. Now here’s a little story to explain why I want to make sure I am pronouncing your GT correctly.
Thursday night at the C-LAN Big0ne introduced me to about 7 guys using their GTs and I was Mrs. Big0ne for the rest of the weekend. I remembered most of their GTs later that night and the next day. I didn’t understand one of the GTs and I’m not easily offended but I pride myself on being a lady and what I thought I heard was not something I was going to repeat or call a person. I’m talking about Tait. The rest of the night and the next morning I kept referring to him as the tall, blonde guy that sat across from me at diner. I’m sure Big0ne used his name but I was hearing something else and didn’t want to have to ask for clarification. The next day Big0ne, the tall, blonde guy, scotib and myself spent the afternoon site seeing downtown Chicago. I spoke with the tall, blonde guy but I’m sure I did not address him by his name. Anyway later that night Big0ne was hanging around with the tall, blonde guy and scotib. I noticed the name tag hanging from his neck and said “Oh your name is Tait”. Of course we had to have a very funny and descriptive discussion about what I thought his GT was. (I’m still not going to say it)
So what does all of this have to do with my interest in how people come up with their GTs? I still mispronounce a lot of the GTs so if I’m in a game with you sorry. And to explain my GT I’m not a Librarian. My GT was bestowed on me by Tait and now I have to explain to everyone why he calls me The Librarian. Let’s just say Absinthe…..
