Remember Malachiteink? All the pms passing to and fro, newspaper headlines, questions in the house. How do you pronounce Malachiteink? (she told us eventually. two words; malachite-ink)

3113: How do you say it?

three one one three. three eleven three. thirty one thirteen.

Samandiriel Saman-dirriel? Sam and I real?

Selena. Is that second part just a weird spelling of kitten or is it kai-ten?

Tanyachrs. What the hell is that?

E-liz-a-bet .... Its old old.... so drop the th and you will understand.
Tada... the extra T is not a misprint :D
 
*grin* Not gonna do it.

As for 3113, I say it "thirty-one thirteen" (like Rush's 2112).

Elizabetht -- I didn't know that. I assumed the extra T was a middle or last initial. :eek:

Huh. I actually never saw the first "i". So it's been sam'an-dree-el to me all the time.

Wow, I'm so flattered to be noticed. It's Tanya Chris. The 'i' is missing because it was already taken in Yahoo and I figured I might as well misspell it consistently.

I assumed 3113 was leet for something but am not leet-literate enough to figure it out.

Missing Mal... sigh

Thirty-one thirteen... yeah, that works. I'd been saying three one one three. :D

Samandiriel... figured that was Sam and Iriel. :D

Meow. :catroar:

No clue, though I've been trying to figure it out. :D

Nice to meet you Tanya Chris. :D ;)
 
I actually got the Tanyachrs thing! Well, after I put my glasses on and realized it wasn't "Tangiers" or something. :)


Mine is: Oh, Miss Scarlett. Not to be pronounced with an air of orgasmic pleasure, but rather with a :rolleyes: .
 
Sal-vor Hard-on

ITs tricky but if you practice and roll your R's and try to say it with a french accent it comes out just right.

;)
 
Just a weird spelling of "Kitten" :cathappy:

It was an old nick from AOL (back in the days when they charged by the hour) and "Kitten" was unavailable... so typed it out that way out of habit!

:eek:
 
RUMPLE

RUM-PULL

RUMP-EL

Also acceptable are any of the numerous diminutive variations that have sprung from the fevered imaginations of certain AH'ers. However, at the risk of sounding a bit prissy, I do take exception to it being pronounced:

OLD, ONE-EYED, FAT FART.

Rumple Foreskin :cool:

Very kind of you to ask! Impressive got it right. It was always intended to be "thirty-one, thirteen" and I was a little surprised when I started getting called "three." But hey, it's no biggie, and I can hardly complain--especially when I keep calling "TheeGoatPig" "ThreeGoatPig."

It's simply a number palindrome, one that's easy for me to remember :)

I do that, too... with "ThreeGoatPig"... and I always called you "three-one-one-three" which was just way too annoying... I like "thirtyone-thirteen" way better!

And what about "Feeeriek" ... just as it looks? :confused:
 
oggbashan = og bash an

King Og will do just as well.

Og (like hog without the 'h')

Ditto. I've been pronouncing it "Sam-an-drel"--but then, I'm the *last* person you want to ask about pronunciation. I always get it wrong.

Been meaning to ask for years. Why the extra g?
 
I pronounce Samandiriel

Sa-mahn-dir-ee-el

And I actually hink I've seen it in a book of fallen angels- one sec.




okay, was wrong, not a fallen angel- the angel of Imagination.

:devil: I know a lot of weird trivia.

LOL. Thank you. I didn't even know what leet was till recently. I wonder how many people have been mistaking me for a gamer or a hacker :confused:
