Heh. This will take a while but I think its cool to explain this, even if for myself for the future!

There was a comic book writer who's email was organizm@something, and I loved it because it seemed.. techy get organic and geeky. But I didn't want to have the exact same thing so I made it WiredOrganizm, to show my computer love, that sometimes I get hyper/wired, there was a book about an actor I liked called Wired, also I liked the "wi" as my last name starts with that..

However, friends/online people would joke that when they glanced at my email/screenname/handle they thought it looked like Wired-another word that starts with Orga and ends with sm

I think the last straw was when I told or wrote my email for my dad he gave a "what!?" shocked reply.

It pisses me off that people can't read and tainted my screenname!

Anyway, I changed it to wire(d)net because of my name annette, and the internet. That was taken a lot so I added the second i because I thought it still looks good (i dont like numbers in screen names)

NOW I get annoyed because people think its a reference to the wii. When I had this screen name the wii never existed! And I could care less about it now.

/end ramble
