Meanings of UR names

[wiirenet]

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.

MMORPG, Everquest to be exact, took me an hour to settle on Marthos.

It stuck thru, EQ2, Vanguard-Saga of Heroes, and currently FFXI, and my Xbox Live name.

Funny thing is, 5 years after picking this name, I married my wife Martha!

I dont remember what server i was on for EQ2, or any others cept for FFXI (Fenrir) cause I am still playing it, lol! I was in a very small guild for EQ2, and we all got accepted to beta test Vanguard, so we all jumped ship to that and the VOD (Valley of Death), Drama ended that kinda quick. FFXI was the withdrawl remedy, and a good excuse to talk to my brother everyday!

I also use the name for Socom, Battlefield 1942, Bad Company, Halo1 2 &3, ect...

3313--- 33 1/3 is the speed that a record spins on a turn table. I used to own my own production company so I thought that was appropriate for my past. There is my story and I'm sticking with it.

Heh, I think I have a right to be POed at people who couldn't read my old screen name. It had the word organism in it, not another org- -sm word that people always mistook it as because they couldn't read!

I don't get mad at anyone who asks if my name references the wii, just annoyed the wii came into existence after I had my sn!
