 Do you ever find yourself trying to pronounce everyones user names like they are a real word?  Well, I do.  I can't help it.  Even if they have their real names posted, I know everyone by their user names.  Some I know real names, but some I don't.  So, I just give them real names...lol

For example:

suslvgeo - Every time I see it I say, suse-l-v-geo (I call her Sus for realz though)
katarria - this one I say cat-a-ria (and I know her real name)

I know it's sill but it's what I do.  Are there any you do like that?

 LOL ... me too!!

yup I associate the face with the user name and not the real name most of the time 

 I do that!  LOL! and sometimes, I have to work hard to get my first pronunciation out of my head.  For example, when I saw allysonc, I pronounced it in my head...ally sonc (with a k on the end).  Now I realize it is allyson c !  LOL!

 Me too...thats so funny.

 Yep, I do that too!

 yes, that's why I like it when we have our names at the bottom of our posts, helps remember who we are talking to, and get to know our friends better 

 LOL! I'm glad I'm not the only one!!!

 Of course I do!!!! I even use it as their name when pming them--and their "real" name is usually there in their siggy!

 You're too funny! I normally know their real names.

 yes...guess a person needs to be careful what their screen name is....if we ever meet, we'll call each other those names forever!

 Guilty.
