  • Nairn4

    So after years of some of you daft cunts insisting on misspelling my name as 'Naim' I just had an enquiry from someone who shared my name and I was delighted at the possibility of working with someone possibly (unlikely) related.

    Stating as much, they replied - "where are your family from, Syria or Lebanon?" at which point I realised their name was Naim, not Nairn.

    *squints*

    • lol
      I am constantly correcting myself that your name is Nairn and not Narin. sorry

    • Imagine having a name that just sounds like “name”. It’s like an abbot and costello setupscarabin
    • @mono - aye, that's why I ditched it for the other name I used here for a decade, realising I shouldn't've used it in the first place. Now I just don't care...Nairn
    • @faxion yeah, this is why you should never use Helvetica for UI...

    • I always thought you're Naim with an 'm'; reading this post, I just had to comb my cursor through your name to see the 'r' and 'n'.

      @sted - that's Dinky's influence, I imagine - cunt always insisted on mangling my name on NTC for ... reasons.
      Nairn
    • fuck Dinky, I met him a few times in real life, and he's just as bad in personmonospaced
    • ey, he was an oft'troubled soul, much like many of us on occasion. I think he just didn't let that veil slip much so we didn't see WHY he was a cunt.Nairn
    • He worked at Bloomberg, which is a soul sucking corporation. I hardly blame him, I guess. I hope he’s okay though.monospaced
    • Ha! Guilty. Sorry, my eyes are shit.bezoar
