    I've always wondered how to say that name, I usually only see it in print so never really knew.

        I'm pretty good with names and the uncommon spellings due to sports and the various nationalities of athletes that play them.
        NHL - Philadelphia Flyers
        NFL - Buffalo Bills
        MLB - Cincinnati Reds

          My boss decided he was going to care about what I'm doing today and he's grinding my gears.. Just let me do my thing and go sit in the office staring at your phone or something.

            Jpdavis trying to spin the Madden 25 story grinds my gears.......

            1st it was just an early build......

            2nd it was Sony's fault.....

            Now it is the Game Changers only played the 360 version, that is why the invisible players weren't caught.....As though EA QA department don't play all versions of the game.

            Give that man an Oscar:



            And this song is for him:

              Going back to names for a second mine is spelled Jamaine....no one else ever spells it right unless I spell it for them before they ever use it. Annoys me to the point I just about tell people immediately how its spelled or to use just J


              On a similar note there's another guy at my job with the name Jamian. The confusion between us happens often.

                The teachers and principal always confuse the Brandon's and Brendan's names in my school. They called someone named Brandon " Brendan " and vice versa

                  A worker at the office I clean has been calling me Jamie for the last few months. I don't care enough to correct her.

                  Generally I don't really care what you call me as long as I can recognize it as you addressing me.

                    Come on now. Megan, Meagan, Meghan, and now Meggin? Parents who go out of there way to have their children's names be original or unique kind of grind my gears for some reason.
                    Well thats why names like Obamanisha and Bleu Ivy exist

                      My first name is Jairo, in Spanish AND English its pronounced Hi(like the greeting)-Ro. Yet sometimes call me Gyro, do I look like a ****ing Greek delicacy? For that reason I'm going to call my daughter Bob and my son Susan, really mess with people's heads.

                          When my doorbell rings, unexpectedly. Nothing good comes out of random doorbell rings. 9 times out of 10 its somebody I dont really want to see.

                          Today it was a man from across town with a similar address to mine asking if I received his online purchased bicycle in the mail by accident. I spent 20 minutes convincing him I didnt have it.

                            Sounds like you say gyro wrong. It's the circle of improper speech.

                              The worst is when your name is spelled correctly right their in front of them and they still **** it up. I don't know how many times I've seen my name spelled Terrance when Terrence is right their in front of them.

                              Someone also called me Garrett for awhile and I'm still not sure why.
