I had to put this in the Shed because I know you guys won't keep this clean. Animals.

In this thread we will helpfully learn each other how to decipher and pronounce those odd names people come up with.  I mean, how the hell do you pronounce "knapplc?" It doesn't just roll off the tongue.

So here's a helpful and handy guide on how to pronounce some of those trickier names.  YOU'RE WELCOME.

ZRod. Most folks probably say it "ZEE-rod" in their heads, but it's actually pronounced like "fraud" but with a Z.

Moiraine. You think it's MWA-rain, but it's really muh-RYE-an-ee, like Hermione from Harry Potter.

Making Chimichangas. It's not chimi-CHONG-as, it's chimi-CHANG-as, like Michael Chang. 

commando.  One of the M's is silent.  I won't tell you which one.

RedDenver.  It's not Red Denver, because the D's are pronounced together, like reh-DEN-ver.

Stumpy1. The 1 is written in Spanish. It's pronounced StumpyUno.

Mavric. It's not Maverick like Top Gun. It's is in honor of his grandma Vric, whom he called "Ma" when he was little. He just forgot to capitalize the V.

saunders. It's a gambling reference about his favorite hoops team, San Antonio. He always bets the unders.

StPaulHusker. It's actually pronounced "Krzyzewski."

B. B. Hemingway.  You pronounce the periods, but it's all one word. BEEdotBEEdot Hemingway.

Redux. Rhymes with Reduce.

dudeguyy.  You have to hit both Y's, hard.  dudguyEEEE.

QMany. Like when you put too much spice in your taco meat and it's too cuminy. 

lo country.  It's not "low" country, it's a funny way to say "hello," as in, 'ello! He's basically saying hi from the country or to the country. Or something.

NM11046. This name is unpronouncable in any language.  You just skip over it without saying it in your head.

Dewiz. Read it with a Finnish accent and it makes sense.

Kiyoat Husker. It's an anagram for Hi Turkey Oaks. I don't get it either.

Brophog. It's written backwards. He's a Minnesota Gopher fan. Probably drunk when he entered his name like all Minnesotites. 

seaofred92.  Fred Seao graduated in 1992. Duh.

Atbone95. Eighty Bone 95.  His older brother, Brendan Zahl, was a Blackshirt in 1995. He wore number 80.  Look it up.

 
famoustitles- the l is actually pronounced like another T

zoogs- Like Suh or Ruud, really stretch the double O

scottyice- It looks weird but properly said it sounds like "Matty"

GSG- This name perplexes even the smartest people, many theorize it's an amalgam of Gollum and Fig Newtons

Hedley Lamar- Only the dumbest animal hears this name and follows like a drunk in a strip club

knapplc- An ancient series of scrolls were titled "Knapp" then numbered numerically, this mans name is in the 50th scroll/100th word.  If someone is brave enough to take on such a quest you can count me in.

Blackshirtsguru- It's Bob Diaco.

I.M. OLD- An obvious cover. He's actually 25.

84HuskerLaw- Husker fan. Law school flunky. Minimum "word count" of 84, per post.

Landlord- Nothing tricky here, he actually owns a modest amount of investment properties in the Chicago area.

grandpasknee- If it sounds creepy at first blush.... that's because it is.

Mrsnerdly55 is the Schrodinger's Cat of HuskerBoard names. You think it's "Mr. Snerdly55" but when you think that, it's actually "Mrs. Nerdly55." But then, when you realize it's "Mrs. Nerdly55," it changes back again. And so on and so forth.

walksalone is neither walking nor alone most of the time he's posting on HuskerBoard. True story.

The Dude's name is is pronounced like "food," not "dude." The difference is subtle. Like The Dude.

The two J's in JJHusker's name stand for "Just Joking." Most of his posts are, in fact, puns.

fanf#&%intastic.....hahahah

 
April Wine- doesn’t mean anything of significance but rather is just a simple replacement code for September Pain in the A$$.

BigPeterJ- is obviously overcompensating for something. Rumor has it he wanted CorvetteDriver as a name but it was already taken.
