I suppose it was Tubby the Hubby who told you?Originally posted by Mrs. Tuberski
Nor would I. I dont think I have done so. But in my defense I only just recently found out that everyone misspells his name. And that was only cause i spelled it right and got asked "what are you doing?" Then told everyones spells it wrong. 
It all started because of one poster in particular, Monk, would misspell it on purpose. We used to go back and forth (Thebes/Munk, Thibben/Mung). In addition, several people would misspell it 'Theban', quite by accident. But it got surreal when brand new posters did the same thing. Finally after about the 4th or 5th n00b called me 'Theban' I made a thread about it (in my righteous fury), which of course sealed my fate and ensured everyone misspelled it on a regular basis.
Personally I think MarkG should find a way to have my name randomly misspelled when displayed. I'd get PLUS for that.

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- NedComment

I dont think it was tuber that told me but i know it was him that confirmed it and told me the background behind it

incidentally i hate hate hate it when people shorten my name to "gibs"Comment

"Gibsie" seems more natural.
Tuberski, however, is not a real name so it doesn't bother me if it's shortened.
ACK!

So much for that concept
