Maybe they meant GTA?
Since I invariably wind up getting “name suits” types of comments, here’s the explanation behind it:
Around the turn of the millennium, I was trying to come up with a username to use on a particular site that had a shortish character count limit for usernames. My goal was something related to the fact that I would often be making my points in arguments with “holier-than-thou” types by taking what they were saying, and turning it on its head so the offensive stuff was directed back at them.
I also happened to learn shortly beforehand that many years ago “'ape” was somewhat commonly used as a verb to mean “imitate” or “copy.”
I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

Guess that’s why it’s still sitting on the store shelf even after reducing the price.
Very first thought I had. So nice to see others with some culture here.

Said the guy trying to impress the girl he’s just met at the bar (with heavy emphasis on the word “enormous”).

I always thought that “truth is stranger than fiction” thing was so rarely true that I never understood why I heard it so often.
Then came Trump.
Men like Trump, who want to get credit for all the things that people supporting him consider good, and deflect blame for all the crappy things he’s actually responsible for (or that any respectable leader would take responsibility for because they are the leader, regardless of if they actually were behind it).
2·2 days agoI personally might try to say something like that simply to show that I respect who you are, and am willing to learn if it helps the comfort level between us. But, yeah, unfortunately a lot of people can be jerks for a variety of reasons - and it’s difficult to discern people’s real motivations, so I can appreciate how you feel the need to play it that way. I hope you’re doing okay, considering how far down the shithole this country has gone over the past decade plus. I can’t imagine what you have to put up with.
10·2 days agoMeh, I’m honestly surprised this is just now happening. “Never trust work-supplied devices for anything personal or unprofessional” seems a pretty basic rule.
So, they’re really giving their all when they give head?
She couldn’t even get the plural of “month” correct, you want her to know the difference between months and weeks?

2·2 days agoMaybe they have small hands AND a large screen to compensate. Don’t shame.
What even would be the point of someone doing that?

Better than a “John” of a… uhm… particular trade.
