Welcome. Don't try and stereotype me just yet. Learn a little first.

Let me answer a couple questions for you below that I get asked every day. One sentence should be enough, but if you if still want to "label" me, feel free to continue reading. Maybe I judged you to soon, you know what you should read this I think you would enjoy it, or if you already know me I give you permission to skip to the last one.

Well, I'm Gerry. 

Think you know me yet? That's just a nickname. I love having a nickname like Gerry. You can't judge someone with a name as a nickname. The "y" just throws off everyone, don't worry. Nicknames ending in "y" just became too predictable. Think about it. Bobby - Bob, most likely Robert. I have yet to met a Bobert. Timmy - Tim - Timothy. Nicky - Nick - Nicholas. Alex - Alexander. Chris - Christopher. You know what Chris's of the world, I salute you. Because you have an alias. Maybe your names Christian. People don't know of a first impression. Christian? GOD? Oh no not religion, let's change the subject before someone gets crucified.

Isn't it funny a girl caught your attention?

Well, I'm still Gerry.

Gerry? Maybe he's a Jeremy? Jeremiah? Jerald? Jarred? Jarret? Jerome? Jerry? Nope known of these. Why would any of those possibly be my actual name. Think! Do you see a "G" in any of those. I've just always been called Gerry. I can't even remember ever introducing myself as anything else. To be honest most people don't know what it is. I like it like that. It always did cause awkward first days of grade school though.

Wait so you’re Gerry? Not Jerry?

Correct! I never said I was Jerry, you assumed so. It's kind of an insult when people act like I messed up. Like I pronounced and spelled my own name wrong. That's called having a different name. "Shouldn't we call you Gary or Geary!" I'll admit there is no such thing as stupid question, but there are stupid people who make stupid statements. If you sincerely asked me I would explain. I spell my name with a G because my actual name is. It started with a "G" doesn't that make sense to spell my nickname with a "G." But no, you try and tell me that I'm wrong. I have a birth certificate with my name that proves how stupid you really are. So, if I wanted to be called Gary, then I would call myself Gary. But I don't, do I?.... (long pause to put your thoughts together.) You learn to accept that some people although they appear normal have extremely low IQ's "Oh yeah I guess your right." If you take one things away from that answer, remember one thing. Learn from your mistakes or else you'll turn stupid, and yes stupidity has no limit. It is possible to become stupider. There's no such word as "stupidest" it can always get worse.

G? Hmmmm? Can you explain?

That's why I love my name/nickname combo. With just two simple names. I create at least 10 different characters; individuals; personalities; in your head. With just one word Gerry and a thought what does it stand for? Gerald! is personally my favorite alias. Only because it's the most common guess, but no that's not my name either.

Isn't it funny how you still don't know me. Would the fact that I wasn't born in America but am still an American born citizen change anything? Yes, I could still be President, how did that happen? Can you start over I'm confused...

Still not enough until next time? Try finding the not highlighted "Gerry".
