I gotta ask...

[Jason]

What does :gary: mean?

And, yes...I fully expect several posters to reply with :gary: . :pop:

But, could someone please tell me how this board came about the :gary: emoticon, and it's meaning? Thanks in advance. :)

[Leroy Lizard]

storm watch.

[SoonerLB]

It's for those that are keyboard challenged. ;)

[delhalew]

In addition, I think of it as a step below and slightly more indifferent than facepalm. That is just my personal feeling.

[OUmillenium]

It's Wyatt's best friend's name.

:gary:

[AlboSooner]

it has to mean Gary England will keep you safe, but some people just use it to use it. there is one dude or girl, that all he/she posts, is that avatar. i tired to laugh or find the funny side of posting that over and over, but couldn't.

[Jason]

Thanks, all. :)

[XingTheRubicon]

I should kill myself for knowing what this means.

Thanks! that helps:confused:

[MeMyself&Me]

I thought it meant storms are brewn' but I really don't know.

[A Sooner in Texas]

My take is that Gary is ever-vigilant, always watching, always waiting.



Does that help? :gary:

so...I created a post a week or so ago in which I tried to attach a picture. It didnt work because I attached it incorrectly...I got a "Gary" as a response.

tell me how that explaination applies.

I will be much more at peace as a man and Sooner once I understand this.

Maybe Gary just showed up to help you.

Or maybe Gary is just who you want Gary to be.

Is Gary Big Brother?

[Jason]

So, what I'm able to surmise from the responses to date, is :gary: is most applicable when one anticipates a message board argument about to occur. (i.e. storm watch or debate brewing).

However, for the most part, people misapply :gary: to just about any situation, just for the sake of it.

Sound about right? :)
