Gates

Fun, funny, short-tempered, immature, wise, cheery, always smiling, obnoxious but sweet, and loud. Gates(s) is a particular boy/girl whom always seems to be smiling, and making others laugh for the fun of it. Gates is an out going person who will attempt anything and everything, no matter what it is. They're strong willed and strong minded, nothing ever brings this person down. Gates(s) hate rules, and always try to find a way to find a void in them. A Gates is also someone who will become your best friend if you get past their obnoxious, odd ways. Gates has a tough way in life, but they will do their best to see the brighter side of everything. Befriending this kind of person would be the best decision in your life, because no matter how old you are, where you'll be in life, Gates will always be the person you can rely on the most. If you already have a Gates in your life, consider yourself to be incredibly lucky!

Gates

Gates most commonly affiliated with billionaire mogul Bill Gates, is not in fact related to him in the slightest. Instead, it is a certain saying said by many an epic gamer and can be used to say that someone is doing something or that they are about to get very hyped. It can also be used as a saying of great excitement and happiness, even to an extent of relief.
