Now I understand why they were so insistent that "gaim" didn't stand for anything. But more to the point, on more than one occasion, I have heard the lame and immature joke that Gaim is "Gay AIM..." not that it insulted me (oh no, I'm using an open source IM client... I must be gay, right?) but it just got annoying (note that most of the people who made this joke actually ended up using gaim after they saw it in action).
