Personal life
Seananners is currently in a relationship with Cathy Diep. Cathy and Adam met during his employment at Machinima.com when Seananners was a host for the Respawn team, and she was in Marketing. They kept their relationship secretive initially, until recently when Cathy appeared in some of his videos where they were playing a game together. He may also be married to Cathy Diep according to a recent Twitch Stream.
"Never Trust Nanners"
"Never Trust Nanners" (NTN or #NTN) is a saying developed by Seananners' gaming partners which references his gameplay in the Gmod minigame Trouble in Terrorist Town. The game involves a group of unknown players ("Traitors") attempting to kill all those not within that group (the "Innocent") while the Innocent attempt to discover and eliminate all the Traitors. As Seananners is often selected as a Traitor and is quite proficient at convincing the Innocent of his trustworthiness (before killing them), Seananners' friends have become quite skeptical of his innocence.
Seananners, as a Traitor (or aiding one) often ad-libs elaborate stories to attract innocent players, before killing them all. These stories are also told in many of his other videos, such as his Hidden series, and usually precede his killing of another character. Fellow Youtuber ChilledChaos was get chased by Nanners and Chilled said "Spoon if i die I'm with Nanner's." Then so Chilled hid in a closet that Spoon was close to and Spoon revealed his spot and that's when Nanners killed him and Chilled yelled "Never Trust Nanners!"
