The Nexerus said
Jiff is the objectively correct pronunciation. Ever had gin, Sole?

Obama disagrees, you unfree Canadian scum

Card said
Even though the inventor of gifs came out and said it's Jiff?

Don't you dare support those scum bags

Awson said
Listen here cunts.Most people pronounce it as gif (gift). Plus it's a lot less stupid to call it that. I don't have a fucking peanut butter brand releasing his powerful hado as my avatar. I have a gif.I don't give a fuck if the inventor of it said it like an idiot.At the very least, there shouldn't be anyone telling anyone else that they are pronouncing it wrong. Fuck off to the entire debate.

thank you for this

[Doivid]

The Nexerus said
In that case, the next time I use 'lol' verbally and say '.gif' in the same sentence, I'll make sure to pronounce it wrong intentionally.

Thank god someone had to post this.

Can't we just accept both pronunciations as widely-used and move on? I don't see anyone arguing over whether or "soda" or "pop" is the correct term to describe a fizzy beverage, so let's not argue over this one.

Well yeah, but soda is actually the correct term. I hope you know that.

Soda-pop.

[Kaga]

What have I started now.

Derp said (Also,

I don't think that's used correctly in this instance.

[Derpestein]

I thought it was called Soda Pop together...

Soda-pop.

are you from the 50s

[stark]

I don't care if the inventor says he pronounces it 'jiff'. I'll continue to say it how I want, which is how it looks like it should be pronounced.

And, for the record, it's 'soda', not 'pop'. (Because I say lolnope.)

Now the important question: Whatchoo call yo' sandwich --> Hoagie, grinder, or sub?

yeah you kinda fucked up there. Messed up your whole mediator role by opening a can of worms.

But which do you say, kaga? this is important.

I thought subs and hoagies were certain types of sandwiches. I've never said grinder, but I've heard of it. I think it's much more important over in NYC with all your delis and your pastrami on rye and all that.

also you're correct on both accounts, well done holmes!

I call a sandwich...
