Jiv me a break
(lemmy.ml)
I will face Jod and walk backward into hell before I say "jiff"
Jraphic interface format really sounds right /s
Right, because Gs are never pronounced with a "J" sound, and acronyms are never pronounced differently than their full terms. Sound logic there; well done. Never mind any of these:
NASA- National Aeronautics Space Uhdministration
NATO- North Ayy-tlantic Treaty Organization
LASER- Light Ayy-mplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation
SCUBA- Self Contained Oonderwater Breathing Uhpparatus
FOMO- Fear ohhf missing ohht
ASAP- Ayys soon ayys possible
POC- People ohhf solor
PIN- Personal id-entification number
BOGO- Buy ohhn get ohhn
POTUS- President ohhf the Uhhnited States
YOLO- You only live ohhnce
AWOL- Ayy-bsent without awfficial leave
ICE- Eyemmigration and Sustoms Enforcement
DARE- Drug Ayybuse Resistance Education
NASA - National Ah-ronautics and Space Uh-dministration
LASER - Light Ay-mplification by Ztimulated Eh-mission of Radiation
ICE - Eye-mmigration and Sustoms -nforcement (E is silent)
DARE - Drug Ay-buse Resistance -ducation (ditto)
Let me just get my Self Contained Oonderwater Breathing Uhpparatus ready /s

oh that's easy, it's "dot gif"
Yiff
Um, I don't know how to tell you, but that means a wiiiildly different thing. 🤣
Why do people have to pronounced it in any way? Why not say G-I-F? I've been saying it like that since before I knew about the huge debate💀
Because that's 3 syllables instead of 1. Ain't nobody got time for that!

I was devastated to learn the creators intended it to be pronounced "jif" like the peanut butter brand
Yeah, because it's a jraphical interface format.
So do you say j-feg? Because the p stands for photographic
One of the common nonsensical arguments heard. What's the next one?

One of the few times I don't care what the creator says, he was wrong.
And yet your mind knows it's not possible for him to be wrong since he named it.

We all know it's pronounced "gif".
Yeah with the g like in garage.
Or the g in gigantic.

Pronounced it as a soft g in my head the first time I read it, and years later the creator said it was meant to be a soft g, so I feel validated.
When you create an image format, name it whatever you want and if it's any good and I use it, I'll call it what you want
