Great, now I'm angry. · 10:02pm Apr 24th, 2022

But seriously.

Gif is the image format. Jif is the peanut butter.

I don't get that either. Absolutely should be pronounced with the G like from 'Graphics.' :ajbemused:

That video is hilarious, though. :rainbowlaugh:

Sonic: "Name one word that starts with 'G' pronounced like 'J.'
Shadow: "Gentrification."
Sonic: "Shoot, should have thought of that. I was just in San Fransisco."

That line cracked me up.

Honestly, if the inventor of GIFs had meant for it to be pronounced like the peanut butter brand Jif, they should have put a 'J' in the acronym. Besides, I could imagine someone who'd never seen a .gif file name hear the J pronunciation and believe it was spelled .jif.

Shadow makes some very good points.

I was going to say something along those lines.

They are both pronouncing it wrong, it's pronounced "Greg"

Just wait until you get into the comments for that video:

Pro-tip: pronounce it "yiff" for extra psychological damage.

SO! Fun fact: The person who invented it says it's pronounced as a J.
Just goes to show you how dumb smart people can be.

I'm glad someone gets it, I've been posting this joke anywhere this debate happens

Is it bad that I instantly recognized the music, and started reflexively pressing the buttons to skip to the boss fight?
