how do you say GIF out loud?
do you say jif like the peanut butter or gif with the "g" sounding like guitar? It stands for Graphics Interchange Format so I lean towards the graphics and guitar "g" sound. I've heard alot of people saying jif so was curious what most people think about it.

I'd think it would be pronounced with a "G" sound, but what do I know? I used to think "meme" was pronounced "ME ME."

Rhymes with "cream," I think. At least that's how I've heard it. I'm not very good at dorkspeak.

I say it with the 'j' and hearing it with the 'g' irritates me, but I refuse to let myself care overly because Chris Hardwick and Wil Wheaton argue about it all the time and they're two of the most irritating guys on earth, particularly when arguing about nerd stuff.

Weird. I've never even heard of, or considered the idea of pronouncing it with a J.
