anybody else get the urge to pronounce "PDF" as "puhduff" instead of "Pee-dee-eff"?

@g i do this with a lot of file extensions. even ones where you really ought not to. like bmp. i do not say "bee emm pee" I do not say "bitmap". I say "bump"

@Nine if i think of anymore file names that i have a weird name for ill tell you

@joshua jpg is the really hard one. obviously i tend to pronounce it jaypeg. but... it always feels like that's too... i dunno...

what THEY want me to pronouce it as and it kinda gets my hackles up, like, fuck you, techbros. I'm gonna pronouce it MY way, j-just as soon as I figure out what that is...

because juh-puhG is just... it's awful.

@joshua docx is a nice easy one tho.

you just call it "dokkkssss" with the emphasis on elongating the sssss noise.
