Is it Gif? Or Jif?

May 12, 2020/Brian Simpson

How do you pronounce .gif?

Does monogamy go against our nature?

Should the bill be split evenly regardless of what you order?

These are just a few of the random questions from a recent Buzzfeed survey.

No real “life-or-death” stuff on the rest of the list, either.

FYI, most people(68%) pronounce .gif with a hard ‘G’ sound instead of a ‘J’ sound.

I was honestly surprised how close the results were for the statement “Putting child leashes on kids is wrong”.

And I was saddened by the results of the pitbull question.

Also, am I the only person who thinks it’s strange that people put two spaces after a period instead of one?

Apparently not. 77% of people disagree with two spaces after a period.

    I pronounce it both ways. My friends and I go back and forth on how it’s pronounced.
