Slur pink

For me, it’s “Slurpnik”. You’ll have to ask Vlad or Igor what it means, I guess.
Show threadSlurpingPusMar 21
Same, I keep imagining it as some variation on ‘beatnik’.

I keep accidentally seeing “shipwreck.”

Doesn’t work because only vowels are removed. For slurp neck to work it’d need to be slrpnck. You know, with a C!

tsk.

Is it the same people that pronounce SQL as “sequel”?

When it’s obviously “school?”
Show threadaeiouMar 20
you mean it’s not ‘squeal’?
Show threadrockerface🇺🇦Mar 20
I think you mean “ass quail”
Show threadbaronvonjMar 20
Wait, do you actually say the letters every time? Just think of how many syllables you’ve wasted in aggregate over the years!
Show threadrockerface🇺🇦Mar 20
I usually just don’t talk, that saves even more syllables

I spent 20 years working as a sys admin, moving to new offices around the globe every few years. No matter which country I worked in, every single sys admin I’ve ever worked with always pronounced it “sequel.” I’ve never met anyone in real life who spelled out the letters when speaking it.

It’s always been “slur punk” for me XD
Show threadKlearMar 20
Oh! That’s what it means!

slur punk?
Show threadKenny2999Mar 20
Would listen.
Show threadAssassassinMar 20
It’s always been an otomotopoea (really fucked the spelling on that) to me. Like, the sound of someone sliding a can across the floor and into a bell. Sluuuuurrrrrrrrrr pink
Show threadSunsofoldMar 20
You mean it’s not SLR punk, in reference to the cameras?
Show threadrobocallMar 20
Slorp ank

I’ve been reading it as Slur Punk. Still not as bad as reading CNT-FAI as Cunt Fay.
Show threadbackalleycoyoteMar 21
At first glance my mind always replaces the r with a c and I think we’re talking about the 1998 classic SLC Punk.

Slurp NK (North Korea)

I read it like it sounds. Like “Sputnik”, but Slrpnk.
