New one I just became aware of:

How does everyone say SQL?

aulin,

Ess Queue Ell. I didn’t hear the sequel pronunciation until I was well in my thirties and even then only by people older than me. Then I started working with it myself and heard people younger than me pronouncing it sequel, so now I have no idea. I still hear Ess Queue Ell from the vast majority though.

flambonkscious,

It’s an initialisation, not an acronym, so it’s only:

Ess-queue-ell.

Surely anything else is madness

pooberbee,

Your logic is circular

flambonkscious,

Sorry, I don’t understand

pooberbee,

An acronym is a kind of initialism that can be pronounced like a word e.g. NASA. Your reasoning for why it can’t be pronounced as a word (“sequel”) depends on it not being an acronym. But, since many people do pronounce it that way, it is, in fact, an acronym and can be pronounced that way.

flambonkscious,

Holy shit, I completely forgot about using the term sequel - you are absolutely correct!

WheeGeetheCat,
@WheeGeetheCat@sh.itjust.works avatar

And yet everyone I know who has used it pre-2010s ish says ‘sequel’

flambonkscious,

Yeah, I’m just a dumb-ass that completely forgot

pooberbee,

I like to call it “Squeal” sometimes, but usually I call it “Sequel”.

I go back and forth between “Ess Cue Ell”, “Sequel”, and “You Fucking Whore”

dipbeneaththelasers,

This is what we do at work.

My dad has used SQL forever and calls it "Sequel."

tdawg, (edited )

Depends on the context

MySQL: my es que el

SQL Server: sequel Server

PostgreSQL: Postgress

or by itself just es que el

jeremyparker,

Really, my ess cue ell? I say mysequel 100% of the time. But I’m trying to get into the Primagen’s My Squeal pronunciation

wombat, in Doesn't help that I keep thinking 2010 was like 6 years ago.

1990 was about 10 years ago

kemsat, in Fall guy

Should be a super smash bros character

postnataldrip, in Trying to pay rent these days...

Yeah… this isn’t a meme, it’s literally children being sold.

As I recall it, the family were facing eviction, and the kids were indeed sold, including the one she was pregnant with. A couple of them ended up basically being slaves on a farm somewhere.

I’ll laugh at plenty of things I probably shouldn’t but this isn’t one of them.

  • Lauchs,

    Whatever works for you!

    TunaCowboy,

    My grandfather was sold into what amounted to slavery during this time period under similar circumstances. Many of these children were treated with incredible cruelty, then grew up and were shipped off to war. Mostly voluntarily, given that war was actually a quality of life improvement where they got perks like socks and food.

    gardner,
    Omega_Haxors,

    The consequence of edgy “ha ha slavery funny” humor. This is why punching down is never ok.

    Lauchs,

    I must be misunderstanding, are you suggesting this lady sold her kids because of bad jokes?

    Or what is the consequence you’re talking about? The consequence of dark humour is seeing dark humour?

    Omega_Haxors,

    You saw this as hilarious rather than horrifying.

    Lauchs,

    Well, I saw an opportunity to make a joke about the cost of housing.

    I don’t think it was hilarious but I chuckled and thought to contribute to our content desperate platform.

    But yeah, I do like my humour dark.

    Omega_Haxors,

    People don’t have to like it. Again, don’t punch down it can have disastrous consequences for people who really don’t need it.

    Lauchs,

    I’m genuinely struggling to think of a non ridiculous chain of events that leads to disastrous consequences here.

    Omega_Haxors,

    Keep wondering then. ✌️

    Lauchs,

    Phew, I’m glad I’m not the only one who couldn’t think of an example! I was feeling kinda silly there for a sec.

    Could have labelled the Melanin as M’lanin
