7 Internet Words You’ve Been Mispronouncing Like “GIF”

2012/05/07

Though it has been long debated, the correct pronunciation of the GIF can no longer be questioned. It is well documented that the father of the GIF, Steve Wilhite, pronounces it as Jiff with a soft G, not a hard G.

Mind blowing, I know. It’s going to take some adjusting. You might even want to practice it in front of your mirror for a while. Now, I don’t want to overwhelm you, but we here at Slacktory have uncovered a few more words that we have all been mispronouncing.

Internet: Did you know it is pronounced Eye-nternet, not Enter-net? This makes a lot of sense because the Internet is something you look at with your eyes, not enter with your body.

Wi-Fi: While everyone thinks Wi-Fi is pronounced Why-Fy, it is actually pronounced wiffy. This is derived from the fact that most Wi-Fi hotspots are pretty iffy.

TheArrogantAgnostic and His “Tapes”

2012/04/02

My new favorite YouTube vlogger goes by the username TheArrogantAgnostic. For April Fool’s Day, a group of us on Tumblr decided to randomly start posting about an obscure vlogger as if he was an amazing new viral sensation. I discovered TheArrogantAgnostic and the joke was on. But after a day of watching this man’s rants, I am genuinely entertained and can’t wait for his next one.

TheArrogantAgnostic is a “52-year-old white guy that don’t make a lot of money” and is not a Republican, a Democrat, or “none of that.” But he does have a lot of opinions on topics such politics, tattoos, and drugs.

It all started on March 2, 2012 with his first video,
