It's kinda implied from the way you wrote that.

Ah, I do love me some ad hom. attacks. Please, go ahead, insult me and downvote me. I won't judge your choices. I never said I was socialist

Reddit does have just one front page, it's just that the standards to get there are different for each subreddit. There is s definite FP tho

And you disagree? Wow.

What? Please, enlighten me as to what this has to do with socialism?

"Supposed to be about funny pictures" no it wasn't. It was started as an image hosting site for reddit, without a "community".

Yeah, but we were talking about pronunciation.

Also, thanks for the downvotes

That doesn't make it impossible.

But to declare it impossible also requires proof. You could say it's unlikely, and that would be true, but impossible? No.

It's not "good" at all. There are major problems we're dealing with here that we have no idea about.

I'm assuming this is a post about books, but I see the fire extinguisher quote:

No, inflation (caused by many outside forces) does that. Minimum wage has a negligible impact on inflation.

It's not impossible, it just doesn't fit with our current understanding of the universe.

I pronounce image like "ɪmɪdʒ", so with a dj sound.

I pronounce imager like image-ur, so, although I guess it technically is a soft g, it's not /j/.

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

No, imgur is supposed to be pronounced imager (hard g), I said that I sometimes mispronounce it.

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

I DON'T contend that. I pronounce gif as jif, although imager is more difficult to say than im-jur.

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 2

Yes, that is the issue. I was simply stating the official pronunciation with no opinion on whether it was "correct".

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

According to the creators of Imgur, imager is the correct (and annoying) pronunciation.

Jee-mayl

Huh? How are those related? Jay-peg is the obvious and logical pronunciation, and no one says otherwise.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Wait, what? I've never heard anyone say gill with /j/. Is it actually pronounced that way?

10 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

Actually, imgur is supposed to be pronounced "imager" (source: FAQ), so no, they're not pronounced the same.

10 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 3

Yes, but that's not the argument. They're mistakenly saying that because the base words are pronounced x way, the acronym also should be.
