At first glance my mind always replaces the r with a c and I think we’re talking about the 1998 classic SLC Punk.
I read it like it sounds. Like "Sputnik", but Slrpnk.
I keep reading it as "slurp-ink," personally.
Slurp ink
Slur pink
For me, it's "Slurpnik". You'll have to ask Vlad or Igor what it means, I guess.
Same, I keep imagining it as some variation on ‘beatnik’.
"slurp ink motherfucker" sounds like what an octopus says when you piss it off.
Is it the same people that pronounce SQL as "sequel"?
Wait, do you actually say the letters every time? Just think of how many syllables you've wasted in aggregate over the years!
I usually just don't talk, that saves even more syllables
When it's obviously "school?"
you mean it's not 'squeal'?
I think you mean "ass quail"
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.
Someone on here the other day said it's actually squirrel
Squeeeeel for me
slrpnk.net mentioned
My first Fediverse instance!
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.
Shoddy memeing from someone named @NickwithaC@lemmy.world
You mean it's not SLR punk, in reference to the cameras?
It's always been "slur punk" for me XD
slur punk?
Would listen.
slurp nuke
I've been reading it as Slur Punk. Still not as bad as reading CNT-FAI as Cunt Fay.
Slorp ank
I always read it as "s-l-r-p- oh fuck it, whatever, what a fucking random ass name is that"
Oh! That's what it means!
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
