Well I could ask all American's if they would could please start putting the "u" in words that should have them, like "colour" because it annoys me, but that's the way they were all taught. You've just gotta.....deal with it! ;)

I'm American and it annoys me that we don't put U's in things. We need more U's.

Well to be honest, I think we should spell those words like that because that's how we say them, Americans should spell them the way we do because they say them like we spell them, if that makes any sense. :)

Sorry, haha, but don't you think so? Americans like to put a lot of "rrrrr" into their "Rs".

LOL, sorry, now you're going to need a new brain. Just take Linus', I'm sure he won't mind. :P

If it annoys you, then you're an ignorant, unexposed moron who thinks that anything different is wrong.

I'm looking at YOU, America!

Wow. Just wow.

If something annoys someone they aren't ignorant. They just have a different view. You probably get annoyed at some things, no? Hypocrite.

If we are going to change his pronunciation of anything then I think we should go for Asus first, since they often sponsor him and stuff.

 

How to pronounce it:

 

How Linus pronounce it:

 

 

Also, it's "jiff" not "gif". The creator apparently thinks it stands for "giraffing interchange format" and not "graphic interchange format".

You're right, it was an exaggeration, but I mean, seriously, getting annoyed at someone pronouncing a word in a way that could conceivably be correct, without any real reason? I mean, wow, come on. It's okay to get annoyed at someone for making a stupid mistake, it's a different story entirely when someone isn't and it irritates someone anyway.

Hahah, I remember the first time on netlinked, Linus was talking about something with a zero in it, and he said "zed", and I was like, "did I miss something??"
I think its cool that we have different pronunciations, gives uniqueness  :D
