Nah, there are no such rules, like anything else, initialisms are defined by speakers of the language, and that’s what industry professionals seem to use most often.
Mama told me not to come.
She said, that ain’t the way to have fun.

Yup, pretty much the same. If we do get email, they’re usually pretty short, or they’re corporate nonsense.
The C is hard because the second word is “Computer.” The O in “Computer” becomes a “u” sound because “scossy” sounds odd.
I love physical books as well, I just don’t like storing them. So yeah, libraries rock.
I wish more authors accepted donations. I read a ton of books from my library, and I’m happy to give them some money every now and then, but I don’t really want to have the actual book. Publishers take so much of they money, that I often just end up not bothering.
Exactly. And most libraries won’t take them as donations, and if they do, they’ll probably just toss it if it doesn’t sell on their $1 bin.
I still buy books, I just wish there was a more efficient way of rewarding the author. For that $10 book, I’m guessing the author gets $1-2, so why don’t we just split the different and give me the e-book for $4-5?
I took a shortcut, I wanted to write a book, so I did a first draft, then completely forgot about it.
Boom, all the satisfaction of writing a book without most of the actual work.
Ah, I thought it was like “clit,” but missing the “t.” That could get you sent to HR…
It’s just copy/pasted from here (link is in the sidebar).
As a probably not autistic person, email is one area where warmth is not wanted. Just get to the point, I have a dozen more to get through. And that’s precisely why you shouldn’t use AI to write email, AI rambles, I want 1-2 sentences, short phrases are fine.
Nah, it’s scuzzy.
And when I’m trolling, I say “huh-tu-tu-puh” for HTTP.
Huh, short i?
Nope, G-U-I is objectively wrong. Get off A7thStone’s lawn, we’re having a nice chat.
Nah, creator says soft-g. Just like gigawatts.
sad pikachu
What about squill?
I can call you Betty
Instructions unclear: phone is absolutely shattered.
But seriously, bats already have echo location, so they’re basically already phones.
Maybe it’s a regional thing, or maybe you’re just a hothead, hard to tell.
Either way, in my region, “scuzzy” and “sequel” are the dominant pronunciations for SCSI and SQL in my field.
