Real programmers refuse to refer to MSSQL as anything except TransactSQL or TSQL because 1) MSSQL is a fucking mouthful whether you prefer Sequel or ess-cue-el and 2) because those assholes named their RDBMS SQLServer thud leading to the constant confused "How is the SQL server doing?" 'SQL Server? We're not a Micro$oft shop..."

The real complex one is whether you're a postgre-ess-cue-el, postgres-cue-el, postgres-ess-cue-el, postgre-sequel, postgres-equal or postgres-sequel aficionado... and if you enjoy postgres-equal please fucking leave now.
