The ones that have heard it pronounce it jif

I don’t see why you’re so insistent on being wrong

When I hear someone mispronounce gif as jif, I tend to know exactly what type of person they are.

It's the children who are wrong, all three billion of them. The only ones who are right are me and my friends. We don't have any justification or valid argument, we're just right because we say we are.

That's you. That's what you sound like.

You literally thought that most of the species knew what gifs were

Still do. To be clear, I'm talking about the human species, not like moths or turtles or something. Smart phones are pretty common, actually.
