Wasn't it QuoteXCurly? Somebody who never came back after it was released at least.

I just read it as GEAR-A-CHEEZUR (GIRaCHEEZER instead of GIRakaCHEEZER). I know it isn't correct since I am dropping two letters, but it certainly is easier on the tongue, being an easy flowing 4 syllables instead of a disjointed 5 or 6.

Or just call him GIR like the rest of us.

I read it as GER(as in "Germany")-A.K.A-CHEESER. I guess I really does suck at English.

Oh no now it's going to be "gif" vs "jif" all over again.

There are multiple different ways to pronounce something in English based solely on how it is spelt. I wouldn't be too concerned about the accuracy of your pronunciation of a made up word.

No one here can demote G I R, he will forever be eternal in this ancient husk of a forum.
Much like how our spirits are locked within it, there's no escape.

uhh so how exactly IS it pronounced? I always read is as grr-A-k-a-cheezer. But apparently everyone says it's "gear."

Also i like how this thread turned into a thread about how to pronounce Gir's name.

Gear is the canonical pronunciation.

"Grr" is the correct pronounciation, but "gear" has been gaining popularity ever since that one video which I can no longer find a link to.

Is the "aka" pronounced letter by letter, or as a word?

Amazing how they were able to vote without the poll counting it.

Technically lurkers can't vote. Although we can't accept their pseudo-votes anyway, since this matter doesn't affect lurkers.
