You mean it's not SLR punk, in reference to the cameras?

Would listen.

It's always been an otomotopoea (really fucked the spelling on that) to me. Like, the sound of someone sliding a can across the floor and into a bell. Sluuuuurrrrrrrrrr pink

It's always been "slur punk" for me XD

Is it the same people that pronounce SQL as "sequel"?

[–] baronvonj@piefed.social 7 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Wait, do you actually say the letters every time? Just think of how many syllables you've wasted in aggregate over the years!

[–] rockerface@lemmy.cafe 5 points 45 minutes ago (1 children)

I usually just don't talk, that saves even more syllables

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

When it's obviously "school?"

[–] aeiou@piefed.social 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

you mean it's not 'squeal'?

[–] rockerface@lemmy.cafe 1 points 37 minutes ago

I think you mean "ass quail"

[–] Klear@quokk.au 1 points 1 hour ago

Oh! That's what it means!

[–] thisfro@slrpnk.net 10 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

My first Fediverse instance!

[–] pomegranatefern@sh.itjust.works 19 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I keep reading it as "slurp-ink," personally.

[–] Jimbabwe@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

Doesn’t work because only vowels are removed. For slurp neck to work it’d need to be slrpnck. You know, with a C!

tsk.

Shoddy memeing from someone named @NickwithaC@lemmy.world

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago

I keep accidentally seeing “shipwreck.”

[–] 30p87@feddit.org 3 points 4 hours ago

I alwaye read it as "s-l-r-p- of fuck it whatever what a fucking random ass name is that"
