How do YOU pronounce "MPSIMS"?

Hell, that just changed in a hurry. M.P.SIMS!

Damn you, Coldy Clogs. :smiley:

Empy-isms

It was only last month that I realized that I had mentally reversed the ‘i’ and the ‘s.’ Thus, my pronounciation is somewhat dyslexic. Can’t break the habit now!

I pronounce it “em PIZZ ums” (almost like FrankD6). But before I was enlightened, I pronounced it “M-P-S-isms”.

M.P. Sims. Usually.
When I’m not logged in, but Lex is, I’ll ask “What’s new on M.P. Sims?” or “What’s up with Mundane Pointless today?”

M.P. Sims – it never occurred to me to call it anything else, oddly.

I’m similar. I actually say it: Empysisms. I know that’s not how it’s spelled, but whatever. :slight_smile:

Em Pee Ess Aye Em Ess
(I do a lot of work with IBM stuff.)

You already know this, but I’ll throw my vote in anyway. I say M. P. Sims


Work is fine for killin’ time, but it’s a shaky way to make a living.

I used to call it Em Pee Sims, along with a lot of people apparently. But now I think I’m going to have to start calling it Em-possums as per your suggestion…

I spell it out letter by letter, as if it were NFL or FBI.

I pronounce each letter individually, like tomndbebb and MoosieGirl. Either that, or I’ll say “Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share”. I remember at the So. Cal Doper’s meeting Melin was looking at me funny when I said Emm Pee Ess I Emm Ess.

Oh, my, my.

tomndebb, for some reason, your post made me think of an old gag of my mother’s.
F U N E X?
S, V F X.
F U N E M?
S, V F M.
Y, L F D M N X.

Why, oh why, do these things stick in my brain?

I dunno why, but I think of it as:

PMSisms

But that would probably apply more to the Pit.

Dyslexia can be fnu.

I spell it, like Tom.

I pronounce it as if it were a MpDonald’s product.

i say

m-p-sims

yeah…:stuck_out_tongue:

Ohmygosh - it just occured to me - Mickey Pees!

em-piz-ems

The general consensus of both the NYC and the Spiffled/Chicago SDMB crews is “mipsims”.
