DISQUS

I've been in the habit of saying "dub dub dub".

I'd have written the pronunciation "duh-bel-you"- the b is definitely part of the second syllable when I say it.

But, in practice, I stick with dub-dub-dub as well.

For some reason, "dub dub dub" really gets on my nerves. Although, I'm probably not much better; half the time I catch myself skipping the middle syllable altogether which comes out dubbaya dubbaya dubbaya.

"Tripple-DoubleYou" doesn't bother me near as much.

It also really annoys me when people try to pronounce acronyms.

Earl for URL as one example.

There are a lot more that I can't remember right now, but Earl is definitely in my top 10.
