Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 9:32am Dan B From Upstate:

From what I understand, the file type creator named it after 'jif' peanut butter and intended it to be pronunced the same way. That being said... I still say gif with a hard g.

As I see it, JIF peanut butter (not to mention jiff files) are already a thing, an existing brand and pronunciation. GIF, like a gift from the gods, is a unique pronunciation, a brand unto itself.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 9:37am AndyIowa:

Morning all! Glad to see the Marathon total creeping closer to where it needs to be. I also say .gif with a hard g, but yeah: en.wikipedia.org...

Either way, Ken's data CD is gonna rock hard.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 9:38am Nick the Bard:

"CompuServe used to distribute a graphics display program called CompuShow. In the documentation for version 8.33 in the FAQ section, it states:

The GIF (Graphics Interchange Format), pronounced "JIF", was designed by CompuServe and the official specification released in June of 1987.

There, straight from the inventors of the format. "

'J' like jiffy *was* the precedent
- but it *is* a 'G' for Graphics.
- Many words are pronounced more than one way - especially in different countries (even between the U.S. & Britain).
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 9:41am Jeezy:

Enough about the damn gifs, people! It's CRUNCH TIME!
If you haven't pledged, DO IT NOW.
If you have, try posting something on all your social media. Set an fbook status or tweet the links to WFMU and promote the cause!!
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 9:41am Caryn:

@Mike: that's the thing. If you pronounce GIF with a soft G, you could get it confused with JIF files. So screw CompuServe, who were deep down just probably trying to mess with a competing image file type by having the same pronunciation. Bullying tactics don't fly with me. Same way I ain't using Myanmar just because some junta wants me to.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 9:42am braveness23:

Thanks for the suggestion @Jeezy. My GF is a farmer and actually grows ginger and keeps bees. I'll have to look in the freezer and see if we still have some of last years ginger. It was fabulous and would certainly help. Just wish I had thought of it before leaving for work...

@F.•●F.•● (: just how it's spelled, "kiddie". Who cares if that will lead to it easily being confused with other real-world stuff. Here at CompuServe, we don't give a crap. Which is, incidentally, the way you pronounce our new file type, JWRHAPH.

@Caryn, my friend's own a record store and they used to clear out the dollar bins by holding an event at the bar down stairs where they would play a record and then you paid a dollar to have it play through or have them stop immediately so you could smash it. They told me they might have to stop because everybody wants to buy the crap now.

Yeah, first Ken spends years setting up a show strategy, where he plays what he thinks people will hate, making his listeners extremely comfortable with listening to unlistenable stuff.

WC Fields and Churchill, rather like the kangaroo and llama, probably look similar if viewed head-on as well.

@Mark S: it is also a well-known Churchill quote. Now, whether all the witty quotes attributed to Churchill, Groucho Marx, Dorothy Parker, Oscar Wilde etc. were actually said by them is another issue. So even though the quote is always associated with Churchill, maybe it was someone else, maybe in the same entourage.

Gene Simmons: "...Paul [Stanley] and I were in a Los Angeles airport and a senior woman - who I would say was in her 70s - came over with a cane and she said, 'Oh, Gene Simmons, how are you? I haven't seen you in forever,'' he recalled to Australian radio show hosts Kyle and Jackie O.

"I think, 'Oh, your daughters are fans, your granddaughters are fans...' She said, 'Don't you remember? 1975 backstage, during the drum solo...' So I did some quick arithmetic: I must have been 25 and she could have been ten, 15 years older. Oh my god, I slept with grandma!"

sounds like Jif
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:39am Caryn:

I was neutral on the GIF issue (used both, though maybe "gif" a little more) until Ken started ranting about it. Now I'm vehemently anti-"jif".

Huh Glenn? HUH??? Don't make me google that at work...but I will later.

O_o This is an annoying song?

Cheri are you smoking that out of your Dimension Hatröss bong

these "terrible" songs are totally tolerable.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:41am Ike:

This fun. song is not that terrible. They're not very talented and their songs are clumsy, but it's mostly harmless.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:42am Ken From Hyde Park:

Whatever is this background music, I tell my daughter it's a cell phone commercial whenever we hear it.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:42am tomasz.:

what on earth is this song
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:42am ottovonbqe:

Thanks Ken, I just killed myself.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:42am Caryn:

I wouldn't be surprised if WFMU played fun. during the 12 years when they weren't popular. I'm fine with hearing this for as long as Ken plays it.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:42am woj:

I dont' know Ken Careless Whisper seemed to work pretty good last time.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:43am tomasz.:

oh, is this fun.? i appreciate the superfluous dot in their name.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:43am SeanG:

horrific song

It's that new Rolling Stones single!

You know something's a craze when the first 3 times you hear about it, somebody is complaining about it.

Only 2K more to hit 800K, dear freeloaders. This is your moment to strike.
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:44am joe:

Hey how come Fun didn't get put on the playlist?
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:44am Nick the Bard:

Can we go back to the fun. song?
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:44am Caryn:

@tomasz: they had to add it because there already was a Finnish band named fun. Wouldn't know that random bit of trivia if I wasn't Finnish.
  Wed. 3/13/13 11:44am Guz:

One of the best concerts (though the Agora in Cleveland is a dump) i've ever been to, Eagles of DM are amazing.
  Wed. 3/13/13 11:44am trish:

the older, better and more original version.

I saw the Eagles of Death Metal open for Peaches years ago in Atlanta. They were lots of fun.
  Wed. 3/13/13 11:47am Marie:

Hey, Has Ken played any Rush? I think I smoked crack a couple of times. Ick, so chemical-sweet tasting. (Meanwhile I'm chugging beer of all kinds and smoking weed to excess--go figure).
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:48am tomasz.:

Caryn: wow, good punctuation fact! i was going to claim i added mine because there was already a Finnish tomasz, but that would be a stupid thing to say
Avatar ♥   Wed. 3/13/13 11:48am Ike:

Caryn, I think Pseu played one of their songs, but that's it. Most FMU DJs would not "stoop" to even play Arcade Fire which is 100000x better than fun. There is a big blind spot for modern/alt rock on this station (which is prob. mostly not intentional and it's OK with me, I can get that elsewhere) but it would interesting to hear an FMU DJ make use of the some of the good alt bands in cool segues with multiple genres. I wish I was talented enough to do it.

also i'd just like to say i'm at work and every time the playlist refreshes i have to scroll down to get dude's Norwegian ass off the screen
