Jandalf, yes I was once called that. Jandalf the Jray.
My giant giraffe agrees.
If you're still unconvinced, say "G"
The letter starts with the J sound.
Checkmate atheists.
I may sound haughty and knowledgable when I say JiF then, but between just you and me, I didn't know a damn thing about this and just decided to say it this way in my brain for reasons that remain unclear.
Me too. I just always said it with a soft G because my brain told me that's how it was pronounced.
Yes but actually no
Oh yeah? Well lick my gargantuan gorilla gonads.
(I'm actually team jif but can't help myself)
One thing I learned recently is that if GIF shall be pronounced "GIF" like the G in Graphical, JPEG shall be pronounced "JFEG" like the P in Photography
Just droppin that in
Would be the worst retroactive devaluation of a body of literary work since JK Rowling showed the world how she really is.
You can tell that’s fine art because it says it is.
Picasso did the same thing.
Jicasso?
No, Picasso, pronounced Pizza-so.
I read that as "Yan-dolf".
I am not even making this up.
OK you fancy Dutch dude. What're ya gonna do now? Brag about bicycles and socialized medicine?!!! (He says, jealous af)
You mean yealous
And Elrond is Hispanic elf
Anyone who uses the argument that Graphical is pronounced with a hard G sound needs to think about how they pronounce other acronyms, like SCUBA, NASA, LASER, SONAR, POG, SIM... the list goes on.
I do say N(ay)SA to annoy people.
The creator of the GIF format says it's pronounced like Jiff, like the peanut butter.
He's wrong, even though he created the format.
comes back
Bilbo is gay!
dies
comes back
Nazgul are just men in dresses!
not canceled cause that's true
All letters before A are silent.
Aragorn: You have my sword.
Legolas: And you have my bow.
Gimli: And my HAX.
I love Lejolas and Jimli's gokes.
He should also come out with some delicious spreads for toast, he could call them Jamdalf.

Tolkien fanatics: "Link?"
Also...link?
Yandalf the Yrey
Ohh i see it's a geeraffe, a long necked animal.
And power ranger called down a guyan robot to fight guyan monster enemy.
The genius Tolkien, ever generous, gestured for a round of gin martinis from his giant gentle giraffe. Over gentle murmurs from the crowd, I caught the gist of his speech: genuinely it’s pronounced Jandalf.
