"gibs" or "jibs"? over on www.gamespy.com there is an article on gibs and jibs. it is a classic question though, everytime you see it so and so was gibbed by so and so, you wonder which way to pronounce it, and then you simply 'get over it' and call it whichever. anyway you can vote on gamespy and check out which is most popular. personally i think it is gib, and everytime sonic says "jib" i cringe. but sonic is different i suppose.

definitely, altho the guts of a chicken are called (phonetically) jiblets arent they? Not that the two are related, but probably.

Sure sign I am back in UL when I actually have time to think about something as stupid as this

Rooter of course. none of that yankee BS here, just cos its in english doesn't mean the pronounciation has to be consistent
