I meant to be G.U.I. just like you would say NCAA...or fbi...never i my life have i heard someone call it gooey.

its gooey... and ive worked in several offices with several hundred other techs. G.U.I. is something noobs say.

thats not a good example as GUI is more like how people say AIDS instead of A.I.D.S. and "asskey" instead of ASCII and "Gif" instead of G-I-F.

only time i would ever say G-U-I is when im talking to a non technical person or just to sound supertechnical i would say Graphical User Interface.

All the technical people you know haven't been laid in 30 years either. They apparently don't know any better than to use words like "gooey" and don't realize how nerdy it makes them.

:D

in case u missed it. roughly 29 years ago women made the transition from jocks to geeks. so whatever makes us look/seem geekier the more/hotter the women u get.

"nerds" are a different story

Get some counseling if it makes you feel that bad to sound "silly"

gooey makes me cringe the same way someone says "moist", "panties", "frothy", "treats", and "goodies"

use them all together at once in a sentence, I barf on command
