how do you pronounce it?

is it FOBB (short O, like BOB or COB or JOB or LOB or MOB or ROB or SOB or SNOB)?
OR is it FOBE (long O, like LOBE or ROBE)?
OR is it letter by letter F-O-B (eff oh bee)?

for those who don't know, FOB is an acronym from Fresh Off (the) Boat.

i say FOBE, others say FOBB.

hmm... F-O-B is just too long for me...
why 3 syllables, when you can do it in just one?

i guess only me and some of my frends say FOBE... :Q

I noticed that a lot of Asian people say "F-O-B" (I'm Asian BTW). I just say FOB like rhyming with "bob".

Well, my girlfriend's Vietnamese and she's the first person I've ever heard say it, so I pretty much got it from her..
