So what do you call pocktable flash memory drives with a USB interface?

[Throckmorton]

Thumbdrive. It's annoying how the things don't have a single universal name.

 

[shortylickens]

I still say Thumb Drive.

Please make your pole bigger.

USB Drive or Flash Drive. Everything else just sounds retarded to me (no offense).

This. The name comes from the fact that the drive is about the size of a thumb and fits in your nose.

My thumb doesn't fit in my nose.

Then you're not trying hard enough.

Mine doesn't fit either, I just tried 🙁

My thumb doesn't fit in my nose.

Better question: Who here tried to see if they could put their thumb in their nose after reading this?

[Jeff7]

Flash drive or thumb drive.

Depends on who I'm talking to - some people wouldn't know what "flash drive" would be referring to.
And it might depend on the previous word and the resulting position of my lips and tongue; one word might be easier to say than the other.

 

[coldmeat]

memory stick... apparently I'm the only one.
