    This is awful. Looks like what AI would produce.

    “G as in Gif” would have been much more evil.

        Almost crying trying to explain why it’s more convenient to pronounce GIF with a hard G, while people pronounce it with J, and how it makes it easy to confuse with the JIF format

          Or worse, the peanut butter.

      Honestly this doesn’t bother me half as bad as the ‘M as in’ part does. It should be

      Mancy
      Alpha
      Romeo
      Bravo
      Lima
      Echo

      Not:

      M as in Mancy
      A as in Alpha
      R as in Romeo
      B as in Bravo
      L as in Lima
      E as in Echo

        True but also, people are stupid/ easily confused and have a lot of trouble figuring out what you mean unless you use the “As In” description.

        Source : I both take and make a lot of support calls. I’d say about 1 in 5 or so people can handle the NATO alphabet at a normal speaking speed.

        Yeah I just rattle off actual phonetic alphabet elements when on the phone with anyone I have to give long alphanumeric strings to. Occasionally it throws people off until they understand what I’m doing, but usually it is clearly understood on the first try.
