The entirety of bbno$ can only be pronounced if you already know it’s “baby no money” or whatever. When you replace an existing s with a dollar sign, it’s usually (not always) pronounced the same as it had been.

It’s just pronounced like an s.

This reminds me of a gag in a music video where someone called Ke$ha “Kay - dollar sign - hah”

“Micro$oft”

I thought that until I was downvoted a bit back for calling them “M$” in reply to someone’s post about how they don’t want to switch to 11. I can’t imagine where that’s coming from, but it was a good few accounts.

I was told it came across as “unserious” and childish. I think it’s neither: I’m adamant that M$ is garbage and I’m quite serious about the advice I had given in my post to prioritize getting off of 10 before the hackers manage to find something worth exploiting.

M$ managed to make hating on them uncool somehow. Boggles my mind.

They didn’t spend eight years in moneybags medical school to be Mx/Mr/Ms/Mrs, thankyouverymuch
