    Oppenheimer eventually had to come to terms with having lost control of the Bomb. This is like that. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/10072420/Creator-of-the-GIF-says-it-is-pronounced-Jif.html …

        Anyone pronouncing it with a hard “g” is a god damn savage. It’s obviously pronounced as “jif”

        Ok, if I invented a word that was gif with a hard G as in "golf" how would I spell it?

        Not that he's doing this, but if I ever invent anything I'm going to arbitrarily change the pronunciation of the name from time to time just to stir things up.

        Richard Dawkins coined the term "meme" to describe an idea that evolves away from the original meaning it was given. Ironically, the word is now used to describe gifs, photos, and videos on the internet--a completely different meaning than what it was originally given.
