      I use a hard G but this is a bad argument. I’ll just link to this great list of counterexamples:

          JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group. So by the other user’s logic, you shouldn’t be using the hard /p/ sound.

    Data definitely says the hard g. His interests are in being more human. Not pedantically arguing about the way the creator says things in an attempt to upend the majority. The latter is definitely Lore’s jam, though

    Be more like Data.

    Always pronounce it “GIF.”

    Never “JIF.”

    Only Lore does that.
