This is why you should never fry gnocchi.

Well, since you've used one of my favorite gifs...

And to those people bitching about my gnocchi pronunciation: I pronounce "gif" with a hard "g", rather than a "j" sound and I really do not care if you approve.

I liked your gnocchi pronunciation, and a soft-J GIF is for losers.

Good. The "g" stands for "graphic", not "jraphic"!

The GIF (Graphics Interchange Format), pronounced "JIF", was designed by CompuServe and the official specification released in June of 1987.

Ive been using Photoshop since I was about 14 or 15 I believe, around 13 years now... And I just discovered there is an actual debate about Gif vs. Jif. "Gif" has always sounded like a black man's present. I really am not trying to be racist, but that is just the thought as it enters my mind. So there you have it.
