...except......I first used the word Heysi (and pronounced it as Hey-Sigh) back in 1983. A swimmer born 3 years later in Cuba has no standing in the International Court of Words. In fact...I may have her parents arrested for not sending me Rum as a token of goodwill for giving them such a great name.
 
If you know anything about binomial nomenclature and genus/species scientific names….. species names ending in -i are pronounced -eye.
 
I’ll defend @NurseDave in medical terminology we would pronounce anything with one terminal “i” as “ee” :
Digiti Minimi (didge-e-tee minee-me)

Only with two ii do you get the terminal “eye” sound:
Brachii (brake-ee-eye)


(Plus Dave’s been bingo caller before and likely will be again soon, so I’ll consider this an investment)

I'm flying blind on this game. No idea what anyone could get or will get. Plus that mystery factor of the bonus call each day. I'll only promise that tomorrow will be fun.
 
I found 3 of the 4 - I must be missing something simple - but only have 1 number….

I couldn’t find the GIF I was looking for with Top Gun Goose Saying “This is not Good” , I couldn’t only find him with the middle finger (I’l save that one for later)……so this will have to suffice….

Where Bob = HEYSI (and in my head I pronounce it HAY SEE) - because HEYSI obviously doesn’t know how to pronounce it. He’s too busy giving out numbers that no one has……

Interesting that this part of your post doesn't appear above......(oh....I'm seeing it now)

As Bingo Wizard and all out Ego-maniac about myself.....I declare that I AM HEYSI (Hey-Sigh) if you don't like it....tough.

Whoa....I blacked out for a second. Did I say anything weird or controversial while I was out?

I’m pretty sure that the corporate compliance seminar this year listed telling people how to pronounce their own names as a form of aggression.

I guess it’s time for me to kiss up to @heysi now too…
([see] “please pronounce that as [sigh]”)
 
This was an interesting example of how we interpret usernames, and will sometimes pronounce them in our heads in a different way than they were meant. I knew the acronym that HEYSI stemmed from, but I still pronounced it in my head wrong. When the question was asked, I had a strong feeling I was pronouncing it wrong.

I was going to make a video sunday morning and as I started to record I realized I was about to say my username and that it would give away this mornings trivia question.

Sure, blame the game as the reason you decided not to make a video.
 
Since it is Pronounced......
