    It's pronounced "b'n-AIR," it's French!

      @scribus Do you mean the word "binaire"?

        @northernnarwhal I was just trying to think of a pretentious faux-French pronunciation of "kiwi."

          @scribus Oh, the first French word that came to my mind which seemed to fit what you were saying was the French word for binary ("binaire"), which is pronounced as "bee-nair". I kind of figured it was a joke but didn't even realize it was based off an English word. If you're interested, the French word for banana is actually pretty similar to the English one, it's "banane" pronounced as "bah-nan" (think of pronouncing "banana" but dropping the last "na" sound and replacing the a that sounds like an "and" with an a that sounds more like an "ah")

            @northernnarwhal Still wasn't shooting for "banana," it was just a flawless fruit filter moment. :P

                              @thelastgherkin It took this being said twice for me to realize you and scribus were actually quoting the show.

                                @northernnarwhal I tried typing it in her voice but the font is nonstandard and not strictly web-safe.
