Does it drive you nuts when people write Dee Jay or Em Cee?

I can't stand it...
DJ Johnny Falvelo 4:14 AM - 3 February, 2012
It's a little bothersome. But what drives me more insane is the DJ's that write "Segway" instead of the correct spelling "Segue" It's all over the place too. It's like DJ's accepted the misspelled word as the way to spell it so they all spell it that way. Grrrr!

Look them up in a dictionary or even Wikipedia Geeeez.

Segway may refer to:

* Segway PT, a two wheeled self-balancing personal transport

Segue
In recorded music, a segue is a seamless transition between one song and another. The effect is often achieved through beat matching, especially on dance and disco recordings

Nothing wrong with freedom of speech...but we also have freedom of opinion...and sometimes it's damn annoying, in my opinion of course....

+1 swag swagga is so over played, I never liked it in the first place but the funny thing is that it takes people years to catch on, papoose was using the word swag back in 2006-7 and all a sudden in 2011 it blows up
DJ Nick Lee 8:39 AM - 4 February, 2012
Valentymes instead of Valentines kills me.

Soulja Boy built his career off of that word. When he used it, it was immediately dead to me.

Papa Midnight 4:32 AM - 5 February, 2012
Labtop instead of Laptop; and people don't just spell it like that, they pronounce it like that.
DJ Remy USA, I'd actually be surprised if you hadn't heard it before, because truth be told, I never heard someone say that till I got to the DMV area.
DJ Remy USA 2:13 AM - 6 February, 2012

DJDeluchi 4:16 AM - 6 February, 2012

dee jay or em cee is not a short form.... I think they just don't know that DJ and MC are, like you said, acronyms.
DJ Shady Lady 6:16 PM - 7 February, 2012

Years ago when I was in community college my A+ instructor would pronounce it like that.
That shit used to bug the hell out of me. Like, really dude? Labtop? Needless to say, I had to study on my own to pass that test.
