Sloppysoft or Microslop?

Debating which word to add to my lexicon this year.

[-] thurstylark@lemmy.today 18 points 2 weeks ago

I'd be down with both, but my heart is with Microslop. Keeping the first six letters the same really gears the listener up to hear "microsoft" before pulling the rug out from under 'em

[-] extremeboredom@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Yes, Microslop is the clear choice here. If you say "sloppysoft" no one will have any idea what you're talking about.

Is it weird that the word Sloppysoft gives me the tingles down there?

[-] k0e3@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago

Either way it sounds like the worst penis.

That's why it makes the Microsoft CEO feel so targeted.

Sloppysoft sounds like a euphemism. Ima go with microslop...shit that also sounds like a euphemism!

I feel like Sloppysoft is most accurate because Microslop implies they are only making a little and not shifting to entirely slop.

Just remember that that the Micro is Microcomputer in Microcomputer Software, and then it's okay
