Nike

[BomberGal]

Just a debate I regularly have with my friends...

How do you say Nike? Do you say it like, 'bikie' or do you say it like 'bike'?

Personally, I say it like 'bikie.'

...?

 

[PiesPremiers]

[NICK THE PIE MAN]

[Destructive]

Beat me to it.

I refuse to buy their crap made in sweatshops.

I pronounce it like "bikie". Not that I actually own anything with that brand name.

Reminds me of the story when Nike were offering customised shoes where you could have your name printed on them. One bloke ordered a pair of shoes with the word "sweatshop" on them. Naturally they refused, after a series of emails back and forth about the reasons why, this dude grudgingly accepted their reasons but requested a 'photo of the ten year old Vietnamese girl who made them'.

For Lego, do you say Laygo or Leggo? This seems to differ between states - I say Laygo.
