I'm neither, I refuse to pronounce acronyms if it doesn't make sense to do so.
Same thing with 'gooey' for GUI, except I hate that even more because that straight up elicits feelings of disgust, I don't want anything gooey anywhere near any electronics
I've literally never heard GUI said as "gee ewe eye" before.
