I’ve come to think of it as a (really) good thing - no financially motivated tech megacorp is gonna sell a monthly “sub to Gimp”.
(Tho a clothes rental company might.)
Idk abt GIMP but hard agree about Gnome. Whenever someone uses a human foot as a logo = certified sex freak.
Obviously Tarantino was involved. A little foot fetish never hurt nobody-- right? Right???
Or how about 3 naked people in a circle holding hands. And somehow this guy is like one of the least problematic white South African billionaires.
Well, the bar is subterranean
It’s a gnome foot though.
shortstack foot fetish with a little bit of dom sprinkled in
Guh-nome
This is the correct pronunciation
It’s true, but I also can’t bring myself to say it!
Virgin Media would like a word
I knew they were British, so I always assumed it had something to do with the whole Virgin Queen thing(it was and is a nickname for Elizabeth the first) or something like that, but it was apparently because they considered themselves virgins in business when they started their first record store.
I thought Richard Branson just liked sex
YouTube apparently censors “GIMP”
What “Gimp” could stand for?
GNU(not linux) Image Manipulation Program.
Its all rolled into GIMP, kinda like someone zipped up a suit. Oops.
A type of bondage suit
It’s also a slur for disabled people.
GNU image manipulation program.
But what does the GNU stand for?
GNU stands dor “GNU’s Not Unix”
I always thought it was a clever sex pervert acronym for
Graphic
Image
Manipulation
Program
Its actually GNU image manipulation program, so pretty much.
Or “Green Is My Pepper” if you ask RMS…
it stands for GNU is Not Unix Image Manipulation Program…
wait it is GNU is Not Unix is Not Unix Image Manipulation
oh no, they put a recursion in the name!!!
LINUx is not UNIX is not UNIX.
Damn it, they did it again.
GNU Incredible Magic Projector.
If it did circles, it’d destroy half the world.
oh is that why that brush is in there
*GNU Is My Pepper
And originally it was “general image manipulation program”.
And we’re pronouncing it JIMP?
gust take your upvote and jet out of here
Instrunctions unclear, geeted out.
Ohh fuck no don’t start this suit again
Gimp

I remember someone pointed out that GIMP probably would never get adopted in a company or professional environment just because of the name. Imagine suggesting that someone should use “GIMP” in a work meeting, lol. It’s not necessarily a problem, but it’s a funny limitation that they put on the software.
See, most people have no clue that “gimp” is a sex thing. They just see it as a funny-sounding acronym. In an actual work meeting, the people who do know wouldn’t say anything about it to avoid being seen as the weird ones.
I’m sad that more people haven’t seen Pulp Fiction.
You just had to bring it out.
Coq cowardly renamed their project because of this.
I use GIMP at work. It’s officially approved in a very tightly restrained environment, literally in a repository of software people can install from. At an enterprise with thousands of employees.
I’m pretty sure only people who know what it is install it, never heard anyone so much as mention it.
You’re lucky to have IT even know what GIMP is, much less have it officially approved.
Every place I’ve been at was like “what’s that?”
Bet they couldn’t even find the cli terminal.
The clit, for short
One of the very very few times this meme is used correctly. Congratulations!
