Siffie

Today, I turned the TV on to the Sci-Fi Channel and it was gone. In a puff of acrid smoke, just POOF! Gone. Siffie, ::points menacingly at her TV::, you have no Geek cred. Go home before the Nerds beat you up.

They changed the name to Siffie? Because syfy is polish for venereal disease? I mean, siffie sounds like a nickname for syphilis!

"Sorry, Jim, can't come in to work today, I've got a bad case of the siffies in the brain! Yeah, damn that hooker! She said she was clean!"

Urban Dictionary is on top of the situation, as always.

Honestly, I thought it was just a stupid joke at first. Did Sci-Fi hire Burger King's creepy cracked-out ad department or something?

They changed the fucking name to something incredibly lame. SYFY. Fuck you Sci- fi....you were already an abbreviation....and now you look like a fucking stock symbol.

WHY would they do that?

Retards.
