Area codes for example. Mine would be 'Oh one three eight six' not 'zero one three eight six'

"O".
I also take it a little bit further by pronouncing 8 as "bee", because it sort of looks like a B.

So you have even taken this obsession to the point of refusing to pronouce movies the way the creators pronounced them, because they're technically wrong?reefsurfer wrote:yep.. because its zero's, not "oh's"R00k wrote:

Is it zero-five-hundred-hours at 05:00?
Posted: Tue Aug 15, 2006 11:39 pm
we say either 'zero-five' or 'oh-five-hundred', not mixed though
ass crack of dawn works too
we don't say'zero-dark-thirty', just 'oh-dark-thirty'
there is neither a zero-two or an oh-two-hundred, rather a 'two fucking early'

Because they've fucked up the spelling and pronounciation of the majority of the English language, why should it be any different for numbers?
