I would say car, but usually I would just say "character".
I pronounce it: care
[QUOTE=Icedshot;35217035]Just out of mild curiosity, how does one go about finding a 1 and a half year old thread? Surely nowhere near the front page of the programming forum?[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Robbi;35217093]I saw a link in the programming joke thread. Blame them![/QUOTE]

Turn it down, to the left
Take it back now ya’ll
Sch-arr
Char, but keracter.
Char as in Character, what the fuck is it with all of you saying char as in charred? That's weird...
Yeah, I said Char as in 'Care'
I pronounce "char" like "[URL="http://images.wikia.com/animalcrossing/images/9/91/Char2.jpg"]char[/URL]"
[QUOTE=zatox9632;26195721]Because everyone that pronounces a word a certain way must be dumb, right?

When I went to TechEd one year all of the Microsoft dev's pronounced EXE "exy" as in "Sexy" without an "s".
It got on my nerves every freaking time I heard it.
Char, Boo li an, Sequel (SQL), Int ee jer, Cashh

That's like challenging someone to join a team who hates blue and say you love that color. If they decline you because of an opinion like that, they're idiots...

It's not that. You'd expect some professionalism and surely at least knowledge of English language. You don't pronounce character charr - akter do you? Its carr - akter. CAR GODDAMIT!

I work with a bunch of senior level dudes and for one, everyone says it like "charred" and two they don't really care if you say it as 'car' or 'char'

You're right! You and nobody else is right! How did I not see this before! Thanks for opening my eyes.

wow that just shows what environment you work in. Good job.

You're either very dumb or just trolling.
Are you seriously implying that a work place that doesn't care about minor differences in a pronounciation of a 4 letter word is inferior to the one that does?
Tjargh

chill. It's just wrong. Accept that.
The first time I heard "char" was in my computer science class. My teacher said it was char as in "charcoal." I've been unable to change to "car" since.

Even if that were true, who cares?

Actually, you'd expects professionals not to care about irrelevant and trivial issues like these that are purely opinion. Can't say that much about a programming forum, though, right?
the difference between 'char' and 'car' is like 'coupon' and '[queue]-pon' or 'coyote' being kai-oh-tee or kai-ote
people pronounce it both ways and nobody really gives a shit about it unless you're some loser autist

You rate the quality of the software by its price? Are you serious?

Well, you rate the professionalism of developers by how they pronounce 'char', it's not like anything is off limits at this point...
