Ive just been told that some people think that the term "gib" or "gibbing": when a character is blown into chunky bits, is supposed to be pronounced with a J.
Apparently it's because the word giblets is also pronounced with a J, so gibbing should also be pronounced with a J.
Sounds like a gif vs jif argument if you ask me.
What do you think?

it's short for giblets (pronounced with a J sound) so any pronunciation other than with a J sound is objectively wrong

if its derived from giblet which is pronounced jiblet then I think it'd be jibbing or jibs.
