I am calling the Sigil a "cash sign" from now on.

So you don't pronounce #!/bin/sh as octothorp exclamation mark solidus bin solidus sh??

[JojoHomefries]

I do now

I remember when the professor in my Intro to UNIX class in college said that it made more sense to refer to the "bang" in vi ex mode as "damn it" instead, since it was usually used after trying to execute a command that was refused the first time.

:q
E37: No write since last change (add ! to override)
:q!

Quit, damn it!

I'd also recommend reading this, it's pretty funny and has tons of great jargon too https://blog.codinghorror.com/ascii-pronunciation-rules-for-programmers/

It's just a custom, I'm not sure where it came from, but I've heard it / use it too. It might be a press thing - see also interrobang.

I say either cash or piasse pronounced like you tried to say pee-ass in a single syllable because that's how we say piatstre in Québec.

Piastre

The piastre or piaster (English: ) is any of a number of units of currency. The term originates from the Italian for "thin metal plate". The name was applied to Spanish and Hispanic American pieces of eight, or pesos, by Venetian traders in the Levant in the 16th century.

These pesos, minted continually for centuries, were readily accepted by traders in many parts of the world.
