Oh, generally I just say


#%$#&@#$@$#$*%

or perhaps

Это всасывает

or even


Ceci suce

But BOth pronunciations you asked about are perfectly correct.

(says the English teacher.)

I've heard it said both ways and I'm not sure either. I guess either way, people know what we're saying. lol

Dye ahh bee tis -- said like Wilford Brimley and my Grandmother (Rest in Peace)

Dye ahh bee teeze -- said by everyone else under 70 (it seems)

Dye ahh bee teeze

gets my vote. I don't know if I have ever heard it pronounced the other way. Funny. I guess I have lived a quite sheltered life.

Nope. 'fraid not. I wish I had, though, because I feel like I am missing out on one of those pop culture moments. Jeesh. I should have watched more TV. I should watch more TV.
