Before anyone gets all bent out of shape, this post is in jest and is mostly about the silliness of words spelled vs. words said..

MEGA.

I have no issues with this part.

ZEUX.

I have issues with this and how everyone says it. Huge issues.

First, I feel that if anyone involved with the project wanted to call it ZOOKS, they would have, first off.

Second, is there a collective memory hole that everyone has fallen into in which they don't know that these names and words exist?

1.) PAPPADEUX. Pronounced PA-PA-DOE. DOE. Not DOOKS.
2.) EUX suffix in french. Pronounced OH as in, "oO, I dind't know it was pronounced that way"
3.) MILLIEUX. Pronounced MIL OH.
4.) Insert literally every word that ends in EUX and no one OOKS it up.

So, in the future, please, use the French way to say it. It just sounds more classy. Zooks? That just reminds me of GADZOOKS, that gaudy mall teen fashion hell hole from the 90s.

(please, again, this is all a joke, don't take it seriously!)
