Jeez... I told you guys it wasn't "geez" and was instead "Jeez" when meaning "Jeez" but some of you use "geez" instead.

So... here we are... the age-old debate. Is "Jeez" or "Geez" the proper spelling? I have always gone with "Jeez" and recent research has shown that I was correct.

Definitions, anyone?

jeez Pronunciation Key (jz)
interj.
Used to express surprise or annoyance.

[Alteration of Jesus.]

Whereas, "geez" is:

Ge'ez Pronunciation Key (g-z, gz)
n.
An ancient Afro-Asiatic language that is related to Amharic and other modern languages of Ethiopia and Eritrea and is still used as a liturgical language in the Ethiopian Coptic Church. Also called Ethiopic.

You Have Made It!!!

you'll have people all around you saying WHUT A GAS she is.
but dont let it stop there, when the PIGS come to HASSLE you and yours, tell them "PEACE BRO., I'm All About Love
not WAR, and as they begin to bash your head in ,for no apparent reason, hand them a flower...
THEN YOU KNOW YOU'VE MADE IT!!!

We should all just be really sinful and forego 'jeez' for 'JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.' Or any variation similar to that.
I mean, like, where is the sun?
