Am I the only one who can't help but see it as Ascii Licker?
- TallGuyShort 7y agoThe ii in Ascii looks like li, so closer to Asslicker.
- metalliqaz 7y agoin what font does 'ii' look like 'li' ?
- TallGuyShort 7y agoSeriously? Any font that only separates the line from the dot with 1 or 2 pixels. Especially if you're only glancing long enough that a c could be mistaken for an l.
- bigwavedave 7y agoIf that's the case, shouldn't it look like "ascllcker"?
- TallGuyShort 7y agoAre you saying that if someone wrote 'cick my balls' you're not going to think for a brief moment they said something else?
- PhasmaFelis 7y agoOur minds try to fit uncertain patterns into familiar shapes, like the classic email forward: "Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe."
- metalliqaz 7y agoYeah, seriously. I can only remember problems discerning characters with the I, l, and 1 in Ariel. Unless there is a kerning problem, I've never had trouble discerning lowercase i and l. Just like I've never had issues discerning b and h. They have similar strokes, but are clearly different.
- njharman 7y agoAll the san serif ones.
- teppifk 7y agoYou are not the only one. "Says more about you then it..." blah, blah, blah. The fact is, Asciicker is not a word, is absolutely weird phonetically and asslicker is a close appearing viable compound word. Good for those so pure of mind they do not see it.
- tomcooks 7y agoWeird phonetically? ASCII spells like ask-he, so it should read as asskicker. Pretty phonetically sound, no?

- vanderZwan 7y agoAh yes, the famous Aphex Twin chiptune demake (joking, joking. There is no Windowlicker 8-bit cover as far as I can tell. Somewhat surprising, actually)
- equalunique 7y agoGot my hopes up, for a second there. Currently this is the closest approximation I can find: https://youtu.be/hfr1ddGM6Rk https://youtu.be/hfr1ddGM6Rk
- robdachshund 7y agoPretty sure it's As Ciicker aka ass kicker
