- winnit 4y agoDoesn't it rather rhyme with 'ethnics'? 'ethics' is to my ear, a half-rhyme...
- tomc1985 4y agoI've always thought it was pronounced like 'techniques' and at first thought the author was talking about the turntable/hi-fi brand
- axolotlgod 4y agoI prefer tethics lol
- trinsic2 4y agoI like that better than technics. :D
