What's your EARL ???

The first time someone asked me this I said, " What the hell's my what?"

Seems they just wanted my website address. I've always said U.R.L. and pronounced the letters.

How about you? Is there a norm? Does it really matter?

I pronounce it "website address" or "domain name"

Guess it's because I can't spell ULR... I mean, RLU.. uhmm...

I say each, depends on who i'm talking to and what their skill level is.

My mom would have no idea what an "earl" or a URL is. She woudln't even know what a domain name is.

She would know what a website address is.

Read that earl back to me.

"Earl has to die" (dixie chix)

Its U.R.L.

"earl" sounds like some stoopid fuckin' valley-trash speak.

I spell URL, but I saw LAWL for "lol"

But people who actually say LAWL in a conversation are stupid. Either laugh or say "thats funny", but never say LAWL

For the love of God, don't!

I have never heard it said that way, and i live in the South where we are known for coming up with hick-sounding things. Even rednecks pronounce it "U.R.L".

A domain name instead or spell out the letters instead of just saying URL to make sure.

I have never in my life heard a URL called a "earl". This is like the first time I heard the term "I'm fixing to"..... HUH?
