When someone refers to it as "SeX"

[Hockeymac18]

It just feels so forced. Like, "Se" is not how you abbreviate "Series," like ever.

Whenever I see someone post it I assume they have to be, max, thirteen years old. It's not in any way clever, it just reads as "teehee, I just said 'sex!'" Like yelling "penis!" and then running away giggling.

"SNES" is fine, unless you pronounce it as sness, which is an abomination.

This.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

Let's talk about SeX, baby

 

[weekev]

It's not as funny as the Xbone, but that's not our fault.

We have to work with what they give us.

It is when you realise the XBone has led to Sex.

 

[cowbanana]

A lot, especially if it is uttered by someone above the age of ten.

 

[MeepMerp]

Between Sex and Pls5(Piss), which would you rather choose? I think it's kind of obvious.

 

[KartuneDX]

SeX is here to stay, especially when it'll compliment the SeS (Series S). Xbox SX might be able to fly but I'm not crazy about Xbox SS.

To be honest I cringed more at this topic and poll lol

Have not seen it once yet

Why not both

 

[MZZ]

XSX has horrible flow and does not feel good to read at all.

Series X or SX is easier. Essex or SeX if you want to trigger "mature" people lol.

 

[Scottoest]

It doesn't feel good to read it? lol.

 

[Scruffy8642]

First Xbone, then SeX. Is Microsoft trying to sell us something lmao.

Go home Trump, no golden showers today.

 

[DaleCooper]

To be honest, the "Series X" naming is the closest Microsoft has ever been to the whole Sexbox joke. Seems like they find it funny.

 

[Last_colossi]

It's a fun acronym, don't take it so seriously?

 

[Spinning Plates]

I love it. More SeS SeX please.

 

[xtib81]

People like to cringe for nothing these days. I personally don't care

 

[Tomo815]

Better than SAD tbh

 

[PRrambo_]

I don't really care.

Must people I know IRL are referring to it as just The New Xbox FWIW

 

[TheRealBigRich]

To me at least the Xbone made sense. X-Xbox B-box one. Sex only makes sense like S- Series E- Eries X- Xbox. Like where is the E for lol

 

[SxP]

It feels forced for sure. But the fact that it triggers people just makes it worth using.

Similarly, I think Xbone would have never caught on in 2013 as well as it did if it didn't really trigger people the way it did.

 

[Alex840]

It's 'Series X'

3 syllables isn't long enough to need to shorten. People who call it 'SeX' are the same people who get excited for 420 and still laugh at 69 jokes.

 

[lupinko]

It's not our fault that Microsoft went with a dumb naming convention. They brought it upon themselves just like Xbone and Xbone SAD.

 

[Crayon]

Its kind of funny. I don't hate it.

 

[dodo021]

SeX is still better than people writing M$

 

[John Caboose]

Wow. Did you do the same with Xbone?

Click to shrink...

I do. It's utterly pathetic console warrior nonsense. It's like writing PeeS4 or something. Kindergarten shit.

 

[HMD]

I think it's funny how an abbreviation can fuck with the image of a mega corporation's product, please continue to use SeX.

 

[Yes]

Haha, what? Piss? Omg

I agree with Xbone and Sad. Sex seems like an each from series X. I've never seen series turned into se

 

[Wesker]

I don't care but I still silently roll my eyes once in a while.
I'll just call it Xbox, which coincidentally is actually the same.

 

[Wet Jimmy]

To me it speaks volumes about the author. None of it good. Super forced and cringe-worthy.

 

[Yes]

PlS5 and SeX, I love it!

 

[elzeus]

XseX for me

 

[DGS]

I haven't seen someone using SeX since the first showing, but I'll try to use it from now on. So much prudery here.

 

[danhz]

Its the SeX bomb SeX bomb...

 

[Neural]

I do. It's utterly pathetic console warrior nonsense. It's like writing PeeS4 or something. Kindergarten shit.

I actually was asking if OP made a similar topic when people started calling Xbox One "Xbone" :) I personally don't use these names but don't really care when people use them.

Where the piss name thing even come from? Why Pls?

From PS to Pls? lol, wtf?

It's really embarrassing.

Sony themselves write it PlayStation, so PIS, not Pls.

 

[chromatic9]

No SeX please, we're British

 

[Hong]

I dunno I think it's pretty funny. It's not as good as Xbone though. Just reading SeX doesn't make it immediately clear what you're talking about.. XSX is what's going stick I think.

 

[MaverickHunterAsh]

I've only seen it referred to as "XSex," never "SeX."

Doesn't make me cringe either way, though. I mean, following up the XBone with the XSex... they're doing it to themselves.

 

[24thFrame]

Sexbox, XBONE, SeX... it's basically tradition

 

[TheKeyPit]

I'm confused. Shorter than what ?

Click to shrink...

Lmao that's not shorter

Buncha prudes in here.


What?

Click to shrink...

When I see someone use SeX it is most of the time accompanied with "Xbox".

"Xbox SeX"

Why use that when you can just use XSX.

It's nonsense.

If Microsoft keep making dumb console names, I'll all for people making dumb abbreviations for them.

This. The people that get triggered so hard by this should seriously rethink what is happening with them.
