Gisnep

Is this a thing I'm not aware of, or just a very strange typo?

[–] [email protected] 51 points 6 months ago (4 children)

Clearly says Walt Gisnep.

I'll give you the p, but in which world is that a G?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago (3 children)

it's mirrored

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Oh, because things are not the things that they are.

Why not Malt?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

Malt Disney, the good version of Walt.

Dyslexia

Still looks more like a G than a D to me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Ain't nothin' but a G thang

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

That makes no sense. Why would it be read mirrored?

ωal⅂ Әisnep

... or perhaps ⧢al7?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Lol i was one minute slower than you

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

That 'y' has pissed me off since i was a child. I was always baffled as to why it was spelt Disnep but pronounced Disney, especially while learning digraphs at school and it didnt fit in with any of the sounds the letter combinations were supposed to make.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 months ago

Well, that's what their logo says, I don't know what to tell you

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Funny, i know the answer because i just recently ran into that meme. Simple meme about how Walt Disney's trademark signature looks like "Gisnep", . I get the "p" part, and i guess the "D" does looks like a backwards "G".

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Thank you, I knew I must have been missing something. I can see the P, but the G makes no sense to me. Walp Disnep.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

This is how I write my gs, if that helps

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Same here when writing cursive, but Walt's D still doesn't look anything like that to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

It’s pretty similar to a hasty cursive g

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'd wager they meant Walt Disney.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Indeed, but it was spelled that way deliberately.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

I see it now! Thanks for the nudge.
