Love them or hate them, they are here for now.
Brand name notwithstanding, this is "who they are"
I don't give a crap who makes them, I don't like them.
You got a problem with that? it's not like I'm taking yours away......

sooner or later we all become our parents atmo.
You are a funny guy.
eh...
I used to use that word once in a while, but sometimes people would say "what's a b______?" and I'd have to explain it, and tell them who Sheldon Brown was, and all of that. It got tiring. Now I just say shifter, or ergolever, or STI lever.
Still haven' mastered simultaneous s-h-a-k-e-s?
My name is Lucas, pleased to meet you:

That word belongs with skurfing and frolf in the dustbin of stupid sports terminology.
naughty wordnaughty wordnaughty wordnaughty wordnaughty wordnaughty wordnaughty word. Just had to do it.
If a company called them b_______ in their literature I'd be more inclined to call them that, but they don't. Why make up a word when there are perfectly suitable words everyone already understands?
Nobody has ever been confused by my calling them "shifters".
hey! so what's the deal with brunch, i mean that if it's a combination of breakfast and lunch.
how comes there's no lupper or no linner? going forward the parts shall be called shevers atmo.
Shants.
I'd argue the dustbin's got some extra room.

In my world, the last checklist item before applying take-off power is to identify the assigned runway by calling out "Assigned Runway". This has on occasion been shortened to "Assway". It is wildly inappropriate and would never happen in my airplane. Wink wink, nod nod.
Maybe a better word than b r i f t e r would be Shrakever. It just rolls off the tongue so much more smoothly.
Me too. Shifter? Oh! You mean the thing that makes the derailleur move regardless of where it's mounted.
Brunch is acceptable because it provides a reasonable excuse to drink before lunch. Drinking at breakfast is tacky, drinking at brunch is refined. No need for a made up meal to justify drinking after noon.
