[–] ninjabard@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* In Texas it's Boo-wee. That was the man's name as is the knife that bears it. Outside of Texas people mispronounce it as Bow-ee like Ziggy Stardust. If you're talking about David (rest in power) Bowie, then it's Bow-ee. But the knife is Boo-wee. permalink fedilink source parent
