I see this all over the place, and it's been driving the writer in me nuts. So, my good EMC fellows, let's be clear: Pique - to excite or stimulate. When you hear someone say "this piques my interest" or "you have piqued my curiosity," this is the word they're using. Peak - a high point or apex. If someone's interest has "peaked," this implies they are as interested in the subject as they're going to get, and it's all downhill from there. Peek - a quick glance; to look at. Your interest cannot be "peeked," though someone might peek over your shoulder to see what's so interesting. Thank you and good day. /mic drop
(Gerard) Piqué - Spanish soccer player who plays for FC Barcelona. Played for Spain in the Euros and got eliminated by Italy in the round of 16. Final score was Italy 2 - 0 Spain. (I'm sorry, but I had to do this )
Why you gotta drop a 300$ mic like that? Also this has been the peak of my conversations all day. Thanks for piquing my interest with this thread, although I already knew this since it's common sense and most people learn this type of stuff studying in the 4th grade. It was nice to take a peek in here and see the struggles that I go through when chatting with lower intelligent life forms on other online communities.
It was actually just a Chinese $0.80 microphone he found on Ebay. XHaro_Der enlightened me on these beasts a little while ago...
Nah, it was more like $15 headset that happens to have a mic attached. Maybe you can return the favor and enlighten Haro on this thread? *runs away making Zoidberg noises*
