I mean if you can get our pinky under the flap “slicing” it open isn’t all that hard.

Yes, I’m afraid there’s a very distinct difference between the vowel sounds in “ick” and “eek” to the ear of a native English-speaker.

Does that pronounce any different to the “SKIPpy-oh” Campbell used to describe it at the annotation?

I ask because English is my second language and these slight sound differences are my goddamn curse. I can’t tell the difference between Sheet and Shit, for example. It’s really frustrating. lol

So were’re just going to gloss over Scipio just… slicing open that letter with his pinky?

On the name bit, I always just mentally said “SIH-pee-oh” as was said above; however, even with that metal pronunciation, I had no problem getting the pun names in the earlier strip. Weird how the brain works.
