Seriously, it's garbage baby speak. If you are an adult you can say comfortable.

 

[Dai101]

Comfy.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Im mad comfy right now.

 

[foxtrot3d]

Seriously, it's garbage baby speak. If you are an adult you can say comfortable.

If you're an adult you wouldn't be making threads on GAF something, something...

Anyway, comfy is totally different than comfortable.

 

[Killer Queen]

Why is this something to complain about.

 

[Hypron]

I'll agree with you OP. Don't like how that "word" sounds.

 

[BHK3]

this is not a comfy thread at all

also, you got something against babies OP? You hate babies or something bro?

 

[Vice]

Someone said/wrote it and it caught on. Same as every other word.

 

[TimeEffect]

I totes agree

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

Seriously, it's garbage baby speak. If you are an adult you can say comfortable.

Because not everything needs to be formal?

How did French, Spanish, Italian, Romanian, Portuguese become acceptable languages. They are just bad versions of vulgar Latin. Jesus Christ worry about real things.

 

[Laieon]

If you're an adult, you can also say comfy. Thanks linguistics!

 

[Hypemaster]

OP making me feel uncomfy right now.

 

[Reverend Funk]

goo goo gah gah
that's how you guys sound right now

 

[Laieon]

goo goo gah gah
that's how you guys sound right now

If you're an adult you can capitalize the first letter of the first word in sentences.

Chillax man

 

[Trouble]

What else grinds your gears, OP? Let it all out.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

So this guy goes to buy a bull for his farm and he only has $1000. He finds the perfect bull for his farm but its $999. So he buys it but needs someone to come pick him and the bull up. He phones the operator and the operator says its going to cost him $1 per word. He calls his friend. What word does he say?

 

[PirateKing]

Lol OP you're getting old. It's just a word

 

[liliththepale]

"Comfortable" is a cold and rigid word, which does not well fit the experience it purportedly describes. Comfy works so much better.

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

Chillax man

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

It's always been acceptable brah.

 

[dity]

Comfortable isn't very comfy to say.

 

[Speely]

"Comfy" is more comforting than "comfortable."

 

[GavinGT]

It's half as many syllables and a lot more casual than saying the full word. Especially if you're one of those monsters who doesn't shorten it to "comf-ter-ble".

 

[Moonkid]

"Comfortable" is a cold and rigid word, which does not well fit the experience it purportedly describes. Comfy works so much better.

Sums it up pretty well OP. Comfy sounds like what it describes and evokes a more pleasant feeling.

 

[itwasTuesday]

I don't think this argument would up in a courtroom sir. Maybe a baby courtroom.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Comferme

Close. But its comfortable.

 

[StoopKid]

 

[Reverend Funk]

I need to go calm down.

 

[Madness]

Pretty much the same way other contractions and other phrases get adopted. It's less formal and easier to say/spell.

 

[Smokey]

I've never heard anybody use the word "comfy" in RL.

I only hear/see it when certain folks like to try and explain why their certain console is better than a Personal Computer.

 

[Speely]

I need to go calm down.

Maybe find your comfy zone.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Damn it. Mine would have worked too!

Comferme is a word? Well I'll be..

 

[Dead Man]

Seriously? Of all the abbreviated words in vernacular English, that's the one that gives you the shits?

"Comfortable" is a cold and rigid word, which does not well fit the experience it purportedly describes. Comfy works so much better.

Indeed.

 

[Hazmat]

I need to go calm down.

You salty about how comfy I am?

 

[Dug]

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

I need to go calm down.

Bullshit

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

I hate the spelling of comfortable. Every non-snob pronounces it comftrable. When did the R and the T switch places and why is the O in the middle silent?

 

[itwasTuesday]

Comfy is physical
Comfortable can be emotional

Comfy on the couch?
Are you comfortable loaning me $500 dollars?

[Frecklestein]

when I cum on my wifey I call it cumfy

 

[DJ_Lae]

I don't use comfy an awful lot, but I can understand why people do - comfortable is an uncomfortable word to say.

 

[Ban Puncher]

Comfy Cringe

 

[daveo42]

They liked how it felt.

 

[MC Safety]

It's like how no one can be assed to say vegetable.

 

[Haly]

What is "baby speak"? "Speak" isn't a noun.

If you insist on being a pedant, you should've said:

"Comfy" is grammatically inappropriate and reflects poorly on one's diction.

 

[platakul]

Seriously, it's garbage baby speak. If you are an adult you can say comfortable.

cause it makes me moist fo

 

[platakul]

sick double post

 

[Disgraced]

It's more casual than comfortable.

Would you call comfy the cajj version?

Preach!
