For instance, take the two words “footlong” and “meatball”. Make up your mind that you will say both phrases, but leave it unsettled which you will say first. Now open your mouth and speak. If your thoughts incline ever so little towards “footlong”, you will say “footlong meatball”; if they turn, by even a hair’s breadth, towards “meatball”, you will say “meatball footlong”; but if you have the rarest of gifts, a perfectly balanced mind (as all things should be), you will say “Football meatlong”. - Lewis Carroll

You don’t even need humans doing the travel. You just send a 10 kg rock on a one-way trip back and get all the same effects.

Lmao, idk why anyone would claim that either. Re: the other part, I also don’t think there’s any inherent reason the “f”, but in my sleepy haze writing this last night I wasn’t able to think of an example with the soft “g” followed by “if”. I feel like it must exist but I’m too tired to find it.
Nice gimmick. Counterpoint: this GIF of some giggly git giving a gilt gizzard and a large haggis to a giddy girl named Gidget. (GIF omitted because I made it tf up). Incidentally, not a single one of your examples included “gi” followed by “f”.
Incidentally, I pronounce it “jif”, I just think appealing to English as if it had actual rules is insane.
