::: spoiler Tap for spoiler Anubis (A New Bus) :::
Now I wonder if I pronounce bus or Anubis incorrectly.
No, it's not you, the joke just doesn't work.
"Anubis" is the Greek version of his name, so it's probably pronounced something like AH-noo-beece, with the emphasis on the first syllable.
So bus is really pronounced beece. Thank you.
One bus, multiple beece?
Nah, it's just not a great pun.
