I wonder if people who spelled it as, "sike", apply the spelling to related words.
Sikeology or sikeiatrist or sikeotic
People who spell it "sike" probably aren't intelligent enough to attempt to use those other words.
I'm pretty sure "sike" is how it was often spelled in the 80s and 90s. So maybe they're just "old."
Wait is that how you spell "sike"? I always assumed it was "psych", like being psyched out.
Looks like this specific meaning of psych can be spelt sike - but not other definitions!
Tbh I'd never heard of this meaning in either spelling.
Nifty! Thanks.
"Psych" is the original spelling, but so many kids didn't know that that "sike" became common.
It's definitely psych. Sike is for people who also write should of.
All of the sudden
In the meme-verse, I feel like "sike" is much more common (eg, "say sike right now")
While "psych" is technically correct, the worst kind of correct, my preference would be to spell it "syke." "Psych" and "sike" just don't have enough meme energy to them and could be more easily misinterpreted as meaning something else.
Looks like ya technically correct. I hate that there's little to no official literature on this, looking anything credible up is a pain.
