How do you pronounce Blink-182? It's tearing Twitter apart.

If you were a kid of the early '00s, you would've listened to Blink-182's hits just about everywhere. But importantly, have you been saying their name right?

We specifically mean the "182" bit in the band's name, which, as per a conversation over Twitter, could be "one-eighty-two" or "one-eight-two."

The observation was brought up by The Late Late Show writer Ian Karmel, who said the British pronounce it, weirdly enough, "one-eight-two."

In America, it's "one-eighty-two."

 The Late Late Show host James Corden weighed in with, heaven forbid, "one hundred and eighty two."

The debate got heated.

Original Blink-182 vocalist Tom DeLonge had his say. And well, it gets even murkier.

If this is all confusing, maybe we should be listening to the band's bassist Mark Hoppus, who said we should be focusing our attention on a far more important issue.
