-y? -ie? Or shall we call the whole thing off?
So which is it? “Hoody”? Or “hoodie”? I could maybe if kicked marshal a half-baked argument either way. (Is it better to be wholly baked or not baked at all?) Google (what a wonderful spell-checker it is) shows us popular sentiment leans toward hoodie, which makes me partial to hoody for no other reason than maintaining my contrarian cred. Is there a specious argument I’m missing that would authoritatively tip the scales?
I do have my reasons for asking, but they are dull and meager, not worth sharing with the class. —Miss Kittin wants to know how you can call yourself a DJ if you don’t shake your ass in the crowd, and that’s as good a non sequitur as any with which to get back to work.

I may be the only one, but I read that as huudee, not hood-y. Hoody-hoo!! is the first thing I thought of, though I can't imagine anybody but Dave Meikis and Jon Miller will remember that one.
You know, I should acquaint myself with better-known people, just to improve my name-dropping if nothing else.
Wish I could remember the name of that comic strip, though.
Non-sequitur enough for you?
Back to work.
it freakin' costs $118!!! you can call it whateverthefuck you want to.
Um, kirsten? That's just an example, by way of Juicy Couture, for which stupid people pay far too much. (Some are made of cashmere, which, well.)
Trust me. You can find a hoody, or hoodie, for $10. Honest. Probably scam one for free off a radio station giveaway or suchlike, you put a little work into it.
oh. heh. ok. *phew*
i was horrified cuz it's more than what i make in a day and a half of work.
