I'm embarassed to ask how I am supposed to pronounce "groyper."

[–] PuddleOfKittens@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"groy" rhymes with "Troy" (or boy or joy) and the "per" is pronounced as a p then an "er" as in "trigger" or "banner".

So, a groyper is like one who groyps.

What a weird word but this helped. Thank you.

A weird word to describe incredibly weird and cringey people. Seems about right.

If when you say it you feel like you've just sexually assaulted a nearby woman, then you have pronounced it correctly. Sort of a cross between "hype" and "grope".
