when visiting my dutch family I noticed how faster "vay vay vay" is, so I started thinking vévévé in french instead of "double v" x3 (btw this is a double u : uu) I've said it out loud a few times by accident and people don't question it. I think we all agree it's a bit silly to pronounce.
...
I have an intense and fascinating life.

That's why it's pronounced dub-dub-dub.
I don't trust websites that still start with www.
Why not? (Serious question, I'm a DNS engineer so this is super relevant to me)

Say "dubdubdub" or "dubbadubdub". "winwinwin" would also be acceptable.
When is it necessary to say www?
When they set the site up poopy
Usually happens in the reverse though, so it’s necessary to say it when you need to verbally communicate:
“Hey your site works when I visit example.com but www.example.com never loads”

Even faster to say Net
Anyone else not realize the swirls were part of a watermark and just think that was supposed to be part of his haircut?
true story. Just as many syllables as 1 W.
To play devil's advocate, yes, "w" is technically three syllables in English, but they're easy enough to blur together. Meanwhile, the actual "w" sound is comparatively labor intensive, and "-orld" even more so. We're in purple burglar alarm world.

In spanish we use, "three W" as WWW xD
Tridub
I think we should sit down and take the shortest syllable version of each word/expression from each language and combine them all into one fast language.
