Pure Pwnage -

Why talk like this in real life, though? Doesn't it just scream to the world
"I've never been layed and I won't be layed for a very long time."? It's embarassing. There is a time and a place for the word "pwn" just as there is a time and a place for asking how much damage a huge Monster of Legend 18HD dragonne would do on a full attack after using its Pounce ability or debating the merits of the spell Mana Leak in Extended. Leave the geeky shit where it belongs, the table or the couch.

Does anyone know the etymology of the term "owned"? I know what it means, but where exactly did this silly term come from?

I think it's because if you 'own' someone (like slavery) it's a rather demeaning thing.

Yea, I guess thats a good discription.

Statikk, using some of those words in real life is fun from time to time. This Jerremy kid is taking it a bit far though, but he's just a tard that is never even going to get close to someone of the opposite sex

.
I use owned, pwned, lol (as it is actualy a word over here, otherwise I would never use it), ZOMG (I pronounce it as ZOMYGOT!) and ROFL (ROFFEL).
It's funny to use those terms in RL with friends who know what it means.

I have been known to use internet acronyms like IMO, OMG and ATM in real life without thinking. Then I generally feel stupid.

BTW, what does the 'Z' in ZOMG stand for?

***Wil*** · #35 06-10-2006, 07:36 AM

It stands for kewlness. You can't beat a good zed.

p.s. I generally spell it zOMG because it's not actually an initial.

Probably the leeties just mixing around z0r and omg.

Pwned and Zomg were created by 2 tards on some famous forum. They made typos, and well, it became famous. This shit happens all the time, the ORLY bird being a prime example.

O rly? ZOMG that owns!

Edit: Does this count as spam?

T-nex · #39 06-10-2006, 09:45 AM

Yes it is!! Warnz0rs!

lol... Nah dunno.... Zomg is just a pretty lame way of trying to sound cool.

I always read this when I need a cheap laugh.

Havoc · #43 06-18-2006, 09:33 AM

A cheap laugh? That page wants to make me kill myself O.o.

*clicks on link*

*reads for five seconds*

*gives up*

What worries me most of all is that someone actually spent a few hours of their life on that.
