The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 when reading "pwned" and speaking it in my head... "poned" is usually how i say it... I wouldn't expect to see it copyrighted, though i await the 'clever' net surfer that proves me wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't expect to see it copyrighted, though i await the 'clever' net surfer that proves me wrong. I think of it like pawned but said really fast without much emphasis on the "a". C Dub shouldn't feel bad. There's a guy I know who's been working in silicon valley for years AND spends a ton of time on IRC and just realized that "teh" and "pwned" are not typos.

Guest Danny Dubya v 2.0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 Only here can a fucking typo be considered cool. Oh so sheltered are your virgin eyes! Typos are worshipped everywhere on the net. Even worse are the faux-elite snobs that bitch about the script kiddies that mistype to be cool. Someone should lock both parties in a chamber full of hallucinogenic gas that'll make 'em hit and strangle eachother, and pull in an eager audience of spectators to throw in cool weapons and garbage.
