Ok....

Not sure i quite get this. what the hell is with the "Teh" every time somone says "You suck at teh life"?

What is this pwnt/pwned for owned?.....

and finally, WTF is W00T?????????????????????

you forum people are killin me.

teh = making fun of the origins of the internet with people accidently typing it

"suck at teh life" = even further making fun of grammar mistakes

and owned, turned into since I'm sure years ago, it was a common mistake to type a P instead of O. and then pwnt is just stretching it further.

That is the dumbest **** I've ever heard...why do people do that ****...why not just write it out? I swear need my super-dooper-decoder-ring to decipher all this crap.

How about those fancy glasses from National Treasure will that work, come on english.

On a super-serious note, we are actually studying forums/blogs in a masters level marketing class. You would be shocked to know that very large companies are studying blog language and actually have people reading blogs and forums everyday to see what people are saying. In many cases, they are actually adding to the blog traffic.

Forums have developed their own jargon whether you like it or not.

I dunno... i think it is all lost on me...

And hey, DannyB, SAME TO YOUR MOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is one for ya! (j^66^xpt---niner.

Most of this started from Gaming, via a game called Ultima Online as well as a game called Quake 3.
