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.
and w00T is....just sound it out. Its a form of excitement. Like woop, except...not...ha
trust me, there are worse internet evolutions. Just the other day, I saw someone type b7...guess what it means??

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.
