  • I think my head is going to explode...

    And I thought HS was bad enough... I didn't think it could get any worse... that was untill it set in... the epidemic... it spread like wildfire in a parched savanna, faster then a flash flood...

    You know what I'm talking about.

    Well mabye you don't, so I will explain with one word:

    N00bitus

    It is like my High School has been turned into a realistic version of WoW. The new thing? "ur mom". Allow me to recite a conversation I overheard today:

    Idiot 1: Hey dude, whats up?
    Idiot 2: Ur mom!
    Idiot 1: No ur mom!
    Idiot 2: Well you are a gay fag you faggoty faggot
    Idiot 1: rofl(yes, he actually pronounced this)
    Idiot 2: gsag(apparently this means "go suck a goat")

    It's not just a select group doing this. I mean over 80% of the school has caught on this new "trendy" thing. Jocks and cheerleaders included.

    It's not a question of if my head will explode, it's a question of when.

    So it's trendy in high school to sound like a complete tard while trying to pronounce even dumbed-down versions of l337sp33k? Wow, I may not wanna come back to the States if that's the case.

    Besides, tell them they're doing it wrong. Proper l337sp33k requires retardedly huge amounts of sub-titling. Or texting. It's optional which they choose.

      Needs more memes.

      If we don't like something, collectively, if our hatred for it throbs like an abscess beneath every thread, does that mean that they're doing something right?

        memes?

        And I'm not sure about texting, but if they are speaking it I am sure they are texting it in one way or another. I don't know what you mean by sub-titling though.

        EDIT: What I find really funny though, is that the class of '05's nickname for the principal was "The Goat". When I told the "trendy" folk this, they changed to "gsab"(go suck a bull...)

          Memes: an idea or thought that becomes common or permeates throught a community to the point that it becomes understood automatically when encountered by any of said community. On the internet, memes take many forms, and are most often humourous.

          Texting: that typing mess on cell phones.

          Sub Titles: those words that show up on the bottom of the screen sometimes when what the person on the screen is saying it in a language other than what the audience can unerstand. Sometimes shows up in foreign films (a lot in anime that's still uding the Japanese dub, and fans translated and sub titled it) and other forms.

          The joke is that when two people who speak l337sp33k meet and talk, they have to do so in sub-titles (or que cards, or texting), because they can't pronounce what they're trying to say, and it would be too complicated to do so any other way.

          I think those guys were better off with gsag, honestly. At least it'll help them out when it does come time to see the principal.

            I swear, I'd have more respect for someone that could actually have a conversation in subtitles.

              And if you can tell me where it's from, you go up an even farther level of it.

                      Another Example of a meme would be Leeroy Jenkins.

                      Leeroy Jenkins

                      It doesn't matter if you played World of Warcraft or not, if you're serious gamer on any kind of level, you've probably heard of him. His name has not only become a warcry in MMOs, he is also someone people warn you not to be.

                      And all of this because he was the guy that didn't listen to the raid planning in Ventrillo or wait for the leaders to make thier moves first, he just rushed into the raid area and got the whole alliance wiped. And then made a re-enactment of the whole thing and put it up on YouTube.

                      It became such a huge thing that they actually have a card for Leeroy Jenkins in the WoW Trading Card game.



                      Not even Alex Trebek can resist Leeroy Jenkins:

                        I can read it also, so I too am a monster geek. I didn't really use Leetspeak heavily until MegaTokyo started incorporating it into the strips via Largo.

                            I was hanging out with some friends and some friends-of-friends last year. And one of them -- a very un-hip seeming guy in his mid-20s -- actually said "dubbyou-tee-eff" in conversation. I was quite perplexed.

                            Thankfully, he's the only person I've met who tried to talk in real life as if he were in an AOL chat room.
