1337-speak normalized... and what the leet are going to have to do to keep up.

One day, I'm going to log onto a quake server and see this:

EliteFellow: Ah-ha! My aiming skills are unmatched. I have such prowess it is as though I own you.

TricksterMan: Not so! Network latency has inhibited my natural reflexes!

EliteFellow: You deserved your comeuppance, you have been jealously guarding the Quadruple Damage for some time now without moving elsewhere!


I would be delighted...

reminds me of dialect from a badly dubbed vintage 1970's kung-fu movie.

Give it a year or two, eventually you'll see another pairing of Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan playing Ninja Hackers. It will probably even be in IMAX format.

Oh gods....! That's great :D Now if only such things didn't take so long to type.

... Just dropping by. Don't know why. Now vindicated. ^.^

(On a side note, this is probably part of why I don't feel the need to wade thru /. ... Someone else will do it for me. heh heh.)
