  Pwn should be a few steps back

  • somethingsnappy@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Pwn, pwned was so specific to gaming it shouldn’t even be on the list.

    source

    • fushuan@lemm.ee ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      And pog is specific to twitch in the gaming sphere, so the same logic would apply.

    I’m old enough to experience slang which isn’t native to my generation. But let me just say, this current generations slang is the shittest in a long time.

    Previous gen slang (fam, lit, yeet) was a 6/10

    Current gen slang (frfr, no cap, rizz) is 2/10

    Next gen has such a low bar to beat, it’ll be hard for them to fuck this up.

  Hemlo, inventor of PWN here.

  It was a misspelling of “Owned” in a Warcraft 2 map that I made. People thought it was funny that it upset me when I noticed the typo and perpetuated the map version with the misspelling.

  “Player 1 was pwned.”

  For more Internet history facts, stay tuned.

  As a millenial, yeet is still the greatest new word ever added, and why I personally will never be against the new generations choice of words. Fuckin Rizz is starting to appeal to me too

  source

  • RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Yeet and yoink are perfection.

    source

    • Kedly@lemm.ee ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Especially with how you pronounce yeet, I cannot think of another English word that is as fun to say

      source
  • KammicRelief@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    My problem is, right about when a word starts to appeal to me and I’m like “oookayy I’ll start saying it,” it’s way too late.

    I guess I could balance it by always appending a Dude-like “…in the parlance of our times…”

    source

    • Decoy321@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      That’s the thing. Once it starts appealing to you, it loses value to the original group.

      It’s one of my favorite ways to fuck with my nephews and nieces.

      I mean its just a shortened form of Charisma. Cha sounds weird, and Risma sounds like the set up for a “MUH BAWLZ” Joke
