Not Newbies but ‘N00bs’
Well, I try to be hip and groovy and up with all the lingo and what happens??????
My ‘grammer phobia” takes over (after having it belted into me by the nuns in my youth) and hip and groovy turns into daggy and ‘try hard’.
So, now that I have been educated by my gamer auricle……………..”N00b” means that (to quote him), “You’re shit at gaming or computers” or you can (I’m told) apply it to a whole range of other life skills, for example:
- you can be n00b at washing
- you can be n00b at kissing
- you can be n00b at being ‘hip and groovy’ etc. etc.
You can have ‘n00b’ taste in clothes, ‘noob’ hair or ‘n00b’ ideas…………………
I learned something else too……………..
“I pwn n00bs with my uber micro”………….if you know what that means you’ll know it’s accurate……………..if you don’t know what it means “neh, neh, neh”
And in my newly acquired “leet speak”……………

I am not quite sure if i should take that last line as a compliment or an insult. I mean come on i have been on two shows of yours so ill have to take it as a compliment. Althought it reads as an insult “if you can read this you are leet” but i dont count? Why because i have a blog post denouncing leet speak? Or is it something i said on my show or your show? How can it be the dead serious show is causing me grief ahh molly. Why must we fight cant we all learn to get along? And if not? *enable l33t speak *y0u kn0w | w|11 w|n*disable*
