    Default Microsoft teaches parents 1337 speak

    http://www.microsoft.com/athome/secu...n/kidtalk.mspx

    I just want to know. How did they got their 5x1llz 1|\| I337 5p34x?

    I also find funny how "pwn" is related to illegal activity.

    I used to just think of it as some sort of awesomeness. Nothing in particular. Just awesomeness.

    Right. I wasn't aware it had any real meaning myself.

    Finally, they have done something at least mildly helpful that won't backfire on them. Oshit.

    Funny, I too thought that w00t was derived from "Whoo!"

    If you really want to be evil, Slick William, you can put that like this:
    (some object, always pr0n) |^0><><0|^z /\/\y |30><0|^5
    Well, I did what I could. I don't know z or y...

    I know I know, I could have done my phrase the true leet way, but I didn't wanna clutter up the awesomeness of it with that crap.

    But seriously, MS should put the phrase "roxxors my boxors" on that site in some version of leet speak. I'd love to see the definition they give it
