Best word EVAR!!@#
The Intarweb has spawned an entirely new lexicon. Computer-specific words such as “online,” “reboot,” and “connected” are now part of our regular, non-technological conversations.
What’s better, though, are the completely ridiculous, truly geeky Intarweb words. Somehow, these odd words arise from the uncharted depths of IRC, MUDs, and the hax0r underground to permeate the more mainstream Intarweb community. This includes eleet (i.e. leet/3l33t/l33t/ereet/reet), 0WN (i.e. PWN), and re (i.e. rehi). (Hey, even Shakespeare can dig the l33t-speak; check out Chris Coutts’ hilarious take on Romeo & Juliet: Tales for the L33t.)
But the best word that the Intarweb junkies have come up with is EVAR. This one I love. It combines enthusiasm and sarcasm (unusual, that) and confuses n00bs as a bonus. I plan to use this more in everyday speech. EVAR r0×0rs. w00t!
