Gaming/Internet slang that you really hate or don't understand.

[Xiorell]

pwn, noobtube, sauce, moar. idk what else

what the fuck is Sauce meant to mean? And just what IS noobtube anyway?

 

[PissOffRoth]

Substituting letters like 'u' and 'r' for words like 'you' and 'are'.
Using 'teh' intentionally instead of 'the' is probably the most annoying... Seriously, it's a typo. Just like 'pwn'. It's stupid.
Using 'lol' multiple times in one sentence.
Horrid misspellings of relatively easy words. Yes, the word 'friends' has an 'i' in it... idiot.

 

[Xiorell]

This doesn't exactly fit, but at this point in the discussion everything else I would say has been said:

What is the deal with teabagging? I just don't understand it; if I'm going to desecrate a corpse in a video game I'd prefer to shoot the thing across a room, outside, and off a cliff if the physics will allow it. Second best option is something like the crossbow in half-life 2 that nails people to the wall right where you killed them: satisfaction and a warning to everyone that walks by.

I do agree. Unless they start making propper, balls out animations for it, it looks stupid.
And then I shall only be pleased if they also allow animations of balls getting blown off by the guy running up behind them who they didn't see.

i get abreviations like WTF and LOL but why the fuck do people use "teh" instead of "the" same amount of letter it just makes you come of as a trendy prick.

 

[Outright Villainy]

I don't hate all memes; I'd say fail, and I quite like appending "sauce" to any adjective to make it into a better noun, but people who say "Pwn" or "Fag" unironically are lamesauce.

Why have people started doing backwards emotes?

Like ?

That's not how you do smiley face damnit!

It's , alright!?

Unless it's D:
I'll make an exception for that, but only that.

All this crap with people on facebook saying "inbox me" is it possible that you mean "send me a private message" shouldn't you start the chain yourself!

 

[Xiorell]

I think Noobtube is internet lingo for "Grenade launcher"(Atleast in MW2)

As in... you're a "n00b" for using one? If so I don't see why using one makes you so, if you use it well?

Or do they mean they are good for killing "n00bs"? Because surely the same could be said of all MW2 weapons? like... I dunno, "noobshiv ftw", I should imagine.

Then again I don't really play the game so it matters not.

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

most of it doesn't bug me at all, the only only thing that bugs me is when ghetto ass fuckin douchers use the stupid "$o W3 R G10n 2wo DA MALL PCKZ UP D3m Ch1Ckzzzz!#@!$%"

that is the most annoying thing on fucking earth. i wanna reach through the screen and punch every ghetto person when they do that.

...What?

OT:I honeslt hate "U" for you, Most of all the hate "Mad Skillz" only one grammar mistake and it REALLY get on my nerves.

you must be very fortunate to not have any ghetto people around you or online...

but some that i know or are in my area...good god i dont know where they learned how to type, but thats honestly how they talk all the time, in what i said in parentheses, its the most annoying thing on earth seeing that shit, and 90% of the time they dont even use proper grammar and leave out words like "the" and "at" so it becomes one messed up puzzle to solve

 

[McMarbles]

How about all of it?

This As an English major, I find it REALLY offensive.

 

[Extraintrovert]

The term "grammar nazi" and all usages of it make me obscenely angry. How in the name of [insert obscure thing here] did wanting speech and writing to be comprehensible and understandible suddenly become comparable to the most murderous regime in human history? I don't think even Godwin's Law can explain this.

 

[MagicBucket]

pwn, noobtube, sauce, moar. idk what else

what the fuck is Sauce meant to mean? And just what IS noobtube anyway?

I think Sause is to describe something awesome. I think Noobtube is internet lingo for "Grenade launcher"(Atleast in MW2)

Sauce could be something awesome, if it's stuck on some other word, but according to my understanding, "sauce" is the chan form for "source"

This due to me seeing people on 4chan posting pics and saying "anyone got sauce?"

 

[astrav1]

What does it mean?

seriously? tilt your head anti-clockwise approximatly 90 degrees and look at the colon which is followed by the capitilised "p", which i have demonstrated below



you may notice it looks very vaguely like a face. the two dots which make up the colon represent eyes, the capitalised "p" represents a cheeky grin with a tongue sticking out.

now, what you don't do is overthink the concept from there. don't look in the mirror and try to get your tongue and smile to look like that. because it looks retarded. its not even immitating a real human face, its almost cartoony. damn does that annoy me, why do people do this... and you're right, what does it mean? when people use it against me are they trying to suggest something devious or are they patronising me because i get worked up too easy over the concept of a p following a colon. weird isn't it?

Got it thanks. Also that is a kickass avatar.

 

[Cyanin]

I to this day don't know what (Y) means when put at the end of a sentence..

(Y) is a thumbs up. That's the code for it on MSN.

Bless you sir..

Um...

...sorry?

 

[ShrooM_DoughKiD]

when WoW players use "gz" as short for Congratulations

In WHAT way does gz resemble Congratulations

From what I can remember from my pre-WoTLK days. It went like this;
Congratulations - Congrats - Gratz - GZ.

 

[ShrooM_DoughKiD]

I have no idea what people mean by /b/ or whatever it is.

Internet rules 1 and 2 [http://assets.knowyourmeme.com/i/3310/original/rules_of_the_internet.jpg]...

OT: I've been on the internet long enough to understand just about all of the slang but I never understood the proper use of the phrase "TITs or GTFO"...

Its pretty self explanatory.. show your tits, or get the fuck out of the thread/forum/website.

Haha, thankyou, it was a fun post to write, especially as i realised through it at how right you were, that it didn't actually mean anything.
Thanks again, i love awesome center. i prefer this facial expression to the much more appraised "0" face.
