    I love Bandwagon Boy. I wish he'd come back.

    'Pwned' is an internet gaming thing....when you thoroughly beat someone. Supposedly started as a typo and snowballed.
     
  2. I thought it stood for power-owned ... as in not just owned, but POWER-owned.

    Can we get a pronunciation?

    No. This is the internet. You just type.

    According to Bandwagon Boy's site, pwned means pawned and panwed. I think we need to give him the benefit of the doubt.

    POENED -- at least that's how I'd pronounce it if I ever said it aloud.

    Also, I didn't realize King James was named after a Chrysler.

    Wait, so that's like "pained" just like House Minority Leader John Boehner is "bay-ner"?

    Or is it like owned, but with a P in front? This matters a whole hell of a lot.

    It's the latter. I used POE because I figured everyone would think of Edgar Allan.

    Hmmm, I met this girl and she was hot. I took her home and she got boned. She was good, and I got hooked. It was so good, that now I'm pwned! Word.
