Leet Speak confuses me. You get all the stuff like fux0r and hax0r but how's it supposed to be pronounced? Is it fucksor and hacksor or fuckser and hackser or is the x just replacing ck so they're just pronounced like fucker and hacker. but if that's how it works then why do you say fux0r j00? That would be pronounced fucker you. And for that matter, how do you prnounce j00? Is it jew? Or joo? Or you? Or hoo? or koo or doo or chew or whateverthefuckyouwanttocallitbecasueican'tunderstandanyofit?BTW, the farmers have cut off all the petrol supplies in Britain. Posted by kuru on Sep. 11 2000,18:22
leet speak is pronounced?!all this time, i've just been READING it. quick, someone get me a shot of whiskey and a hot towel. ------------------ Posted by Tsupa on Sep. 11 2000,18:40
leet speak is rather outdated... it was originally used in a very exclusive hacker community, but then a bunch of lamers found out what it was and started using it almost exclusivly... now, leet speak is rarely used by true hackers, and most of the junk like fux0rs and hax0rs was never even used ... that's just new crap that people made up cause they thought it was cool... long live the true hackers (no, i'm not one of them, just a fan )the last instance i can remember of hackers using leet speak was when they took over the NY times webpage and put up all kinds of "Free Kevin" banners... and then they only used leet speak in the code, not actually on the page itself... anyone else remember that ?

It's funny as hell to tell a person 'fux0r j00' or something similar; they give you these odd looks.It's even more interesting to write a note to someone using 13375p34k; they think you've flipped. ------------------ Posted by Bozeman on Sep. 11 2000,23:39
Especially handwritten.

Petrol? I don't understand, j/k. I think "leetspeak" is pronounced however you want it to be.
