We need a dictionary to clarify some of the terms we use on here. For example, does "whoosh" mean the same thing as "pwnage?"

Can you say, "LOLZ Asher whooshed you" in same way you can say, "LOLZ Asher pwned you?"

To me whoosh is the sound that is made when something goes over your head unnoticed. Totally different then pwnage.

And "whoosh" is not exactly a Poly-only thing.

Correct.

Part of the joy of a board where everybody has been a member for at least seven or eight years is that you can have stupid in jokes and shorthand the flusters and annoys new people.

We don't want them new people, and we don't want them knowing what we say.

By the way, what DOES the "Z" in LOLZ mean anyway? And that goes for the "ZO" in ZOMFG.

[BeBMan]

The latter is Kraut = "Ze OMFG"

The "Z" is LOLZ indicates that the word's in plural. The same letter in ZOMG is a deliberate mistake portraying the poster hitting the left "shift" key blindly when typing "oh my ****ing god".
