[Callisto Star]

Ja, dette har jeg òg hørt en god del ganger. Det er morsomt hvordan trender sprer seg. Jeg husker det første gang fra Pure Pwnage, med selveste Jeremy som svarer the pwnerer, men har dette et annet opphav?

Det betyr vel "hallo" på japansk.

 

Hehe, det var ikke helt dette jeg lurte på Jeg er da klar over betydningen, men jeg er ute etter hvor trenden kom fra. Enten den sakte men sikkert steg frem fra Pure Pwnage, eller om det har vært på moten lenge.

Jeg hørte det første gang fra Finch i American Pie
