Does she say he got skeptically pooned?
Rebecca I agree that was out loud funny
that’s “pwned.”
And it was funny, but, clicking on play, I was expecting to see the real John Edward get jock-rocked. This was good, and funny, but that would have been great, and awesome.
This reminds me of an old saying about TV that I shall paraphrase for my own nefarious means:
“Psychics are called Mediums because they are neither rare, nor well done.”
skeptical pwnage is the best kind.
Ha, ha! That was great.
@Hanes: Yes, it would have been better if the real John Edwards was the recipient, but this will do for now.
That was funny, even if I dislike the “poon” pronounciation of “pwn”. [rant about pronounciation of internet abbrevs and deliberate misspellings repressed] I think it should be pronounced “own”.
Now to youtube to give credit where credit’s due.
That was great, I especially loved the trouble the pwner had keeping up with the camera cuts.
Bjornar: I personally prefer “pown”, just own with a p in front. I guess with some accents that might come out “poon”. My trouble with pronouncing it “own” is that it doesn’t distinguish between own and pwn.
I am not from the internet generation (I was born near the baby-boom /generation-X boundary), so I don’t know anything about getting “pwned”. I would just say “That psychic huckster guy Jonathan got kicked in the nuts” :-):-).
BTW, when I first saw Rebecca’s post, I thought it was going to be about the former presidential candidate John Edwards getting lampooned or blasted.
BCT
Hanes: Yes, I thought about both spellings, but settled on the least amount of letters. Besides, I’ve never been a fan of silent letters.
Billy Clyde: Yes, I have had to make the Edward/Edwards distinction several times.

@Epicurious: LOLOLOLOLOLOL
@James K: I don’t want to differentiate between pwn and own in speech, I think that should be left to the realm of text. I also throw large rocks at people using LOL and ROTFL in speech. :)
If you’re actually LOL or ROTFL I will see and hear it, and if you aren’t and just say “lawl” you’re an idiot.
My skeptic nuts are tingling (kinda like a spiderman sense, but more — well, visceral)
I can’t wait till the OED puts “Pwned” and “N00B” into teh dictionary. Oh, and “teh”. I beleive the etymology (that’s word, not bugs, right?) of “pwned” is that it is a misspelling of “owned” . See? Knowledge is power!
Reminds me of “Prophesize who has beaten you”.
I have a hoodie with “Philosophy: Modus Pwning since 399 BCE” on the back. So I’m a fan of the “pwn” etymology.
@Bjornar: I say “LOL” on *accident* all the time, and when I do, I crack the fuck up, and then I laugh even more because I’m loling in real life for real and…yeah. I’m easily amused.
