Far away in the tropical waters of the Caribbean, two prawns were swimming around in the sea - one called Justin and the other called Christian. The prawns were constantly being harassed and threatened by sharks that patrolled the area.

Finally one day Justin said to Christian, "I'm bored and frustrated at being a prawn, I wish I was a shark, then I wouldn't have any worries about being eaten..."

As Justin had his mind firmly on becoming a predator, a mysterious cod appears and says, "Your wish is granted", and lo and behold, Justin turned into a shark.

Horrified, Christian immediately swam away, afraid of being eaten by his old mate.

Time went on and Justin found himself becoming bored and lonely as a shark. All his old mates simply swam away whenever he came close to them. Justin didn't realise that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad plight.

While out swimming alone one day he sees the mysterious cod again and can't believe his luck. Justin figured that the fish could change him back into a prawn. He begs the cod to change him back so, lo and behold,he is turned back into a prawn.

With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes, Justin swam back to his friends and bought them all a cocktail. Looking around the gathering at the reef, he searched for his old pal.

"Where's Christian?" he asked.

"He's at home, distraught that his best friend changed sides to the enemy and became a shark", came the reply.

Eager to put things right again and end the mutual pain and torture, he set off to Christian's house. As he opened the coral gate the memories came flooding back. He banged on the door and shouted, "It's me, Justin, your old friend, come out and see me again."

Christian replied "No way man, you'll eat me. You're a shark, the enemy and I'll not be tricked."

Justin cried back "No, I'm not. That was the old me. I've changed."




wait for it















"I've found Cod. I'm a prawn again Christian!" :whistling

The word "pwn" came from a computer game. It was a Japanese computer game and it was being translated into English...unfortunately the translator was some Japanese guy who couldn't speak English. When you beat someone in the game it was meant to say: "You own (opponent’s name)!"
But the guy translating made a typo and hit P instead of O.

Thus it would say "You pwn (opponent’s name)!"

Or at least that's what my brother tells me, he's a hardcore gamer so he should know.

It's a common mistype, there's no one determinable origin.

Depending on who you ask it's from war-craft, cs or something else.

Fecking mods :dry:

The actual story is that it comes from a Warcraft map but no-one ever seems to know which one. Etymologists in the future will probably just say it was a word that developed from the internet, that's good enough for me.

It's too easy to win so instead keep a count of the 'clean sheets' you keep. That is, when you don't score any points.

Add them up at the end of the game, if your total is less than the combined total of the other 3 computer players, then you've won. Otherwise you're a loser, baby.
