    it's no less realistic than "omgit'sfromaWarcraftmap." HI, YOU CAN'T GIVE SOMEBODY CREDIT FOR COINING A TYPO BECAUSE... LOOK, THE O AND P KEYS ARE RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER... IT'S A FRICKEN TYPO.

    I think "Pwned" is a typo of "Owned" that mange to stick and "pr0n" was invented to bypass early word filters. Also stuck around.

    Feck arf. Google has never heard of it and neither have I - 52 keystrokes per second, my arse.

    I think most credence lies, obviously, with a common typo that got adopted by gamers.

    Altho' the origin I find most compelling is the esoteric account of the 19th century Prague Working Nympho group that charged half as much as their whore contemporaries and eventually gave their services away. They were so energetic and robust in their lovemaking that 3 out of 4 married businessmen that spent the night with them died of heart failure by the morn.

    Pwned.
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -
