In all seriousness, this proves that old people can be entertaining. I found the concepts that l33t was 'designed' and that its purpose is to 'keep parents in the dark' entertaining.
Huzzah for fearmongering! Everybody should be like ol' Mrs Gerrad (however you spell it), and constantly lean over their kids shoulder, and name them 'Niles'. And buy them a Mac.
Urgh.

Remember kids, if you go on the internet, YOU WILL GET RAPED.
(mentally, at least.)

oh noez. or something

haha, that's funny. It's kinda true though, I have friends who ask me to check their kids myspace accounts because they "can't read that teen writing"

and then there is my husband who is so old that when I said something on my blog about "teh uber badness" he left a comment about how I had a typo. :rolleyes: :D

it's fun being married to a grown up.

gypo?

Sure, they can try and learn leetspeak, but we'll just make up a new and even more dangerous code.

The first part is true. The second isn't however - l33t was designed to circumvent the filters on bulletin boards ;)

this reminded me somewhat of this (http://www.adequacy.org/stories/2001.12.2.42056.2147.html).

A classic I might add. Some of the best satire I've ever read (in print, or on the internet).

Nope. It predates bulletin boards by years.

It was designed to keep people in the dark. Though more accurately it was originally intend to avoid spiders that checked for keywords.

I wont argue that the initial part of l33t was designed, sort of. But most of what you see now just sort of evolved.

By the way...does anybody know what NIFOC and GYPO are? I've never seen 'em O_o

Gypo is unknown to me, but nifoc I believe is "naked in front of computer"

Yep, we'll have to make an English version of the stupendously clever French 'verlain' (backwards language). That'll teach 'em!

Urmm that's a bit less subtle than their version of it.

They're like "ah, oui, c'est chébran" rather than "éhcnarb tse'c, iuo, ha", which is obvious and lame.

Regardless of l33t's origins, I think we can all agree on one thing - it's retarded.

Wtf is NIFOC and GYPO? Nobody uses that...nobody uses p911 or any of that crap. lol is NOT laugh out loud, it's lol

Translators? wtf...

Those reporters are n00bs... Yeah I know I was saying A: No one uses those and B: 99% of what they showed wasn't really 1337

Besides, only 12 year old noobs use leet anyway.

You'd have to be a pretty bad parent to not notice your child being naked in front of the computer untill you read it over his/her shoulder in "code"

Maybe GYPO is like: Get your penis out? :D :D

That's what I found on urbandictionary.com

Anyone who can't read 1337speak doesn't deserve to know what their child is doing.

Most of that stuff isn't 1337. 1337 is this (Above sentence, translated into 1337)

Lemme put it this way: If GYPO is needed in an online conversation, you have bigger problems.


And...

Look at what the screen says there...

"Dude, I am going to hack your computer, MUHAHAHAHAH
Fear me!!! I own you!!! The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog! abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz!"

I get the distinct impression this was not written by a cracker.

I'm pretty sure the only people who use l33t anymore are bad internet comedians. The same ones who feel obliged to write "!!!!111one" just to point out that they're being, like, ironic.

wtf does having a Mac have anything to do with this?

Macs are the computer of choice for counterculture types. They also wear PF flyers, wear trenchcoats, and eventually shoot up the school.

That's not even l33t. That's just... acronyms.
