when i see 10 year olds who have never played any sort of game where the term would need be used calling people noobs, it does kind of make me want to slap them. this includes noob, nub, nubling, nublet, nooblet etc

Ayup, along with a lot of other words like "gtfo", "rofl", "lol", and variations of the n-word.... Seriously, am I the only person who finds it really annoying when kids call each other (trying to avoid being modded here, so bear with me) the n-word but start with "nag", "nyuk", or "noog"? I mean, how stupid can you get....

Fail is worse I think. I started going to high school last year, and all of the sudden every damn person is repeating the word "fail" endlessly. You drop a pencil, "Fail" someone drones. You trip over a desk. "Epic failure." chimes some guy in a monotone voice. It's gotten so bad that I want to strangle a kitten every time some jackass takes it upon himself to devalue what is otherwise a integal part of the English language. Noob is a stupid word, but at least it isn't real word. When "Noob" becomes overused, people will stop saying it, and the word will die out. Great. But these idiots are devaluing an actual word. They're going to kill it.

Guys, we have to work harder to keep memes where they belong, on the internet. When these fads spread into real life, they immediately cease being funny. What's next? People talking in LOLcat speak? If you found that as horrifying as I did, please stop overusing the word "fail" and never, ever, use internet humor in real life. For the sake of the internet, and for the sake of my sanity.

Overused... definitely.. I just hate it when a 10 year old kid calls you "NOOB" over xbox live.
