Y'know, isn't that title just spewing "I R Smartass"? I love it. It even rhymes. And goddamnit, I've been using "Damn" too many times. So, damn "damn" and I'll just take the rooftop exit and silently talk crap about our beloved big man in the sky while shaking my fist.

So, for the first time in history it's "Care". But who gives a damn? That's five times damn, including this one. Yes!

To finally charish the point that I'm done introducing...something, I'll cut to the chase. During the time my PC was gone, I just kept myself busy with doing a little test. One guy told me to stop using the phrase "...In real life" as I'm sitting on my couch, there's no "alternative" life to be found there.

Basicly, I tried to get as many people to respond to some of the average PC phrases. And it's actually a list. And yes, I actually said ALL of these things, to either a friend or a random fella', over Xbox LIVE, on Call of Duty 4. The goal was the response, wether they would accept or say "The hell!?".

"We got raped" - Basicly means "We got owned, big time". Some questioned it... Understandable... Even felt weird saying it.
"...In real life" - Everyone just went along with it. As if I was talking from outterspace.
"Pwn'd!" - I didn't even know how to say it so I went with "Pooowwnnn'd". Everyone yelled along with me. Guuurrreeaaaattt....
"Youtube" - There's VH1, MTV etc... I kept referring music with "Jootchoobuh". No-one found it strange.
"Jeff Gerstmann" - Got more "I know him!" than when I asked "Jeff Bridges".
"IGN" - Everyone knows about IGN... But Call of Duty 4 players in particular.
"Gamespot" - Inmediate counterquestion: "Do you have one?"
"MMORPG" - I actually spelled it out, M-M-O-R-P-G. World of Warcraft is what everyone has nowadays... I shall now prenounce it as "Meh-mor-per-ger".
"LOL" - I said it once at the end of a match, then akward silence followed. 'Nuff said.
"Blog" - I specifically said "I am sooo gonna blog about this", then the discussion of wether I used Blogspot or Blogger started. Christ.

My final test was how many times I could say "Damn" before someone would yell "Shut the **** up!". So, everytime I died I yelled "Damnit!", "Damn!" or "Goddamnit!". 21 deaths later, everyone was cussing as if there was a redneck convention around the corner. Not at me, tough. They were shouting at every death they got aswell. Timing for a Borat "Niiiiccceeee!"

The conclusion?

The conclusion falls: We've nerd-i-fied the online gaming community. Mission Success.
Positive responses: All aside from "LOL" and "Raped".
Negative responses: None. Just awkard moments.

I should've tried this ages ago, man.
