I just looked at my son's box of Corn Pops; on the back of the box there was the 1337 alphabet and internet acronyms like RL and others in a matching game. Discuss.

Not only in America, my friend. In England people already say 'owned' when they beat someone at something... *sigh*

Uh, I take no part in saying owned >_> <_< >_>

I wouldn't really worry about where culture's going as much as I'd worry about how we're already there.

Well, sorry for the crappy image, I had to scan it in because of the glare from the camera. Click on it for a full size one.

Why? I can't get a different angle, this is from a scanner. Also, imageshack is being a bitch with their size constraints, thats where I originally tried to host it.

To verify that it actually exists and isnt a clever photoshop. To verify that the box is actually in your possession. You dont have to do it, but it would make me feel a lot better
