ahhhhhh, nice one! i gets it, i do. (altho root doesn't :()

and another one- not sure if it's on the list- "we pawned you", as in "we pwned you", as in "we owned you", as in "we dominated your sorry ass". (a more detailed thesis to follow)

I demand credit for this term, though not for this meaning; I just use it as a generic swear word, much like the guards use "taff" in the Thief games.

Just thought I might add a couple of my favorites...

Lag-death -> 1) Used, often as an excuse, to explain a dump in which the driver fervently believes (s)he shouldn't have been the one to die. (Often interchangable with 'NOMS')

2) Alternativly, can be used to describe a death resulting from excessive lag-slide, or invisiwalls.

Finger-lag -> Used for those instances in which one knows precisely what one should do, then promptly fails to do it, resulting in their demise.
You're MINE bi...Aww, dammit!

twitchy

Post by Lucifer »

I don't see anybody else using it, but when I say "twitchy", I really mean I twitched, and then hit somebody's walls. Usually a reaction to caffeine being introduced in my system faster than normal and/or just being cold. After I warm up, I don't say twitchy anymore because I stop twitching.
