Where did you pick up your net slang terms?

I've seen these terms so far....

"pwned" - this slang term to me is rather stupid. I start questioning the IQ level of whoever says it. I first heard it on ATOT.

"teh" - I first heard it in counter-strike. No fvcking clue where this one comes from, it appears to be a intentional typo.

AOL chatrooms (okay, okay, stop laughing....) was first exposure to net terms.
Then... I have no idea. Picked the rest of them up talking to friends and gaming.

I've only learned ATOTisms here on ATOT (YAGT, DIAF, FTW/FTL etc etc).

I heard a lot of them on CS.

When me and my buddy first started playing CS we thought that AFK ment A Free Kill. Which I guess in CS it kinda does...

I got my education while playing Action Quake (THE game before Counter Strike for some of you young whipper-snappers).

THE game was actually wolfenstein 3D, or DOOM.
