Are you serious its pronounced 'pawn'??? I always pronounced it "pone" (phone withone the h..) and when I told my friend of it (who never knew about it before) he also pronounced it pawn...

Too bad for Nash.. he was ready to go again then bam injured in practice... I couldn't stand being injured in practice, I want to go down in a game, big basket.. :cool:

It's pronounced 'own' although when I was an internet n00b I just thought 'pawn' in my head since it's one letter short.

it's not 'pawn' it's 'pwn'. Idiot...It's purposely misspelling a word. Like 'teh'.


when u call people idiot for a simple mistake...

Yes i know what pawn means... i dont know what the australian term for it means because a lot of people on these forums say "pwn"...

Pawn in Australia means to sell something to one of those 2nd hand shops.

or people use is as a code word for PORN!!!!!!! :D

Actually if an Australian says "Porn" it comes out sounding like "Pawn". Or "Prawn"... were you talking about prawns Tim_Duncan125? You were weren't you....

sure was jae... prawns r really good. but really-what else would "pwn" be short for?...
and to get back on topic-the spurs and suns are playing tonight in about 4 hours. not good for suns... 6th loss.

Suns are kickin the Spurs' ass right now in the 4th. Ginobili, Amare and Marion are on fire. It's a really fun game.

What? Christmas is over? :crazy:

Sun Jan 23, 2005 8:59 am

Well it looks like the Suns are still in the spirit of giving. :D

ne1 who plays online fps (which is the frontier for e-speak and modern culture) knows that own -> pwn -> pawn -> prawn is just a natural progression the world over

When I first read that I thought it said:
"And Santa can lick my balls." :lol:

since we're talking about Spurs, and I know you don't respect his game TD125, but it's great to see Sean Marks finally get activated....he's averaging 8 and 3 for the season

:shhh:
