I've always seen it as an endearing encouragement for a player. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_meme: An Internet meme is an idea that is propagated through the World Wide Web. The idea may take the form of a hyperlink, video, picture, website, hashtag, or just a word or phrase, such as intentionally misspelling the word "more" as "moar". The meme may spread from person to person via social networks, blogs, direct email, news sources, or other web-based services. Debatable I guess, it's not formed online, but it is spread online and it fits the rest of the definition quite well. Not widespread, hmm, I do think it's recurring quite often at least in the starcraft community? I often see it on TL. But I agree that it's not annoying, at least for me personally. Maybe for Koreans, because it's making fun of their pronunciation? Edit: I guess so  On August 02 2011 21:42 silentreality wrote: Hwaiting is a Konglish term that has been around forever. It's origins have nothing to do with SC. Although Korean is my mother tongue, I am also a native English speaker.. and I still cringe when I hear it.. since it makes no sense whatsoever. -_-;; | ||

The only spam-ish things I really mind are in-game stuff like HUEHUEHUE and JAJAJAJA and BR?BR?MANEYZPL0X stuff like that. Gets on my nerves. I guess those don't technically count as meme's but these things are pretty widespread in MMOs lol | ||

I've always seen it as an endearing encouragement for a player. It might as well be a meme, I see it here way more than any of the other mentioned memes in this thread so far. For me it just gets really annoying after seeing in the same context more than 10 times. JaeDong HWAITING!! Flash HWAITING!! FBH HWAITING!! Bisu HWAITING!! Oh God stop already or get something new. | ||

Forgive me if its really that annoying, I just wasn't aware there were people out there that rued it so. Perhaps my old BW mind hasn't realized the changing times but I think this is one I'll have to stand by through the thick and thin. Just seems odd that a term of encouragement is hated enough to be listed among some of these other memes. Edit: I yelled out "Park Sung Joon Hwaiting" at MLG Columbus and I swear I got nothing but blanks stares from everyone around me and maybe 1 or 2 chuckles. Maybe this was just people silently shunning me for using a phrase they hate and me being totally oblivious but it really seems people were more puzzled. | ||

lol I really hate "lol" as sole response to a post. I also hate that it seems to spread into real life where people say "lol" instead of actually laughing. Seeing those memes everywhere makes me believe most people on the internet are 13 year olds. | ||
