Ok, so are you leet? I used to be, atleast my head did think so. I used to play World of Warcraft, and there 1337 used to get quite alot of atention. Basically everytime you crit or hit with your spells/abilitys for 1337, its instant screenshot and shout it out on guild-chat. Or during raids people used to roll /random 1337(randomly choses a number between 1 and 1337), and everybody started doing it during raids(25/40 ppl gathered doing dungeons) Anyone who got 1337 was no1, and ofcourse that resulted into SPAM, and more spam, not to mention when people figured out how to make macros(several commands in one) to increase their chances, the spam became endless in the chat. Those raids were epic lol. Had to end with whoever rolled without permission got kicked out of the raid.
However, my point here aint anything but 1337. That numbers been drilled into my head after playin WoW. I mean, literally, my head has a clock, and it makes me look at my watch, and I allways seem to look at it exactly 13.37. I lol everytime. Or everywhere I go, I see that fuckin number. Does that make me leet??
So after couple of months, I started missing it, like I allways looked at my watch, and its one minute too late. And Im like "shit, its 13.38, I missed it, damn!" Im getting out of shape. Haha, so I decided to put my clock 1min back to check if it was really me, the clock inside that is messed up.(due to my toally fucked up sleeping patterns) Well obviously didnt work, so I just had to conclude with that im totally out of shape. Im so depressed lol, I need to train more! ^^

EDIT: ahh I forgot, it was actually all because of that stupid thread on gg.net "post here everyday at exactly 13.37 to become leet" I blame them, that thread got old!

That's pathetic obsession.

But, WoW does that to you doesn't it? I must admit the idea of hundreds of people furiously rolling numbers, hoping, nay, praying that they land on the holy number of 1337 makes me giggle inside.

I was in the guidence office making my schedual for next year (high school) and I asked my counceler to reserve locker 1337 for me since it's a senior locker anyway. She had no idea why I would want it and I just kinda said it was an inside joke or something so... SUCCESS!

Jesus, man I just quit WoW 2 weeks ago and now there's a thread about it on TL.net ?

Nothing is sacred anymore.
SonuvBob: Yes, the majority of TL is college-aged, and thus clearly stupid.

I thought every nerd on the internet gets excited when they randomly cross the number 1337? I know I do.

You are not alone!

I do something similar, except with 1:11 pm. Back in high school, one of my friends and I were in this PE class for really lazy people, Walk Fit. You basically just wander around for the class period, so we were always making up stupid shit. Anyway, we decided to synchronize our watches when it was 1:11, and every day after that, when it was 1:11 we would start yelling "ONE ONE ONE WOOOOOO!!!" and high fiving with the group we walked in.

To this day, every time I see 111 I have a little party in my head.

I took a screen shot of my trackmania nations (within AUS) rank being 1337. Although that was a long long time ago.
