"That movie is teh wicked".

Like that.

Me too.

Seriously.

It came about the same way that "pwn" did. (If you haven't heard of it, it's supposedly the same as "own").

Some guy typoed, and was too stubborn to let it go, so he just made something up, saying it was a "better" version of the word.

There was once TES -- The Eulengspiegel Society. (An S&M organization) But TES lost its popularity and they were eventually overrun by TEH -- The Enema Horde.

Every now and then their members inconspicuously pretend to mistype "the" as "teh"...it's a clever way of saying "Hey, I enjoy having tubes shoved into my anus! Please deposit a new and exciting fluid into my bowels, and finish with some hot manlove."

So whenever you see someone pretend to mistype "the," you're supposed to offer them an enema with a studsausage chaser.

Me? I just ignore them.

OMG!

What's wrong wiht a genuine typo?

Simply horrifying. I still contend that when I do it, it's a simple type-o. Maybe a combination of poor typing skills, dyslexia, and inattentiveness, but certainly nothing at all to do with enemas and 'stud-sausage'!

WTF

So "That movie is the wicked" is right?

You don't understand, there's a new "leet speak" going around like "teh cool" and "pwn".

BBQ

teh waht?

Which is probably a derivative of "it's the ****" and "it's the bomb" which led to "it's the awesome," et cetera. Trends rise and fall, most are rather stupid.

The only thing it's really done for me is pinpoint how old the people are on the net that are typing it.

Mike

No...nothing at all... Your secret is safe with us, TI. We love you for who you are. We don't care about your Milk-and-Camomile cornhole cocktail.

Tee hee hee...I said "cocktail."

This thread is teh funney. Werd.

same to you

It all started with Jeff K., duh.

It pisses me off when the little kids do it, but when one of my friends does it intentionally I think it is funny.

Example:



It's not funny, though, when 1337 H4X0RZ do it because that's really how they speak to each other. Those people deserve a shovel to the back of the head.

I usually see it used in the context of "something is teh awesome!!!1!" But I am still annoyed more by seeing windoze, windblows, etc. I mean, I guess it's kinda funny, but really... it's not that funny.

What about M$?

I thought it all started with the clothing people "French Connection UK" or as they like to be known - FCUK.

Next to the FCUK store in Darlo Sydney the clothing store next door started it's own range of slogan T-shirts "CNUT"

Personally I think they should spell check before they print

not to mention the

I *liek* milk fame

This is the right answer.

It's also become trendy to say "OMG WTF TEH SUCKS GUYS AM I RITE OH YES I AM RITE LOLOL!!!!"

OMG! annoys me for some reason as well. Reminds me of a valley girl.

Also, people who cannot distinguish between your and you're.. that's pretty annoying too.
