Internet slang has many faults, two of which I can pick out.

1. How can you laugh your bum off, I know that I can't.

2. Would you really write on the keyboard whiilst rolling on the floor laughing?

Discuss, and add.

Doesn't explain why they say pr0n though. Porn is much easier to say. And it's right scary how much you know about this..

I believe that it originated with hackers, but was then stolen by some wannabe online gamers.

I think pr0n originated from phat max, which was a popular naked ladies site, it flicked through pictures automatically, so you didnt need to stop to click "next".

I thought j00 meant "you". Well, first time I read it I thought the person was being racist to Jews :D

And it's not hacker speak, it's gamer speak for online games.

No, they are trying to be different, and are creating a language for their particular following.
