I figuered it meant something along those lines, I just never understood why one didn't just say, "your ass got owned." ha, anyway, thanx for clearing that up.

at first I thought it was a filter on the forum that changed it to a "p"..........lmao


I also thought ":biggrin:" was "briggin"...lmao


and I was always like, "wtf does briggin mean?!?" I thought it was slang for bragging or somthin, I had no idea for the longest time

Thats what I figured..someone saw it mispelt one to many times and thought it was cool. Same explanation could be used for 'teh'
