w00t!

<p>I <em>have</em> had my morning coffee, but I'm still cynical.</p>
<p>Merriam-Webster, proving that cranky old men are about 3(^100) years behind the rest of us, crowned "w00t" as the <a href="http://www.merriam-webster.com/info/07words.htm">2007 word of the year</a>. We wonder why this wasn't done when it was cool in the gamer microcosm, and hadn't been ruined by <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=blogtard">blogtards</a> (NSFW: Language).</p>
<p>How 'bout them apples?</p>
<p>On the other hand, this is a pretty rad development, and shows just how pervasively geek culture has permeated society at large. That, my faithful readers, is wincake with awesomefrosting.</p>
<p>(This cake is not a lie).</p>
