L33tsp34k For The Luddite Classes

[Watto]

Microsoft has published a parent's guide to online slang, and we were unable to resist it. It aims to educate confused parents about the wacky online world their kids inhabit, so that mums and dads across America don't freak out when they spy on their offsprings' email, and can't understand a word of it.

Microsoft training parents to spy on thier children.....

Gotta love how they try to scare people into thinking the internet is so dangerous and children need to be monitored.

[moochie]

ph34r my l33t skillz :ph34r:

I'm not entirely sure why parents would need their own little website to help them deciper their kids mail. Thats just wrong.

And how much time does microsoft have on its hand to coem up with something like this??? Get out their and upgrade something ffs and leave us "leetspeakers" alone.

Or we can let them learn, then when they start speaking it, we will speak normal and be like.... what the F*** are you saying mum?
