America

Often misdefined as a country, it is actually TWO CONTINENTS. The United States of America is the country.

phatehic

An in-joke amongst a few users of Gaia Online. Somebody made a thread about how people who participate in cyber sex are pathetic, but due to their poor spelling, said "phatehic" instead. Several users feigned insult at the use of this word and have been using it ever since

ppl hu cyber r phatehic ("People who cyber are pathetic")
