Half-Life 2

The sequel to the game in which you played as some nerdy scientist with a crowbar. Now, in Half-Life 2, you're a badass nerd scientist with a crowbar. It promises revolutionary graphics, physics engine, characters, storyline and quite frankly everything else. It will be an amazing game without a doubt.

Half-Life 2 will rule.

Counter-Strike

An online mod of Half-Life (and a newer, graphical-focused version being a mod of the Half-Life sequel, Half-Life 2) which is about as addictive as every drug combined to the average PC gamer. It is also known to be the one game that has the ability to convert one hardcore console gamer into a full-time PC gamer within a few hours of play due to its sheer addictiveness.

The game pits Counter-Terrorists against Terrorists in a tactical shooter environment, though nowadays it is seen by the average gamer more as a pure shooter game with a simple goal: kill your opponents, then work as a team. Many see the community as a bad thing because of this. They also are stereotyped to use numbers in every sentence, a.k.a 1337 speak.

To this day, Counter-Strike alone has generated more Internet traffic than the entire country of Italy.

Steve: Thanks for getting me into Counter-Strike, Andy. Now I'll never be able to pick up Halo 2 again!

Andy: N0w 1t pwns j00r s0le.

Steve 10 Years Later: CS is tearing my life apart -- but I love every minute of it.

Hunting and Pecking

(Also known as H and P.) Hunting and Pecking refers to somebody who is extremely slow at typing. The way H and P-ers type is searching the keyboard row by row finding the key to press, then hitting that key and repeating the process. Some people such as myself find this extremely irritating because you just would like to get up, punch the typer in the head, sit down and began typing at 1000+ words a minute.

Nerd: Type faster...please type faster or I'll wound you!
Typer: Click...Click...Click...
Nerd: AGGHHHH!!!!

Sk8er

Started by Canadian tard Avril Lavigne, Sk8er is used by 10-12 year olds who follow Avril Lavigne like a freaking god. These 10-12 year olds have merely got their first taste of "rock," and have been pulled into it's will by the WRONG person, namely Avril. These 10-12 year olds refer to anti-sk8ers as "h8ers." The "8" is used in place fo "at" because the 10-12 year olds cannot spell "skater."

Thanks a lot, Avril. You just ruined the word "skateboarder" and the sport of boarding forever. Now the common stereotype for skateboarders is being a poser.

Dilly

A "hokey" term.

What you would say when you are in a bad situation, but is not contrived as a swear word so you can't get in trouble for it.

"Aw, dilly," said Pete as his parents found him on a porn site.

"This is one dilly of a pickle."

Halo 2

A great game made by Bungie for the Xbox. It was so hyped fans were expecting a life-changing experience and an ascension to the higher level of gaming. Many fans were sad when they found Halo 2 wasn't God's gift of gaming goodness, and Halo 2 was looked at as an over-rated game by many. Sadly, it was not looked upon as the great game it was by normal gamers, but Xbox fans see it as phenonmenal. They're right. The game sold way, way more than any other game ever. (That includes GTA: San Andreas.) And it made Microsoft 125 million dollar.

Guy: Halo 2 sucks! It's sooo over-rated! Wah, wah, wah!

Xbox Fan: Over 150,000 people disagree with you, idiot.
