W00T! (she said to the nearest locavore)

WOOT! I mean W00T!

Dang if I’ve haven’t been using but >gasp< misspelling* Merriam-Webster‘s Word of the Year for at least twice that long. But come to find out, those are spoze to be zeroes, not ohs (guess I’m still not quite one of the kewl kids, huh?). And here what I thought happy bloggers holler is actually “an expression of joy” proper to “online gamers.” D’oh, I’ll just never catch up.

BUT. All’s we need is a little cool weather hereabouts to sweeten up our citrus some more, and I can apply for admission to the Oxford English Dictionary‘s Word of the Year too, go around calling myself a locavore. So there, you online gamers — neener neener neener!

lotus, the w00tin’ soon-to-be locavore

* Or is it a misenumerating? A mispolling maybe? I get so confused.

    My fave is still defenestrate from a few years ago, as in “George Bush defenestrated 2003′s word of the year (democracy).”

    w00t = gamers, w$$t =financial blogers, w%%t=pollsters, w##t= weight watchers, w**t= censors. The list of possibilities is endless. My favorite is w??t= clueless
