How do YOU pronounce PWNED?

It looks like there's no consensus on the pronunciation of pwned, so I was curious how y'all say it.

I've never actually said it and honestly haven't given it any thought at all. But now that you've brought it up all I can picture are these bad boys.  |

Yeah, I had never thought about saying it before until I saw this video, and then I started wondering. What happens if participants in a business meeting behave like Internet commenters? (NSFW) http://www.neatorama.com/...e-like-internet-comments/ |

Man I wish I could talk to some of the women at work like that. I can't even think like that in front of my wife without getting bitch slapped.

Yeah, I had never thought about saying it before until I saw this video, and then I started wondering. Really? That was my first second thought the first time I saw it. (First thought was, "what does 'pwn3d' mean?" Wasn't much about the pronunciation then, either. So decided to go with "pawned" over anything else. Then, just to make life simpler, I switched to "owned" since that's the meaning anyway. |
