Jigga-Zula Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Wow that's one of the most retarded things I've ever seen. How the fuck is it dangerous? That woman regularly "checks" in with her child? WOW I would be really pissed off if my parents did that when I was younger. Does she also listen to his phone calls, and video tape him while he's in the bathroom to make sure he's not strokin' it? Hurray for increasing ratings by preying on parents worries with yet another greatly exaggerated "problem". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I think the Mom at the end seemed fairly sensible, she admits she doesn't know much about computers so trys to keep a tab on what her kids do. Like it or not, the net is full of nasty stuff that isn't suitable for young kids. However, the cop is another story. How dumb can you be before the police employment board says "ummmm... no".

Jigga-Zula Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Hmm apparently I didn't type what I meant. By "checking in" I meant going and reading his IM's. She's going in and looking at what he's typing and well I would really be pissed off if my parents had done that too me. Whatever I'm ranted out I'm going to sleep...

CaveMan Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I showed this to my dad and he found it funny as hell! Than he told me kids were too stupid to make up a language ;P so parents who cant read it are even more stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinzanova Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I loved back in the day when my mom found my pager and tried to decypher that... I thought pager spelling was the original form? Then you could get bad ass with it, and jump numbers for even more cryptic meaning (aaawwweeee those were the days). (by jump number I mean, 1 = 9, 9 = 1, 3 = 7 etc... and 0 = 5 and 5 = 0; basic code, called jumping the five, made famous (a little past it's useful date) by HBO's TV Series 'The Wire').

chayak Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 Yeah, I never bothered much with 1337 myself as I was a cipherpunk from a young age. Encryption is your friend but when you have your linux laptop encrypted with /boot on a usb key it's just cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
degoba Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I wouldnt call it leet speek. I would call it kids being too fucking lazy to type complete sentences. Vako is right. Keep tabs on the kids, fire that dumbass cop, and maybe broadcast a real news story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickarse Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 The best thing to do is educate your child before they do something. Not what this mother is doing. She doesn't need to know much about the internet to know there's a wealth of information. And there's dirty money, pr0n sites, out there, among other things. She needs to get a grip, if the kid really wanted to do something wrong he's probably already doing it and is smarter than she is in hiding that fact.

VaKo Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I don't think a 7yr old needs to learn about anal fisting, that can wait for a bit, no? Yeah, life is full of nasty things but its exactly like TV, if you don't educate your kids that there is a line between fantasy and reality they will fuck up somewhere along the line. I don't agree with wiretapping your kids (without warrant anyway), but keeping an eye on what there doing might stop them deciding to meet that 13yr old cheer leader/47yr old trucker from myspace when your at work.

cooper Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 My sis has 4 kids aged 8 through 13 and she keeps CLOSE tabs on them, especially with the computer. None of the kids are allowed to just plug their media player into the box. Presumably (and looking at the machine every so often it appears to be true) they don't yet even know how to download music. They did pick up on that other nasty habit my sis has: When something like a game says something needs to be installed (think annoying banner or Claria here), they click it with no questions asked. But anyways, my sis would read the kids documents and check their email and who are on their IM lists. There's only one kid who I think really needs it as she's totally irresponsible (and a bit of a flake). Since I figured my sis was being a bit of a nazi I asked her if she wasn't maybe being a little overprotective and such. Wow, did I ever get a mouth full. I just dropped it and let her get on to being a good parent (which she still is, regardless). Funny thing is, when I was younger my parents would let me fuck about with the computer at my own leasure. Of course, that was in the pre-internet days. But I would swap games with friends, including things like strip poker and the XT-type of animated porn. And there was plenty of messed up shit in there. I wouldn't say it made me a damaged person in later life (that had other causes :twisted:). But to call stuff like leetspeak 'dangerous' is just ludicrous.

Arsenic Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 You can't expect the noobs to actually hunt and peck every letter... I think THATS to true origin of the 'leet speak' that they are referring too here... Also, people are fucking stupid.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobotChild Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 While I think "1337" speak is pretty gay, I do use it occasionally. Nothing overboard, just the occasional "lol" every now and then, during a round of Quake 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
