Can I get a w00t, w00t? I'm not clutching my pearls that a word that has two numbers in it is in the dictionary or Word of the Year, but I am sort of confused as to why it was the word of this year. It's been around a while and, while it's definitely used, especially on the Internet, I didn't detect any upsurge in its use this year, and, at least in that form, is fairly confined to the gaming community. But I guess they're just using it as an emblem of a trend or direction in words or something.
