A Lesson in English

[ostapslobodian]

Is this guy for real?

Or is this just a parody of a English man?

[frenbread]

I never did like the internet lingo of the sort...

[flatted5th]

Well done Cadbury- here are two which bother me "ignorant"- most take as an insult, actually one chooses to "ignor" therefore they don't "know" another "amateur" another case of mistaken "insult" "ama"=to love "teur"=do- do it because you love it!

Very good of you to educate the masses.

[effectiam]

[kareblue]

[KaceKlosed]

I do say, finally someone who respects the English language as much as I do. Certainly a splendid occasion to raise your glass (or boutique mug) and congratulate this man... Here, here.

[MirageAtoli]

I find your use of transitive logic amusing.

[zsandmann]

That was fantastic!

[Bibbly53]

My quick capture reply failed.

Youtube failed.

Dammit.

With love and fascism. I've had to create my own video separate from the well articulated one I made previously.

[emopope]

Lol omg, this character is the perfect example of English people that annoy me to death.

[whtshdwhawk]

[wildblur]

Cadbury, you dominate at Youtube.

[CadburyAdamsEsquire]

I think you'll find I PWN at you tube, get with the times young man!

[LotSix66]

Pf cpurse "pwn" means "own"! Isn't it pbvipus?

[bwhahrhr]

originaly pwn comes from qwned wich comes from owned wich comes from "I own(ed) you". qwn was first used, afaik, in the gamingcomunity of EverQuest. (The Only reason this comment was posted was for the purpose of giving a great video a comment it deserves).

[DoseOfOwnage]

God, do people not know the keyboard? Pwn came from the misspelling of the word own. The source of this error is that the "p" key is next to the "o" key

[bwhahrhr]

your "source" does not stand a chance against my higly developed and scientific(!!!!11111) researches I did while playing everquest. there this word came first to my attention ~ 1999/2000 as "qwned". :)

[evilfishxxx]

hey just for you to look up

go on "wikipedia" and look up "leet"

[Trig3R]

try 1337

great video anyway :)

[evilfishxxx]

yeah but ellt is the letter version of 1337

[DyBee]

[brainstormy]

How old are you Esquire?

[CadburyAdamsEsquire]

34 old bean, why does one ask?

[danno191]

Just watch this video again still funny good job!

M.Owen is welsh by the way

[RickSoCrazy]

Dont be Daft mate its like LOL Its for games

Like when your playing someone online.

They used to mix the o and the p Right then

[CheapRobot]

plz turn up the volume. what?

[brainstormy]

Khem. If you look at the keyboard the letters 'o' and 'p' are next to each other, so maybe it was misspelt???

[cooksterz]

i think you need a shot to thwart the infection! :D LOL

[onlywhenprovoked]

lol. well done.

[riverbasil]

lmao!!! first video I've actually laughed out loud hysterically in a while Mr Adams!!! More people need to know about you! I can't stop laughing... sorry, hope you don't die from infection

[musosf]

No!  Cadbury mustn't be lost to lead poisoning! Perhaps Michael Pwen can be convinced to attend the funeral, given his supporting role in the cause of death?

[Heraldocosta]

Cadbury, I think that old fashion is the the only correct fashion, todays trouble makers with there hipin' hopy. and ther graffitti and there loose clothing. children should be educated the british way. like you.

[iEatDogsAndCats]

CadburyAdamsEsquire To bad you didn't hold the paper with your ass...

[iEatDogsAndCats]

So, what's the point, That you got PWNED be a pensil? <BR><BR><B>To bad you didn't hold the paper with your ass...

[SamIsLost]

right'o old chap, these young whipper snappers need to learn the true usage of our great English language

[silverscreamgrl]

Be careful because I hear lead poisoning is not fun.

[tripplehelix]

LMFAO! You are hilarious :D LOL! I'm a member of the sandwich generation :D

[AgentDark]

Let me explain. This word originates from the Video Gaming World. When you kill someone or do a lot better than them, you say I OWN YOU. Now This means "I now posess you". Or "I am your master". One day in a computer gaming session, it is believed, someone missed the "O" Key and hit "P". Thus PWN was born.

There you go :-)

[tripplehelix]

LMFAO!

[starglider2006]

Actually, you were close, but it was the programmers of "World Of Warcraft" who started it. The programmers misspelt the word "owned" as "pwned" as one of the messages that would appear onscreen, and it started from there.

[AgentDark]

Thats totally wrong. Pwn was around way before WoW.

[mongobobo]

Yes, I think it originated in Counter Strike.

[AgentDark]

Correct.

[AgentDark]

PONED!

[littlevoice28]

A fine lesson for today Cadbury, of course how silly of me...PWN is nothing to do with the practical mistake of letting one's finger slip on ones keyboard!! Well ffs, I'm off to Twok a few. Will you come to visit me in HMP??? xx P.S does pencil lead not need a tetanus?

[Le0kardia]

I watched it twice, but I still don't know what Pwn means. It doesn't mean "own", does it???

[CadburyAdamsEsquire]

Alledgedly, yes. but i'm not convinced.

[Le0kardia]

I just watched "ActionTeacher". He explained it very well. I do apologies for being foreign. ;-)

[Pramatus]

Thanks for the lesson. I never knew what they were trying to say with PWN. Also, I havent heard someone say bahookie in a while. Good show. Keep up the great videos.

[adnerb924]

instead of : WOW! it be would be : WPW? :o(

[CadburyAdamsEsquire]

Exactly!

[evilfishxxx]

no because acording to your self wpw would be wo so wpww would be wow GG n00b

[BadAlbert]

Pencil pwnage FTW!

[CadburyAdamsEsquire]

Ermm...What does FTW mean? I'm really confused now.

[BadAlbert]

Fearless Tiny Watson - he was a world war 2 spitfire ace who had both elbows shot off in the Battle Of Britain...

[CadburyAdamsEsquire]

AAh! yes! I Remember him! he actually served in the same squadron as my great uncle Jeremiah!

[AgentDark]

It actually means For the Win
