how does one say "pwned" out loud? as far as i am aware, there is much debate on the subject. i have seem claims of "pooned", "pawned", "pwunned" amongst others. who has the final word on this? i have been known to utter "owned!" on many an occasion, but for maximum pwnage, i'm keen to hit people with the real deal without sounding foolish. advice k thx plz.

i say it "pawned" because i want to, when n3rds tell me i'm saying it wrong, i pawn them.

i think I pronounce it like "owned" but with a "p" at the beginning.

I say "pawned." I think the popular thing to say in my town is "poned" though.

I've never said it out loud. I read it as "poned".
