   My little brother (soon to be 12) uses "pwn" or some variation thereof pretty much all the time–sports, video games, board games, online games, etc…

   I used to use it. Then when I saw that my sister was using it (like 4 years ago), I thought it to be too childish and I made a vow to remove "w00t" from my vocabulary.
