Elite.

As in, 'damn, I'm so l33t I could kill <object> with <weapon>'

Its also the designation for the 1337 language, IE '/\/\Y N4m3 15 d74c5'

1337 is the short version of the word 31337 (Eleet) which is a kind of hacker speak, or at least used to be.

Thank you.


1337 is a bastardization of the word elite.

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end... "
