I thought so too at first. But then I saw this explanation of it and it seems interesting in a zeitgeist kinda way. It also helps that my favorite form of entertainment these days is participating in streams

A surprising number of younger people can pronounce my username. There's some hope after all

Well, of course, we're all familiar with the classic Aztec deity Tezlacoatl.

1337 or l33t "Leet" or Elite. There was a phase in the early 2000s called leetspeak it was the language of online gamers. n00b, pwn3d, h4x0r, d00dz are examples. It evolved in to lolspeak which was made popular by lolcats and is kinda how memes started to evolve into what they are today (impact font white on black outline); i can haz cheezburger, in ur base killin ur doodz, doge etc

Yeah, likely inspired by the term 'elite' from Hackers in 1995, yeah I was making a joke.

Is it meant to be pronounced boorzjee like short for bourgeois? It's tricky just seeing it in written form.

Short/contraction for bourgeoisie. That new brunch place is bougie AF.

Ah yeah looks like I knew it. I just didn't know the slang was spelled that way.

2 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I mean I'm probably wrong but I just spell it like boozhy, since I like saying zhuzh and it's the same phonetic
