"When did the notorious Guantanamo Bay Naval Base change to 'Gitmo,' a word that conjures up an image of a fluffy and sweet character from a Japanese anime show?" asked Marcus W., of St. Louis.

It was before you were born, 'tard, decades before "anime".

UNDOCUMENTED ALIEN -- "If they haven't followed the law to get here, they are by definition 'illegal.' It's like saying a drug dealer is an 'undocumented pharmacist.'" -- John Varga, Westfield, New Jersey.

That is awesome!

I saw "awesome". But, only when something is greater than greater than great. :-) As in, "William Joseph's piano playing is awesome."

I guess we can be thankful that they didn't go after "hugh" and "series."

Rot. It's not a misspelling: It's a portmantaeu word (as described in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass.

It compresses into one word 'played', 'owned' and 'won'.

There is no 'Academie Francaise' for English. The prescriptivists who try to keep the language frozen or govern from some elite center its progress will inevitably get pwned by actual usage. Hopefully, pwned is here to stay like the modal use of 'hopefully'.
