Ok, I know this is probably a stupid question but I've got to ask...I was at Comic-Con San Diego today and saw a shirt which contained a phrase I've seen before but never thought to ask what it means: "rent to pwn". Any helpful EQers out there mind filling me in? Thanks.

He's saying he's "all that and a bag 'o chips" basically. PWN is a play on OWN, as in "OMGZZZ I PWND U!! j00 SUXX0RZZ!" There's differing ideas as to why it's a P instead of an O, the most believable (IMO) being the P is beside the O and is easily mistyped.

Translating Jiggedy:

Literal:
Oh, my [gosh]! I own you! You suck!

Meaning:
I am exited! I beat you badly! You are not a good player!
