coining a term for words like moran
As I was reading OOT today, I saw the standard usage of "moran", "retarted" and so on. I got to thinking about words like these and realized that I couldn't think of a term or word to classify them. I feel that they're common enough on the internet to warrant a grouping term, but "leet speak" is broad and doesn't describe these words, and I can't think of anything else.
Perhaps I'm just a retarted moran for even thinking of this, but I found it interesting...Thoughts? |

asofelisms?
I think they probably just fall under the term of slang or possibly "OOT jargon" |
