w00t is 3rd Favorite Non-Dictionary Word

Posted by Zonk on from the not-a-fan-of-confuzzled dept.

Jay writes "The word has been getting out apparently. No longer just a word for gamers, 'woot' now appears as #3 in Merriam-Webster's What's Your Favorite Word (That's Not in the Dictionary)? contest. It was beaten out by ginormous and confuzzled."
