Yeah, I find it really offensive. 
What is this "pwned" nonsense that I see cropping up more often? methinks it is a typo that has now become its own word.....meaning owned? A gaming term perchance?

Well, you better buckle down and get used to it! Each generation brings it's new additions and modifications to the english language. Words that are currently cool and hip, such as pwned, will soon take their place in the english lexicon next to gnarly, tubular, groovy, far out, and daddie-o.
Oh. waitaminnit...

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pwnedA corruption of the word "Owned." This
originated in an online game called Warcraft, where a map designer
misspelled "owned." When the computer beat a player, it was supposed to
say, so-and-so "has been owned."
Instead, it said, so-and-so "has been pwned."
It basically means "to own" or to be dominated by an opponent or situation, especially by some god-like or computer-like force.
"Man, I rock at my job, but I still got a bad evaluation. I was pwned."
OR
"That team totally pwned us."

Bible:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bibleAn ancient novel full of murder, corruption, homosexuality, bestiality,
incest and cruelty. It is often read to children on Sunday.

the main characters are gamers, i beleive.
if it makes you feel any better Miz P i find many words and sayings from older generations to be either silly or downright stupid.

I actually like Pwned. It was a typo that was given some sort of meaning given the context it occurred in.
The one that I CAN'T STAND is "For Reals" (which I think may be spelled 'realz') which I hear all to often nowadays from punk idiots.
