I guess I'm not a nerd. I had no idea what 1337 meant until I searched on it.
For those who aren't smart enough, like myself, 1337 represents LEET. It derived from the latin word "el lite" and can be represented as l33t and other such variations. It became a status obtained by a member on a forum or board and allowed them exclusive access to pirated software, etc... Popular in the late 80s and early 90s. However, now hackers, gamers, animators, etc...(nerds) use it.
I hope thats right. If not, correct and elaborate.
After I found out, I chuckled too..

I'm not entirely sure if it goes back as far as the 80's, either.
