Also, to the little cunts that broke into our cars last night, I'm irrationally going to hold every youth in this neighbourhood accountable!

So if you're innocently minding your own business in the f & c shop wearing a flatpeak I'm gonnagive you a slap... cunt.

Rephrase:
What is the fucked up pseudo etymology behind this most ridiculous word?

I'm curious as today is the first time I've ever encountered it.
Someone said it to me in a game of Quake about 20 mins before I read your post.

"You mirin my rockets".
I was all thinking *what the fuck to mirrors have to do with anything?*

[mattnz]

Admiring?

[Retardobot]

Mirin is a word short for admiring.

Coined by some meat head knuckle-dragger known as Zyzz (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aziz_Shavershian) who was made famous by the internet winners over at BB Forums.

It's usually used when you notice someone presenting signs of jealousy.

[toofast]

I don't believe zyzz coined the term as much as just made its use popular.

[Pyromanik]

oh lol.
Terribads.

I read it as 'Mirr - rin', not 'myre-in'.

[Spork]

The poster above me is a noob to the internet.

[Pyromanik]

Internet citizens are noob to the world.

I speak English.
People from English speaking countries should do the same when attempting to use it as their main form of communication.

[Spork]

Pyro vs the internet!

Mirin is a word short for admiring.

The Japanese had it first.
