love how you come on

to tell us we personally suck,
and then apologise for the size of your image.
Especially when 'woo' and 'yay' weren't invented by b3ta.

still

B3ta did invent the wonderful combination of the two to specifically refer to an amusing or artfully done image/picture, as well as the suffix 'houpla' for additional congratulations.

true

but its annoying when someone goes 'I just heard someone in the supermarket say 'woo!' - he must have been a b3tan'. They could just have been a little bit poofty...

The origin of woo

12 years ago Rob and Joel used to be flatmates. They also lived with a Polish Scouser called H ugo Grek who would spend a lot of his time jumping up and down and shouting "woo" - this is the origin of woo.

100% OF FACT

... only in the context of jumping up and down

I reckon "woo" is even older than Rob`s 45 years on this earth

that'll be why its appeared on b3ta ever since

but its proof it didn't start here!

Yes

that's all true. though the memetic spread of woo only really happened on b3ta. prior to that, it was the preserve of a small group of cogniscenti
