zOMG!/Headscratchers

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • zOMG. Just, how are you supposed to talk about that to your friends and make it sound normal? Where the hell did they get a name like that? If it's supposed to sound cool, it doesn't.
    • I've heard "ZOMG" being used as an intensified "OMG" by a friend, so... that must be it. Also, I don't think it's supposed to sound normal. At all.
    • We're supposed to make zOMG! sound normal when we talk about it?
    • The name "zOMG!" came from some contest within Gaia to name the MMO. I saw some outright better names for the game, who knows how zOMG stuck its head out to actually win?
      • It works (only slightly, though) if you know that 'OMG' was actually the name of a Monthly Collectible from 2003. Sort of a Call Back, however tenuous it is.
      • It also works as a Call Back to the Zombie Apocalypse events we've had, since one interpretation of zOMG is "zombies, OH MY GOD"
