This might strike a contrast to what everyone else in this forum reads for leasure:
The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodorovich Dostoevsky Crime and Punishment by Fyodorovich Dostoevsky Vanity Fair by William Thackeray (very slowly and occasionally) Just finished Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev I've ordered a biography of Tito that was recomended to me. Balkan history has been one of my passive interests.
The past summer I finished Hugo's two works, Les Miserables and Notre Dame de Paris s well as some Tom Hardy, The Mayor of Casterbridge. Pretty much a smorgasboard. I've put Sci-Fi on hold for a while...

No, life is only given to me once and I shall never have it again; I don�t want to wait for �the happiness of all.� I want to live myself, or else better not live at all. I simply couldn�t pass by my mother starving, keeping my rouble in my pocket while I waited for the �happiness of all.� I am putting my little brick into the happiness of all and so my heart is at peace.

You know, I'm glad no-one gave the smart-arse answer.

Ah, but you see, Liam wasn't using Hacker-Speak, he was using Cracker/Phreak/Lamer-Speak.
The main rules are:
Misspell frequently. The substitutions phone => fone freak => phreak are obligatory.
Always substitute `z's for `s's. (i.e. "codes" -> "codez"). The substitution of 'z' for 's' has evolved so that a 'z' is bow systematically put at the end of words to denote an illegal or cracking connection. Examples : Appz, passwordz, passez, utilz, MP3z, distroz, pornz, sitez, gamez, crackz, serialz, downloadz, FTPz, etc.
Type random emphasis characters after a post line (i.e. "Hey Dudes!#!$#$!#!$").
Use the emphatic `k' prefix ("k-kool", "k-rad", "k-awesome") frequently.
TYPE ALL IN CAPS LOCK, SO IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE YELLING ALL THE TIME.
His CASP LOKC was indeed correct.
