w00t! is an internet term used similar to "woohoo!", for instance, or "yay!".

Morons! :lol: :wink:

I haven't heard that "woot" word yet. The word that I can't figure out is "meh"... What is this? A cute way of saying "me"?...A sound?...A cat noise?
Help me out here!

All I know is I've been saying it since High School (i.e. mid to late 80s).

I take it to be a sound of dismissal. Kind of like a grunt. You know that disgusted look Kermit the Frog gets on his face? That's "meh".
