No life
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
(Redirected from Get a life)
An Internets term meaning "to fail".
[edit] Etymology/Explanation
Without variation, the first accusation or retort of the pwned is that the pwnr has no life. This is normally phrased as a claim that the pwnr spends too much time on the Internets, or that the incidence of pwnage took "too much time" or "too much effort", clearly indicating that the pwnr is obsessed with and quite possibly Internet stalking the pwnee.
Because this is almost the exclusive standard usage of the phrase, no life has become a de facto acknowledgment of pwnification. Thus most trolls will remain unsatisfied until told they have no life.
