You keep referring to me as a nerd as if it affects me negatively. I play table-top roleplaying games, the accordion, and I work at the local renaissance faire. I am, in fact, a nerd. No questions asked.
I revel in my nerdity.
That said, I probably got laid more last weekend than you have in the last year, so it all balances out.

1) urban dictionary is worthless. trite web fodder for dorky college kids. it's gone from lame to lamer in a matter of three years, and is in no way an authority on anything but wackness.
2) psych is an abbreviation of psychology. it's where the word sike originates, but it's not spelled the same. just like "phat" came from fat, or "jawn" came from john, the slang is spelled differently. squares seem to miss that point. let it forever be ingrained in your memory.

Guys, "sike" from my perspective has NOTHING to do with the internet. I've never typed it until today and I don't think I've ever seen it online before assisting in this thread jack. However, back in junior high, we wrote it as "sike" in those little comics and notes that we wrote and drew and folded like paper footballs and paper wallets to pass around in class when the teacher was writing on the board.
And yes, at least most of us knew it came from "psych."
But mostly I remember dudes coming up to shake hands with you in the hall, and they would pull their hand away and make like they were combing their hair, and say "SIKE!"
That shiz must be from a movie but I cannot remember it.

and by the way i think sp00ki is right about everything else. sike is right. psyching someone is getting them excited to go do something fun. siking someone is that thing people used to do, which got got played out in 3rd grade....
SIKE
