It's "pown" or "pone" OP, though "pawn" is OK as a regional variant.

I've always said pawn. Why bother with p-own if you can just say own instead. It's stupid. Pwn to me meant making someone look really simple or dumb. Like a pawn.

I just saw this post and it reminded me of P. Baldwin:

"I know a married gay couple who live in Brooklyn and both work on Broadway. One of them is a producer and is Jewish (lol) and the other one is a lighting director that's in really good shape and is an extremely skilled carpenter and electrician. They're two of the happiest/most self-actualized people I've ever met. I'm not one of them and won't sign my post"

Being extremely lovely and boring in Brooklyn is a staple of the P. Baldwin experience.

Pown reads as 'poun' to me. It's pwn (pone). Voted other.
