LPB - low ping bastard

By Dave Spohn, About.com

Definition: A good Internet connection, which will give you a lower ping, is a definite advantage in most real-time online games. Low pings are common among users with high bandwidth Internet connections, particularly if they are in relatively close proximity to the game server. A low ping will almost inevitably result in a player having an inflated ego about their gameplay abilities. On the other hand, if their gameplay is extraordinary, other players will almost inevitablity attribute it to a low ping.
Examples: That LPB keeps fragging me as soon as I step out the door.
