This is the second part of five in the "[[:Category:1337|1337]]" series. The title 1337 is "L-eet," or "elite," using the {{w|Leet}} alphabet, a coding system used primarily on the internet (and on early text messaging systems), meant to provide a bit of {{w|obfuscation}} to plain text both to make it harder to read and to show off in a creative way using in-group jargon. | This is the second part of five in the "[[:Category:1337|1337]]" series.

"Like a ring in a bell" appears to be a reference to the {{w|Chuck Berry}} song {{w|Johnny B. Goode}}, in which Berry describes a young boy (like himself) who becomes a guitar-playing prodigy. The original lyric was "just like a-ringing a bell." Apparently, [[Help I'm trapped in a driver's license factory Elaine Roberts|Elaine Roberts]] learned to program as quickly, easily, and skillfully as Johnny (and Chuck) learned to play rock 'n' roll. | "Like a ring in a bell" appears to be a reference to the {{w|Chuck Berry}} song {{w|Johnny B.
