Dumb questions here. What is the 1337? And what does o7 mean?

Looked it up. Found this to be very interesting! Learned something new today!
"Leet speak" predates 1337 culture; leet speak ("elite speak") is a stylistic way of spelling English letters by using numbers and special ASCII characters on your keyboard. This is a cultural expressiveness that spawned when 1980's hackers wanted to cloak their websites and online conversations from being found.
@ChippySuave
Maybe referring to Leet? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet
@ChippySuave - 1337 = "leet" or "elite"
But "the 1337" = the 1337 people J follows on Twitter.
