The universe is a joke.

&&Gotta remember everyone starts somewhere.

The mentality that this is a starting point is sad. This is going to sound cheesy, but people shouldn't learn to hack, they should hack to learn. Doing this doesn't involve any learning. Going out and learning to code in c, learning assembly, reverse engineering, and exploitation development is what you should do if you want to be a 133 hacker. If your into websec then learn PHP and MySQl, go on exploitdb and figure out what is the reason that wordpress themes are vulnerable, find some wordpress vulnerabilities, learn some advanced SQLi and not just memorize strings. Shell some sites, back-connect them, and try to root them. BreShie wrote a great tut on executing privilege escalation vulnerabilities.
