eyow pow... jzt wna ask a question pow
hahahaha ridiculous!
well I've been hearing about this new rising "fad", "byword", etcetera about jejemons (or is it jejemonz?).
Here are some of the things I know:
1. They text in a really funny way (like my opening sentence)
2. instead of hehehe or he3x to denote they're laughing they use jejeje (must be where the term jejemon came from)
3. The accessories they hang on their cellphone is heavier than the cellphone itself (and sometimes much more expensive)
4. They wear rainbow coloured caps which they don't even wear correctly... they just plop it on their heads
i spent about an hour listening to 2 of the guys working for my dad making jokes about this new clan, group, tribe of people called jejemon and i'm curious about it.

hi chipesterkhan,
Whenever I heard this term "jejemon", I really used to laugh. Perhaps, it is somehow irritating, however we should understand that it is part of the new generation.

I hate this way how the teenagers send their texts. This jejemons way of typing their texts or SMS, I find it hard to figure out what they are trying to say, it really gives me a headache. Before it was just abbreviating all the words and missing out the vowels in their texts, but now they replaces some letters with numbers and punctuation marks and having small and capital letters in their texts. Whew...I don't want to read those texts!

My officemates and I were just talking about this a few days ago. These jejemons are really irritating. They try so had to be cute that they end up irritating everyone around them. I hate them so much that I'm planning to join a jejemon bashing site on Facebook.

Here's what i've read:
"Basically with a low tolerance in correct punctuation, syntax and grammar. Jejemons are usually hated or hunted down by Jejebusters or the grammar nazi to eradicate their grammatical ways."

hmmmmm.... this jejemon was like a virus it continues spreading and spreading ....
and i dont think jejemons is not okay coz it will make the new generation stubborn about the words and its meaning and specially its spelling .. Sbe nga ng professor ko bukas makalawa my iba ng dictionary ang mga pilipino dahil s influensia ng jejemons n yan ..
peace s mga pro JEJEMONS.. hehe

i guess i'm one of those jejebusters. ahahahah... i didn't really care about them before but when they're finally doing it all over the net too, i was extremely irritated. i don't like seeing even the common text language in the WWW. i'm sorry that may be so inconsiderate of me but i don't really like it. i wasn't asking for proper english because i, myself won't be able to do that but i don't like them words distorted too much that i'm unable to comprehend things in a glance. i believe i'm a bit fast reader but i'm halted every time i see text messaging online. that's a little frustrating. hahahah... sorry. i don't care if the jejemons 'text' (i don't have a jejemon textmate,^_^) that way but i hope they spare the net.
