Slang is like a language which is completely informal but is popular because of its high usage.
Like a common slang is " Oh fish" that is when you did something terribly wrong.
Also there are slangs in every language. So there is nothing wrong about them.
have a nice day!

Yes,it's popular so I'm interested in it.But most of the time I can't understand the slangs,so confused some times.

This happens all the time when we learn a new language but ultimately with experience we get a hold of this..

Slang isn't necesseraly rudeness, it is if you use informal words and phrases that are not part of your language (or dialect).
There is a quite a lot of rude slang though. English isn't my first language, and for some reason, most of the words I've picked up that can be considered slang words are rude. Possibly too rude to be posted on mylot *hehe*
