Naguguluhan ka na ba sa ka-text mo? O di kaya'y hindi mo na maintindihan ang mga nababasa mong GM (Group Message) na nare-receive mo? Pwest, isa yan sa malaking issue na kinakaharap ng mga Kabataang Pinoy. Ang pagbuo na isang tao na pinahihirapan ang sarili sa pag-type ng words na overspelled at unappropriate ang mga letrang ginagamit. Sila ay tinatawag na mga JEJEMONS.
Anu ba ang kahulugan ng JEJEMON?
" Sila yung mga timang sa text. Pinapahirapan nila yung mga katext nila. Yung "mwah" may letter H, may letter Z. Naging "MUAHGZ". Tapos yung tawa nila, "jejeje". Ang saya-saya! jejejeje!!!" - Vice Ganda
According to my very own research, ganito ang ibig sabihin ng salitang JEJEMON:
1) Usually seen around social networking sites such as Friendster and Multiply, jejemons are individuals with low IQs who spread around their idiocy on the web by tYpFing LyK diZS jejejeje, making all people viewing their profile raise their eyebrows out of annoyance. Normal people like you and me must take a Bachelor of Arts in Jejetyping in order to understand said individuals, as deciphering their text would cause a lot of frustration and hair pulling.
2) Jejemons are not just confined to trying-hard Filipino gangsters and emos. A Jejemon can also include a variety of Latino-Hispanic fags who enjoy typing "jejejejeje" in a wider context, much to the disdain of their opponents in an internet MMORPG game such as Ragnarok and DOTA.
3) Basically anyone 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.
4) People with very LOW IQ. A person that destroys the morale of language in any typing media like internet,cellphones...etc.
5) The derrogative term used for a certain categorized kind of people.They type JEJEJE or JEJEJE when they want to express laughing in written words, which happen more than often. This is why we call them jejes.
TERMINOLOGY:
1. Jejebusters - A group of internet grammar vigilantes, typically Filipinos, dedicating their internet lives towards the eradication of jejetyping and jejemon existence. Having dangerous links to the grammar nazi, jejebusters enjoy humiliating a jejemon by posting his/her profile on a social networking site, while everyone on the internet laughs, causing unwarranted embarrassment towards the individual caught jejetyping.
Hey jejebusters! I caught another jejemon! LOL, so funny!
2. Jejetyping
1. a form of typing used by jejemons to communicate with one another.
2. one way of abusing your computer keyboard's caps lock and shift buttons.
3. one way of butchering the Filipino language by typing in unnecessary letters in Filipino words and typing them in a way that only jejemons or people who have studied jejetyping as a major (or a minor maybe) back in college to understand how these kind of peoples communicate in their own "special" language.
3. Jejeje - Similar to hehehe but more like a naughty chuckle coming from the back of your throat. For instance, used while plotting an evil plan. In a big place by the name of cyberland.. hehehe is also known as jejeje. the H's are replaced by J's. jejeje is used when you laugh.
4. Jejedex - Portmanteau of the words: Jejemon and Index, it is a device used by most filipinos to distinguish certain specific characteristics among Jejemons.
5. Jejaje - jejaje means hehahe!! :D which is said when someone laughs jejejeje
6. Jejemitis - An infectious disease caused by the jejevirus. The disease is contagious. People with low IQ's and have poor skills in spelling are the most susceptible group. This disease is already endemic in some social networks such as friendster. The disease currently spreading to other social networks such as Facebook. Unless stopped, this disease will attain the status of Social Network Pandemic. People with the disease are called jejemons.

SYMPTOMS OF BEING A JEJEMON :
1.) Excessive use of Sticky Caps - Madalas na yan makikita sa mga Social Sites tulad ng Friendster,Facebook at kahit na sa texting. Palakihan pa ata ng letra ang nilalagay dun. Hay naku. magugulo talga ang buhay ng mga yun. Here's an example of an excessive use of sticky caps:
"miSzMaldiTahh111: EoW pFuOh!"
2.) Replacement of H by J to denote laughter such as jeje and jaja - Excuse me lang sa mga Latino and Latina friends out there, hindi po kayo apektado dito kasi understood naman na ang pronunciation ng letter J nyo ay katunog ng letter H. Sa mga kababayan ko dyan sa Pinas, wag nyo naman masyadong karirin ang paggamit ng letter J sa pagtawa pa lang. Naiintindihan ko naman ang sitwasyon ninyo. Sana naman maawa din kayo sa mga banyaga kasi nakakahiya naman sa kanila. Tino-tolerate nyo na ang ganoong klase ng pagtawa. Madami tuloy ang hindi makaintindi sa sinasabi nyo. Yun lang,piangtatanggol ko lang yung mga apektado dyan. Para fair, kung tatawa kayo,huminga kayo, ok? hehehe not jejeje.
3.) Spelling which is hard to comprehend - Ayan! Kaya kayo mahina sa spelling kasi panay dagdag-bawas sa mga letters. Kahit ako din, ganun ako mag-text o mag-type. Pero kung gagawa ako ng blogs, I will make sure na walng shortcut o kahit mga stick caps at misspelled words ang mga bina-blog ko. Kakahiya naman,nagbla-blog ka na nga,mali naman ang spelling mo. Hay naku! Konting ingat lang sa pagte-text kung ayaw mong masabihang JEJEMON ka. OK? *wink
4.) Kung manamit sila ay parang Gangster na - Bakit kaya hindi sinama to? Ang fashion trends ng isang Jejemon ay mahilig sila sa mga sumbrero, scarf (handkerchiefs), mga naka-shorts, black t-shirt,etc. Pang-yabang lang sa mga friends nila. Yun lang ang pagkakaintindi ko.
5.)Their names are also often begun with "El" then followed with a random spanish or portuguese word - For example,maldita siya,fashionista,devil type, o kung anu-ano pa. Kaya magulo di ba? Ayoko na ngang pag-usapan ang mga codename na yan at baka mas lalo pa akong mabaliw. Dapat kasi,simple pero may kahulugan din. Tama ba? hehehe
6.) When the disease is already at later stages, victims tend to become posers - Tama! Kaya may nagsisilabasang mga profile na ang akala nila,yung taong yun ang kinikilala mong friend sa FB. Just way back to what happened to Kuya Rod's personal account on FS before. Madami na siyang haters dahil wala lang,trip lang ata nilang manggulo. Pero ngayon,ipagtatanggol ko si Kuya this time. Dun sa mga posers,hackers and whatever who you are, wag nyo nang pakealaman ang tao. Kung ayaw mo sa kanya,pake niya sa'yo. Malaking issue na din yan sa amin na hindi na natapos at mas lalo pang nadagdagan. Kaya nagpapasalamat din ako sa mga anti-jeje na pinapairal ang pagiging simpleng tao. Simple lang naman ang gusto namin, maging masaya ang buhay niyo sa tamang paraan. OK? ^_^
SOLUTION :
1. Tulungan natin sila maging simple.
2. Always look at your Dictionary.
3. Stay away from jejemons.
4. If you are an educated person,act like a real person who studied very hard.
5. Speak English properly.
6. Spell th words correctly.
Hay naku! Sana matapos na ang isyu tungkol sa mga taong jejemon. Sana turuan natin sila ng tama at tratuhin din natin sila bilang tao din. Lahat din naman sila,may puso,isip at damdamin din. Yun lang!
