I heard the word jejemon three weeks ago. But I didn't really know what it is, until a TV show, Pinoy Big Brother gave it's definition, I know what you're thinking, but no I don't watch that shit. According to them a jejemon is someone who types in mixed uppercase and lowercase and uses punctuations to begin their sentences and build their words. They are easily identified because they dress in a weird manner-mixture of pinoy fashion, modern, hiphop and goth, and they are notorious bloggers and texters.
Well, I have been receiving a lot of text messages from them since last year, but they weren't called jejemons before, and nobody really had any problems with them. What surprises me is people today are more concerned about their existence than the elections. I don't have the correct figures. But I am certain that people in society fears that this group might cause trouble. Specially parents and teachers. In the net, they are always the center of attention. A facebook group ''Go'tta Kill Them All'' has thousands of members. In forums there are always haters and pro-sympathisers fighting and cursing each other. And there are bloggers who tries to make fun of them, visit this sites to see what I mean. lhttp://www.thepoc.net/thepoc-features/buhay-pinoy/buhay-pinoy-features/5930-move-over-jologs-here-comes-jejemon.htm. Now they even have their own site and they are now selling a software called the ''jejemon translator'', go to http://jejemon.i.ph. Many believes that this is just a fad that teenagers follows, and that they'll eventually forget about this when they grow up and really knows who they are. But I believe that this is a social movement that will stay for generations to come. C'mmon people let's just accept them, they are just looking for a way to express themselves.
