JEJEMON Invasion

“JEJEMON” I don't like them nor hate them. But I think jejemon was just a fad. We don't have to discriminate or give pessimistic comments about them. They have their own life and sure we have our own. And it's our choice if we want to be with them or just let them exist or hate them. But the bottom line is why are so many Filipino affected with this fad to the point of blogging something awful about our country's education, in our country's people. May be for you they are nonsense but they are who they are. Accept the fact. As Rain Bojangles says, “If they can't swallow facts, let them eat fiction.”
The definition I search over the internet to clear my mind from that jejemon invasion

A. "Jejemon" is an example of a coined word which does not contain a clear meaning in the Filipino language. An expression that anyone can use as statement filler. This can be considered as an emerging pop culture with regard to language development and dynamicity. This is also what we call the Popularly Modernized Language (PML)" which is in existence and could die easily if no one will use it.

B.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.

CAUTION: THESE INDIVIDUALS ARE BREEDING! THEY CAN BE SEEN WRECKING GRAMMATICAL HAVOC ON FACEBOOK TOO!

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.
