jejemon.com

I thought all along that you need to have log in credentials to be able to chat with a jejemon. I was wrong. Anyway, I am not a fan nor I want to be one of them. I am also not a hater nor a lover. Let us just say that I respect their individuality.

My previous entry, let's face it, lacks soul. It was a product of rushing. There was no deadline. I was in front of the computer and I just want to write something--it's boredom, I guess.

Enough with the excuses!LOL


As promised, I tried to invade a not-so-familiar community (I think they are already a community) and I got a result. It was very short conversation because I did not know what to say. Above is a screenshot. I edited his picture and name, of course. He is 15, he described himself as "mabait and pogi" (kind-hearted and handsome) and he really did not use much of the jeje-language--if you can call it as such. I was the one using the jeje-language because I was using their translator which is called the Jologs-inator.

There was no need for me to create a jejename because I was able to chat without one. There is a panel on the right side of their site where you can see jejemons who are logged in and you can chat with them right away. Since I do not have a jejename, I was dubbed anon--that is probably for unknown. Funny.

I was actually sharing this experience with a friend and he told me that some local news reporters/researcher who are gay, call each other jejekla. We were even joking about what we can call a jejemon specialist--a jejeologist. Study of jejemons--jejeology (why do we even need to study them in the first place), a Mommy jejemon--jejemom (Jesus, bless your kids!), a techie jejemon--jejetechie. Now, what if a jejemon works in a call center, can we call him a jejecall then? That does not sound politically right...hahaha
