U killed me m8!

LoL, pls do not use these slangs lyk u did above,,, a few people like SteveD will understand otherwise u'll be called Che Nkapa :)
 
Nadhani hii slang tuiache kwa wanaochat, ambao mtu anakuuliza na anasubiri jibu hapo hapo, hivyo slang inasaidia kuokoa muda wa kutype sentensi ndefu ndefu. Humu JF tuandike vizuri tu, kwani hatuchat humu, mtu unaweza ukweka post, ukaondoka zako (kama hutumii mobile) na baadaye ukakuta watu wamechangia bila hata ya kukuhitaji.

Nahofia slang ikiingia humu watu tutaachana gizani, na matokeo yake tutatumia muda mwingi kujifunza tafsiri badala ya kuchangia hoja, na hata ujumbe utakuwa hauwafikii walengwa hasa mafisadi.

Najua zipo mbili tatu humu kama vile LOL na BTW, lakini binafsi sipendi ziongezeke sana.

10x !!!
