I’ve never used the term jologs to refer or describe a person, but I do know what it means. Benj’s comment pretty much sums up everything.

I didn’t know what jologs meant either.

So it pretty much means like “getto” here.

Jologs used to be more of a derogatory term to describe people with tastes that leaves more to be desired. This would apply to people who like the daytime soaps, cheesy show bands etc.

This term then branched out to the lovers and makers of kupaw (read: Slapshock and all their offsrpring) music, filipino ghetto (haha, oxymoron) rap music and novelty songs.

Later on, a sense of jologs pride surfaced thanks to the movie of the same title. People actually took charge of their own taste and became accountable for it in the “This is what I like and those who don’t like could do nothing about it”.

As time wore on, the term jologs became the new “lame”. Everything uncool, dysfunctional, improper etc. became jologs.

So at this point in time, term Jolog/s can mean a lot of things. I can either be a badge of honor, a light quip or an insult.

Haha, ang haba ng post ko. ang jolog tuloy. :p

I hope that helped.

ha! ha! Cool kids you have there. I bet they were to surprised to see this photo.

Jologs have been defined in so many ways. There was even a movie about it. I think it connotes being “baduy”.

Hi, Dine,
I like your title, Sexy Mom, and I think you are. Thanks for visiting my blog. Also, I am sure you will enjoy Music and Lyrics. I recommend it, especially if you are a Hugh Grant fan like me.
Will come back to read more.

people have come up with a various meanings of “jologs”, good, bad, so so, extremes, etc.

as to the extremes, it’s so sad. if that is “jologs”, i guess instead of frowning at them, someone has to take initiative in helping these young people get out of their being “jologs”, like giving them better constructive things to do, rehabilitating them when needed, so that when they grow up, they could have a positive contribution to society.

Here's the IMHO best definition of jologs (and in an academic POV too) from the Jolographer himself, Paolo Manalo - Being the True, the Good, the Beautiful and Definitive Meaning of Jologs.

Hi there. I was passing thru, by way of Nona. I learned something from your blog…the word jolog. Ha ha…kids really coin new words that the older ones, like me, would never know. I like that urban dictionary…thanks for that…I’ll keep coming here.

Anna and Belle, thanks! zherwin says is not necessarily baduy, but something more. Vince and Ann say yes, it means baduy and more…oh, well, now it gets confusing. even Kyels is confused now. even Mousey still does not get its meaning,

Toe and Dexie are laughing out loud, maybe, even rolling! yes, Dexie–we have loads of them shenanigans, BUT wait, they also have them, something like the un-sexy ones, the bulging waistlines, the eye bags…

and Vic, thanks for the guess.
