Default Slang over the top

This is a text message I just got.

-sup dun? holla n spit at me. im ghost-

Im imagining this text being sent to the wrong recipient. Would they be able to decode it? Its like ghetto encription.
Im making myself laugh

Ghost

Hmmm... SMS. The simple and cheap means of communication.

Interesting read

ok i think ive got it. I THINK it says

Sup!?(not sure about the dun) call me, we'll talk. Im out

Ghost being a spirit of a dead person, dead being gone, gone being out.

YES this is WAY too much slang, ebonics is 1 thing.....making up words on ur own is totally different.

Yes i have too much time on my hands, & probably shouldnt know what it says anyway.

Okay!!!
Dun is mainly meant as homeboy or friend.
Holla N Spit at me.
Write or call means Holla
Spit means the same thing.
Now honestly do you people have anything else better to do then make fun of people who speak differently then you?
