"Dissin'" is short for "dis-respecting".

Jeez - lighten up a little.

Someone had this line in a recent posting on a different subject:

I don't like the term "dissin'." I'm not even sure what it
means. But I'm sure the word it is meant to replace is a
very good, established English word. One that the majority of
the English-speaking world would understand. Unlike some
new-fangled connection of letters that just sounds like someone
never learned how to talk.

Maybe I need to watch more MTV. Maybe MTV is the Learning
Channel of the future.

End of tirade. Deep breath taken.
