Formerly known as weak chat it is an expression used to describe poor banter. It derives from the overuse of the expression weak chat by John Sanigar and hence has taken on his name as John Chat. First coined on 16/06/2010 by HarryPreston esquire.
Having an online chat with someone that would be considered rude, nasty or mean if it were in person or overheard by strangers or the people who are being spoken about, but the buffer of being online softens it. Frequently bitchy, catty or petty, it is nevertheless entertaining as hell to the participants, who wonder why they are never this funny when they are in the same room.
"I wonder if their ears are burning? I just got done having a particularly good sarcasti-chat with Carlo on Facebook, where we trashed everyone we knew. I haven't laughed that much in ages. I'm TERRIBLE."
When using a messaging service like text or chat, a person accidentally sends a message to the wrong person (usually the last person texted, but not the person that the message was intended for).

My text: Nice mis-chat.
When you're belting tunes and hitting notes with your choir buddies but you gotta sneak in that little convo about what the bonus question on the U.S. History test was all about during third period and also, does Hannah really think she's getting the solo for next month's recital? Choir chat.
