Its just slang talk, for example wasn't instead of was not or It's instead of it is. Plus is so much easier to say coaster

Wasn't and it's are not slang words, nor is coaster. Just a shortened formed that can be recognized to it's full term when spoken part of it, hence coaster.

it's simple really. you have a choice between 2 syllables or 4...being lazy, i would rather go with 2 [lol] because it's easier to say. and, as the edge said, it's also a form of slang [pshades]
