I saw this wonderful newsclip on CNN just today and immediately thought, “we should have that in Quezon City!“ Think about it… the Quezon City Government buying cheap, Brazilian-made bicycles (the frames of which are made from recycled PET bottles), instead of those clunky, rusty-after-one-week China-made ones, and assign these to local government employees (read:… [Read more…]

… your breakfast looks like this. Bad pungsoy, I know. Haaays… it must the impeachment hearings that’s getting me down. Kelan ba talaga matatapos yun? There are so many other (more pressing) things to do.

I really don’t understand why people persist in using dangerous firecrackers (not to mention indiscriminately firing guns) to celebrate New Year. Haven’t they heard of the principle of diminishing returns?! Think about it, on the one hand you have “fun, noise, lights, celebration, tradition,” but on the other, you have “expenses, fires, accidents, toxic fumes,… [Read more…]

Di ko lang kasi ma-gets yung medyo OA na reaction ng National Historical Institute everytime na “kakaiba” yung nagiging rendition sa Lupang Hinirang ng mga Pinoy singers sa tuwing may laban si Pacquiao. Apparently, di feel ng mga taga-NHI kapag may bumibirit… nagfa-falsetto… nagra-rap… o nagbabago sa ritmo ng ating pambansang awit. Bakit? Kasi may batas… [Read more…]

Bangkok (or a great part of it) has been underwater for more than a month already and will, according to their government, remain so for a few more weeks pa. Incredible. And this after they had just installed a massive flood-control system. Ang siste… paano kaya tayo? We don’t have the same flood-control infrastructure as them. Mas… [Read more…]

Napansin ko kasi na andaming newspaper ads touting the efficacy of various slimming salons and gyms and whatnots in transforming the current fat, out-of-shape and non-confident you into the fit, fab and sexy person that you really are. And they try to convince you by showing “before” and “after” shots of their choice clients. OK.… [Read more…]

Thank god that some people have way too much time on their hands! Otherwise, masterpieces of graphical wit like this one will be far and very few in between. More! More! Hehehehe…

For a supposedly “cute” trend, this one disturbs me on so many levels. Safe ba talaga sa aso yung pag-pintura sa kanya ng Amo niya? Gusto ba niyang magmukhang Panda imbes na Aso? At pinaka-mahalaga… hindi ba siya nagiging katawa-tawa sa kapwa niya Aso? PETA… PAWS… what say you?!

When I first heard idol Noel Cabangon’s song, “Mabuting Pilipino,” playing on the radio about 2 weeks ago, my first reaction was, “OK, may isa na namang kanta about an impossible dream — na balang-araw ay magiging matino din ang mga Pinoy.” I admit, that’s my usual sarcastic self talking. But can you really blame… [Read more…]

I got these a few days after the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster… promo kasi sa isang malaking mall sa Makati. Buy One Take One daw. So, being a person of sound mind and rational behavior, tinanong ko agad yung tindera, “‘Teh, may radiation ba ito ng Fukushima?“ Sagot niya in all confidence and conviction, “Naku wala… [Read more…]
