5 Big Reasons Why I Think Lea Salonga Is Right

Posted on June 16, 2015June 16, 2015 By Grimwald 40 Comments on 5 Big Reasons Why I Think Lea Salonga Is Right

Again, I find myself forced to respond to the many disappointing criticisms leveled against Ms. Lea Salonga as written here in this article by Kate Natividad. Also, I’d like to congratulate both Kate for defending Ms. Salonga and the commenter Mr. Dale Gozar for his in-depth comment on the Pinoy condition and why we can…

To all Lea Salonga bashers: Get Real, the Phlippines did not gain independence in 1898!

To all Lea Salonga bashers: Get Real, the Phlippines did not gain independence in 1898!

So now Lea Salonga is suddenly labelled talangka (crab-like) because of her supposedly anti-Pinoy tweet. The trouble with Filipino international superstar Lea Salonga is that she is tweeting to a bobo audience. She may have millions of followers but that number is more a case of quantity and less of quality. But I don’t really…

Please Support ‘Kardong Kalabaw’ for the 2016 Presidential Election

Please Support ‘Kardong Kalabaw’ for the 2016 Presidential Election

Disclaimer: This is another of my parody articles. This is essentially a dedication to commenter Hyden007Toro and his carabao Kardong Kalabaw. While this is not true like all the other parody articles I’ve written, it’s one that I wish was true. Ladies and gentlemen, in observance of this year’s Philippine independence day and the oncoming approach of the 2016…

Filipino Culture and Its Loser Mentality

Posted on June 12, 2015June 12, 2015 By Grimwald 18 Comments on Filipino Culture and Its Loser Mentality
Filipino Culture and Its Loser Mentality

Actually, I’m supposed to be working on the 9th chapter of Deep but again, I find myself writing another article, this time about the recent failure of our representatives in the SEA Games, particularly the diving competition. Heck, I even got an imitator in one of the commentaries. I don’t know if I should be flattered or…

Happy and independent, is the Filipino?

Happy and independent, is the Filipino?

How timely! A triumphant Fil-Am donning the PH flag-at-war during the 28th SEA Games in Singapore! Whoever stitched that on, must have been inspired by the honest mistake of the website of the Office of the President’s in May 2011! Ah this “wardrobe malfunction” just makes me go on a throwback on a May 2011…

Is being ‘unprepared’ to compete in an international sporting event a valid excuse to fail?

Posted on June 11, 2015 By Kate Natividad 59 Comments on Is being ‘unprepared’ to compete in an international sporting event a valid excuse to fail?
Is being ‘unprepared’ to compete in an international sporting event a valid excuse to fail?

‘Not being prepared’ is not an excuse. What it is is a reason for failure, no more no less. And, yes, the failure of Filipino divers John Elmerson Fabriga and John David Pahoyo in this year’s Southeast Asian Games is a failure of ALL Filipinos. There is no other way to describe the fielding of…

Does Grace Poe really know what good quality is if her choice for VP is Chiz Escudero?

Does Grace Poe really know what good quality is if her choice for VP is Chiz Escudero?

Though still “officially undecided” to run for the Presidency in 2016, Sen. Grace Poe (Grace) says that there are some quarters that are pushing for a “Poe-Chiz” tandem and that if she does decide to run, she prefers Sen. Francis Escudero (Chiz) to be her running mate. While a team-up between Grace and Chiz seems…

Alternative Media (Part 9): The Dark Knight – Hacking the Justice System

Posted on June 10, 2015June 10, 2015 By Grimwald 10 Comments on Alternative Media (Part 9): The Dark Knight – Hacking the Justice System
Alternative Media (Part 9): The Dark Knight – Hacking the Justice System

The Dark Knight, the second film in The Dark Knight trilogy by Christopher Nolan is probably one of my favorite superhero movies. Of course, the film has indeed gained considerable popularity thanks to the performances of its actors like Christian Bale, Aaron Eckhart, Michael Caine, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Morgan Freeman and, of course, the late Heath Ledger. However,…
