A Culture Of Self-Importance: Another Sign Of Immaturity In The SONA

So I’ve said what I needed to say about President Aquino and how immature I think he is. I also remember telling you guys about the inherent immaturity in Pinoy culture itself. However, now that I have time to think about all of it, I come to realize that one of the worst products of…

Kung hindi ninyo nakakalimutan, sa bansa ng Greece, ang tingin lang sa atin nila doon ay mga katulong tayo. Hindi rin natin maitatanggi na merong mga bansa na ang tingin lang…

Pinoys Really Need to Learn the Meaning of Respect

Once, while sitting down with a young friend, I was asked why other nationalities have so little respect for Filipinos. He went on to note how sad he was that the Philippines has become a laughing stock of the international community. Foreigners only see Filipinos as either thieves or whores and won’t accept a person’s…

Public Service Announcement For This Storm Season

Hello again everyone, this is a public service announcement from your favorite socio-politico-cultural commentary website. We don’t normally do this, at least as far as I know, but since it’s quite obvious that we’re in for plenty of rain and other weather anomalies this rainy season, I think that you need to read some of…

Fatal pollution: ‘Being in EDSA every day is as dangerous as smoking’ – atmosphere expert

Apparently CNN Philippines considers this “news” — maybe because this time, an expert in the field of atmospheric physics said it: people exposed to pollution along EDSA could be at high risk of cancer. According to Dr. Gerry Bagtasa who is head of the Bagtasa Atmospheric Physics Laboratory of the Institute of Environmental Science and…

Aerial photo of monstrous urban blight in Manila shocks Filipinos!

This aerial photo of what could be a suburb of Metro Manila made desolate by a wilderness of urban shanties as far as the eye could see has been making the social media rounds over the weekend. The first I came across it was on a Sunday morning post on the Get Real Philippines Community…

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…
