Why we fall for the charms of psychopaths and narcissists

Many of us have been wondering about the appeal of those morose characters in the Twilight series of movies. For that matter, I’ve often wondered what is the allure behind vampires? Not only have the mythology of vampires been behind the success of the Twilight films, they seem to have endured as cultural artefacts since…

Kristin Stewart and Robert Pattinson reunited: will it last?

So what’s everybody’s verdict on the reuniting of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart? Is it even possible to continue having a relationship with someone who cheated on you? Perhaps money talks. Their new movie The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II, the last in the series of ‘Twilight’ vampire movies is a hit. Romance needs…

Darth Vader, meet Mickey Mouse

In the last 24 hours, I’ve been seeing lots of updates and memes being published on Facebook and Twitter timelines as well as mainstream media sites expressing one opinion or another about the recent purchase of Lucasfilm and, of course, its all-time epic Star Wars franchise by media giant Walt Disney. Many of these shoutouts…

‘God must really love the Filipinos’

Nowadays, it seems like the Roman Catholic Church is getting a long-overdue media boost, what with the recent canonisation of new Filipino saint Pedro Calungsod and the elevation to Cardinal of Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Tagle by Pope Benedict XVI. Filipinos in their renownedly short attention spans have lapped it all up. Nothing like good…

Posted on October 22, 2012October 22, 2012 By P. Farol 12 Comments on Feeling Triumphant Over “Sting’s Change of Manila Concert Venue”, What’s the Carbon Footprint on that?
Feeling Triumphant Over “Sting’s Change of Manila Concert Venue”, What’s the Carbon Footprint on that?

Tree hugging and smoking grass probably kills people’s brain cells. Proof of the fact are the greenie, artsie types now celebrating Sting’s decision to change the venue of his concert in Manila over the supposed “cutting” of tree by SM Baguio.  They failed miserably to consider that online activism and concerts use a lot of…

File Under Oddities: Sting Stung by Project Save 182, Moves Venue to Cuba-Ho

What is the connection between 182 trees in Baguio City and Sting changing concert venues, from Mall of Asia’s Arena to Araneta Coliseum in Cubao — or as I call it, Cuba-Ho? Man, great figuring from Sting.  If at all he is sympathizing with Project Save 182 over the sickly trees that SM balled up…

File Under Oddities: Project Save 182 Misleads Sting into Changing Concert Venue

Appearing to crow about what seems to be a victory of sorts, Project Save 182 lawyer Cheryl Daytec-Yangot posted on Facebook that Sting had moved his concert from the Mall of Asia to the Araneta Coliseum. Yangot claims to have written to Sting’s representatives and apparently misinformed them that SM had cut the trees that her…

Lucy Liu and a fundamental law of social media motion

Lucy Liu and a fundamental law of social media motion

It looks like the balat-sibuyas Pinoys have found a reason to play the “victim” and “target of racist remarks” again. This time, the target of their ire is Lucy Liu. People will remember Ms. Liu from movies such Charlie’s Angels, Kill Bill, and Kung Fu Panda, just to name a few. The quip that has…
