Manny Pacquiao’s got same-sex marriage figured out

According to Filipino boxing champ Manny Pacquiao, “God’s words first.” Specifically, “God only expects man and woman to be together and to be legally married, only if they so are in love with each other,” Pacquiao reportedly insisted. Who can argue with that? For people like Pacquiao, there is nothing to debate. His source-of-truth is…

Filipina Claims Her Grandmother was Anastasia Romanov, Inquirer’s Editor Shouts “Stop the Presses!”

As a rule I try not to pay too much attention to the general idiocy that characterizes the output of the Aquino Administration’s official newsletter, but every so often The Philippine Daily Inquirer will publish something that is just too stupid to ignore. Case in point, a two-part story published May 13 and 14, which…

Men in Black 3 makes brilliantly entertaining nonsense

I recently saw the trailer of the third and latest instalment of the Men in Black franchise in which Agent J (played by Will Smith) goes back in time to 1969 to help save the world from an alien invasion. Actor Josh Brolin plays a younger Agent K who, as the trailer hints at, exhibits…

Filipinos SMS millions into News Corp’s pockets for Jessica Sanchez

Indeed, American Idol Filipino-Mexican-American contestant Jessica Sanchez is a gifted singer. At just sixteen years old, she can belt out soulful with the power of a seasoned vocalist. Of course, she may never know what it is like to earn real stripes as an artist — the old-fashioned way — considering she has the backing…

T3: The Mindless Bravado of the Tulfo brothers

And so the flames of gossip are alight once more. People got to see for themselves the laughable incident at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) involving Ramon Tulfo, Raymart Santiago and Claudine Barretto; what seemed a perfect storm of bad moods and sheer coincidence took place, and we Filipinos once again stood witness to the…

Raymart, Claudine, Tulfo in excellent airport brawl

Bad breeding is at the heart of most issues that plague Philippine society and its culture of dysfunction. It is endemic at the macro level and ingrained at the micro levels — at the very threads that are woven into the very fabric of the national soul. This is evident in the manner with which…

Ridley Scott’s Prometheus follows tough acts

Ridley Scott’s Prometheus follows tough acts

I heard the new Ridley Scott film Prometheus is sort of a prequel to that other seminal Scott film Alien but will supposedly “explore its own mythology and ideas”. That’s just as well considering that what made Alien so great was in the way the nature of the beastly alien after which the movie was…

Miriam Quiambao on homosexuals and transgenders

Poor former beauty queen Miriam Quiambao (Miss Universe 1999 First Runner Up). She’s recently been swamped by a deluge of online “feedback” on a quip she made about the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community in a recent episode of ABS-CBN talk show “The Bottom Line” with TV personality Boy Abunda. According to Quiambao,…
