Cosmic Horror And The Philippines: Are They Incompatible?

Posted on April 22, 2015 By Grimwald 13 Comments on Cosmic Horror And The Philippines: Are They Incompatible?
Cosmic Horror And The Philippines: Are They Incompatible?

I am a big lover of horror stories. Even as a young boy, I was always fascinated by stories of ghouls and goblins. During the Halloween season, I was both excited and fearful when the evening news featured some interesting horror stories. However, while I was, still am and probably always will be a fan…

3 Steps Towards Progress That Most Pinoys Find Too Difficult To Implement

3 Steps Towards Progress That Most Pinoys Find Too Difficult To Implement

The Philippines is a country with great potential, I will not deny that. However, I will go on to note that time and time again we fail to make anything out of these potentials and continue to flounder about as a failed nation. No matter how skilled our athletes, regardless of how beautiful our beauty queens…

A Nation Divided, A People in Danger

A Nation Divided, A People in Danger

After the hullabaloo about the Yaya Meal incident (all credit goes to the author of said articles, Willyn Trabajador and Kate Natividad, respectively), I think it’s time we look at the issue from a wider angle. As I see it, just like our inability to appreciate silence and listen to what others have to say, this…

And the prostitution just goes on and on…

And the prostitution just goes on and on…

The futility of demanding an apology and justice mounted, as soon as a fall guy was thrown in the Mamasapano “mis-encounter” script during the February 2015 Senate hearing. I was given no other choice but to take consolation in History,  that History will eventually testify unkindly to those who hide the truth, much like how Aguinaldo…

Josie Rizal and Her Detractors: Another Case of Pinoy Stupidity

Josie Rizal and Her Detractors: Another Case of Pinoy Stupidity

Ladies and gentlemen, I have always been big on video games. I’ve played a lot of games over the years and I’m about as hardcore as you can get when it comes to being a gamer. I play all day, all night and in between. Right now, I’m currently playing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and…

Why Does Everything Need to be Personal?

Posted on April 6, 2015 By Grimwald 6 Comments on Why Does Everything Need to be Personal?
Why Does Everything Need to be Personal?

I think that asides from over-emotionalism and over-romanticism, I think that one of the greatest attitude issues that Pinoys have is their tendency to take everything personally. Yes, that’s right, majority of Pinoys are simply too caught up in their own personal issues to be able to differentiate what is essential and what is not….

Josie Rizal delivers Pinoy arnis on Tekken!

Josie Rizal delivers Pinoy arnis on Tekken!

Fine, come up with a Pinoy Tekken character and name her “Josie Rizal”. What I don’t get is the part where she cries whenever she wins a fight. What’s up with that?? It’s easy to see that Josie is a caricature of Filipino culture. So you get to wondering if the whole crying bit is…

Authority Figures in the Philippines And Why They Fail to Make Positive Changes

Posted on March 30, 2015 By Grimwald 3 Comments on Authority Figures in the Philippines And Why They Fail to Make Positive Changes
Authority Figures in the Philippines And Why They Fail to Make Positive Changes

After a lot of observation regarding the typical behavior of higher-up Pinoys, I have come to realize that an education doesn’t always equal intelligence or maturity. On the contrary, an ill-gotten education (one that has been gained through personal favors or bribes) does more harm to a person than good. It goes without saying that being…
