November 13, 2015 benign0 17 Comments

It’s simple, really. Be considerate and observe good manners, Mister President. It’s stuff we all got taught in kindergarten. It’s time to revisit good ol’ Insulares breeding in times when we are hosting important guests. So here is the first and probably most important one: Less talk about your mother. I mean, come on, would…

Que horror! President Noynoy Aquino was not invited to the Typhoon Yolanda commemoration!

November 12, 2015November 12, 2015 FallenAngel 8 Comments

Actually, he was. Malacañang talking head Sonny Coloma, of course, would like us to believe that there was no invitation, therefore BS Aquino was not able to attend. Parang patampo pa nga ata eh. (It was almost like he was pouting that there was no invitation.) Instead, on that day, November 8, BS Aquino was…
