senate + advertising + office shit sub cult
Random small talk that happened a few days ago...
ME: O, saan ka pupunta?
CO-WORKER: Sa "senate."
ME: Waw, manonood ka ng impeachment... wild!"
CW: Hindi, pupunta ako sa "senate" Optimedia.
ME: Aaaah... sa ZENITH Optimedia!
unsubcultured man of the senate impeachment trial... SEN LITO LAPID
His simple speech showed how he is "different" from all those grandstanding senators who used "big words" to answer why CJ Corona was guilty.
Mr. Lito Lapid, you are UNSUBCULTURED.
And for that, you have my respect.
His speech...
Kasamahan kong senador-judge, prosecution, at depensa, sa ating mga kababayang nanunuod at nakikinig sa TV at radio. Inuulit ko magandang hapon po sa inyong lahat.
Alam niyo po, wala naman akong speech dito, wala po akong dala. Ang mga kasamahan ko dito, pag pinasok sa isip nila, dadalhin sa bibig at maganda na ang sasabihin.
Bilang high school graduate po, marahil iniisip ng ating mga kababayan: “Anong sasabihin ni Lito Lapid na hindi marunong mag-inggles, na hindi maalam sa batas? Ano kaya ang magiging desisyon?”
Didisisyunan po ang katas-taasang hukom na isang high school graduate lang at taga-probinsya ng Pampanga.
Napakinggan ko po ang depensa. Siguro purihin po natin ang depensa. Napakagaling nila sa mga nakakaintindi ng abugasya. Purihin rin po natin ang prosecuton, sa paghanap ng ebidensiya. Nakinig po ako sa bawat ebisensiyang inihain nila dito. Lalung lalo na kay Cong. Farinas. Ang prinisenta niya kahapon dito, para sakin po, malinaw na malinaw na na si CJ Corona ay lumabag sa batas.
Siya mismo inamin niya na may $2.4 million at P80 million na bank account. Yun po siguro hindi na kasinungalin yun, yun po ay totoo na.
Nagpiprisinta po ako dito hindi bilang abugasya. Hindi po ako pwedeng magsalita ng Republic Act dahil hindi maniniwala ang tao sakin. Hindi po ako nagmamarunong dito. Ang ginagamit ko lang po ay konsensya. Representate ako ng masa na hindi nakapag-aral, hindi marunong mag-inggles, walang alam sa batas.
Kaya noon pong nagsasalita si Chief Justice Corona, nagsusumbong sa taumbayan, awang-awa po ako sa kanya.
Akala ko totoo ang sinasabi niya. Hindi pala.
Mas pinaniwalaan ko pa si Cong. Farinas noong nag-Powerpoint dito.
Ngayon ang sinasabi niya, dyan sa isang pizza pie – hindi totoo yan na may 82 akong account. Siguro kung ako ho, ang pagbabasehan ko: Kung isandaang basong tubig nialagay sa apat na drum lang ang kanyang account…
Naawa po ako sa kanya dahil naiintindihan ko po kung anong damdamin niya at ng kanyang
pamilya. Naranasan ko rin po yan.
At sana sa pagkakataong ito, pasasalamatan ko siya dahil noong pangalawa kong panalo bilang senador, sa kanya ako nanumpa bilang senador.
Pasensya na po. Pasensya na po. Ang hatol ko sa inyo, guilty.

nba basketball sub cult
Let me start by saying that I AM NOT A FAN OF THE SAN ANTONIO SPURS.
You see, I am one of those people who believe in the MISCONCEPTION that they play boring basketball. Well, they don't. BUT, after game 1... after Coach Greg Popovich's famous quote... and I think this will be the quote of the year in the NBA.. I now have new found respect for the team. I AM STILL NOT A FAN. But I wouldn't mind if they win another NBA ring... specially if they play against those arrogant babies, the Miami Heat.
Here's the famous quote...
“Good passes. Shoot with confidence. Give me some nasty.”
Which has spawned a rallying cry and a T-shirt...
Like it or not, that line made the perceived-as-boring Spurs COOL.

NBA + philippine politics sub cult
The word of the day is PEACH.
In PEACH... ImPEACHed
NOTE: To those who are NBA/basketball unsubcultured, the guy on the left is Chris Bosh of the Miami Heat. He is currently injured and today, during their game against the Boston Celtics, he wore PEACH colored pants. Ahahaha wild.

advertising + futbol sub cult
Congrats to my workmates [Balls-abscbn] for winning their first ADOBO CUP championship. Penalty kicks pa.
how to get to fields avenue, a.k.a. the angeles city red light district sub cult...
If you're inside Clark, follow the "Friendship" route. Of course this Friendship thing means a lot more than just "friendship" when you're in Angeles. |
Just follow the road and you'll see bars like this. Where you get your RED LIGHT therapy. |
Yeah, you'll probably need this. |
And here they are... the bar girls waiting for their KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR. They could be Arab, Korean, Jap, Indian, etc... |
But the stereotype is old, retiring white man with lots of moolah to burn and looking for a young brown woman [and her family] to marry. |
artsy fartsy sub cult
Ito ang tinatawag na "impromptu installation art"
[Ilagay lang ang bisikleta sa pader na may graffiti ekek, art na!]
karera ng kabayo + santacruzan sa maynila...
Sunday. My usual Manila bike route. Saw a horse and carriage race plus a santacruzan. Astig.
Ito ang drag racing ng mga kabayo!
Ito naman ang drag racing ng mga Sagala at Matrona sa Santacruzan...
Dati ang daming skume-skateboard dito. Tapos lately, nagka-basketball court. Na-kickout kaya yung mga skater boy?

Missed the sunset. Masyado ako natagalan ang paikotikot sa Intramuros. |
