unsubcultured opinion

Scoring an own goal...

Sabi niya wala na daw wang-wang.

If DC superheroes had Twitter or Facebook, their status messages would probably look like these...

unsubcultured world cup question

Will the hand of God help his team beat Germany?



Or will fate flash him a dirty finger?



Argentina vs Germany. Tomorrow at 10pm. PATAYAN NA!!!

do unsubcultured people dance?

Nope. But when they do it's because they're totally smashed. And they only have one move. Two fingers up, sway to the beat hiphop style. Just the fingers. And a bit of the legs. Yun lang.

historians sub cult

Some of the things I learned from being a History Channel geek...



[in random order]
  • In the battle of Manila during WW2, AMERICANS BOMBED JAPANESE POSITIONS EVEN IF THEY KNEW THAT MANY FILIPINOS WILL BE CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE. As a result, thousands of Filipinos died along with the Japanese. I think the word for that is COLLATERAL DAMAGE. Some liberators. Hmpf.
  • Henry VIII was one of the world's biggest ARSEHOLES.












  • One of the catalysts for the start of the HIPPIE movement was the invention of LSD. And even if the movement has died, it's spirit is still alive, ironically, through the internet and the personal computer. They were the brainchild of hippies.
  • In WW2, Cebuano guerillas were able to retrieve some Japanese documents in a raid. They then sent it to the Americans. When translated, it was about Japanese ship movements in the Pacific. Using these documents, the Americans were able to beat the Japs in sea battles. See... PINOYS!!! Where would those fuckers be without us?
  • In olden times, a number of Filipino Muslim pirates were called "raiders of the Sulu Sea" because they attacked villages and sold their hostages to slavery. When you compare it to today's Abu Sayyaf, you see that nothing has changed.
  • Even if the Roman Empire lasted for a long time, they weren't always that mighty. There were sometimes beaten by small tribes in certain battles... like for example, a Celtic [not the NBA team] tribe led by a woman which name escapes me at the moment. Hannibal [not "the cannibal Lecter"] kicked their asses a lot. But for some reason, never attacked Rome.

  • Most of Moses moves to escape from the Egyptians were actually precise military tactics. He was more of a military leader than a religious one. So was Joshua.
  • The enemies of the 300 Spartans don't look like the clowns we see in the movie 300.

  • The Mayan calendar and Nostradamus are correct. The world will end in 2012.

folk + protest music sub cult



WEDNESDAY, JUNE 30, 2010. I thoroughly enjoyed the noon concert of Noel Cabangon today. It was even on all the local channels... he had all star front acts like Ogie Alcasid, Gary V, Regine Velasquez, Apo, The Madrigal Singers... Charice even opened with the national anthem... he played to a packed house, many of them in yellow... plus his special guests were the who's who of Philippine politics and showbiz, including some guy named Baby James. Is this why it's a holiday today? Whatever it is, GREAT CONCERT MR. CABANGON... YOU ROCK [or you folk]!!!

www sub cult

According to alexa.com, a site that ranks top sites worldwide...

tipidpc.com is the 79th most visited website in the phils.

Manilatonight.com is ranked 371st.

Does this mean there are more geeks than horny people in this country?

michael jackson + francism fan club sub cult

In honor of the first death anniv of the King of Pop, I'm rehashing my Facebook status message on the day he died...



FRANCISM: Welcome to the great hood in the sky my soul brotha!

MICHAELJ: Soul brother? But you're not black, you're brown.

FRANCISM: Hey, you ain't black too... you're white.

this unsubcultured poser thinks this could be the best world cup ever

Think about it...

The rising east... South Korea and the land of the rising sons of football reaching the round of 16...



Giant upsets... Spain losing to the Swiss... Germany losing a game... France losing to Mexico and Bafana Bafana [eventually, getting booted out].... and the biggest one - upstart Slovakia blast the defending champions Italy in one hell of a match [I should have watched that game in bar instead of "resting" at home damn it!]



Dramatic games... Portugal nuking North Korea, 7-0... Donovan's last gasp goal that catapulted USA [whaaat, they have a football team? what next, cricket?] to the next round... an Argentine player's hat trick... etc...



BUT... the good always comes with the bad. Two words. REFEREES. VUVUZELA.

Yeah, nothing's perfect, right?!

wimbledon sub cult

Meanwhile in the "look left, look right, neck exercise for fans" game of tennis,
some guys named Mahut and Isner just successfully combined two sports...
TENNIS and MARATHON.

opm alterna-pop sub cult

My current favorite songs: BUS STOP [ cover of a 60s song by The Hollies] and WASAK WALTZ by ELY BUENDIA and the late great /my idol FRANCISM... from their album "In Love and War."

folk music sub cult

Why folk singers are cooler than rock stars...



[1] They just sit in one corner

[2] They never try to wreck their guitar

[3] They never set their guitar on fire

[4] They drink their beer, not guzzle it like there's no tomorrow

[5] They have friends, not screaming groupies

[6] They sing, not shout

[7] When they sing "baby..." it's about love. When rockstars sing "baby..." it's about sex

[8] They don't wear make-up and no one probably does their hair

[9] They wear clothes like the way regular people do. None of that leather biker shit

[10] They don't stick their tongue out

[11] They're steady, don't act crazy

[12] They usually go organic, not chemical

I could be wrong about all these, but I have an excuse. I'm unsubcultured.

unsubcultured if-then statement

If prostitution is the world's oldest profession...



Then the world's first marketing geniuses are...

futbol + oscars sub cult

During the final awarding ceremonies of World Cup 2010, this thing should also be awarded...




...to the best overacting flop play. There are lots of wimpy nominees to choose from diba!?


DOTA sub cult

I have no idea what this is. Some pc game. I think.

stamp collecting sub cult

Proof of childhood geekiness:



I have to admit it... I once tried to collect stamps.

bata palang ako unsubcultured na

When I was a kid, I thought that this woman's name was...



SERGEANT TINA.

Don't remember who or what gave me the idea. Later on, I found out her real name. Evita Peron pala. Wife of the Argentine dictator. Someone like Imelda Marcos. Only hotter.

fiesta ni san juan sub cult

Today is the feast of St John the Baptist... or San Juan. So if you don't wanna get wet, don't set foot on San Juan, Metro Manila and Balayan Batangas.

To make this feast day "cooler", I propose that they should always have a WET T-SHIRT CONTEST.

netherworlds sub cult

Opening line from the greatest TV show ever...

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area we call...

Belated happy birthday Gat Jose Rizal!



MAGPAINOM KA NAMAN!!!

death metal sub cult

Definition from Wikipedia: an extreme subgenre of heavy metal. It typically employs heavily distorted guitars, deep growling vocals, blast beat drumming, minor keys, and complex song structures with multiple tempo changes.

Mas makikinig pa ako sa Country music o opera o classical o kundiman, kesa sa ganitong walang kwentang, pampaingay sounds lang.



I guess you can't tell these guys to GO TO HELL. Because they will surely love it there.

cheesy pop ballads sub cult

Heard this on the radio this morning: Graham Russell & Russell Hitchcock, of AIR SUPPLY met on May 12, 1975, the first day of rehearsals for “Jesus Christ Superstar” in Sydney, Australia; they became instant friends with their common love for The Beatles and, of course, singing. Got the rest of the story from http://www.airsupplymusic.com/bio.shtml



I guess we can blame JC for this unholy union of cheesy balladeers.

confucianism sub cult

CONFUCIUS SAY...



UNSUBCULTURED IS THE NEW CULTURED

history + insulares/peninsulares + indio + football sub cult

I was stunned to see a fully packed Handle Bar last night.
Lots of people came out to see Spain vs Switzerland
[during the ivory coast vs portugal game, the bar wasn't packed].
I guess after all these years we are still under their rule...



That's why when Switzerland scored a "chamba" goal to beat them, we INDIOS couldn't help but laugh at the stunned conyitos and conyitas in the audience.
