The Long List of Why [Part 1]

Why is it considered cool to be cono?


Isnt being cono proof of being very poor in English? I mean if someone says “Uy, make tuhog-tuhog naman the fishball for me”, it usually means they don’t know what the English word for tuhog so they just use the Filipino word and try their best to make it sound classy. If the cono were actually good representatives of the educated upper class they’re supposed to belong to, wouldn’t they know to say instead “Would you please skewer some fishballs for me?”?


Just a thought…

Well's Pushpins

I bought a pack of Well’s Push Pins from Divisoria a couple of months ago. Not that I had any real use for them, it was just that it was thirty pieces of colorful, semi-transparent push pin joy for 12 pesos!

It says in the packet that it’s “ideal for school, office or home”. It’s also ideal for sticking in your stress ball to make it look like a colorful little mine.
