Cow Poop
It's bad enough that Americans have a flair for it, and we all know that Filipinos will always take after their American liberators; copying them as much as possible and as often as possible. So, here's one more thing some Filipinos emulate from their American counterparts; good old American bullshit. That's right, bullshit. Although it's done here in the Philippines, it is (I'm quite happy to say) most probably not like it's American brother. Sentences, praises, sayings, reasonings I've heard that all merit the conclusion of being considered BS:
*Note that I will not mention who said it, though I know the person or not (if I do and you happen to come by this, congrats =p)
1. Eating while reading is not healthy. Your mind and stomach are working on different things. You will get indigestion.
- Balderdash!
2. Computers shouldn't be used to watch movies. It is not a DVD player.
- And Skype shouldn't have been invented either because a computer is not a phone either.
3. You know, you're not always right. Nobody is.
- True. But then, how do I know you're right this time around?
4. I have only one request from you. And you have to do it without any questions asked.
- So, how is it a request then?
5. You can do anything you want. Just not this.
- Right... anymore stuff I can't do?
6. It's not you, it's me. I don't know why but it's not you, it's me.
- How can you NOT argue with a logic such as this one?
7. Let's just be friends.
- Noone has said this to me before but my friend tells me it's BS, and she's quite justified in saying so.
8. No. I don't want to. I don't really feel like it.
- I feel cold, and not because I'm swimming in a tub full of ice cream.
9. Pasensya na, sir (Forgive us for your inconvenience; in some sense), naubusan po kami kasi nagorder tapos hinde nareceive yung order (we ran out of stock and ordered but we haven't received the order yet).
- I did not come to your shop to hear sob stories, either you have it or you don't, spare me the excuses.
10. Yes, sir. I'm not that sure but there should be one right there.
- Either you know or you don't. If you don't, then don't bother leading me to any random direction just because you don't want to look foolish.
11. *Happened to me in the hotel in Macao that I was staying in, translated from Mandarin* Excuse me sir, but my boss is arriving late tonight and this is his daughter right here. We don't have much money and we were hoping that you'd lend us a couple of hundred Macao dollars (or whatever their called, forgot) so we can get something to eat. We were hoping you could spare abit more than we ask because, as you know, the food in the hotel is expensive and we we're hoping to get atleast two dishes. We will repay your kindness when my boss arrives, which will be sometime tomorrow.
- One, you even have to audacity to ask for a large amount just because you want to get two dishes and not one? Excuse me, but I'm not the idiot who forgot to bring money. Two, what do you take me for? If it's so expensive in the hotel, go eat outside the hotel then, you moron. Three, what time tomorrow? When I'm asleep and you've put a safe distance between us?
12. Wakakakaka / Wakokokokoko / Jajajajajaja.
- It's Wahahaha and Hahahaha. I don't even know how you people intend to enunciate or communicate using such dribble.
13. This is a transformative learning class.
- Since we have to teach ourselves, do you think that we can have a refund of our money and just pay for the usage of the room? Oh and sir/maam, you may be excused. I don't think you'll be much use to our progress anyway, right?
By mass, human cells consist of 65-90% water, and a significant portion is composed of carbon-containing organic molecules.99% of the mass of the human body is made up of the six elements oxygen (65%), carbon (18%), hydrogen (10%), nitrogen (3%), calcium (1.5%), and phosphorus (1.2%).
Unless we eat something and it is digested properly, nowhere does it state in the body's composition of shit being included yet I can't help but wonder why some people can be so full of shit sometimes (or always). More food for thought ^^
