The Ranks: PiliPinas Debates 2016

04/25/2016 05:34:42 PM

So we have seen enough. Four televised debates for the 2016 General Elections were staged—three of them were intended for the Presidential candidates, while the remaining one is for the vice-presidential slate.

That being said, every single one of us news-savvy citizens tend to criticize the output by whatever means possible.

And honestly, some of you may not agree with me, but here is my final ranking on which show sucked big time, and which debate stood out the most?

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: PiliPinas Debates 2016 - Part 2

Interaksyon
Isang buwan rin ang pagitan ng mga ginaganap na presidential debate na inorganisa ng Commission of Elections (COMELEC), ano? Parang kailan lang, nasa Cagayan De Oro sila sa pagsisimula ng debate-seryeng ito. Samantalang parang kailan lang din ay nasa Cebu sila para sa ikalawang leg nito.

Sa darating na Linggo ng hapon, kung pagbabasehan ay ang oras ng aking pagsulat nito, ay gaganapin ang huling PiliPinas presidential debate sa Dagupan, Pangasinan.

Pero bago ang lahat, ano nga bang nangyari sa Unibersidad ng Pilipinas sa Cebu?

StopOver: Angono Lakeside Park

Sometimes, you don’t have to go a hundred or thousand miles away from Manila to see places which are truly beautiful and worth the effort. All you need is to traverse the roads at the nearby provinces, look around, and when you get there, simply appreciate them.

Such as this case when yours truly along with my partner Maxim, stormed by the near-eastern side of Rizal province and witness the beauty of Laguna de Bay at the Lakeside Park.

Noong nakaraang linggo, nagkaroon ng ganito.

Hanep sa trip e no? Sinakyan na lamang ng Ace Hardware ang isang kalokohan. Tila swerte na rin sa publicity ang taga-branch nito sa SM City Lucena. Bakit nga naman hindi, eh nagtrend kaya sa social media ang naturang event.

Malanding Political Fantard Problem: FO na!

04/21/2016 10:25:23 AM

Ito ang panahon ng eleksyon. Panahon para makialam ka sa lipunan kahit minsan lamang sa mahabang panahon. Panahon para magkaroon ka ng paninindigan. Panahon para alamin, tuklaisin, kilatisin, busisiin ang nararapat na maihalal bilang representante ng ating lipunan.

At maaring panahon ito ng pagkakaroon ng hidwaan sa paniniwala o perspektibo pero hindi ibig sabihin nito na panahon rin ito para awayin mo ang hindi sumasang-ayon sa iyo.

Patawa Masyado

04/19/2016 09:57:21 AM

Nakakatawa. Maraming nagpapatayan sa argumento kung isa nga bang patawa ang binitawang salita ng tumatakbong presidenteng Rodrigo Duterte o hindi. Kung makapag-akusa ay wagas, para bang ang lilinis ng mga kupal. Yung iba namang dumedepensa, para namang ang daming alam na tama. Okay sana kung talaga namang straight yung facts na nakukuha—at kung talaga namang sumusporta sa kanya eh.

Ano ang ibig kong sabihin?

OA much?!

04/14/2016 04:24:56 PM

Alam mo, as much as gusto kong intindihan ang pinaglalaban ni Mystika. Kaso is it just me or na-o-OAyan lang talaga ako sa video niya na ito?

Rewind: Denmark – Gitnang Daliri

04/13/16 01:18:52 PM

At one point in my life, I was hooked up with this rapper known as Denmark. Well, he's more than just spitting novelty fascination-turned-forbidden affection. Yes, there's more on Denmark's songs that hearing a long story of Luningning and her offspring.

"Sa tingin ba nila gagawa pa kami ng ganun?"

No to CCTV camera ang mga empleyado ng Bureau of Customs. Pinoportesta nila ang naturang kilos kay commissioner Alberto Lina.

Sinasabi raw kasi na isa sa mga pinakatiwaling ahensya ang Customs. Sabagay, ilang taon na rin pinupuntirya yan. At sa isang ekslusibong ulat ng GMA News, na tila umabot sa -55 ang trust rating nito, hindi na rin kataka-taka.

PlayBack: The Ransom Collective – Settled

04/11/16 11:59:41 AM


From small gigs to the big-time festivals, The Ransom Collective has rocked them all. This indie-folk band has been wooing aficionados, fellow musicians, and even critcs. Perhaps that speaks for a lot of reasons such as on why they made it on the Wanderland Fest 2014; why they almost won that year's edition of Deezer Young Guns (placing just next to Hungary's Middlemist Red); and why they were part of Spotify's Spotlight Artists for 2016.
