06/17/2016 05:54:58 PM

Sa mga nakalipas na taon, ito na lamanag ang isa sa mga nakakairitang diskusyon sa mundo ng social media. Ito kasi napapala kapag mahihilig na lang tayo tumanaw sa nakaraan at hindi ma-appreciate ang kasalukuyang mga bagay eh.

OPM is dead, ika nga raw. At ang sinuman na nagrant nito, hinamon pa diuamano ang mga hindi sumasang-ayon na kasuhan siya.

Talaga lang ah? OPM is dead?

The Scene Around: SM City Marikina Indiefest

06/07/2016 12:42:22 AM 



It's interesting to see the mall giant SM taking one step in appreciating the country's music scene, especially in their 30th year in the business. And while Beatstroked proved they could handle such events at the Eastern side of the Metro (Taytay, Rizal, to be exact), Marikina was the stage to showcase the up-and-comers during that fateful evening of Friday, 20 May 2016, as SM City Marikina celebrated Indiefest Summer Music Festival

The Rundown Slam: WWE Extreme Rules 2016

It's about time the World Wrestling Entertainment has gone beyond control. Talk about revolutionary where the underdogs stepped its way to revelry. Where an emerging club dares to take down the bloodline of the top empire. Where a reckoned force gets its way back domination. This is when the WWE gets extreme, and it's literally called Extreme Rules. 

But did the WWE Extreme Rules 2016 paid extremely well as the second pay-per-view of the new era?

The Pre-take: 2016 NBA Finals

06/06/2016 11:45:08 PM

I know it's been quite late to do this. Two games have passed by, and we have seen the utmost and the unquestionable domination of the defensing champions. Perhaps, a 3-1 deficit at the Western Conference Finals served them as a wake-up call; keeping their hopes of making history (on a good note) alive and salvaged themselves from marking a bad one. (After all, who would like to see a 73-9 winning team go to waste in the battle for the representation of the current's most dominating conference at the NBA?)

Victory at First Glimpse


05/30/2016 12:04:40 PM

Wall Street Journal
People have witnessed the initial turnout of the general elections held at around 92,000 precincts in the country during Monday, 9 May 2016. At the first few hours, we have seen Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte emerged at the top of the partial and unofficial polls. Days have passed by, and we saw him pulling away from either runner-up Senator Grace Poe and eventually Secretary Mar Roxas. Thus, declaring landslide in the process.

During the stretch, Poe, Roxas, and later on, Vice President Jejomar Binay have conceded already. More than just raising the white flag, this signified victory in favor of the majority. And frankly, the result was even proven well when the National Board of Canvassers awarded the win after amasing more than 16 million votes, as opposed to both Roxas and Poe who garnered nine million each.

But what perhaps could be the reason why Rodrigo Duterte won the election? Is it because of the "million-people rally" in Manila? Is it because of the various designed shirts, stickers, and tarpaulins? Is even a single political advertisement became a big factor? Is it because of this news exposure regardless of good or bad turnout called "publicity?"

Maulan Kagad?!

05/18/2016 09:24:18 PM

Hindi mo na masisisi ang mga tao. Hindi na kataka-taka kung bakit na lang sila mapapraning kagad eh. At paano ba naman eh, nagbabago na ang klima, umi-extreme na nga e.

Kaya ganun na lamang ang pagkabahala nila kung matapos ang isa o dalawang oras ng pag-ulan – kahit hindi naman malakas yun – ay bigla na lamang masasabi nila na “Ay, shet, tag-ulan na!”

Thundering On The Brink of Elimination

05/25/2016 06:48:10 PM 

The Golden State Warriors lost two straight games for the first time this season, eh?

Anyone thought it was a big deal, don't you? Well, yeah, it could really be a big deal since this time around—the defending champions ended up trailing 3-1 in their best-of-7 series for the Western Conference Championship; and also the right to represent the conference in the upcoming NBA Finals.


Wait, how on earth did that happen?

WWE Back in Manila?!

05/25/2016 09:02:10 AM

So, how true that after quite a long while, the World Wrestling Entertainment will hit by the country once again?

If you remember the RAW and Survivor Series tour in 2006, the SmackDown & ECW pit stop in 2009, and even those old tours in Cuneta Astrodome and Cebu in the past decades, then you might not miss to see the new breed of superstars at Mall of Asia Arena.
