The Rundown Slam: WWE Battleground 2014

7/29/2014 3:40:50 AM


After John Cena successfully climbed the ladder to ascension, he’s up for a new challenge: and that is defending his 15th world title in a gruelling four-way clash. With perhaps the interesting here are something I can only describe in two things: another competitor on the rise by the name of Roman Reigns and an avenging heel in Randy Orton.

Last Home Buster

7/29/2014 3:44:45 PM

Nakakadismaya nga naman, ano? Akalian mo, isang basketball game sana tampok ang mga manlalaro ng NBA at ang Gilas Pilipinas, nakansela pa sa pamamagitan ng “last minute announcement” noong gabi ng Lunes, Hulyo 21, 2014, sa Smart-Araneta Coliseum sa Quezon City.

Ayan tuloy, nauwi sa scrimmage ang dapat sana’y isang exhibition contest.

At ang siste, mantakin mong magkano kaya ang binayad ng karamihan sa mga ‘to? Balita raw ay mual P750 hanggang P23,300. Wasak, men.

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: State Of The Fashion Address

7/29/2014 3:00:01 PM

Media reporter: Congressman Timothy Wally, ang gara ng suot n'yo ha?
Congressman: Ay, oo naman. Yung wardrobe designer ko ang gumawa nito.

MR: Who are you wearing, Sen. Corazon Apting?
Senator: (insert name of designer here)

HAY NAKU.

Wala nang mas nakakairita pa kesa sa mga nagbobonggahang mga gown at barong tagalog kapag araw ng State of the Nation Address.

Bago N'yo Taasan Ang Pasahe sa Jeep...

06/30/14 03:12:27 PM



May usap-usapan na planong itaas sa sampung piso (P10) ang pasahe sa mga pampasaherong jeepney, mula sa dating walong piso at limampung sentimo (P8.50) na presyo nito. Napanood ko nga lang ito bilang isa sa mga balita sa isang morning show sa isa sa mga higanteng TV network.

Actually, 8.50 mula noong nakaraang buwan—at muli , matapos ang apat na taon na nakapako ito sa otso pesos (P8.00)

Ano? Putangina?! Magtataas na naman sila?

Oo nga. (Unli ka rin, e no?)

Playback: It's On Again

06/27/14 12:33:49 PM

I don't know why it took me  some two months to appreciate this track. I know, Kendrick Lamar's the new face of current mainstream rap music (you can't call him God since he's too young, and Eminem still ruled that world at all), and Alicia Keys we have in this 2014 soundtrack was not the same dudette you listened on 2013 (with that high-belting song “Girl on Fire”), nor even during the past decade where she sounded like that vintage Motown music.

But this? Heck, one good collaboration at all.


  
Buy why it took me two months? Why only now, slickmaster?

Erroneous

6/14/2014 11:50:32 AM

Noong unang mga araw ng buwan ng Hunyo ay ginulantang ang mga tao ng mga balita na may kinalaman sa isang seryosong gawain ng tao sa kanyang buhay—ang pag-aaral. Hindi ito usapin na maraming estudyante ang pumasok, kakulangan ng classroom, o kung may naiulat na kaso ng pangbubully sa eskwelahan. Kundi ang mga mali sa textbook.

Breakout Semester

Sa bawat unos, may ahon. Sa bawat pagkadapa, may pagbangon. Sa bawat talo, may panalo. At sa bawat paglubog ng araw, may panibagong sisikat kinabukasan.

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: National Language Ban?!

7/12/2014 10:11:02 AM

Isang kagimbal-gimbal na balita na lamang ang gumulantang noong nakaraang (o kung masyado kang mapagbilang sa kasaysayan – ika-116) Araw ng Kasarinlan — pinapatinanggal sa kurikulum ng mga kolehiyo ang subject na Filipino.

The irony, ‘di ba? Mukha lang siyang nanggaling sa So What’s News, Abril Uno, at sa kung saang satire site.

Last Minute Syndrome

5/24/2014 6:04:59 AM


Isa sa mga sakit ng tao ay ang “katamaran.” Daig pa nya ang kanser, heart attack, at stroke kung tutuusin. Kung may pambasang sagisang ang mga karamdamansa ating lipunan, ito yun. Oo nga,ang katamaran. Bow. At isa sa mga kalunos-lunos na resulta ng ating pagiging “katam” ay ang pagkakaroon pa ng isang kumplikasyon na kung tawagin ay “last minute syndrome.”

Daig pa nito ang “last two minutes” (mas okay kung ang magsasabi nito ay yung lumang coliseum barker sa PBA; yung medyo monotonous ang dating) sa basketball. Dito, mas clutch ang mga tao. Mas nagmamadali. Mas maraming napapraning. At mas maraming umiinit ang ulo na humahantong sa kanilang pagkadismaya.


Kaya ang resulta ay magpaparinig sa Facebook at magwiwika ng “Putanginang COMELEC yan! Wala na raw extension! Samantalang dumating naman ako ng last day para magparehisto!”

Grand Slam!

7/12/2014 11:11:33 AM

It’s a very rare thing for the world of Philippine sports to see this word: Grand Slam. And bet my money on this: fans nowadays aren’t very much familiar with that.

Yes, it’s very rare that only three ball clubs achieved the feat in all 39 years of existence in the PBA.
Until San Mig Coffee completed their road of bagging fourth straight championship—including all of the three conference crowns this season.

"Saan Po Kayo Kumukuha Ng Kapal Ng Mukha?"

7/12/2014 10:31:08 AM

Ito ang narinig  mo sa State of the Nation Addres ng Kuya mo last year (Lunes yun to be exact, July 22, 2013).

Manila Bulletin, philipinenewscentral.wordpress.com

“Saan po kayo kumukuha ng kapal ng mukha?”

Knocked Down In 16 Seconds

7/15/2014 10:59:14 PM

I rarely watch any matches from the Ultimate Fighting Championship; and in case I managed to really catch up, I ended up seeing this lady named Ronda Rousey.

Wow, this chick’s not just your ordinary fighter, aye? She’s been jeered like a wrestling; heel and the next time around, praised like a real champ. Prior to battling Alexis Davis on UFC 175, Rousey had dominated almost all of her MMA fights by submission – with 7 of her 8 armbar victories came on the first round alone.

Now that’s a toughass chick right there.

As I looked forward to the Battleground, I saw this video circulated over the internet.

Unconstitutional?!

7/15/2014 10:50:29 PM

Ayan na. Lumabas na ang desisyon ng Korte Suprema; aniya, “unconstitutional” daw ang Disbursement Acceleration Program fund o sa madaling sabi, ang DAP. At 13-0 yan, isang bonggang-bonggang unanimous decision, na kala mo ay sa mga laban sa UFC at boxing mo lang maririnig ang katagang yan.

O tapos, ano na? Unconstitutional pala yan eh!

Gangster Daw?!

Anong meron sa poster na ito?

Gangster daw.

Whoa. Talaga ha? Gangster ampucha. Bakit ganun namana ng itsura, parang albularyo daw?
