Back in college, we used to hang out a lot at this place called Coffee Indulgence, which was sort of USTe’s answer to Starbucks. But it wasn’t exactly Starbucks material; it had no air conditioning, had wooden chairs (or tree stumps) and cheap drinks.

Anyway.

One time, there was this one group over in the corner that just started singing for no reason. Sounds like that retard LA Lopez, I said quite loudly, not realizing that it was LA Lopez, the retard.

Which isn’t the point of this post. I just sort of remembered Mr. Lopez because he used to endorse iodized salt as the cure for Pinoy stupidity. So then. What exactly am I trying to say?

Commuting from my house to Makati each day gives me the rare opportunity to meet the worst of people. Not the best, unfortunately. I have yet to come across a hot guy on the MRT or the jeepney. What’s even more horrifying, though, is the realization that a lot of these people do need iodized salt. Not that it did a lot for LA Lopez, but what the hell. There still might be something to it.

Here’s my list of iodized salt-deprived people. The government might want to do something about them, for the good of humanity.

  1. Pedestrians who cross the street the moment the stoplight turns green then shriek like little girls when vehicles hurtle towards them
  2. People who ask, “what are you doing” while watching you brush your teeth/tie your shoelaces/some mundane act
  3. People who make an extremely long line behind just one turnstile (in the MRT station), leaving other perfectly okay turnstiles idle (they probably don’t even realize that the other turnstiles are working; they just stand behind other people like the idiots that they are)
  4. The bastard who translated Kim Chiu’s “Crazy Love” into Chinese and made her record it
  5. Pinoy Dream Academy’s Laarni
  6. People who vigorously stop an elevator’s doors from closing, ignore the flashing “UP” button and ask, “down?”
  7. Rallyists who have no idea what they’re rallying about. They’re just there to chant slogans and clog traffic
  8. People who idolize Willie Revillame
  9. Gretchen Barretto (see this for proof)
  10. People who think high-waist pants are fashionable. Repeat after me: Mommy pants will never ever ever be hot. Ever. It can’t even cover up your bulging puson, darling.

1. Reply to this post and I’ll assign you a letter.
2. List (and upload, if you feel like it) 5 songs that start with that letter.
3. Post that to your journal with these instructions.

Tagged by my friend Kris, I am given the task of completing this meme with the letter M. Actually, I sort of volunteered for this meme, since I have a lot of better things to do but not the diligence to do them. So then. On to my less than sterling answers:

Mother’s Little Helper ~ Rolling Stones
I think it won’t be difficult to understand why I love this song. It’s all about drugs, baby, hiding in some sweet WASP mom’s drawer. I know what it’s like to barely make it through one day, wishing there was some way to numb yourself and just watch the hours melt away. Sweet, sweet escape.

Many the Miles ~ Sara Bareilles
Yes, I’m in love with Sara B. right now. I’ve been listening to her songs constantly these past few days and I’m hooked. It’s not just the catchy melody; there’s something completely unhinged about the way she sings, like she’s not normal at all. I like “Bottle it Up”, too, but it doesn’t start with M, so what the hell.

Michael ~ Franz Ferdinand
This song is just so gay I have to love it. Sample these lines: “beautiful boys on the beautiful dance floor/Michael you’re dancing like a beautiful dance whore”. Now who wouldn’t love that? Seriously, it’s catchy, infectious and so gay you’ll be singing it for days.

Maxwell’s Silver Hammer ~ The Beatles
The rest of The Beatles thought it was another of Paul’s “fruity” songs. Really. All three (a rare occurrence) agreed that this song is evidence of Paul’s flamboyant gayness. Not that I’ll be swayed. Paul’s still the hottest Beatle ever (though I love John more, sorry) and he’s not gay. Otherwise, the universe will spin in reverse and it’s the end of the world as we know it. Now the song. It sounds funny but the lyrics are brutal. Violent. Bloody. Love it.

Make Yourself ~ Incubus
I’m no longer a big fan of Incubus, and you’re probably wondering why I didn’t pick the mainstream hit, “Megalomaniac” instead. Honestly, Morning View was the beginning of the end. It was still good, but it just wasn’t as good when compared to their earlier albums. “Make Yourself” is one song that will always have a very nice, cozy spot in my heart, thanks to its child-friendly lyrics: “And if I fuck me…I’ll fuck me in my own way”.

Now try it yourself. Or something. Just follow instructions and you’ll be fine.

You Act Like You Are 18 Years Old

You are a teenager at heart. You don’t quite feel like a grown up yet, but you don’t feel like a kid.
You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

You’re quite rebellious, and you don’t like being told what to do. You like to do things your way.
You have your own unique style, taste in music, and outlook on life.

What Age Do You Act?
miss choi

This is supposedly a Simpsonized version of me. Saw this cool link on Kris’s blog (sorry, too lazy to make links). Just look up “Simpsonize Me” on google and you should be fine.
