    Inside joke but the joke was you

    I (f) (21) encountered inside joke pero yung joke is ako, mahilig ako mag thirst trap sa socmed not because uhaw ako sa attention or what it's just my way para maging confident. Habang nag lalaro kame ng duo ko sa valo (p game) may nag inv sakin para makipag laro and it was my old friend sa discord, she asked me kung gusto ko makipag laro sakanila and so l agreed cuz gusto ko din sila makalaro, I joined sa de call, so ingame kame ng duo ko inaantay nila kameng matapos. Habang nag lintay sila nag jjoke sila at nag tatawanan I don't seem to get the joke, they kept saying 'type shi' multiple times. They were also imitating my duos way of speaking dahil may pag ka conyo sya. mga ilang seconds lumipas i remembered nag story ako sa ig ng thirst trap i put a text saying 'type shi' because the song i used was titled "type sh*t". Hindi ko mahanap yung salitang naramdaman ko earlier, im shaking but not physically more like sa emotion. May pinag samahan kame kahit papano tapos harap harapan nila ginagawa sakin yun, siguro im overthinking it? But i know it was me. Can anyone advice me what to do para mag parinig sa socmed sa ginawa nila sakin. And what's your thoughts!:)

    Fake survey na nga, bawal ka pang tumanggi, mapilit pa sa personal info mo.

    One time I was waiting for someone when this woman suddenly came to me. She asked kung pwede raw ba magpa-"survey." I looked at her shirt and may logo ng school, I thought for academic purposes so I agreed. Little did I know babasahan pala ako ng bible. Mind you pala, you can't say no. Pag tumanggi ka, pipilitin ka nilang makinig and give them your time. Nakakabastos tbh. They'll say "kahit konti lang" or "mabilis lang to" tapos aabot ng almost 5 mins siguro 💀. Pang-ilang no mo na, sisimulan ka na nilang basahan.

    Dun ko na-realize na yung mga parang bible study keme nga 'to (kasi maraming ganto sa labas ng school namin), which it was! Looking at their bible, I don't think Roman Catholic sila. Wala naman akong problema kung babasahan/isa-study ako.

    After nun the lady asked for my personal info a lot of times and ang forceful talaga nilang hingin! Eh very, as in, protective pa naman ako sa personal information ko. Nung una hiningi messenger ko, I said no and I don't really give out my messenger to people. Sunod na hiningi is contact no. ko, I said no uli. She just asked for my name and ofc I gave a fake one. After nun, ilang beses akong pinilit na pumunta raw sa "church?" something nila ('diko na maalala, basta gets nyo na). Sabi ko hindi ako makakapunta kasi sobrang busy namin sa school (which is true) pero pinilit ako ng ilang beses! Kahit three minutes lang daw ako roon.

    Nakakainis na hindi na nga nila nirespect privacy and yung declination ko, pilit pang hingin info ko, many times in different ways. In my opinion, if they want to encourage others to join/become part of their religion, sana in a respectful way, hindi yung ganyan.

    ano say niyo as christian or as agnostic?

    it was shared by my church friends, for the context im a closet MCGI/ADD member by Bro Eli Soriano and now proceeded by Daniel Razon.

    sa bylaws kasi namin ang mga babae bawal magpagupit ng buhok, as in kahit split-ends. so kung pinanganak ka sa mcgi na babae simula baby ka gang pagtanda mo ayun at ayun yung buhok mo. may mga instances lang na pwede kung nagbuhol o nalagyan ng kung ano like chewing gum.

    for me okays lang naman kasi kanya kanya naman gimik ng mga religion like catholic may mga wierd teachings din naman sila pati inc.

    pero ayun simula naging agnostic ako, lumawak yung pagtingin ko kay Lord. na di naman siya gaanong kalupit na God like chill lang siya kasi ginawa nya lang naman tayo (kung totoo man) na di rin naman gaano perfect kaya nagkakamali at nagkakamali tayo.

    pero for me strongly disagree ako sa mga ganito na kesyo nagpagupit ka masamang tao ka na, mga ganon like yung physical body mo doesn't reflect you as a holy or unholy. its your soul/heart/spirit within that counts. so okay lang sakin kahit anong physical appearances mo as long na wala kang ginagawang masama sa kapwa mo.

    Delayed lbc package

    Anybody here experienced delayed delivery from LBC? First time ko maka encounter ng mahigit 7 days from NCR to Davao. Yung package is electronic gadget kaya nakakainis baka iniwan nilang mabilad kung saan e baka masira lang yung battery. Is it possible also na nawala nila ito? Usually NCR to Davao is only 3 days. Tried to send an email but no reply. Tracked the package pero di gumagalaw on the way to davao hub lang naka lagay for 6 days.

    The Pareto Principle of Fixing Metro Manila

    As per the Pareto Principle, for most outcomes, 20% of the input is responsible for 80% of the output.

    In the topic of “beautifying” or “repairing” a huge chunk of urban planning problems in MM, I believe it comes down to a few very simple (not easy) tasks.

    1. Remove spaghetti wires
    2. Remove squatters and demolish all slums
    3. Consolidate utility posts and remove obstructions from walk ways (including and especially illegal vendors.)

    I’m not gonna talk about overhauling public transport or making new side walks or planting more trees.

    Literally do those 3 things and you’ll get 70-80% of the way there.

    Masulit Sana ng Taumbayan

    Masulit sana yung pinapasweldo sa kanila. Local man o National. Alam naman natin yung ibang naka posisyun jan is mayaman na talaga before pa tumakbo sa pulitika pero sana tao ang inuuna.

    Kaya sa next election naway magising na tayo sa katotohanan and iboto ang nararapat.

    Hindi magpapatayan ang mga pulitiko dahil sa suweldo kundi sa makokobra na kickback.

    Negative PSA marriage cert

    It has been 3 months since I got our report of marriage so I requested a copy via PSA serbilis and I got a negative certificate. So I guess they wait out until 6 months? I wish there is a way to know if the certificate is ready to be requested or not. I spent almost 70 dollars for nothing. It’s a waste.

    Mercury Drugs online pick up

    Nonsense din online pickup, nag online para iwas pila nag intay pa din ako - mas matagal pa nga - kase nag iintay pa sila confirmation ng payment kung saan man kahit confirmed na sakin na may receipt na ako.

    Walang kwenta kahit may online system in place or wala, core values nila maging mabagal at inefficient.

    Adoption of infant

    Hi there, I am on a lot of Facebook groups of parents are attempting to give up their children in the Philippines. Does anyone know the process of this? Is there a social service center that I can talk to? Do you guys have social workers? What type of attorney there would you recommend me talking to?

    employment vl/sl

    hello sa mga expert dyan ask ko lang sana mga boss yung nainterview kasi ako ang sabi sakin 1year bago ako magkaroon ng vl/sl. Pero yung binasa ko ang handbook/coc nila may nakalagay dun na 6months of continous service dapat may vl/sl na. Matagal nako nag wwork at palipat lipat din din kasi mabilis ako magsawa. usually after kong mag probationary at ma regular na ng 6months may sick/vacay leave na agad ako.

    tama ba pag kakaintindi ko dyan sa pic. need ko muna ma regular then 6months ulit after regularization tsaka ako nagkakaroon ng sick/vacation leave?

    salamat po sa makakasagot

    A Wrestling Show in UAAP

    What if magdagdag sila ng wrestling show sa UAAP? Yung mala-WWE, AEW, NJPW, etc. Since meron na rin naman silang taekwondo, judo, etc, why not sports entertainment naman para maiba?

    Tapos yung mga kasali sa main roster ay yung lahat din ng players sa UAAP. Tapos gawan din nila ng storyline yung mga feud gaya ng Ateneo vs La Salle, UP vs UST, FEU vs UE, and etc. And then kunwari kapag may nag-champion na or nakapasok sa top four, sila rin yung maglalaban sa Monday/Friday Night UAAP at doon magbabardagulan para ilabas yung mga sama ng loob nila sa nakalaban nilang team kung meron man.

    Lagyan na rin ng Royal Rumble kung saan puwede ring mag-guest yung ilang famous personalities, public figures, and influencers na mahilig makisawsaw kahit saan to the point na pati ito papatulan na nila.

    And then may apat championship belt. Yung pinaka-prestigious ay yung UAAP Universal Champion, pangalawa ay yung UAAP World Champion, at pangatlo ay yung U-Belt Grand Champion, tapos meron ding UAAP Tag Team Champion.

    Tapos sa show na ito ipauso rin yung intergender match (man vs woman) etc. Gawan nila ng feud yung pinakamatangkad na babaeng volleyball player vs sa pinaka-macho na lalaking basketball player.

    Tapos puwede rin sumali rito yung mga professors at coaches sa bawat campus as long as willing sila mag-train at makipag-participate sa sports entertainment. Siyempre may mga professors/coaches vs students/players din na feud.

    What do you think? Papatok kaya ito sa Philippines? Lilikha kaya ito ng ingay?

    P.S Nakainom po ako ngayon kaya sana pagbigyan or sakyan nyo na lang ako haha. Let's just pretend na kunwari may ganito nga sa UAAP. How would you book them? Lol.
