All of us have pet peeves. I have a lot. My mom and most of my guy friends always remind me, that if I didn't stop my being "suplada", "masungit", and "iritable" in the littlest things, I would eventually be a pathetic old maid. But yea, you can tell, I don't listen to them. If potential boyfriends can't handle me, then it's not anymore my problem. But whatever, that's not what I want to blog about.
So pet peeves. Let me share with you my list.
1. Super jologs Taglish SMS and/or chat messages (include those words that these jologs spell wrong): i.e. "Where na you?", "Okay naman me. Musta na u?", "La na q lod. Lod mu q."
UGHHHH. From where moronic place are you?? I am no English (or language for that matter) expert, but what I do is, if I know I couldn't say it in straight English, I speak straight Filipino, and vice versa. Okay I admit, I am a closet Taglish speaker too but what the hell, at least I spell words right. I don't blame these people. I blame the practice. I blame, most especially the factors that cause it.
2. Stupid Pinoy revivals: I just noticed, majority of the released singles in the present are revivals. Where are our great Pinoy composers? What is happening with our local music? We used to have the beautiful Kundiman. Okay, maybe we can't play them now as the Entertainment industry must keep up in the today's growing trend like, you know, RnB, HipHop, and Alternative Music. But I think Pinoys are much more talented than the music gods and goddesses in the US or UK that we praise. We can define our own music, our own style, much like how Japan and Korea cutely did it with J-Pop and K-Pop respectively. Maybe Urbandub can start the Pinoy music revolution? ;)
3. Dirty Nails: Eew, dude. Do I have to explain this further? Go wear your ballet flats if you haven't gone to the ped yet. Nail cutter's around 50 pesos only, you must get yourself one. :|
4. Radio station callers who are trying a little too hard: Just speak Filipino if you're having a hard time. That's what I do. Our jocks here are cool and steady, they don't mind what language you use, as long as they understand you. You are, one of the major reasons, why I switch one radio station to another.
5. "I'll tell you something. Oops, I just changed my mind.": UUGH! If you were not sure that you wanted something said, goddamn it, then don't even give a hint or a clue that there is indeed something inside your chest that you want to blurt out. The feeling that this act brings is just awful.
So much for my early rantings. What are your pet peeves?
HAHA! i agree Telie! :) I agree with number 4, sobrang funny yung mga callers lalo na sa Magic 89.9...good times with Mo. Favorite segment namin ni dad! I also agree with number 5! yung mga pabitin..."pwede baaa sabihin mo na lang!" :))
ReplyDeletemy pet peeve would have to be...yung pagkahaba haba ng text mo...tapos ang reply lang sayo ay isang letter lang..."K" :| so far that's all I can think about because it happened to me recently haha.
Oh and another pet peeve would have to be people na exage magbusina! lalo na if you're caught in traffic! you can't do anything but be immobile because the cars in front of you are not moving as well. Kainit ng ulo sa umaga! haha.
I miss you Kristel!! :D
hey lica! :)) you're the first to comment in my blog site! hahaha! yea, bad trip nga most callers of magic. feeling ko they want to impress mo or something! haha!
ReplyDeletepet peeve ko rin yan, mga busina king! i always tell myself to act like a decent woman eh, pero pag ako talaga... naku! haha!
