ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES
i got this e-mail and had to pass it on... everything's been pasted verbatim, minus the colors for text
Along a highway in Pampanga:
"WE MAKE MODERN ANTIQUE FURNITURE"
On a self-service restaurant in Cebu:
"PLEASE HELP OUR COMFORT ROOM CLEAN"
In a Baguio grocery:
"FRESH FROZEN CHICKEN SOLD HERE"
In Cubao:
"NONE ID NOTHING ENTRY"
Along Luneta Boulevard:
"BAWAL TUMAE SA BU LEVARD"
On Jeepney and Bus signs:
"BEFORE PAY, TELL WHERE GET THE ON BEFORE GET THE OFF"
On a flower shop in Rizal Avenue:
"WE SELL ARTIFICIAL FRESH FLOWERS"
On a delivery truck:
"NOT FOR HERE"
On window of a restaurant in Baguio:
"WANTED: BOY WAITRESS"
On a street in San Juan:
"BAWAL MAGTAPON NG BINALOT NA TAE RITO"
A grafitti inside the cubicle of a ladies' C.R. in a university:
"PLEASE DON'T SIT LIKE A FROG, SIT LIKE A QUEEN."
At a men's comfort room, above a urinal:(maybe from UP Diliman dorm)
"HAWAK MO ANG KINABUKASAN NG BAYAN!!!"
At a construction site in Mandaluyong:
"BAWAL OMEHI DITO. ANG MAHOLI BOG-BOG"
Somewhere along San Andres:
"NO URINATING, ON THE OVER WALLS!"
Vacant lot near Makati Avenue:
"DON'T PARKING!!!"
At an eatery in Cebu:
"WE HAB SOPDRINK IN CAN AND IN BATOL!"
Sa pader ng Intramuros:
"MARUNONG K BANG TUMAHOL? ASO LANG ANG UMI-IHI DITO!"
And this is the best of them all...para sa mga abugado ito.... (no offends ha?)
On a building somewhere in the Philippines:
"NOTARY PUBLIC, TUMATANGGAP DIN NG LABADA KUNG LINGGO."
Melanie Marquez
normally, grammatical errors are forgiveable... but the following acounts are true and cannot be that easy to let go...
those who watched DEBATE when the topic was the joey-kris squabble and melanie was one of the panelists defending her brother can relate to this!
Melanie: "My brother is not a girl, he is a gentlemen."
(o, ha!)
melanie: "That's why I'm a success, it's because I do not MIDDLE in other people's lives."
(may katwiran. hindi nga naman siya nanggigitna!)
Melanie: "Do not judge my brother, he is not a book!"
(and he is. . . . . ??)
melanie: (in an angry and self-righteous tone) "i won't stoop down to my level!"
(dapat lang 'day! sa tangkad mong 'yan, bali ang likod mo!)
melanie: (as angry as hell) "hello? bulag ka ba? bingi ka ba? (points to ear) are you DEP????"
(Hindi ah. . . . shinampoo ko lang 'yan. . . )
melanie: "yung std... baka sa maruming toilet lang nya nakuha yan."
(hmmm....may punto ..... kung autistic ka!!)
melanie: (one of her best points yet) "eh ikaw ba naman durugin ang ari mo? pag di ba naman manutok ka ng baril?"
(this is a very popular observation of renowned psychologists. it's called the "mash the crotch, cock a gun" phenomenon)
naalala ko tuloy yung isa pa nyang comment noon ...
melanie: "i don't eat meat. i'm not a carnival."
(but you sure create one each time you open your mouth, honey!)
