VEGETABLE PANCIT CANTON?!!!

Been seeing Quickchow's Veggie Pancit Canton commercial. The ad shows a mom who lovingly prepares a meal of fried chicken, rice and vegetables. The food was even decorated to look like a face. Fun, 'no?

Well, instead of appreciating his mom's hard work, the stupid brat becomes disgusted with the meal! Mommy gets frustrated and in comes the pancit canton. Tuwang-tuwa si bata! Namputcha! bilib na bilib si Mommy sa pancit canton na may gulay!

WTF! We're feeding this junk to kid's these days for the flimsy reason that they're supposed to have (dehydrated) vegetables!!! Alas, this culinary(?) abomination is right up the same alley of the pancit ulam. Vegetables! Goodness gracious! These people think they're artificial noodles are supposed to replace real honest-to-goodness vegetables?!!

Kung tutuusin, it did come from the producers of a famous artificial juice drink. Go figure.

Afterthought from a very strange experience...

A couple of years ago, my wife's friends encouraged us to join a badminton club. Since I've been thinking of getting serious with the sport, we joined without much hesitation. Just like any club, we met and played with several folks, some became very good friends. Aside from that, we were able to hone our skills thanks to training sessions and tips from member-coaches. Last Saturday, I was one of the players from our group who participated in the annual inter-club tournament. Players from their respective mini-groups called pocket e.b.'s (eye balls) were matched with other pocket e.b.'s from the club's ever-growing roster. The whole idea of the event was meant to foster camaraderie among fellow members and not so much on whose team had the most wins. Alas, somehow the whole event reminded me of an inter- barangay basketball league gone bad. Well, at least no such things as fisticuffs and the dreaded patayan ng ilaw (setting up a free-for-all by turning the light...

Drama-rama sa Hapon!

This was one pet peeve I've always had. At work, we usually tune in to GMA 7 around lunch time to catch Eat Bulaga! and the rest of the Drama-rama block. The current slew of shows consists of Daisy Siete, Muli, Princess Charming and capped-off with the Koreo-novela rerun, Full House. Okay, before anyone starts commenting that I've got waaaay too much time on my hands, we don't really "watch" these shows. We just listen to them and go on our usual tasks. It's just been a habit that has made our afternoons more bearable and less boring. Believe me, listening to them is fine. Just fine. So, how about a lazy critique? Daisy Siete Season 14: Siete-Siete, Mano-Mano The latest season of the "phenomenal" Sex Bomb Girls opens with what seems to be an action-packed theme song. I think the story revolves around the girls trying to get into a URCC -type fighting tournament. Throw in a case of bad stepfamilies, evil, conniving co-workers, a little dancing, hunky...

Jailhouse Rock!

This was taken from the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center. Other than "Radio Gaga" by, heheh, "The" Queen, the inmates danced to "Jumbo Hotdog" and "I Will Follow Him". Sure made me smile today.
