RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - Sforza - 02-11-2010
I AM SO TIRED of SEEING MANNY VILLAR's FACE EVERYWHERE (and hearing that stupid song about swimming in garbage).
It's all over Facebook, Y!M, TV, radio! Even when I was walking around in the mall, it was playing on someone's AM radio!
So not voting for that guy. If he has that much to spend, give it to charity.
Also, his campaign speech yesterday (or was it the other day?) went something like, "Hindi umaasenso ang bansa dahil mayayaman ang humahawak!"
"Panahon na natin!" etc etc.
...I was like, WTF *enters reality marble*
Then people actually CHEERED.
Siya nga ang pinakamayaman sa lahat ng kumakandidato -_- AND he stole Erap's old platform.
Moments like that make me think the Philippines isn't ready for democracy. And, I need a good set of noise-cancelling headphones until the end of May.

Welcome to the club. I was assaulted by two of his ads while I was accessing youtube earlier - one popped up beside the video where the embed option should be, while the other appeared at the bottom.
Already asking IT if we can adblock the fucker.

lol he said he was poor before? maybe he was SURROUNDED by poor people. he didn't even study in a public school. only private ones. WTH. hope the masses will get duped a bit by erap so the votes for him would get reduced.
It's also amazing how much the guy sounds like a dude trying to hard sell something to you. If you watched any of the prez candidate debates and shows he always answered like a fucking ad. lol

Jamby
Noynoy
Tanginang Jamby. Psychopath.
RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - Mjting - 02-11-2010
I'm not voting as usual. lol
RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - NiX - 02-11-2010
If you don't vote, you'll have no right to complain later on.
RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - Mjting - 02-11-2010
And I really don't.

A Certain Manny Villar Commercial Parody

Quote:Naging Mahirap
Nakaligo ka na ba sa dagat ng basura?
Nag-Pasko ka na ba sa gitna ng kalsada?
Yan ang tanong namin,
Tunay ka bang isa sa amin?
Nalaman mo na bang mapapag-aral ka nya?
Tutulungan tayo para magka-trabaho?
At kanyang plano'y magka-bahay tayo?
Si Villar ang tunay na mahirap.
si Villar ang tunay na may malasakit.
Si Villar ang may kakayahan
At gumawa ng sariling pangalan.
Si Manny Villar ang magtatapos
ng ating kahirapan.

Voting is a choice as well. It's a person's way of saying "Fuck the candidates - all of them are full of shit!"
At least that's how I feel
RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - NiX - 02-11-2010
True. But it's not like not voting will magically make better choices appear.
RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - Twin-Skies - 02-11-2010
That's no reason for me to default vote for a jackass either

Not voting gives more weight to other people's votes, too

How about voting to prevent the ascent of a bigger jackass?
RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - Fox - 02-11-2010
Going for the lesser evil then?
RE: 2010 Philippine Elections Discussion Thread - NiX - 02-11-2010
It's not like there's any choice, really. They all seem evil.
But I'd prefer to vote based on their merits rather than their shortcomings.
