Speaking with The Adobo Chronicles, a Marvel Studios spokesperson said that ‘while the company was honored that Otso Diretso chose its copyrighted images to come up with the political ad, we object to the faces they used in the substitution. We could have ignored the copyright infringement if, say, photos of good-looking actors and personalities like Coco Martin, Pia Wurtzbach and others were used.”

 

 

 

 

Philippines Will Not Go To War With China Over Giant Clams, But As For Canada…

DF953231-EDE3-41F1-9F24-01C81F60E8B2MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The Philippines will not go to war with China over giant clams (illegally fished out by the Chinese from Scarborough Shoal in the West Philippine Sea), but is prepared to declare war on Canada over its trash shipment that’s been stinking for many years now  in Manila.

President Rodrigo Duterte warned Canada that if it does not take back its containers of trash shipped to the Philippines under the guise of being recyclable plastic, he is prepared  to load the trash on a boat and personally dump it back on Canadian soil.

Duterte knows how to pick his battles. The Philippines may not be a match to China in terms of military might, but as for Canada? “Kaya natin yan,” he declared, suggesting the Philippines can easily win a war against Canada.

Duterte’s statement could all be rubbish, but Canada can’t say it wasn’t warned!

 

 

Donald Trump To Get A Scolding From Queen Elizabeth When He Visits The U.K. This June

LONDON, United Kingdom (The Adobo Chronicles, Berlin Bureau) – Everyone wants to go to London to see the Queen, and Donald Trump is no exception. He has accepted an invitation from Elizabeth to visit Buckingham Palace this June.

But unknownst to the American President, the trip to London is more than just a  state visit.  Sources at the palace told The Adobo Chronicles that Trump will get a royal scolding for his anti-immigration and other policies inconsistent with that of the Monarchy.

America may have gained independence from Great Britain in 1776, but this will not stop the Queen from castigating the headnof its former colony — 13 colonies as a matter of fact.

Trump is expected to prepare — and prepare well — for a Queenly beating!
