Pope Francis To The Media: You’re A Piece Of Sh*t

VATICAN CITY (The Adobo Chronicles, Rome Bureau) – Media that focus on scandals and spread fake news to smear politicians are nothing but a piece of sh*t, Pope Francis said in an interview published on Wednesday.

Francis told the Belgian Catholic weekly “Tertio” that spreading disinformation was “probably the greatest damage that the media can do” and using communications for this rather than to educate the public amounted to a sin.

Using precise psychological terms, he said scandal-mongering media risked falling prey to coprophilia, or arousal from excrement, and consumers of these media risked coprophagia, or eating excrement.

Medical Breakthrough: FDA Approves Anti-Selfie Medication

BETHESDA, Maryland (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – It was in March of 2014 when we first reported that the American Psychiatric Association (APA) officially classified the taking of selfies as a mental disorder.

The disease was given the namer ‘selfitis.’ It was reaching an epidemic proportion.

Other than self-control methods and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), the World Health Organization and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have not approved a cure since then.

Today, however, the FDA announced that it has approved and licensed a new pill that counters the urge to take a selfie. It was developed by Bayer, the same company that markets aspirin.

Recommended dosage is 1 tablet per day for men, and 5 tablets per day for women.

Bayer explained that the higher dosage for women was because in clinical trials conducted throughout the country, women had a more difficult time resisting the urge to take a selfie.

The downside to the new anti-selfie tablet is that it has to be taken for life.

Cynthia Patag’s Open Letter To VP Leni Robredo

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – She did it in 2015, and she’s doing it again in 2016 — criticizing the vice president of the Philippines.

Cynthia Patag, retired entertainer-turned Aquino apologist, lambasted then President Jejomar Binay for not supporting President NoyNoy Aquino. Now she is taking a similar stand about Vice President Leni Robredo who just resigned her Cabinet post because of irreconcilable differences with President Rodrigo Duterte.

What a difference a year makes. At least, Patag is consistent!
