SAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles, San Francisco Bureau) – For many, the long wait for Apple’s iPhone X was worth every minute. But for some, it was a big disappointment.
The much-hyped arrival of the iPhone’s latest iteration was nothing but a source of frustration for some loyal Apple customers who described the newest iPhone star as the most unfriendly smart phone they’ve ever had.
One particular Apple fanatic told The Adobo Chronicles that he wants to return his iPhone X, in which case it would become his iPhone ex.
Like na ex-boyfriend or girlfriend.
We tried to reach Apple for comment, but our Vivo smart phone ran out of battery power. We’ll try again tomorrow.
QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – In a rare display of humility, Vice President Leni Robredo today issued an apology for mixed messages that have been attributed to her on mainstream and social media.
First, she said her office was ready to help in the rebuilding of Marawi.
Then hours later, she said the Marawi City ruins should be preserved.
In a statement issued exclusively to the readers and followers of The Adobo Chronicles, Robredo said: “I am very sorry for the confusion I created. All the while, I thought ‘rebuilding’ and ‘preserving’ meant the same thing.
”My spokesperson and mouthpiece, Georgina Hernandez is on vacation so she was not able to filter my statements.”
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – When it comes to advances in medicine and technology, the Philippines is definitely not lagging behind.
Scientists at the Ateneo de Manila University have invented a gene therapy that can cure stupidity in human beings.
By injecting synthetic ‘I’ (intelligence) genes into clusters of naturally-occuring ‘S’ (stupidity) genes, researchers said that stupid people can transform into more intelligent individuals in just weeks.
The research, funded by the nonprofit group Intelligence Quotient International, was prompted by persistent reports that more and more Filipinos — especially elected politicians and anti-Duterte bloggers — have displayed serious cases of non-human intelligence lately.
The new discovery is sure to be among the frontrunners in next year’s Nobel Prize for Science and Technology.
