An Ode To Spaghetti Electric Wires

Leave a comment

In the land where wires dance a tangled waltz,

Above the streets, they twist and vault.

Philippines, oh land of the spaghetti fray,

Where wires run wild, with no dismay.

While the world moves towards a greener way,

With electric cars to save the day,

Here, the wires hang, a chaotic maze,

A symbol of our prolonged daze.

While the US dreams of an electric fleet,

We grapple still with wires concrete.

How many generations must endure,

This aerial jungle, obscure?

Oh, Philippines, land of puzzling wires,

Entangled still in electric quires.

As other nations progress and soar,

We’re left pondering, what’s the score?

Till when shall we dance this tangled spree,

Till when shall our skyline be free?

As the world moves forward, we lag behind,

Entwined in wires of a bygone kind.

Senator Tulfo’s Imaginary Chinese Invasion Of Philippine Streets

Leave a comment

Senator Idol Raffy Tulfo’s sudden aversion to modernizing the country’s jeepneys seems to suggest he’s been in a Rip Van Winkle-style hibernation, awakening to a world where vehicular progress is the enemy. 

His comparison of China’s territorial claims to the West Philippine Sea with the introduction of modern jeepneys is as absurd as comparing apples to intergalactic spaceships. While one involves geopolitical aggression, the other is a mere upgrade in the local commute system.

Perhaps Senator Tulfo’s interns should redirect their energy from misplaced analogies to conducting an inventory of Philippine bus companies. They would discover a trove of Chinese-made buses quietly cruising our streets for years, presumably without causing an “invasion” panic.

Senator Tulfo’s selective concern for national sovereignty seems to be in need of a tune-up, preferably in the form of a reality check on the highways of progress.

Philippine National ID: Best Global Paper ID!

Leave a comment

In a groundbreaking revelation, the Philippine National ID has been hailed as the epitome of cutting-edge identification technology, leaving the world in awe of its sheer audacity to be… a printed piece of paper. Yes, move over biometrics, QR codes, and holograms – the future is here, and it’s laminated. Who needs the sophistication of digital security when you can proudly flaunt a tangible testament to bureaucracy?

In a stroke of genius, the government has declared that this printed relic is the pinnacle of modern identification. Forget the convenience of digital IDs; the Philippine National ID boldly brings us back to the era of typewriters and carbon paper. Clearly, the absence of technology is the true mark of progress. It’s not just an ID; it’s a time machine that transports us to a simpler era when privacy meant a locked diary, not encrypted data.

So here’s to the Philippine National ID, a beacon of innovation, proving once and for all that the future is, indeed, stuck in the past.
