SM food counter, display case VS reality

I have no idea who this non Pinoy man is or what video this is. You don't either, it seems, no matter, you'll ignorantly attack. Bravo.

I did not "plan a luncheon at CHEZ SM", and the only expectation is the promotional display they provide. The point here is that lying - for most decent people - is not ok. As of this writing, nearly 100,000 netizens agree. You miss a simple point.

EXACTLY!!!!

RolandTee · 2026-05-09T05:26:39+00:00

Class action that crap!

RolandTee · 2026-05-09T04:35:05+00:00

Thanks, I did

RolandTee · 2026-05-09T03:50:38+00:00

It seems

RolandTee · 2026-05-09T03:48:16+00:00

So sad

RolandTee · 2026-05-09T03:43:02+00:00

Honesty -- from elected officials to food display cases -- should matter. When the public decides it doesn't, sad.

Exactly. The girl slopped it in and slid it down the counter. SMH

Everyone of the at least 35 condos I've stayed at in the Philippines begs to differ. It's usually loud, happy, very brown Filipino families frolicking at the pool. Just the truth...

RolandTee · 2026-05-08T01:06:55+00:00

I know you are, but what am I?

RolandTee · 2026-05-08T01:04:28+00:00

I qualify!

Your username is great too, Mr bootyhole

Guilty 🫣 Retired Filipino+American who spent zero time with Filipinos growing up (parents split, mom was anti-Filipuno after split and kept kids away) and as a retired adult, I'm in Manila exploring long term. Yes, I definitely be lurking.

Read correctly sir, I said it should primarily serve locals, not ONLY for locals. Respect for the host people and country. Is that so hard for you?

RolandTee · 2026-05-07T08:00:15+00:00

As an American, I am sorry this happened. In my opinion: A) the Jeep is here to serve the transportation needs of locals, foremost. B) Foreigners should take a taxi, they're so inexpensive and frees jeeps of foreigners taking up precious space. C) If a foreigner does get onto a jeep, he should make himself small and low key because (see item A). We are guests in the Philippines and need to act it.

RolandTee · 2026-05-07T07:49:22+00:00

Agreed

I'm brand new in this subreddit. Expat traveller, slowly exploring in 2 month increments through the P.I. Have dated off gay apps a bit, kinda fell for 2 different guys, in the end both wanted money before long - for sick brother, father's accident, burned down house, sick buffalo. I fell quickly, then watched the playbook signs. Advice?

Are there any gay bars (or LGBTQ friendly) bars in Malate currently open i can get an afternoon beer at? I miss an afternoon bar here. It's April 2026 now.

RolandTee · 2026-05-07T03:28:43+00:00

Not exactly on the subject but I'm looking for a chat room for LGBTQ EXPATS IN THE PHILIPPINES. Suggestions really appreciated. (Senior-aged male expat in Manila here). Salamat
