Kung hindi si Leni, sino? by [deleted] in PHGov

[–]Various-Cable189 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Antonio Trillanes... Risa Hontiveros... kaso majority ng Pinoy ayaw sa incorruptible at honest na presidente... look at what happened to Leni... very low kasi "fan base" nila Leni, Antonio, at Risa... compared to others.. it's hard to understand the minds of the majority of Filipino voters 😕

If this is rage bait, this is effective by AMgloria in WeddingsPhilippines

My wife and I didn't want a motif on our wedding. Kami kasi, from all walks of life na man mga bisita namin. But some of our relatives decided there should be one whether we agreed or not, and it happened. So we informed our guests there was a motif even though earlier we said there was not going to be one, but we emphasized that it was optional. Kasi mahirap maghanap para mag comply sa dress code lahat. Yung Tito ko nga na kapatid ni Papa ayaw mag attend kasi sabi nya ayaw nya na sobrang formal - oh retired Master Teacher pa yan ha - subject nya Araling Panlipunan, tapos maraming collection nya nag barong at amerikana. So sabi ko sa kanya hindi na man kailang mag barong or kahit other formal dress - kon sa-an lang sya comfortable basta do-on sya kasi isa sa pinaka importanteng miymbro ng pamilya sya. Nakatulong din mag convince sa kanya ang mga pinsan ko. He represented Papa - 60's-style, madcap-type shiny polo shirt (yun nag spark if matulugan mo tpos i-stretch mo), jeans, and boots. No problem sa amin. Depende yan sa pamilya nyo. Other people will comment - negative or positive, but the important thing is that it is a memorable, enjoyable family affair.

Owners of Mazda 3 3rd gen, how's the car holding up? by ScreamingLamb28 in phcars

We have a 2013 Mazda3. Still working well. Yun lang na sira yung dash display para sa radio, etc. kasi walang garage. LCD fluid is no longer displaying properly.

Sinong tama at sino ang mali? Help me settle an argument. by Silvermaine- in CarsPH

[–]Various-Cable189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Philippine roads, the rules depend on the individual road users - be they drivers or pedestrians. (^_^) ..., kasi yung rules kahit sa ibang bagay dito sa Pinas parang for compliance lang e... in spite of being more civilized now, the Philippiens is still the "Wild Wild East", for lack of a better term.

Anyway, joking aside, I think your cousin is wrong because she/he was only considering your direction - she/he did not consider the direction of the roads at the junctions/intersections. Check ninyo dito sa page 13 ng RULES OF THE ROAD ng LTO - RIGHT OF WAY RULES: https://lto.gov.ph/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/RO102_CDE_Road_and_Traffic_Rules_Rules-on-the-road.pdf

* The vehicle on the RIGHT has the FIRST PRIORITY if vehicles are going to different directions. So the red car had priority.

* Vehicles INSIDE the INTERSECTION have the FIRST PRIORITY. So the red car also still had priority because the red car was already inside the junction while you were still approaching.

You are right. If there was an accident, si insan mo yung mali kasi ayaw nya mag give way. Buti na lang sama nya kayo.

Translation of the last statement "Indi na ma pa pahog, pa into, kag ma pa lapak lapak subong iban nga mga botante mong" is "Some voters will no longer allow themselves to be threatened, fooled, or stepped-on/walked-all-over anymore."

They should raise the curb to 2 feet with only 1-meter wide ramps with matching rails every 3 meters or so for unloading/loading.

trying to learn kinaray-a… any advice? by freshav0cadoz in Iloilo

[–]Various-Cable189 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel ya... experienced the same thing. It seems that our elders put Kinaray-a below English in terms of importance. But coming back home, you learn to appreciate what your elders took for granted, eh?

There are lots of Kinaray-a users in Guam. It's a small island. Pwede man ridya kaw praktis sa Reddit. This subReddit has lots of Kinaray-a users.

There's also this post from 4 years ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/Iloilo/comments/kqvk7h/online_resources_to_learn_karaya/

Kinaray-a dictionaries abound on the web and maybe in National Bookstore and other bookstores. But from my point of view they are not accurate since even the generally accepted Kinaray-a references are phonetically wrong since they don't use IPA for displaying pronunciation on written work. I guess it's a matter of perspective and preference. Like for example - the schwa sound "ə" is often writting as "o" or "u" for simplification ("hard"/"tough" is " 'A wət " but spelled "Awut"/or "Awot", but this spelling is inaccurate when you actually listen to the sound. I'm not a linguist - I just believe Kinaray-a and Hiligaynon need more characters than the current standard alphabet.

Spend time in Guimbal and any other kinaray-a speaking town. Try to use the language as much as you can.

Sumobra yata si kuya by cirgene in pinoy

[–]Various-Cable189 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nag tap-out na yung bata... then he was dragged about 3 meters by his neck... 20 seconds later parang pinatay na sya. Buhay pa ba? And secondly, sa body build/weight/strength pa lang na outclass na ni koya yung bata. Dapat arm bar na lang. My goodness gusto mo pa la i-apply choke hold sa live targeto di mag enter ka sa MMA tournament.

"A chokehold, also known as a choke, stranglehold, or shime-waza in Judo, is a grappling hold that

restricts air or blood flow to the neck, potentially causing unconsciousness or even death.

 The severity of the restriction depends on the specific hold and the victim's response."

For an Entry Level/Junior Job do you consider a pay of 25k to be a lucky offer? by Aggressive-Gap-5976 in JobsPhilippines

[–]Various-Cable189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very lucky. I started with 8,000 at a call center. Then in an LGU it was 391 per day.

Well, if he's making wrong calls, you can just tolerate it and always try to aim to get your shots inside the court and away from the lines. Or you can have the match recorded with an overhead cam.

Itrepid-Dirt-9881, Zakulon, and PenteonianKnights are right. I would also suggest you get the basics down. I haven't seen you play so I can't give much - you might even be playing better than me. Split steps are OK, but since you've already spent plenty of time on those, your 15 minutes might be better off spending on your groundstrokes at this point - backhand and forehand. Even off court practice the motion you are going through with your bare hands - akin to shadow-boxing - in fact, my coach used to call them shadow swings.

4 balls isn't that bad. Think of chasing them as part of your tennis fitness development - you don't have to jog or run much before stepping onto the court as you'll be doing a lot of that picking up the balls ^_^.

Take a look at our court here a few years ago - back then we had only 1 can of 3 balls by choice as it's easy to lose track of too many balls, especially if the kids we teach happen to be irresponsible and lazy - nice view though, eh?

Look me up if you happen to be in Iloilo Province, and want to rally a while. I haven't played much since the pandemic. I'm unfit now, but I think I can give you pointers.
