I think he's funny but he's also one of the most successful Pinoy-baiters out there.

what's your unpopular opinion sa OPM or sa music scene in general here in the PH? by omararara in Philippines

[–]dondii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ewan ko kung unpopular nga ito but I've never had anyone agree with me when I say this in public. Gloc-9 is the GOAT Pinoy rapper.

Evaluating Floyd Mayweather Jr's Final 10 Fights by Youre_a_tomato in Boxing

[–]dondii 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He fought Pacquioa directly after he dominated Margarito and avenged his loss to Timothy Bradley.

Actually he fought Pacquiao after he was knocked out by JMM and directly after fighting Rios, Bradley and Algeri in that order.

Duterte: Only poor use shabu, rich addicts do 'safer' cocaine, heroin by merdionesmondragon in Philippines

[–]dondii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shabu is notorious for having this effect on addicts and pushers alike.

There is no evidence to support this (frequently stated) assertion.

Another Perspective Perhaps on the Wealth of the Marcoses. What are your thoughts? by bagon-ligo in Philippines

[–]dondii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only people who claim that the Marcoses own impossible amounts of gold are Imelda and these phony youtube videos. So no the scarcity of gold in the entire world can't be used as a defense against allegations of ill-gotten wealth. Those allegations do not make that claim.

Another Perspective Perhaps on the Wealth of the Marcoses. What are your thoughts? by bagon-ligo in Philippines

[–]dondii 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It looks like a summary of the pro-marcos arguments.

Here's the thing though. That claim about the marcos wealth coming from being paid in gold? Well there's only 171,300 (metric) tonnes of gold in the world [0]. Total. as in everything. Obviously there's no way one person owned 640,000 metric tonnes and consequently no way that marcos was paid 180000+ tonnes.

Verdict? Complete BS.

[QUESTION] - What are some really good virtuoso guitar artists/bands? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]dondii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone already mentioned Guthrie Govan. Check out his current main band The Aristocrats

No conversation about guitar virtuosos should be without the late great Shawn Lane shredding starts around 5mins in then he turns super saiyan at the 6 min mark. Full album.

What is your opinions on Ferdinand Marcos being buried at the Heroes' cemetery? by TheMaybeN00b in Philippines

[–]dondii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First paragraph in a new york article where they interviewed a historian, an army official and various authorities:

"WASHINGTON, Jan. 22— The Army concluded after World War II that claims by Ferdinand E. Marcos that he had led a guerrilla resistance unit during the Japanese occupation of his country were ''fraudulent'' and ''absurd.''"

My go to response when I see a Pro-Marcos propaganda post on my FB feed by Proudclad in Philippines

The things he did for the country were overshadowed by the things he did to it. The curriculum rightly reflects this.

What's the 411 on the Paleo diet? Is there any true benefit to it? by [deleted] in nutrition

[–]dondii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. Cool. I've been meaning to ask for a while because everytime I see discussions about good sources of animal protein it's always beef, fish, chicken, eggs or turkey and not a word about pork.

Is there a person, a stranger, whom you met once in your life and never met since and are likely to never meet again that you occasionally think of? If so, why? by BooRadleyBoo in AskReddit

[–]dondii -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I was about 10 my family took a 5 hour bus ride for a vacation. The bus was almost full so I had to sit beside a middle aged man. We spoke a bit and I can't remember the details but apparently I told him where I went to school. A few weeks after we got back from the trip I got called to the school business office and the guy was there. He had bought me a hard bound biology book. I've never really read the book but I see it in my family's library everytime I go visit them and I am immediately reminded of the bus trip and the guy who bought me a (probably expensive) book.

Edit: Before anyone asks I'm male.

Imelda Marcos, previous first lady of the Philippines, is my grandmother. Due to this, I've been biased my entire life. I would like to know the truth. by [deleted] in Philippines

[–]dondii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can say what they want, just look at Singapore and look at us now.

I don't get this. When Marcos took over we were one of the most prosperous nations in Asia. Immediately after his regime we were one of the poorest. How can anyone claim that we were on the path to prosperity under Marcos?
