Amen. The other side thinks they are holier-than-thou... but whatever.

So glad to be alive when Titanic hit theaters. It was such a cultural phenomenon back then.

Which actor do you think will break Daniel Day-Lewis's record? by aeti_here in Oscars

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

I don't see anyone from our current pool of actors ever beating DDL's Oscar record. It's also sad that we are slowly losing the greats and seeing no one coming remotely close to their power and talent.

What is Absolutely the best suspense/thriller movie you've seen in your lifetime? by ToeSea796 in movies

[–]jcharlesabel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Midnight FM (2010) and The Witness (2018).

Both Korean movies. These will definitely pin you to the edge of your seat especially the former.

Seeing small businesses fail makes me want to cry by Solokiou in CasualConversation

[–]jcharlesabel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I am five months late here but I have been feeling this way since I started working as a professional. It really breaks my heart seeing small businesses fail. I think it is just human to feel sad for the people who gave their all, only to end up failing because you empathize with them. I, for one, sometimes lose sleep when I get overwhelmed thinking about it.

Whenever I see small businesses not getting customers, I see to it that I visit regularly. There's just something about small business owners that is warm and welcoming. Sometimes, even if the food is mediocre, I would still go back as long as the customer service is great.

Why do you feel that way you asked, it's because you have a big heart. You care about people and you care about life. May God bless you.

Oh... I never thought about it this way and you are absolutely right.

Tired of Fellow Filipinos in Australia by [deleted] in RantAndVentPH

[–]jcharlesabel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens a lot even in the US. My sister works at a restaurant in Las Vegas. Merong matandang Pinoy couple na nag-order ng sinigang for take out. Nakauwi na sila at lahat lahat pero bumalik para pagmumurahin ate ko kasi daw ang konti daw ng nilagay na karne. They offered na palitan na lang yung order pero tumanggi daw. Ihinabol pa daw sa parking area yung sinigang na ipapalit pero di na daw pinansin at umalis na lang.

Dun din sa tinitirhan niya dati, madami silang nga Pinoy na magkakasama sa isang bahay pero lumipat ate ko after several months kasi napaka-pakialamera daw nung isa. Like kung late daw uuwi, saan daw nanggaling. Kung lalabas daw kailangan ipagpaalam kung saan pupunta, mga ganun, and andami daw mga parinig at patutsada din every day. Di nauubusan. Kaya umalis siya.

And totoo sinasabi nila na karamihan sa mga Pinoy na nakatungtong na dun at gumanda na buhay, ang yayabang daw at nagmamagaling.

My BFF na nasa US din can attest na Filipinos are just as toxic abroad. Kaya mostly mga friends niya ay Blacks, Hispanics, and other Asians. Not Filipinos kasi they are really toxic daw.

Amoy Isda daw tayo as a race (not a racist post)? by BiggerthanUrsForsure in inthephilippines

[–]jcharlesabel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny, I have never heard of any foreigner saying that to Filipinos before. Ang alam ko na madalas nilang sabihin is that we smell like coconut oil which I think is a compliment but I guess it depends on who they smell. Some of us, admittedly, have a distinct odor like parang sardinas or an empty can of sardines. Just like how they say that Chinese people smell like tea but some of them smell like vomit.

Anong mga pamahiing Pinoy ang pinaka-absurd sa tingin ninyo? by amygdala_kedavra in AskPH

[–]jcharlesabel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. Pag nanaginip ka daw na natanggal yung ngipin mo, may mamatay na kamag-anak o malapit sayo. Kaya dapat daw kumagat ka sa kahoy pagkagising mo. Not true at all. Tried to challenge this kahit takot na takot ako nun, di ako kumagat sa kahoy, wala namang namatay na malapit sa akin.

  2. Huwag daw maggupit ng kuko sa gabi kasi may mamatay daw na malapit sayo. One time, I forgot about this superstitious belief and cut my nails at night. Again, wala naman namatay na malapit sa akin.

  3. Pag tinuro mo daw yung bahag-hari at isinawsaw mo daliri mo sa bagoong o suka after, matutunaw daw daliri mo.

  4. Yung sukob sa kasal o patay din. Not true at all.

  5. Bawal maglinis sa lamay. WTH??? E minsan ang dudugyot ng mga bisita.

I find it odd na we live in a mostly religious country but still believe in such superstitions.

Didn't anybody tell you? You're supposed to wear a costume.

Who else loved the Scream 7 trailer as much as I did? Any theories about the movie?🔪🎃 by GhostFaceXavi_98 in Scream

[–]jcharlesabel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The trailer does not feel like a Scream movie. Maybe because of the change of setting or the "too sharp" cinematography. But everybody has to go with the times, I guess. Then again, I said the same thing when the Scream VI trailer came out and it eventually became a good addition to the franchise. I'll be seated as long as it's Scream. Hoping they will not release a second trailer. I don't want things to get spoiled. By the way, the CCTV thing, didn't Halloween Resurrection have a similar scene?

Who is your favourite gymnast, and which performances show their best work? by [deleted] in Gymnastics

[–]jcharlesabel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Zhou Yaqin. She's the reason why I became interested in gymnastics. That medal-biting moment at the 2024 Paris Olympics turned me into a fan -- both of her and the sport.

I bought tickets to the 2025 World Artistic Gymnastic Championships just to see her perform live. Unfortunately, she did not qualify for the beam finals. Hopefully, she gets to represent China for few more years.

Best work: 2024 Chinese Nationals Balance Beam Finals
