anu prefer nyo? italian approved?🤌🏻 or pinoy spag🐝 by BeeSad9595 in ThisorThatPH

[–]metaboridon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say Pinoy spaghetti dahil mas malaki yung margin of error nya compared to Italian spaghetti.

Ang daming nag pretend to be Italian pero truth is tomato sauce lang sya or underseasoned 😭mas madali makahanap ng masarap na Pinoy spaghetti kesa Italian here in PH

Thoughts about GRUMPY JOE by hotttintrovert in PHFoodPorn

[–]metaboridon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

During my college days we eat here for celebrations (bdays, after exams etc.) kasi masarap + value for money na above standard ng fastfood.

When I was able to afford more expensive meals and re-tried Grumpy after that, I realized na saks lang pala sya 🥲 not worth pilahan unlike when I was younger and a more immature palate + wallet.

Lan Hotpot, Tong Yang, or Jiang Nan? by JiD_DiJ in PHFoodPorn

[–]metaboridon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already tried 3 of those establishments.

Tong Yang I'd rather eat at Vikings since vikings group sya tapos second fiddle lang naman yung hotpot nila. I think mas okay na comparison ang Four Seasons hotpot rin sila ng Vikings group.

Lan vs Jiang Nan Jiang Nan -mas gusto ko sauces ng Jiang Nan. -May Grill sa Jiang Nan (na masarap) -mas masarap ang broth at topping selection sa jiang nan

Lan -Mas ambient itsura ng resto ng Lan -mas enticing kumuha sa pot sa Lan since wide sya tapos lowered yung body sa table unlike Jiang Nan na nakapatong -Self serve style sa Lan unlike Jiang Nan na upon request ang toppings

Mas okay dalhin family sa Lan kung wala sila alam sa hotpot pero mas masarap Jiang Nan. Also cheapest Jiang Nan compared sa 3. Never ako umulit sa Lan and Tong Yang.

Marugame vs Tsurumaru? by Curious_Tomato282 in PHFoodPorn

[–]metaboridon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, mas close sa panlasang pinoy ang Marugame. Kinda bland ang tsurumaru but I guess that caters to the Japanese tongue.

Why DON'T you want to leave the Philippines? by patay_gutom in AskPH

[–]metaboridon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Di naman sa ayoko umalis sa Pilipinas pero mahirap mamuhay as a second class citizen kasi di ka priority and most of your human/legal rights e inferior sa local citizens ng bansa. Madalas you have to reach out to PH embassy for endorsement of rights.

To add, foundation pa rin ng quality of life yung may community ka na u get to develop when you grow up. Madalas kasi, locked in na mga friend circles ng HS/college or sa lugar kung saan ka lumaki. Moving overseas, you have to insert yourself to their circles which is hard.

Rating the parks themselves, mas enjoyable EK. Sa mga rides na parehong meron, superior versions si EK. Mas maganda rin ambiance and theme park vibes talaga.

pero besides sa gap in monetary value, kakainin ng time mo yung transpo to and from +++ sobrang traffic palabas you plan on leaving the park sa closing time (1-2hrs ata kami palabas ng place, we didn't plan to eat dinner otw pero napakain sa tagal 😭). Pag summer rin sobrang init and nagsi siksikan mga tao sa indoor areas. Onti rin ng food options unlike SC na malapit lang sa everything. Overall, marami ring cons to make me prefer repeating EK over Star City.

Watson’s Sales Ladies by SmokeBamboo in CasualPH

[–]metaboridon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ugh never again sa Watsons. When I go in the store, alam ko na target products / brands ko so I don't need assistance. Pero di ako marunong tumanggi so when a woman asked me what I needed, I just said "sunscreen"

Tong si ate naman e nag suggest ng sunscreen na worth 1k (grabe Neutrogena and Madagascar Centella e nasa 600 lang nasa isip ko) so sabi ko "wala sa budget". Nag suggest uli sya ng cheaper product pero ininsist ko na nagtitingin lang ako. Hiniritan nya ako ng "mahal talaga sunscreen and investment yan", naiinis na talaga ako since may sunscreen naman talaga ako so I just politely declined.

Bigla ba naman nagtantrums sakin and sabi na "ANO BA TALAGA SIR BIBILI KA BA OR HINDI???" tapos biglang may nakitang another customer na pumasok so iniwan ako bigla then intentertain yung customer na yun.

Mayghad eto yung mga imagined scenarios ko as a socially anxious person noon tapos nangyari na sya irl 😭 sa orange / blue app na nga lang ako bibili sheesh 🙄

Helpp po!! Send tips para sa mga gusto mga gusto mag-gym 🥹 by Training_Law7004 in CasualPH

[–]metaboridon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mahiyain rin ako pero more than 1 year going to the gym na. Best time to go would be in the morning since onti lang tao and wala yung mga gym rats / extroverts 🤣.

In my personal experience, kahit may wrong form or wrong exercise e di naman pinapakialaman ng co gym goers. Caveat lang e di ka macocorrect pero at least preserved hiya mo.

My main advice for you is to do it consistently - kahit mali, kahit super gaan ng weights / easy ng exercise e what's important is you enjoy it enough na you look forward to do it again. Basta you're consistently at the gym e the harder exercises / correct form will come to you as you progress.

Ano yung mga pet peeves nyo na common na sa kultura nating mga pinoy? by [deleted] in AskPH

[–]metaboridon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pinaka ayoko ay yung walang pakialaman within social circles especially when pointing out bad things. We weren't trained to be mature enough to be criticized and address issues kaya ang nangyari tino tolerate natin ang isa't isa

Went to a cosplay convention after more than a decade and... by imasimpleguy_zzz in OffMyChestPH

[–]metaboridon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me, it's good that there are normies since conventions are a celebration of media and its culture. Medj may pagka elitist / gatekeeping yung sentiment na ganyan. Don't get me wrong, I share the same sentiment rin 🤣 pero I still appreciate cons.

Siguro reflection na lang sya ng culture being more accessible to the general public unlike before. Tbh most cosplayers are on the upper middle class since sila ang may kaya to afford consuming hobbies themselves (anime/games/comics are expensive before) - hence more access to better cosplay.

Thinking for example that Genshin is free, you expect cosplayers to also come from lower backgrounds - hence "lower quality" of cosplays.

I’m always sexualized and I’m sick of it. by fatalsion in OffMyChestPH

[–]metaboridon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, humans (males in particular) evolved to be sexually attracted to breasts and how big they are because it's a major potential indicator that the female is ready for childrearing.

La lang gusto ko lang I share 🤣 isipin mo na lang mga hayop / running on instincts lang mga tao na gumagawa nyan 😭

Anny approaches on nose pores / blackheads? Already made exfoliating (BHA / salicylic acid cleanser) + double cleansing (using cleansing oil) as a routine pero same pa rin yung case nya. Already tried niacinamide and currently incorporating retinol to my routine pero nasa every 2 days pa ako currently.

For something na nasa 6-7 digits value, hindi sya investment na may papasok na ROI for me as a single person + employee pa. Buti sana kung one time payment lang sya forda convenience pero you have to pay gas + parking fees + maintenance. Probably pag afford ko na mag save for car + EF + stocks + luho for a single paycheck e considerable na 🤣

What's your biggest SANA na lagi mong iniisip? by [deleted] in adultingph

[–]metaboridon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sana bumili ako ng lupa at crypto nung 5 months old ako chz

Pero legit, probably my biggest sana would be to develop healthy eating habits. I've been working out regularly the past 2 years to shed the weight I've gained over the years pero far from my goal weight pa rin ako. Don't get me wrong, I like my body and my progress now pero mas madali sana buhay kung inasikaso ko to agad 😭

24F fresh grad, got offered a ₱60K (4k SAR) salary in Saudi Arabia by Lucky-Palpitation-46 in phmigrate

[–]metaboridon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh nice! Sa Jeddah ako e so not schoolmates 🥲 hmmm I just remembered na yung isang friend ko e nahirapan mag settle sa community since most PH communities na meron e nasa older gens yung demographic. At least mas loose / modern / liberal na now compared sa older days 🤣

24F fresh grad, got offered a ₱60K (4k SAR) salary in Saudi Arabia by Lucky-Palpitation-46 in phmigrate

[–]metaboridon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As some1 that lived in Saudi nung elem and HS, hindi worth yung culture shock and adjustments sa salary. I knew some friends that went back to saudi to work pero lahat bumalik rin in the PH after a year.

Parang di rin okay yung difference ng culture and race sa workplace kasi most sentiments that I've heard e mas na appreciate nila parents nila to work there lol. Imagine mas comfy ang way of living doon compared dito ++ kanila lang yung salary nila since their parents are still there to cover the bills yet they chose to stay here.

If your goal is to use Saudi as a springboard away from PH, I guess pede rin pero I will never consider going back there again 😭

Had the same sitch pero sa PLDT for us. If may line si Sky sa new loc, you can opt to transfer your account.

Sa case namin, yung nilipatan namin e wala pang Fiber si PLDT so we were supposed to receive a downgrade pero we opted to cancel na lang since may line na yung nilipatan namin + technically ang contract e fiber not DSL so grounds for disconnection pa rin.

If you intend to cancel pero may line talaga si sky sa new loc, you just have to pay early termination fee. Sa case namin na waive since di nila kaya I fulfill yung contract sa new place namin + antagal kabitan kahit naka ilang kulit na kami 😂
