considering the joke that all of our able bodied teachers, doctors and other intelligent people go overseas to be nursemaids or something is a real problem.
 
it’s a money thing (overqualified but the overseas money is good compared to the appropriate job but less money locally)

@arcanedarness  
First hand account and also there’s me being one.

@Albus Fahrenheits  

 
A bold claim. Do you have a reasonably-sized random sample of Filipinos from all Philippines and a sensible metric for intelligence?

@OptimusPrimevil
 
That revolution was a joke to begin with. She was only riding on the death of her husband.
 
Personally, I don’t trust the fate of the Philippines to any Filipino. Most Filipinos are idiots. All the smart ones leave the country.

@Albus Fahrenheits  
oh so that’s what it’s going to be ‘at least he did something for the country and you didn’t?’ by that logic ‘at least i won’t fuck up the country like he did’.
 
also about the war on drugs, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal if he did the same for everyone else.
 
he tried to give the abu sayyaf an out for their crimes rather than wiping them out after all. even when they refused he still hasn’t done anything significant about them.
 
back on my original vent: is the edza revolution anniversary worth celebrating this year if the reason for that anniversary to happen technically ‘won’?

@SeraphimDawn  
UH-OH, BIG PROBLEM

I want my Prime Minister to retire.  
The fact that he stole money and got away with it annoys me.
 
He probably didn’t because that sounds stupid but it still doesn’t explain the fact that so much money is lost because of his incompetence.

@OptimusPrimevil  
Say what you want, he’s done more for this country than you most likely ever will.
 
On another note: People keep complaining about all the deaths in the new administration. Our president declare war on drugs. You can’t declare war and not expect to have casualties.

FUCK! My toilet is leaking again!

@Albus Fahrenheits  
won’t abusing the presidency for personal gain count as treason anyway?

@OptimusPrimevil  
Are you gonna be one of those guys?
 
Serving time in the army and becoming a president warrants a hero’s burial. We have rules for that and ignoring them only leads to chaos.

@Background Pony #4CFE  
Fuck Sam Hyde for so many reasons. Why did adult swim have to give him a tv show?
 
And yes “irony” is a cancer on entertainment and also the internet.

@ghostfacekiller39  
“Ironee” is a cancer,just look at Sam Hyde career.What happened to honesty instead of going full insecure and hiding what you truly mean behind fifty layers of obscure inside jokes. Look up David Foster Wallace-The Problem with Irony on YouTube btw

2016 started with a sour note and ran mostly on shit I’ll admit.  
But it ended with a great crowning moment in a bang IMO.
 
And I anticipate it will only get better… :)

@OptimusPrimevil  
More people know celebrities and enjoy them.
 
if one of the faceless thousands slaughtered in terrorists attacks last year were as known and were celebrities in their own right, people would probably be sad over them too.
 
But they’re just bodies for the pile.

@Spritejunkee  
oh i know but like i said, somehow the celebrity deaths are more historically relevant than major disasters and stuff. or at least it seems that way (it’s mostly internet memes about how bad 2016 was because of celebrity deaths).
 

 
 
In a couple of weeks, we will be celebrating the anniversary of the ouster of a dictator. In the past couple of years or so, people are considering stopping celebrating it due to feeling it wasn’t worth doing anymore. This year however, there is a much more valid reason why not to: the ousted dictator getting a hero’s burial in the cemetery for heroes.
 
said dictator hasn’t been cleared of any charges but that alone is already a big f’u to the victims of his regime.
 
is it still worth celebrating even though the reason for the celebration technically got the last laugh?

@Pacific Glow  
so if 2016 is bad because trump is elected, imagine when he actually gets to actually be in power in 2017.
 
though my nitpick with ‘2016 is the worst year’ mostly comes from the criteria for worst was ‘celebrity deaths’. there are bigger tragedies but somehow a celebrity dying is more ‘important’?

@OptimusPrimevil  
People would have considered 2016 a bad year even without the celebrity deaths.
 
@TheHappySpaceman  
But I was agreeing with you.

@TheHappySpaceman  
The lone pone.

@OptimusPrimevil  
That and Trump being elected. I mean, this was doubtlessly a bad year for the world, but it wasn’t for me personally and it gets tiring seeing everyone around me circlejerking about how bad it was, especially when it’s likely that 2017 will be much, much worse.
 
@Pacific Glow  
For this scenario to work, who would you be: the lone guy who liked 2016, or one of the others who didn’t like it?
 
@Spritejunkee  
Way to prove my point. ._.

@Spritejunkee  
no no, it didn’t suck for him but whenever he says so, people say other wise and that he should agree with them.
 
imagine getting a lot of personal achievements in 2016 but since 2016 sucks for “everybody” they force you to say it sucked for you also.

@TheHappySpaceman  
2016 sucked if you heard any news (which seemed unavoidable for me).

@TheHappySpaceman  
Me every time I talk about 2016.

@TheHappySpaceman  
mostly because of their favorite celebrities dying?
