In response to Anonymous' comment

"fuck you too arrogant brat! insecure dick!"

I humbly present this wonderful comment for all the world to see. It says much about the writer's personality, doesn't it? I don't know about you, dear readers, but here is my impression of the poster. From now on, the pronoun he/she/him/her will be contracted to hs.

  1. Sa pagkakaalam ko, wala akong ginagawa sa kanya, at di ko nga siya minumura, pero minura niya ako. It's either ang laki ng galit sa akin ng taong ito o wala lang siyang magawa sa buhay niya kaya pinagtripan niya na lang itong blog ko sa kanyang random surfing.
  2. Sa tingin niya arrogante ako gayung wala naman akong ipinagyayabang. It's either malaki lang talaga ang topak ng taong ito o wala lang siyang magawa sa buhay niya kaya pinagtripan niya na lang itong blog ko sa kanyang random surfing.
  3. Sa tingin niya insecure ako gayung di ko na naman siya pinapakailaman sa buhay niya. Either insecure lang siya sa sarili niya o wala lang siyang magawa sa buhay niya kaya pinagtripan niya na lang itong blog ko sa kanyang random surfing.
  4. Wala man lang constructive criticism sa post niya, o kaya'y any hints on what I did to deserve such a hollow rebuke. Ngayon, di ko man lang malaman kung may ginagawa akong mali. As far as I know, I have done nothing wrong, and I have every reason to just continue being the person that I am now, even if he/she thinks that I am an "arrogant brat" and an "insecure dick". Either gusto niya lang magalit sa akin na wala man lang concretong dahilan o wala lang siyang magawa sa buhay niya kaya pinagtripan niya na lang itong blog ko sa kanyang random surfing.
  5. Ayaw niya magbigay ng pangalan. Either duwag siya at ayaw niya mag-claim ng responsibility sa pinagsusulat niya, o wala lang siyang magawa sa buhay niya kaya pinagtripan niya na lang itong blog ko sa kanyang random surfing.

Para sa kung sino mang nagpost na Anonymous (ayaw mo nun? Famous ka agad dahil sa akin!), one (and only one) of the following two replies should apply to you:

  • Sa tingin mo mas nakaka-angat ka sa akin at pwede mo na akong mura-murahin ng ganyan? Mas banal ka pa ba sa Santa Mariang Birhen at kaming mga ordinaryong tao na wala namang ginagawang masama (wala nga akong ginagawa, di nga ako nagpopost sa blog na ito eh) ay pwede mo na tratuhin na parang mas mababa pa sa hayop? Alam mo, pare, nakakalungkot yang ginagawa mo. Eto, pare, kwento ko sa iyo yung kaibigan ko dati. Tawagin na lang natin siyang Miss Skillet. Pare, mahigit limang taon na kaming magkaibigan ni Miss Skillet, iisipin mo na just a few months ago ginawa rin niya lahat ng ginagawa mo ngayon. Magkagalit na kami; over what, I do not know. Ngayon ayoko na siya pakialaman, she has her own life and I have mine, di ko makakalimutan ang lahat ng kabutihan niya sa akin (for the rest of my life, i will rescue earthworms, because of what she did for me), pero di ko na rin siya mapapatawad sa kanyang mga kasalanan. Miss na miss na miss ko na siya, totoo, pero alam kong lalo lang ako masasaktan kung babalik ako sa kanya. Hanggang ngayon, galit siya sa akin at feeling ko na feeling niya na ang laki ng pagkakasala ko sa kanya. Basta alam ko na walang akong ginawang malisya laban sa kanya, at kung gusto niya isipin iyon, bahala na siya sa buhay niya basta wag lang rin niya ako papakialaman. Pare, kung ito mangyayari sa iyo, maaawa ako sa iyo, di mo kailangan gawin ito, bumalik ka sa Diyos, magmuni ka at pag-isipan mo kung ano nangyayari sa buhay mo at kung paano mo naaapekto ang iba't ibang tao sa paligid mo.
  • Hey, dude! RANDOM BLOG GRAFFITI ROCKS! WOOHOO! (halata bang ginagawa ko rin? he he he he) (^_-) Glad you enjoyed the site. Bisita ka rin dito: "The Dullest Blog in the World" (http://www.wibsite.com/wiblog/dull/) My most favorite blog! Pag nahanap ko blog mo, makakatikim ka rin sa akin! MWA HA HA HA HA!!!
