Consumer Demand

Merry Christmas Everyone! :)

If you celebrate that is. If not, then.....go to sleep!

Anyhow. With this season of love and joy, it is TIME FOR SOME RANT!

I have just recently switch phone service provider.

ALAS! For the longest time, i was convinced to switch. Not by competition but because of their own damn policy.

Yes I am talking about Globe's Fair usage policy. And in a nut shell, it SUCKS!

For a very long time, i was a "loyal" customer. And to say at least, I was happy with the service.

It was a happy relationship at the beginning. Whenever Globe does something like a promo, i supported. Like a true friend, i would back Globe up and say something like, "Kaya mo yan!" and pats it's shoulder for re-assurance.

But fate is sometimes cruel.

I thought I have a friend. I thought I knew Globe.

But for a long time also, he was just a crook hiding beneath the "Blue Starry Sky".

A wolf in sheep's clothing.

Globe is just another MOTHERFUCKINGCROOKSELLINGJUNK! Like some shady merchant, to sell some stuff it would resort to good advertising. And like any good advertising, it is just some crappy product covered with sweet lies!

How could you advertise something with a label "Unlimited Call and TEXT" or "Unlimited Surfing" when it has a limit??!!! 

What the F???!!!

And I would not have known about this shit if I didn't become curios on why after just 4 hours of surfing on which i have a acquired a 24 hours unlimited surf, i have received a notification stating that I have reached my daily max download of 800 motherfucking MB and it would resume tomorrow! You burned me!

Ok here is what happened.

I register for the SuperSurf for just a day at around 10 pm, because i have considered the off peak hours to be faster, which would supposedly end tomorrow the same time.

Lets say i began surfing until past 12am and got disconnected. I have checked my usage and it is around 400mb.

Then I reconnected again and used it till 2am and i got disconnected again. Checked again the usage and it is around 400 mb again. OK?

I tried to reconnect again, several times, but still to no avail. I would have tried it for several times more but, thankfully, I have received a notification that i have reached my max and it would resume the next day.

The next day??! By that time, my subscription would be over!

And I have suffered also the same when i registered for the unlimited call and text. After that, I could not register anymore.

Instead of calling the customer service representative, of which was my previous job, because I know that they would just be making a report, and or saying like canned answers. I have researched on the internet if i was not the first one to have that kind of problem.

And it lead me to this wonderful group:

http://getsatisfaction.com/myglobe/topics/i_have_been_blocked_to_use_any_of_the_globe_promos

O how lovely the internet community is!

How can you advertise something that says you can text and call to a million subscribers when you blocked numbers from your paying customers!

And under your usage policy, how can you tell if a number is sending spam messages, or calls?? do your read their messages??

My solution is, instead of joining some FB group ousting the FUP because I know that would be a waste of time, I switched to SMART! :)

And coincidentally, Philip De Franco was also saying something like this about Net Neutrality.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZxtrMEmmNo

Hey if the government Can't protect its own citizens from being blatantly LIED to, consumer demand is the answer. Leave that service, get out of Globe!

Maybe they'll listen if half of their customer switched! :)

BAHALA NA SI BATMAN!

I was driving from my rented place in Quezon City to my Home in Bulacan in which I have discovered the secret of LIFE.

JK.

I have discovered that some people (You might call prejudice on this one, but I am not naive) who might be hiding something illegal or is paranoid that a cop might be following them or keeping an eye on them, always looks at the driver then at the plate number. Or vice versa.

Also. blah blah blah..

The emotion has faded. And so my train of thought.

I have to remind myself to have a voice recorder whenever i have thought of something at that moment so as not to keep forgetting what i wanted to right.

Anyway. What I really wanted to ask you friends under the sea is What will make you LIKE BATMAN??

My answer net time! Peace and Justice YO!

Rants: Health Service my big fat @$s!

OH!....ooooooH.... I still don't know what to write because I am still in the moment of recalling the passion, the emotions, most specifically anger, about a story of my LovesyKadoodsy who work as a voluntary nurse in a government hospital that we would nicknamed "Tala Hospital"

*Tala means Star*

And here goes the story.

An accident just happened. It was between a motor bike and a Jeepney*

*Jeepney is a moving vehicle that kills*

And so, because the Jeepney is made of pure metal, it would win.

But I don't know much about the specifics of the incident just that the motor bike rider is seriously hurt.

Broken bones and chest fracture. That would hurt.

Now here comes the climax:

Of course, after the incident the biker was rushed to the NEAREST hospital, that we will hide in a nick "NORTH CALOOCAN STUPID AS HELL HOSPITAL" to get treated so that he would still be ALIVE!!!!

Guess what?

HE WAS NEVER F@&*ING ADMITTED TO THE F@&*ING HOSPITAL!!!

That is why when he was rushed again to the next nearest hospital, the "TALA HOSPITAL", he was already DEAD!!! DEAD!!!

SAY WHAT?!!!!

What could be the reason why they could not admit that poor guy?!

My HEARTY LovesyKadoodsy told me that she thinks the guy was never even given a first aid treatment before referring it to other hospital?

WTF?!!

Why would anyone or institution not give the service that they were committed to? WHY would you deny someone the help during times of emergency?

If you were in that situation? Wouldn't you be pissed?
NO! You can't be pissed, because you are already DEAD!

That guy COULD be ALIVE right NOW!

OOOOOOohhhhh....I need my special power right now......haduken!

Inspired

Dear my friends under the sea and my imaginary fans,

When will you be real? LOL

Anyway, I am quiet reading a lot of mangas and watching a few animes, and I am still wondering when I will have the chance to make my life that exciting like that of those heroes I read?

Like, come on! I have all the qualities of a manga hero!

I am happy, sometimes angry with this life.

I don’t comb my hair anymore, so that when I sleep, it is the same as when I wake up, cause anime’s hair doesn’t change that much.

I am a dreamer.

I…am…normal..LOL

But I am still waiting for the moment that my powers will wake up.

Or when I will save an old man from a gang of thugs, then the old man turned out to be some kind of a ninja and started teaching me the secret art of haduken!

Bored as usual.

O crap! I’m getting fat!

Strength

I really don't feel like writing anything...but i did.
I also don't feel my legs because of a long day of driving...but i do.
I also don't feel my brain...but i didn't..?!

Doesn't make sense..but it does.
Thought of something funny..but I can't.
Wanted to stop..but it won't.

Wachagugldfglkfjedieowsoidjf....but i do.

LOL! I really don't know what to think tonight. It might be a side-effect of drinking Redbull and eating 1 slice of Kit Kat. Earlier this evening, I was driving my mom and my sis back from a school in Pampanga where she enrolled to study how to kill old people. Slowly. But because I get out of bed too early for my health (I slept around 3 and woke up at 6 I think), Mr. Sandman has finally come to take the dept from me.

But I wasn't ready to give up yet, so while I still can, I get out of the expressway to a Shell station to buy me some STRENGHT.

argsjkagasgaksgsjagajkgasjkhgjsdfa.

I have all the energy to write myself a good thick novel. But my brain is fried. adfgasdfasdf

I need a booze.

What a Tiring Movie!!

I don't know if I share the same sentiments with other movie goers with this, but 1408 was FREAKING AWESOME!


Now if you think otherwise...DEAL WITH IT!!

Also it was one of the most tiring movies I have ever seen, because even up to the last minute of the movie where Samuel Jackson was going to give a box to the Wifey, I was still shocked! And I farted. I am not ashamed to write it because I know that the ones reading blogs are just my imaginary readers who don't care at all on what i would say :)

Any way, whoo., I thought I was going crazy with that movie! Nicely done! Kudos to the director and cast of the movie and also to Stephen King who wrote it :) LAVVV IT!

Every minute I was hooked!

....Starting...

Getting excited once again! :))

There were lots of Eureka! moments and more Ah-Doy! ones.

But it was expected and I was not surprised on how boring it was doing nothing, for a very long time. As you might know my friends of a long time that exist only in my head, that i have resigned from my second job and right now I am enjoying my time dedicated only for myself, not to any boss or customers. But the animal inside told me that I must do something because I might start to decay and be eaten by the vortex of non-existance, or, just get bored and I think that the time that I am blessed with should be use in a productive activities. That is why I have thought of many things like having my own business, or be a model, drug lord, smuggler..etc..

KABLOOM! God has answered my desires. :)

First: a good friend of mine has this food business that he is willing to lend me for a price and I think that would be a fine start
Secondly: while I was with my friends during our get-together, my baby was born. :)) bwahahah! For now I would have to hide it with the inititals I.M.
I just hope that what we are planning and hoping right now would prosper. With the help of kuya jun who is very bihasa in this kind of work and also with former choir mates, the future is looking bright :)

oh boy....

Jump Start

What am I doing with my life...?


It is exactly 1 moth ago since I have resigned from my second job as a technical support in a call centre company. During those few days after I left, I was planning on many things. I want to go in a better shape, brush up with my knowledge because I want to get my license in ECE and spiritually, read the bible again. But days have gone by; I am slowly being pulled on being a full time bum.


Something has to be done.

On Vacation

For all the snails and fishes in the sea..because no people ever cared about my blog...huhuhu...i was on vacation for sometime that is why i wasn't able to put up my blogs... ok..

ps. don't be eaten by sharks..

Movie Review: Kick Ass!

Movies!


Although I’m really not a movie critic when it comes to being in authority to say what’s good and bad, what works and does not, and whatnot, but I really do love watching,


Anything from movies to television, to Animés and cartoons, I watch them all.



I’ll even watch you getting naked and such, LOL!


And to let you know, movies, especially Hollywood films, were not created for the artsy-fart-sy kind of people, who likes to dissect every scene and make nasty comments about it. Hollywood movies were created for the general audience, from all ages, to any kind of background. It is supposed to create amazement to the viewers, and not an elementary school field trip to learn the stars and etc.


And by experience, most of the time, when some movie critic says that a particular movie sucks or is really good, I experience the opposite. J


So now let’s get on with it.


Kick Ass! Really Kicked ASS!


For those who have watched it, through pirated DVDS, DIE! You cockroach! Don’t kill the movie industry and let the fans suffer because you lazy son of a buttocks doesn’t want to pay and wants everything for free. Support this kind of movies. Don’t give me that cow dung that movie producers are already rich! You imbecile! If this people don’t see that the movies they are making are not being recognized by the people through the revenues they are making, they might stop doing these awesome movies, and thus, letting the fans suffer. Die you pirate mongers! You support these illegal activities, you support the criminals! So you better die with them.



If you can’t afford, then don’t!


If you have watched it in the movie house because the DVD has not been released yet, you are awesome! Keep up the good work my friend!


Ok, now for the real review of this movie:


“It’s really (In a high pitch) *Awesome*!”


And that is my personal movie review! See you next TIME!

It is thursday, April 22, 2010, 12:18pm +800 time zone


Yey! i've got internet back!


a backgrounder, i work in a company where the LAN connection is secured and filtered by the company. that means i can't access the WWW.


so our group has a wireless DSL installed in our area so we could have access to Facebook and such, and in the past few days, our internet connection was broken.


but we've got it back, and that means a very long time catching up with my youtube video subscriptions.


YEY! SHAY and RAY and PHIL and CTFXC :)

Lazy Tuesday

Lazy Tuesday

Which means, boring, long, slow and imagining that something exciting would happen, like burning computer monitor or CPU, or, burning cubicle, burning paper, burning trash bins, burning water dispenser (?), anything burning would be fine. LOL

That brings me to a thought, “Never take anything for granted.” Yup, that sure brings my spirit up, and my guilt. I mean, some people, or most of them, don’t have the luxury of having this extra time that I have, the extra energy that is burning (over used word for the day, “burning” LOL) inside me.

That being said, I’m still bored.

Oh! Michael Bublé in the background, “Christmas Song”

“Chestnuts roasting on an open fire….” (I know, its mid April and I’m still listening to “Christmas” songs)

*sigh*

Hmmm…I wonder. I think I have changed a bit. Maybe, I was caught being in this corporate world, where deadlines and greasing the elbow for rush projects and meetings are a common site, that is why, doing nothing seems boring to me.

LOL! Who am I kidding?! I’m just being paid to wear semi-formal attire every day, sit in my cubicle, face the monitor, and get bored. LOL! 

Seems like a dream job to me! And that again brings me to the thought I should never take anything for granted, including this privilege life.

I’m not saying that I should never look for a better alternative to what I have now, or being stagnant and lazy and letting things just go by.

It’s being happy in whatever circumstances and events you are currently in because there are more people who would be very willing to trade places with you.

“If this day seems like crap, and the world is taking a shit on you,

If this day I can’t be great and I can’t show my best,

If I can’t excel, 

I’ll just survive,

Doing my thing,

Learning,

Changing,

Because tomorrow would be another great day full of opportunities,
 

I’ll be the one taking a shit at everyone (LOL)

Taking the world in stride!”

 

Letter of Intent

Dear Sir/Ma’am,

My name is Baktin De Babski, currently being employed (unemployed) at Ngasab Corp.. I am the team leader of this group and have worked for 30 years. I am writing to express my interest in a job position at your company as a food taster.

I have learned in an ad that you are currently hiring, and I would like to be part of one of the progressive companies here in the Philippines.

Please call me at 02-10-ako or email me at gutomp@ko.com; it would be my pleasure to discuss any details regarding the job position I am applying.

Sincerely yours,

Baktin De Babski

 

Movie Review: Ninja Ass ass in

*Listening to THAT’S LIFE by Michael Bublé*

Oh yeah! Love that choir intro!

Excerpt from the song that I like:

“I say that's life
& as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stompin' on your dreams
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine ol' world keeps spinning 'round”

All Michael Bublé - That's Life lyrics, artist names and images are copyrighted to their respective owners. All Michael Bublé - That's Life song lyrics might be restricted for educational and personal use only.

Oh by the way, I’m going to review a movie today,

Ninja Assassin (2009 yeah it’s old, and last night was the only time I had to see it. Bleh!)

Ohmygoodylishiouses!

That was my most favorite action/ninja/martial arts movie EVAR!

Though I’m not much of a fan of gory and blood, especially those that show body parts, this was an exception. Although I would not recommend this to any kids, but the fight scenes was just awesome! Love it!

My most favorite part was the battle between Raizo and the Ozuno (the leader guy?), where they would do ninja stuff and disappear right in front of the fight. Really awesome!

The story was pretty good in itself, although I could have been more better if it was deeper, like for example Raizo’s first job was to assassinate this kingpin guy?

And after that, he just left his group. I guess it could have been better that it was not his first job, like he is a veteran ninja and learns that the group he belongs to are a bunch of homosexual creeps who has a fetish with young kids and likes to wear pajamas when they kill people. And the only way to inherit the title of grand master ninja is to “do” it with all of the older ninja dudes.

LOL! Not quite the expected right? Which would have been a better twist!

That’s it for my movie review!

Watch out for more.

Trouble

Liar Liar was supposed to be posted last April 13 but for some reasons there were always error popping up.

Follow me :)

Liar Liar

Liars

Nobody wants to be tag like one. It means that you can’t be trusted and things that you do bring suspicion and doubt to everyone that surrounds you. And I have committed one.

In defense to my action, here is the story.

I was busy with my office work, Youtube and Facebook, when an officemate approached me, asking if I would be willing to give her a favor. Of course, I had to tell that truth that I am currently busy with stuff and only finding the cure for aids and cancer would stop me from doing what I do, or if it is the end of the world. If it was the end of the world, Youtube and Facebook would be the last thing that I would do, if you know what I mean. *Wink*

But I am willing to hear what she has to say, so, she told me that “This guy”, we will call him “This guy” in reference to those male people that I don’t want to reveal the real name. Although I have the option of revealing names because although this site is public, I would doubt that someone would be really reading this. But I will play safe.

Ok, back to the story.

She told me that “This guy”, which I don’t know if they have a relationship, but she told me that they don’t, but I think they have something because what she wants me to do is something that people in a relationship would do. Dizzy?

“This guy” has a job that involves the sea, and he is a man. So, he told my officemate that he would be leaving already. No problem with that, she understands because that is his job. But the twist is that she has a hunch that “This guy” did not leave the country, and, as I could see it, “This guy” doesn’t want to see her.

OH! MY! Goodyloohoohoo!

Tsismax to its!

And that draws my curiosity.

I know that curiosity kills the cat. But I am not a cat. That means I don’t have to be killed.

I asked her what she wants me to do, and she said that if I could call the Cell phone number using our landline and look for him and just make up stories.

Oh! I have to lie.

I am not good at it *Wink*, but I have an idea on what to say when looking for someone.

“Hello, this is the morgue, and we are looking for “This guy”.”

LOL! Nope. Just kidding. Although I could try it next time.

“Hello, this is Alien Bank Customer Service; may I speak with “This Guy”?”

“Yes, this is him, what is it?”

*Oh my tootsie roll!*

“Uhm…*now what?*… we are offering credit cards. Would you like to get one?”

“Credit card? *I am really hoping that he would say no* sure, what are the requirements?”

*watdapak*

“Ok the requirements are…”

Then I hung up. *whew*

Ok, gossip is not what this blog means. Although I know some of you would like to know what happens after that.

Nope. No one died. Yet.

Does my action justify what “This guy” did? James Bond does that. Or other super heroes and “Agents”. But, for me, I think it is acceptable to some extent, but not justifiable or wholly acceptable. If it does, this world is very ugly and scary. People would never trust another people. That beats the purpose and meaning of “Society” and “Civilization” or “Relationship”, and most importantly, “LOVE”. A society of liars.

Comments?

Deep-ish

What is your life? How are you living it? For me, being alive, as a human, is not just having the capability of breathing, or just simply surviving. We are greater and better than animals. I don’t know, or would never know what it would be like if we are just like simpleminded creatures.

When i was young, naive and everything, i would never understand why there should be war, or hatred and crimes. Why can’t we go on not hurt every people we met? Why can’t we be just like ants? They just do what they need to do without having to think of anything else, like greed, or corruption.

And...well...uhm...i can’t continue on my last statement there. That would be another topic to discuss.

So, my point is, Bakit kung kalian mo kailangan na mag Withdraw, Tsaka naman nakadown ang mga atm?!

Reco Neck

“It’s only hard at the start.” A cliché, but somehow how it’s true whenever I want to start writing. Whether it is an email to clients of partners (work stuff, you know?), or some book reports back at high school and college, or even composing lyric to a music, and this blog, normally, it would take, hours or even days, (Yes, days! Or years, just take a look at the dates of the blogs), just to make that short phrase to keep the ball moving.
Hmmmm...To think about it...ok let me rephrase that.
It is hard to start writing something that is what really is bothering inside my head, or what is currently seizing my interest. I guess it’s because I have too many things to say or, I have already created in my mind what goes to the main body of my subject, and thus I have no idea on how to put a start on my topic.
Anyway, (lol! See, I made an intro, which is somehow, not relevant to my topic...Ok maybe a little), so to start I want to introduce myself. I am Elromantico. I am the Captain or El Kapitan of my ship Chukurukubamba. The Chukurukubamba is an intergalactic super ship that cruises this part of space that is capable of nothingness to anythingness. As the El Kapitan, it is my duty to report everything important that would be happening to... nobody... lol.
So what made me start this blog? My brain of course! Actually, because sometimes I have a some free time, and, instead chewing a pencil, my desk or chair, I decided to write about something of everything.
What do i expect out of this? Lots of money... or nothing. I am really not expecting out of this simple letter that i am making. I am not expecting anyone to read it also. Just having the experience and the opportunity to release the inner tension (aside from m@s7u5b@71n6, which is not appropriate at the office, lol), the capability of expression without causing too much commotion.
The date today is March 31, 2010 +800 time zone. Paalaam!

Re: God is a total freaking badass

First, you’re wrong about your assumption of creationism or people who believe that there is a supernatural being who have created this whole world we are enjoying. What is wrong with that? You insist that creationist believe that this world is only six thousand years old. You might be talking about other groups of people. But when you say creationist, generally it just means that we believe in God and he created this earth.

Many people or, most of the people in this world today have the same arguments, assumptions and ideas like you about God. You see, God is not, and would not conform to what most of you believe Him to be. He would not become what you see Him to be.

Let me give you an example, there are 2 men who were blind from birth. That means they have no idea what a tiger looks like. So, they went to Africa, and told there tour guide that they want to touch a tiger up close because they would not see it. After their tour guide led them to a tiger and fled, one of the blind men went to the rear and touched the tail. And he concluded that a tiger is small and is like a rope. Another one went and touched the body of the tiger and concluded that the tiger is like a pillow. And the tiger ate them and concluded that humans are worst than chicken, a chicken would run from a tiger while this two men came up to me. I didn’t order food!

From time in memorial, people have always argued and debated about God. During Moses times, when the Israelites were freed using the plagues. The Egyptians have seen and felt the power of God, the true God, and yet, they still denied his existence and the truth.

That is why this day i won’t argue or debate about Him. Because if they didn’t believe, while feeling and seeing firsthand the power and wrath of God, how would you? But by faith alone.

I am not to convince anyone, but to offer what was revealed and shared to me.

Don't Be a ZOMBIE

Hey Dan (Pogobat),

I appreciate you, being able to come up with interesting views and topics about mostly anything. But because you are able to give some THEORIES about something you believe doesn't necessarily mean that you are right and people who are contradicting you are ZOMBIES. YOU believe in the BIGBANG & EVO theory, other people believe in the Creation and Miracles. You have no right to call them idiotic or even zombies. Every one of us were taught about many things when we were young, and you were thought to believe in the theories and explanation of science alone, and for others, they were thought about God and His power. What makes you greater?

For my point, you have said in your previous video that you believe on evolution and people who believe on creation are idiots. You try to have a logical debate by mixing scientific elucidation on God’swondrous creation by citing and shovinginto our system that if you believe on the Bibles’ Creation then you believe that the entire Universe is just 6000 years old?!That my friend is idiotic.

You try to mix and deduced the Written Record of God’s work with science. It’s like trying to make a cake, substituting flour with chalk powder… that wouldn’t taste good.

You see, you don’t test the accuracy of the bible by using your theory and scientific methods. The only thing for people to understand what the Bible says is what we call FAITH.

If you don’t have that ingredient, then don’t use the BIBLE. It would just be meaningless for you.

You can’t put MIRACLE inside a test tube and run some chemical analysis with it.

The kind of people that I hate, are those who are extremist. Too extreme that they would call people names, and even hurting them or even killing them because of simply not believing what they believe. This king people try everything to prove or disprove the bible. They try to re-enact the miracles to disprove of its legitimacy.

I am not an extremist. I won’t convince you in any way too believe the Bible or even God. Faith is not made by convincing someone about certain belief. But Faith, in itself, is another form of Miracle that only God can perform.
