The Wheel and Axle

Last week, news came out that Philadelphia was lobbying to add brown and black stripes to the iconic Rainbow Flag of the LGBT community. The reason is that they want to represent the inclusivity of (American) racial minorities that have a history of being discriminated against even within the LGBT community.

Needless to say, this sparked heated debates over the internet. I also had my own thoughts which I shared on social media, and with Metro Manila Pride March scheduled tomorrow, I thought it was appropriate to also share my thoughts here on my blog.

To sum it up: I believe it is completely unnecessary and, if I may say so, foolish. Adding black and brown to the flag won’t solve any problems of racial misrepresentation or underrepresentation. It also ignores the fact that the flag already is supposed to represent inclusivity and that the stripes represent specific concepts, none of which are race-related.

This is several years old, but I recently saw it again, and it still is hilarious AF.

Happy Thursday! Enjoy the rest of the week.

Recently, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry made headlines again because of their ongoing feud. It also highlighted just how petty and juvenile Taylor is, not to mention absolutely fake vis-a-vis her purported stance on streaming sites. Of course, this guy pretty much summed it all up for the rest of us commoners who are sane.

Who would’ve thought that Boysen, of all brands, could come up with such a hilarious commercial? 😂 I’m still laughing AF.

Believe me: I so would watch this. Pump up the jam, baby. Pump it up.

Leave it to the Europeans to creatively put the Orange Monster in his place.

This had me in stitches, and by George! I have no idea why I just couldn’t stop laughing.

And these taxi companies have the gall to say Uber and Grab are taking away business from them. Reality check: TNVs provide the service that taxis have been unable to.

If the idiot taxi operators want their business to go up again, then they better start ridding themselves of these thugs and hooligans.

This is old but still hilarious AF. What’s even more hilarious is how some people thought it was real. Parody generally isn’t for the brain-deficient, though to be fair, we’ve seen beauty pageant contestants talk about opposite sex marriage and “Iraq, everywhere like, such as,” so can we blame those who actually believed there were anti-Math advocates?

Especially when you consider the very real video being parodied and how moronic some of those real life contestants were.

Lord save us from the idiots.

… and it wasn’t because of the freezing ocean.
