On Deniece and Boy Bulalo - A Comedy of Errors

Everywhere I see, there a news reports, pictures, videos and memes of Vhong Navarro and Boy Bulalo. For 2 weeks now my news feed is nothing but them. It’s become a circus… and it has irritated me to the point that I wanted to sit down and write what I think of it all.

This is my point of view alone. The readers of my blog might not think and feel the same way that I do. But hey, this country is democratic. And we are entitled to our own opinions.

There is just one question uppermost in my mind – Has this country stooped down so low that we have become stupid, blithering idiots? The news reports contains people that are getting stupider by the minute. Why do I say so? Let me explain that.

One – Boy Bulalo and his quest for Bulalo Soup in a BAKERY. First, why would someone, ANYONE, ask for Bulalo Soup in a bakery? Even drunk people know that only bread is available in a Bakery. I take that back.. of course you can also get butter and maybe coffee there. But still, BULALO SOUP? His stupidness is unimaginable.

Secondly, the sales lady gave him Cup Noodles in Bulalo Flavor. Yeah, granted that Bulalo Boy might have been an asshole, but hey, does she even know that a Bulalo Soup has meat and bones in there? Maybe she gave that noodles because she got pissed off.. Or maybe she is also stupid herself. That, we don’t know.

Two – Deniece Cornejo and her 2-minute rape. First, if she is a rape victim, she will try her damnedest to not be recognized by the whole world and not show her face in front of the camera all dollied up and pretty as you please. She was raped, so there should be a few scratches here and there. Secondly, NO ONE, can stroke her hair, struggle with her, pull down her shorts, pull his own shorts, and rapes her IN THE SPAN OF 2 MINUTES. What are they, rabbits? I know that by law it is automatically considered as rape as soon as there is penetration involved, even if there was no orgasm. But hey, do they have a remote control like Adam Sandler in the movie Click?

Third, so many people are putting their fingers on all these. Memes are made, Videos are altered with voice-overs, bashers scream and complain, fan pages are created and all other things that are now available to us in this world of social networking. It clogs our news feeds and inboxes. It is funny, yes, but it is also irritating our friend list like hell.

So let me just end my own complaint and make my own voice heard this one and only time. We all know Boy Bulalo is a nincompoop for asking Bulalo in a Bakery. We all know that Deniece is lying (even though there is a thing called innocent until proven guilty, there is also this thing called COMMON SENSE). And we all know that Vhong’s dick is itchy but he got his face scratched instead. But because we don’t want to stop commenting and blabbering and generally caring about it, we become the most stupid of them all. (Me included for writing this blog)!

There are so many issues out there that need our attention. Things like BIR trying to milk us for all we are worth like Rose Fostanes’ prize money in the Israel X-Factor, and the fact that we do not see where all the money is getting spent on. There are all the victims of Yolanda and the fact that a lot of the relief fund given to them by foreign nations are now being spent unsupervised because our government is now focused on whether or not Deniece is lying. There’s the taxi-spraying incidents that we, who work in the night shift is scared about and the fact that no one had been caught or apprehended yet mostly because of lack of evidence.

And the weather is scary too. There’s typhoon Basyang and the fact that we should be preparing for another calamity that we can never be fully prepared for. And there’s also cold temperature every day that we are enjoying, yes, but the fact that this is unusual and someone is supposed to be asking why and getting some answers because this is not a good thing in the long run. This kind of unusual cold weather is probably a sign of global warming and we might be expecting a long and hot dry season like we never experienced before.

These things are what we should be concerned about. Not Boy Bulalo, or Deniece, or Vhong, or Cedrick. Time is too important to spend worrying and talking about stupid things. Let’s stop now. Please! Again, this is my own opinion. If I irritated or degraded anyone, I’m sorry. But also, ask yourself why you would feel that way. What do you really value most?
