Juan de .... anak mayaman ... tinitingala sa lipunan ... at sinasamba ng mga kababaihan ... Magna Na Kaw ... leader ng gang ... hindi nakakatapos ng pagaaral. "Akala ko noon walang katapusan ang biyaya ... nabulag ako sa konting kapangyarihan at popularidad natamo ko. Pati pala yon may expiration date?"
Sa mga nakakita at nakarinig ng awayang Pedro at Juan ... there are also two sides to a coin. Ang mga judgemental na mga mata at mapaghusgang mga tenga na hindi inalam ang tunay na kwento ng away pero sawsaw ng sawsaw ... at ang isang laksang tsismoso at tsismosa na imbis na makatulong dinagdagan pa ng mga twist and turns ang kwento for an added impact.
Ang inggit naman is a condition na kung ano meron ang iba ... dapat mas marami ... at mas ungos pa sila, If they don't get what they want ... sisiraan ka.
When you are jealous or envious of somebody... a fire inside you needs extinguishing. And one devious way of dousing the fire that is burning and suffocating your being is to start gossiping or spreading lies about the person. The goal is to reduce the speed sa parang bulalakaw na pagtingin at respeto ng mga tao sa taong kinaiinggitan.
Did you see the connection? If there is envy ... gossip is on the periphery. You resort to tsismis to bring somebody down ... and when you succeed... you feel better about yourself.
The hallmark signs of people predisposed to envy and gossip are: Poverty/financial insecurity, lack of confidence, rebuking yourself harshly, jealousy of somebody else achievements, extended idle times, having no hobbies or diversion, displeasure with the status quo and always singing that old refrain: "Me and me ... against the world."
Whether you are Kapuso or Kapamilya or Kapatid or whatever denomination ... we can all agree that Family Feud Philippines is one of the most entertaining game shows ever. The Philippine derivative had just started its second season ... even in America if news is to be believed it is destined to continue through 2026 ... a Golden Jubilee celebration being a 5oth year since it started in July 1967.
What other reasons has Family Feud Philippines become so popular? Was it because of the host Dingdong Dantes? Was it because of his charisma, his boyish look despite his age ... his demeanor ... his attitude ... his genuine interaction with his fans ... his humor, or his intelligent adlibs that made the show free-wheeling ... animated ... zesty ... and effervescent.
As a true-blue ... laser-focused follower of Family Feud ... it looked like it.
How is Family Feud played? The Philippine version pits two groups (in America two families) mostly from the GMA stable ... but lately, they can be inclusive as beautiful and handsome men and women from pageantry are pouring in ... PPOP and Pinoy bands are having the times of their lives and athletes have their own shares of the limelight.
They have experimented with using two Pinoy families ... but the idea was nipped in the bud. Was it because picky fans had their last say ... they prefer movie stars or TV personalities -instead of totally unknowns? I hope Family Feud can open its doors to more Kapamilya and Kapatid talents to have more diversity ... not unless there is a problem borrowing or lending talents because of network wars. Remember when It's Showtime hosts guested ... and their guesting erased whatever top rating record they have kept on their shelves.
Family Feud has two warring groups or families competing who beat who ... in answering the most popular responses to survey questions. Because the responses are pulled from actual surveys, the points assigned to each question correspond with how many people responded accordingly. Points are awarded for every correct answer, and the family with the highest number of points wins the game.
What makes this game special ... is for you to be alert and on guard. You are not supposed to be giving your own opinion here when you compete ... you have to think about what the average respondents have answered. Their answer is what matters ... not what you think is the most popular.
As one friend says, Family Feud is a good equalizer. It compels one to recoil and go down his ivory tower ... and pause to judge what other ordinary mortals think about the question in the survey. One has to drop down the attitude that his answers are the best. In order for you to win ... you have to be on the same page as the ordinary Juans. You have to pack up that bloated ego and go down to their level.
The way the questions were formulated has the formula to elicit answers that will make the host or the players blush deep crimson ... or make them freeze ... some were adamant and hesitant ... lest their answers were laced with sexual undertones and coloring. And they are wary ... because of being on national TV ... you have to be responsible.
Playing Family Feud has its positives too. Whether you are in a game or at work ... it improves cooperative teamwork ... responsiveness and people skills. More so it encourages the group to communicate effectively and develop problem-solving skills. It creates a combined, collective, joint, and shared effort ... as well as collaborative work for the members. It offers a fun environment and a much-needed break from monotonous routines. The game promotes brotherhood and comradeship and increases the member's emotional connectivity and positive engagement to help achieve the group's goal which is to win the game!
A dime is an American coin worth 1/10 of a dollar (10 cents). So they are cheap and worthless. Consider these examples:
THEN: Promisa ko sa inyo ... my government will be free from all corruption.
NOW: Promisa ko sa inyo ... my government is free for all ang corruption.
Where do these people get the audacity to JUDGE you ... when all the time the things he CRITICIZES you about ay gawain din pala nila. At mas malala pa ... pero kung umatake ...walang preno! At napakabanal!
NAKITA mo ang mali ng iba pero .... BULAG ka sa mga masamang ginagawa mo. Creep!
