Tale of Two Aces

                                                                (Thanks to the image from The Manila Times - ICC Probe)

Aces are the highest-ranking card, even higher than kings. A standard deck of cards has four aces, each with a different suit (heart, diamond, spade, or club). 

In local politics, the heat is on. The current and the ex-president had been playing "PUSOY" and had aces tucked in their sleeves... and both were holding them like they were their lucky charm.

Ang alas ni Rodrigo Duterte ay INC - Iglesia Ni Cristo.

Ang alas naman ni Bongbong Marcos ay ICC - International Criminal Court.

Kung anong alas ang manalo ... ay inaabangan ng lahat. 

Ang Mga Hula Ng Mga Fans Ng Batang Quiapo

Nalaman na ni Tanggol na siya ay ampon. Last Friday pinakita sa teaser na akmang babarilin bi Tanggol si Rigor.

Kaya kayang patayin ni Coco Martin si John Estrada? Ito ang mga hula ng mga fans.

a, Galit na galit si Tanggol. Ang eksenang papatayin ni Tanggol si Rigor ay isang "mirage" or guniguni lang.

b. Binaril nga niya pero dinala sa hospital at buhay pa.

c. Ang eksena ay isang panaginip/bangungot lang.

d. Illusion lang ito ... basta na lang nawala nang ginising siya.

e. Binaril nga si Rigor at ito ay namatay.

f. Binaril si Rigor ... pero dahil masama siyang damo may 9 siyang buhay.

g. Binaril si Rigor ... pero hindi pinatamaan ... sa lupa lang

h. Hintayin na lang natin ang sagot sa Lunes,

*HINDI TOTOO ITO* HINDI KA BIBIGYAN NG DIYOS NG PROBLEMANG DI MO KAYA LA...

This Is The Life I Want

Don't let others DEFINE you ... and don't let their words CONFINE you. 

You DEFINE your own life. Don't let them DICTATE and WRITE the script for you.

You are in charge of your life ... and you are at the helm. Do whatever you want to do with confidence and trust ... because there is no limit to what you can accomplish.

Don't let anyone make you believe otherwise. And lastly ... don't set yourself on FIRE ... to keep others WARM.

Double Entendre

"Kung ang PAPEL ay DINIDILAAN ko ... ikaw pa kaya?"

"May malaking PAPEL ka sa buhay ko ... basta ... malaking BAHAGI ka (if I don't acknowledge it ... it would be an injustice)".

This is a Double Entendre, meaning the statements have double meanings. It is a word or phrase open to two interpretations ... one is usually risque or indecent.

Is double entendre good or bad?

A "double entendre" is generally considered a good literary device when used appropriately, as it adds depth and complexity to writing by allowing for multiple interpretations of a word or phrase, often with a playful or humorous effect; however, if used poorly, it can be seen as confusing or even offensive depending on the context and the intended meaning. 

Irony of Life

Sa bus kahapon may isang taong buong giting ang nagsabi: "PANGIT daw yong habambuhay kang PALAMONIN."

Wala akong intention na makinig sa kanilang pinag-usapan pero hindi ko mapigilan na tingnan ang source ng statement because of his audacity to say what is on his mind ... in public.

In fairness ... PANGIT siya!
