Pinoy Thread v.6

[yoniekai]

ha? hindi ah classmate k yung isa. pp doesnt speak hiligaynon. speaking of pinoypride i havent seen him in a long time. shannaro is dead, wonder what's he doing now

 

[Paper]

comments??? saan?? >.>

 

[baboysai]

aa official na ba that shannaro is dead? As in they released a statement holding up their hands and saying "we give up. Japflap's just way too fast" or something? (hehe that's just my mental image of shannaro. They must have been pressured a lot.)

I do understand b*lat and some other words there. I can gather the context clues somehow.

@hunter, well, if that's in 2010, you might want to watch the movie fastfood nation (all star cast pala to). Yan that's not in 2010, that's a highly possible problem right this moment. Speaking of the film, it's one of the coolest I've watched. You can google it up.

 

[hunter71485]

currently looking up fastfood nation.

yeah, i get the gist of the message, but i want the exact translation...

 

[yoniekai]

hahaha. i cant say it... but wow bb knows the b word. that's the... crucial word

yeah, shannaro is done, they've expressed their retirement from the Edited Manga community months ago, i forgot the last release... lack of cleaners and busy lives, and pointless to go on in that position when you've got japflap anyway. they just dont agree on the cleaning methods thats all, but they're okay the both of them

@fastfood nation (film)
"The movie uses a fictionalized approach instead of being a documentary, telling the story from the point of view of people involved in the industry. The ensemble cast includes Greg Kinnear, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Ethan Hawke, Luis Guzmán, Patricia Arquette, Kris Kristofferson, Lou Taylor Pucci, Ana Claudia Talancon, Esai Morales, Paul Dano, Wilmer Valderrama, Bruce Willis, and Avril Lavigne."

...when i read "all star cast" i knew this is one movie i wouldn't want to see...

maybe the novel is better...

@yonie
yonie... hangout thread tayo... di pede sabihin dito... sa tagalog thread siguro pwede... just stick to tagalog....

 

[yoniekai]

why is bruce willis always in the cast of an ensemble cast? pulp fiction, sin city, ocean's twelve, planet terror... i swear.

 

[hunter71485]

i think they always use willis to garner attention...

maybe they should take tom cruise next.... so they'll have free advertisements...

 

[yoniekai]

i dont like tom cruise. i see him as a very limited actor, like he only portrays one face in all his movies... i like the versatile actors, like depp or dicaprio or matt damon

oh man when i look at record speeds for XDCC i always think how rock-bottom philippine standards are.... i mean look, the record speed is 10000 KB/s, and me, i get 45. forty-freaking-five. that's like 20000% away... people with speeds like that dload DVD movies like they were the latest naruto chapter. i have to wait hours to get my filling. its just my obvious jealousy kicking in

Well I don't know about the novel but I liked this movie. Great cinematography, evenly paced, great story to boot. Er... I like it, haha. Not one of the usual good films. Unconventional and fresh kasi yung effect.

i think they always use willis to garner attention...

I've seen Tom Cruise in an all-star ensemble though. Magnolia ata yun.

@yonie, of course i understand b*lat. We have that word too.

 

[hunter71485]

wow. after reading the day's news i was kinda surprised.

PNP stated that it *might* be an assassination attempt by abu sayyaf to kill akbar that succeeded. problem is, why not shoot him face to face? that's probably easier to do, since akbar died while being treated at a hospital.

@tom cruise
i was being sarcastic you know....

i really hate him as an actor. my hatred grew even more as he preached the *benefits* of scientology.

That makes a lot of sense actually. If Akbar was a comrade-turned-traitor for the group, no wonder he'd be the target. But the way things are going in everyday politics, I'm feeling dubious about that fact.

I'm just too cynical when it comes to the government.

Hey! It's MH's Birthday today!

 

[baboysai]

Two years na ang MH. hehe wala lang. Ang cute.

I'll be going to the komikon today (before 3 pm) to catch Pol Medina Jr.'s book signing and QnA. IDOL KO KASI SI POL MEDINA JR! yun lang. hehe. And of course I'll be snooping around what goes in the Filipino Komiks scene.

 

[hunter71485]

ganun ba?

ge, sabihin mo 5% of mangahelpers supports him...

...kung abot sa 5% ang pinoy population ng MH.....

 

[yoniekai]

speaking of pol, his works have been different since year 2000+. its not the usual "simpleng pinoy" jokes, its now more like the modern pinoy jokes... you get what i mean right

 

[hunter71485]

yeah, double meaning and all that.

 

[maaru]

Hey guys, haven't stopped by for a while. Medyo stressed at busy, tapos weekends lang ako may connection.

@yonie. Ano ba ang habol mo na download speed? I'm quite happy with my max 106 kb/s DSL. Sa IRC nga, usually ganon kabilis.

@Bbsai, cool yung website, and natuwa ako na naka-note din yung event namin
And it's only a week left, so I'll pimp it again (with a new banner!!)

i get around 40-45. but thats plausible for a 384kbps connection. and then globe has this new promo for 1mbps for around P200 more than our plan i gotta apply for that. but even so, 100KB/s is a joke compared to the speeds you see on the net... really. i wish i could dload movies in an hour or so

 

[hunter71485]

yeah.

at 384 kbps max the speed goes between 48 - 227 kbps.

kung meron nga lang globe dito eh... meron pldt, kaya lang ayaw nila magkabit dito sa subdivision namin, dun lang sila sa kabila, which is less than 50 meters away...

i d/l a movie. took me 5 hours. tried it on bit torrent, took me 3 days. darn.

i was gonna post a new sig, but it's kinda racy... so i changed my mind.

 

[yoniekai]

but 384kbps from wifi is faster than DSL, wifi speeds are erratic, which is actually a good thing, well depends on the weather too, but compared to constant speeds from DSL.
