Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What’s something that happened on a first date that made you decide against a second date?

[–] heliosef 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

She was really nice and we had an amazing time. I realized after that she didn't deserve to be dating someone who, at the time, wasn't ready to date again yet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's too nice of you.

Kapag may art na hindi ko type or naintindihan iniisip ko na lang, 'Ok, I'm just not ready for this yet,' because it's not the right time or moment or maturity or intellectual level.

I go back to it a year or five years or longer and maybe, I know how to appreciate it by then. It always blows away my mind when this happens. What seemed like a simple thing suddenly has so many layers. So this was what the others saw or heard or understood that I couldn't. Amazing. I'm glad I get it now.

Does the same thought apply to people and relationships? Hmm, it seems to be much more difficult to go back to what was once there if you know, you really fuck it up. Plus you can't just go, Oh I don't understand you so balikan kita in one year lol. If you appreciate it too late, chances are you're already looking back with a tinge of regret or nostalgia.

I'll just go, I had a marvelous time ruining everything.

Yung art, walang pake kung di nagets ng isang tao. Di yun mag-aadjust.

People can adjust. People can apologize. People learn and change. People has a capacity to fix the problems they even created. You know, love cliches, but it won't make love anything less.

Ang bobo pa din pala ng Pinas, putangina.

I would say mention the instances of the Philippines being a dumbass country but this thread will be filled up to the brim so I'd rather not.

Damn. Bray Wyatt just died at 36 due to COVID-exacerbated heart issues.

[–] asunaspersonalasst 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Kaya from time to time yung mga dumadaan na Long Covid awareness advocates sa ~~Twitter~~ eks app nirerespeto ko.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It is a thing. I can't say for certain but some of the shit I'm experiencing right now must be related to the COVID I had last year. I wasn't greatly affected but man I feel weaker in general, but it might not be the only factor.

Bossing: Teka, hindi mo pa nababanggit ang pangalan ng babae sa Balete Drive ah!

Mayor Jose: Sa pagkahaba-haba ng kuwento ko, hindi ko pala nabanggit?

Ang pangalan ng babae ay....

...Kapag ako ay nanalo, sasabihin ko sa inyo!

Tawang-tawa ako sa joke ni Wally Bayola kanina kahit walang pumansin sa joke niya.

Mayor Jose: Ano trabaho ng asawa mo?

Winner: Welder po.

Wally: Ah, welder. Well, there...

[–] yeontura 1 points 1 year ago

Pati ako di ko napansin

Gate 3 at Brgy. Bolakan will be closed on Friday, August. 25 , at exactly 5:30 pm to decongest car volume to and from the venue.

Exempted lang daw VIP, which is such classist horse shit again.

We're giving Dominican Republic a good fight. Win or lose, hard to knock the performance.

[–] decadentrebel 2 points 1 year ago

Welp, made some mental mistakes late in the fourth. I don't think it gets any easier moving forward.

[–] monknonoke 2 points 1 year ago

thoughts while undergoing painful cramps:

You know what I need? Something sweet. I need some fucking sugar. To be specific: double dutch ice cream, cookie dough, and lemon bars. Dati ko pa talaga gusto ng cookie dough. Why have I denied myself cookie dough in the past? Do I hate myself or something?

😭 ah, I really want some cookie dough.

the other day some plumber/maintenance guys went in here to fix my sink

it was weird how they used some plastic tubing to connect the p-trap to the wall

apparently they snipped it off of my washing machine hose thing without my permission

not that it renders my washing machine useless but i just don't understand what the fuck is going through their heads malala pa sa asal katutubo??? parang pumulot lang ng sanga sa sahig amputa

makes me wonder if it's worth starting a career in plumbing kung ganito mga kalaban ko HAHAHA kinanginang utak yan

[–] decadentrebel 3 points 1 year ago

Natawa ako sa mental image na parang jungle survival ginawa nila sa hose ng washing machine, haha.
