Intellectual Elitism eh? | Off the Top of My Head

Intellectual Elitism eh?

Post created on September 1, 2009 by Reesie under Chika Galore 

I am a down-to-earth person and everybody who knows me personally can attest to that. Kung ayaw niyo maniwala, bahala kayo! Hahaha.

Farley, a close friend of mine, once told me that I can easily get along with people of all backgrounds and that it is one of my best qualities. I really am. I can blend. I don’t want to sound self-absorbed but it is really true. I don’t want to make other people feel uncomfortable with my presence that is why I would be willing to adjust to their temperament, attitude, etc. If you are chikadora, chikadora din ako. If you are tahimik, chikadora pa rin ako. Hahaha. Actually I used to be described as too timid, I would hardly say a word especially to those people who are intimidating. This is the reason why I try hard not to intimidate people  because I really know the feeling of being left out and inferior. Self pity would succumb you.

I would dress simply if the people I would meet are simple. I would dress elegantly if the people I would share the table with are dressed with sophistication.  In short, I don’t want to be different amongst crowd. I don’t want to stand out. I just want to be ordinary. “I am just a girl standing in front of a boy asking him to love her.” Konek? Ewan ko din. Hahaha.

So where is this post going? Bakit may ganitong drama akech?

Well, I just notice some bloggers to be really stereotypical and elitist. Well, you may call some as trying hard intellectuals. Superiority complex, eh? If you’re IQ is below sea level(borrowed from Maldito) , you should not talk to them or else they are going to ridicule you or really make you feel that you are (for the lack of better word) …that you don’t have the right to converse with them. Thou shall not visit their blogs for their blogs are only for those people who have the same level of brains as theirs.

But come to think of it, how can you measure the level of intelligence of a blogger?  Is it the high-fallutin english used in the blog? Is it the topic of the blog?  These elitist bloggers should put an IQ assessment software for all their readers before you can read their blogs in that way they can be sure that the readers are of high IQ. But hey, how can we be sure that these elitist bloggers who claim to have superior IQ’s really have IQ’s like that of Einstein?

If you talked about your day, your pet, your nails, your hair or anything  about yourself, they would say ” hey, there’s a better topic out there to discuss other than yourself.” And I would say to this people: “Hey, this is my blog. I can post whatever I want. Sana nagjournalist ako which I would be forced to discuss politics, world affairs, etc.” Hey, I am not against those who blog about world/local affairs ha coz I read those kind of blogs. By the way, visit Barrio Siete. At nag plug pa talaga.

If you just want to blog about your personal life, fashion, food..those stress-free topics.. does that make you less intelligent?

Some bloggers out there would make fun of gay-lingo blogs. C’mon now, people. Are you serious? The use of high-fallutin English or high-fallutin Tagalog words is a sign of intelligence, yun ang sinasabi nila.  Are you kidding me? C’mon now, I know of somebody na malili ang grammar pero juice ko day ang taas ng IQ. Pano ko nalaman? Dahil sa IQ test result niya. Lolz. And take note mga friends, he is a top notcher of some really difficult board exam. Hindi lang tough ten, kundi nasa tough five. At ang dami niyang certifications ever! Madaming nakakabit sa pangalan niya! May kakilala din ako na lawyer at PhD holder  na better heard than read if you know what I mean. Kaya, you can never ever tell that a certain blogger has a below sea level IQ!!!

While it is true that a conversation is stimulating if like-minded persons are the participants but one must remember that to be better human beings you have to join/participate the complexity of life…the humankind.  Everybody can learn something from anybody.  We should not too be picky, buti nga may nagbabasa sa blog mo eh…itsura nito. Ang arte mo ha. Magpakumbaba tayo for world peace. Di vah?  Who am I to tell you? Wala lang, suggestment ko lang naman to. I hope that nobody would make somebody feel inferior. We don’t wanna be sound like Malou Fernandez or that Fajardo, right?

Why classify? We are created equal. Why label people?

I hope I was able to convey my point here. Kung may idadagdag kayo, paki-iwan sa comment section. :D

PS. When I say readers, I mean legit readers hindi yung mga nagiiwan ng template comments such as “hi, nice blog. xlinks?”

    this is a great post Reesie!

    i agree with what u said. committing grammatical errors is not enough to measure a certain bloggers’ intelligence quotient. i also dislike those kinds of bloggers who think too high of themselves just because they can speak high-fallutin english on their blogs. madami talagang mayabang na bloggers, meron nga jan nabasa ko sa FB questioning one blogger’s motive of making friends with him. Thinking that a certain blogger was just trying to befriend him to attract more readers and get higher stats/traffic. i mean what the H! ganun na ba talaga sya kasikat. haha. i’d rather social climb with barrio siete.

    • Reesie says:

      Well Monding, there are really some other bloggers that use you to gain traffics in their sites or befriend you kasi may hidden agenda. Baka naman talga totoo ang sinasabi ng blogger na iyun. You never know. At sure naman ako na hindi patungkol sayo yun kasi I know you are not that kind. :D

      • darbs says:

        Manay Reesie parang ako ata ito ah!

        befriend you kasi may hidden agenda.

        May kulang ung sinabi mo. Sana at the end, may “BWAHAHAHAHAH!” morag katawang taning ba manay.

        Pero ang positive side at least transparent at nagsabi ng totoo na may hidden ang agenda.

        Kaya lang ang problema ay hindi sinabi kung ano ang hidden agenda na yan.

        Sana may magtanong para mahanap kaagad kung ano ang hidden na agenda.

      CHARMAINE?! nakawala ba dito si charmaine?! hahaha! o baka si Carlo Ople to? di kaya? ba’t kaya puro “C” sila? hahaha

    • Snow says:

      yung mga pseudo-intellectuals na yan makikitid ang isip. don’t worry reesie may araw din sila…hehehe…

  2. Maldito says:

    Maldito stepped here first.

  3. Mahalia says:

    in the long run, sila rin naman ang mawawalan ng readers, sa sobrang paggamit ng thesaurus!

  4. Maldito says:

    Monding you’re referring to me right on this?Thinking that a certain blogger was just trying to befriend him to attract more readers and get higher stats/traffic.
    First and foremost, whats your problem? Hindi kita pinakekealaman sa buhay mo, and if thats what I feel for that friend of mine, you are out of the context. HIndi ko sinabi sikat ako, narinig mo ba ako na pinagsigawan ko na SIKAT ako? Putangena, kung hindi ka pinakekealaman wag mong pakialaman ang isang tao. YOU DONT KNOW THE STORY. THE WHOLE STORY so stop pretending that you know the whole point on our issue. This is MY issue, not yours. So mind your own buiseness.

    Hindi ikaw ang ginamit, kaya wag kag magkokomento ng kung ano diyan na hindi mo naman totally alam.

    Im a memeber of Barrio Siete munding, and if in case you dont know that yet, its time for your to FACE the FACT that yes, I do have lots of friends here compared to you. I dont have pretend to be somebody else at makipag plastikan sa mga bloggers just to gain friends.

    Stats? You wanna see how many hits i have per day? I always been the silent type sa issue natin sa floor with the other guys, I dont give a damn to you. Really, i dont care about what you did and what you think about everything, but puhlease, CANT YOU SEE/feel IT? WERE NOT THE ONE WHO HAS A PROBLEM. Think!

    Kung may comment ka na ganyan, please lang taguin mo nalang. Halatang pinaglihi ka sa ampalaya eh. I dont wanna start a fight monding, but in case you are asking for it, tell me. Im just a cubicle away.

    • Reesie says:

      gusto ninyo boxing gloves manoy? taga-an ta mo duha ni monding. haha. pag storya kuno mong duha beh.

    • reyna elena says:

      eeeek! anong nangyari? di ba nalipat na ba dito ang palasyo ko? hahaha! ~yosi muna ako while watching~

    • Mon says:

      First and foremost Glenn, i didn’t drop any names. Madaming mayabang na bloggers so don’t be such a sore bitch! Sorry naman at tinamaan ka. Judging from that status message, it’s inevitable for someone to think na mayabang ang nagsulat nun. And i just said my opinion, nayayabangan ako. but at least i didn’t drop ur name.

      OO di mo nga pinagsisigawan explicitly na sikat ka, but c’mon, it doesn’t take a genius to read between the lines haha… uu kanta yun!

      and another evidence of your YABANG is the third and 4th paragraph of ur comment. and for the record, hindi ako nakikikompara sayo. hindi ako nakikipagpaligsahan kung sino ang may mas maraming friends. LOL.. that’s so immature!

      at wag mo ko mahamon-hamon ng away Glenn, dahil kahit kunti ni katiting, wala akong nararamdamang takot sa’yo! baka magsisi ka lang.

      this is really sad that we have gotten to this point. i did at one time, considered you as a friend especially when we were seatmates. but for just one “joke” everything turned upside-down. perhaps we’re really not meant to be friends. ayos lang! nakakapagod din magaroon ng mapanlait na “kaibigan.”

      PS: nakakastress tung ganitong exchange of words eh. why don’t we talk in person?

      • Maldito says:

        lame excuse. really? not me? it also doesnt take to be a genius to know who you’re referring to. Tell me that person who POSTED that same shout out in FB and I will believe you thats not me.

        I am open to talk about this PERSONALLY, set the date and time and prepare you’re reasoning. Hindi ako nakialam sayo ever kung anong meron ka at problema mo with the others even if you will ask them I’m always the mediocre in the group, but it is not really right to butt in in somebody’s buisness without even knowing the issue.

        • Mon says:

          let me clear this out, i’m not butting in on whatever issue you have with some blogger. i also don’t give a damn inkling on what’s up or down with you. ang mali ko lang ngayon is that i used ur status message as an example dun sa comment ko sa itaas about yabang bloggers perhaps because i had this feeling na ako yung tinutumbok mo dun sa status message na yun. and yes i was referring to you in that comment. but at least i didn’t copy and pasted your status message. i’m not making any excuses, ang point ko lang eh since di ko naman binanggit ang pangalan mo and i did not exactly quote your stat message u cud have pretended na hindi mo alam na ikaw yun for decency sake. Or you could have approached me personally instead of posting a very long and humiliating reply for decency sake. I really find this insulting and humiliating:”CANT YOU SEE/feel IT? WERE NOT THE ONE WHO HAS A PROBLEM. Think!”

          sure! let’s talk about that PROBLEM you’re talking about!

          nakakahiya lang kay Reesie at dito pa dinidiscuss to. this is my last reply.

      • Maldito says:

        sorry at tinamaan ako? E sa statement mo ako tinitira mo, patama ba yun? geh!Im always here, approach me anytime you want.

        • Reesie says:

          basta clear na hindi para sayo yun Monding. and if maldito was really bragging which I don’t think he was, what do you care? kung naangasan ka sa isang tao, leave him alone..masestress ka lang. wala ka namang obligasyon na turuan sila ng leksyon, may mga magulang yang mga iyan. don’t burden yourself. tama ba yun? lolz.

          you guys should talk . i guess this is not just the issue about that fb status post. tingin ko may malalim na ugat to. mag usap kayo mga tsong. you’ve been good friends.

          pagsure mo wui.

          • Mon says:

            I still doubt it na hindi nga ako yung tinutumbok nya sa stat message na yun Reesie. Because it is not the first time na nagpaprinig sya o nagpapasaring sya sakin whether on FB or on his blog. Peru sige to make a halt on this issue, let’s say I’m convinced na hindi nga ako yun. and again i’m sorry Reesie sa gulong tu dito sa blog mo. and i appreciate your advise. thanks.

          • Reesie says:

            Monding, I really don’t want to meddle pero since you are in my blog.. Ito sasabihin ko: Maldito told me who that person was even before he posted that status in his FB. So I am sure na hindi ikaw yun.

          • Maldito says:

            and what do you want to express here in putting my status here as an example? Before I posted that shout out, Reesie knows who the person behind it because i told her about that certain blogger. stop being paranoid. You are not the only person I know in this world. And calling me mayabang? Feeling sikat? You should have approached me before you comment about that in other people page, instead you judged me. You did not mentioned any names, yeah right. Same as I did in my status, so ano yung pinagpuputok ng butchi mo? Minsan magkadelakadesa ka naman. What do you expect after reading what you said? Magbingi-bingihan?

            And FYI, i never posted something about you after the incident you had with someone, I moved on. Halatang my grudges kapa. So never assume that my shout out is for you. This is also my last reply, approach me, email me or whatever you have in mind. Of all the people I expect to say unkind words to me, I never expected that you will turn out to be the one.

            Manay you know the whole truth, so I rest my case. Kaw kasi pinost mo pa to.lols.ha ha ha

          • Reesie says:

            Yeah, I take the blame. Hehe. I never thought that this post would create a flame. This post is general in nature.

            I hope you guys will settle this. Panget ang may kaaway.

        • Reesie says:

          @malditz: manoy, you guys should talk. sabi mo nga, you are just a cubicle away. yung boxing gloves mo, itago mo na yan. haha.

  5. Maldito says:

    You know my side manay, and same as you, there are people really who feel like they are a god. Self-righteous people who did nothing but to wash their own hands. There are bloggers who judged other bloggers, I’m aware of that since I also did that. But instead I just keep it to my own, ok at sinasabi ko rin pala sayo sometimes. Lols. Maangas ako pero I do it on a funny way. I hope people can learn how to value blogger friends, at yes,
    Alam ko kung sino ang nasa post mo. I hope HE will realize it someday.

    Is there a time I shouted to all people im that great? NO. That I’m famous? NO. end.

    • Reesie says:

      yez manoy, remember imong site thegreatmaldito.com? hahaha. jowk lang. kinsa man na siya? wala akong pinatatamaan dito.. i am speaking in general sense on what i have observed. some of b7 writers already tackled this issue before. di ba reynz at silver? at talagang naghahanap ng kakampi. haha.

      • reyna elena says:

        wala akong kinakampihan. boylet ko yang si maldito hehehe but yeah, haller! ilang beses na ba akong tinawag nang bad bad really bad bad talaga actually ang haba na nang name ko sa internet dahil i am jologz hehe

      • Mon says:

        i apologize about this Reesie. okay, my bad! i shouldn’t have posted that as an example. i’m sorry for bringing it up. to you Glenn, sorry din at namention ko yun. at sana wag mo ko murahin ng putang-ina ulit dahil umiinit ang dugo ko. i respect my mom so much and whoever calls her names, masasaktan! sa uulitin, di ko na palalampasin!

        • Reesie says:

          @monding: ito advise lang naman: if you have a problem with someone, it is best to confront him/her. lisod man gd nang ilu-om nimo kay kung mobuto, bongga gyd siya nga pagkabuto. hehehe.

        • Maldito says:

          I never said putangena mo…its just putangena..its an expression, and im not cursing your mother and calling her names.

  6. lio loco says:

    it’s a sad thing how my thoughts are misinterpreted. but yeah, if what i said qualify me as an intellectual elitist, then so be it.

    i am arrogant, alright. but i didn’t say i’m a gawd. i don’t link up a person because somebody just said so, but because i think he or she is rightfully so. they’re my personal choice. nobody dictated me to link them up.

    you’ve stated your points very well miss reesie and i admire you for that. but i would like to disagree on some points. again i am not for popularity, i am for opinion. not for form, but for substance. if this opinion pretty much irks you to no end, then i leave it up to you. just as there are 7 billion people inhabiting this macrocosm, so are there 7 billion varied perspectives.

    you said that you “easily get along with people of all backgrounds and it is one of my best qualities.” well and good. i’d like to say i wish i were that but i couldn’t. because i am not. and i have no plans to be one. this is me, and i will not let anyone tell me what should i be to anybody. it is difficult to explain everything in words. because words are never truly commensurate to what we really feel. again, let me reiterate that i blog to write what i think matters, not what i think matters to the online reader.

    please don’t take this in a bad light. hindi ko minasama ang post na ‘to sa kung ano ako sa’yo sa parehong dahilan na wag mo rin sanang masamain ang komentong ‘to sa palagay ko sa post mo. isa ka pa rin sa mga blogger na pinili kong ilagay sa blog ko nang hindi nagpapaalam o nakikipaglinkisan at ‘yun eh dahil ginusto ko.

    a pleasant morning (evening), miss reesie!

    • Reesie says:

      ewan ko sayo lio ha but i am not referring to you. kung natamaan ka, pasensya na.

      first of all i really like how you blog and i am not talking here about what you should write and how you should write. what i am talking is ..can we at least be accommodating to our readers irregardless of their IQ per se.. show them some appreciation wouldn’t hurt. kaya nga we are blogging because we are hoping that someone out there is reading our thoughts… puede ka ba naman mamili ng readers mo eh ang laki ng internet.

      • lio loco says:

        ok, i don’t know if i’ll sound like an intellectual elitist after saying this but whaddaheck, i’m saying this just the same.

        pinaka-ayokong type ng blogger eh ung pupunta lang sa blog mo hindi para magbasa para magpa-ex link. kaya nga may ganun akong warning sa blog ko. bawal ang mga kupal na nagpapa-exlink lang. what does that make them other than…*okei, i’m saying it…pasintabi na lang* stereotypical idiots?

        how can i respect them if in the first place, hindi ka naman nila nirespeto nung nagpunta sila sa blog mo di ba?

        ahm…okei…basa na ang kilikili ko sa sobrang inet! lololol!

        • lio loco says:

          whoops…typo.

          hindi para magbasa KUNDI para magpa-exlink

        • Reesie says:

          naiirita din ako sa mga ganon noh.. tingnan mo yang nasa cbox ko. madami diyan aside of course sa mga kilala ko. hindi sila kasali dito sa usapan na to. ang sinasabi ko yung legit readers ng isang blogger. yung nagbabasa talga ng todo todo tapos pagnagkokomment kukutyain lang pala lalo kung nagdidis agree sa author. i should make that clear in my post huh? wag kasi mag react kaagad. lolz.

  7. Maldito says:

    I just dont want this….really..ayoko.magkaibigan tayung lahat..iisang lahi.iisang hangarin..sama sama tayu sa pagsulong sa taong 2010!

  8. kikayness says:

    ehem! kay init ng mga komento

    ….kaya kakanta na lang ako ng nobody-nobody-batchu

    ….seryoso na, this is a great post Reesie ad I admire you for doing this. Not many people would have the courage to blog about what they observe (me included)…sang-ayon ako dito sa post mo kasi..uhm…ahehehe…ganyan din ako

    ….kokontrahin ko lang si Lio (peace L), we have the right to blog about what we feel but we also have to think about what other people feel.

    ….marami pa akong gustong sabihin kaso kulang ang ispeys….basta ang masasabi ko lang, what we see in other people is just a part of themselves…

    AT

    …lahat ng tao may angking katalinuhan…Language is no longer a good measure of who is intelligent and who is not

    • Reesie says:

      Tama ka Rhona, we should also be sensitive to how others feel…kaya if we want to live harmoniously, we must know how to coexist. Hindi naman puede na walang paki-alaman kasi nasa isang planet lang tayo. Teka lang bat ako napunta don. haha.

      Remember that Tracy Borres brouhaha? She was soo insensitive kaya tuloy madaming nagalit sa kanya.

  9. kikayness says:

    engk! wrong gramming

    ….also have to think about what other people MIGHT feel.

    • Reesie says:

      teka lang rhonz, world peace na pala kayo ni Lio? oh yez! yay! this calls for a celebration! saan na yung shoktong. haha. at nang intriga pa talga.

      • lio loco says:

        oo naman. para lang kaming kontestan sa miss gay valenzuela! world peace! di ba bossing? corny much? lololol!

        • anakngpating says:

          ang saya ok na sila ehhe..

          pero sakin naman galit si lio dahil sa kabulastugan namen ni ax ehhe..

          di pa tuloy nya nisasabi sakin ung blog nya heheh..

          kailangan talagang icelebrate kaso di umiinom si ate kikay ehhe..malamang si lio lang pag pulang kabayo ang hinarap mo sknya ehhe

  10. lio loco says:

    at the risk of going around in circles, i’m saying it again…

    this is me and i will write anything, everything that i think matters without any other reason, not even what others think about it. because if you think of what other people will think about what you write, you risk the freedom to write the one thing that you really feel – without bias or prejudice or shades of pat-in-the-back ego boosters.

    then again, it’s just me. and kikayness is not lio loco. there goes the differences in opinion.

    peace y’all!

    • Reesie says:

      again lio, i am not talking about how one should write his/her blog.. i am talking about how one should interact with their readers/other bloggers and why classify them? additionally, kung namimili tayo ng matalinong bloggers lang.. ang tano ko, paano mo malalaman na matalino talaga ang isang tao? dahil lang how he/she writes?

      but i have to agree with kikayness though on this.

    • kikayness says:

      ay para sa’kin ba ito?

      …no, i’m not sayin that you censure your thoughts and ust write about mundane stuff para lang wala kang masagasaan…

      …i think Reesie’s post is general in nature, not really about you….from what i understand, bloggers also need to see whether tama pa ba yung post nila or may mga tao na silang nasasaktan…example, if you make a post stating na bobo mga taong hinde marunong mag-english, that’s below the belt na…but if you blog about your own angst, etc, who are the readers to judge you?

      …at talagang dito ako nag-ekplain…hinde po kami nag-aaway ni Lio, ganit lang po talaga kami mag-usap ahehehehe

      …pasintabi po sa may-ari ng blog

      • lio loco says:

        i’m not saying considering others’ opinions will censor your thoughts. of course, in a way, it will affect the way you write because you will eventually think whether what you write will have a negative impact on the readers. and there, we become split with our points.

        you, insisting to consider their feelings because they’re your readers.

        me, insisting not to because it will just give you biases and pre-conceived reactions from them. and because i don’t care if i have no reader at all.

        hindi talaga tayo magkakasundo. ayoko nang makipagtalo. hahahay!

  11. lio loco says:

    okei. nagreact ako. tangina. pa-ingles ingles pa ko, hindi naman pala patungkol sakin ‘tong post na ‘to. haha!

    sorry po, miss reesie.

    but i stand by what i said. sorry kikayness pero hindi maaaring bilhin ang opinyon mo. basta ako, magsusulat ako nang magsusulat nang walang pakialam sa kung anong sasabihin ng iba.i can’t say this is right. and you can’t say yours is right either. there is no right or wrong. only perspectives.

    kbye! hahaha!

    • Reesie says:

      at mega effort ka talaga. guilty ever.. bwahaha! di ba nakatago blog mo? paano maging tungkol sayo tong post ko?

      • lio loco says:

        oo na. guilty na. eh anong magagawa ko, parang lahat na lang ng birada mo ako ung natatamaan. lololol!

        yeah, nakatago siya sa sangkablogosperyohan. piling pili lang ang pwedeng makaalam. hehe. tanong mo na lang kay kikayness. kasama siya sa listahan. hahaha!

        yeah, we’re like frends na ule, di ba? betcha by golly wow, i’m so conio! lololol!

  12. lio loco says:

    whoops… mali. hindi KO maaaring bilhin po un. lololol! nagmamadali!

  13. lio loco says:

    at ayokong makisawsaw sa mainit na sawsawan kung hindi naman ako inaalok. whooo! *fans the tongue* so hooooot in here!

  14. livingstain says:

    oo nga, tama ka jan, andaming tao na nagpapanggap na matalino but then wala naman palang kwenta ang utak… toink…

    kapag ang isang tao maingay o laging ipinagmamalaki kung anong meron sya for sure walang laman yan…

    “ang lata maingay kapag walang laman”

    hi reesee!

  15. dencios says:

    nice read.

    di ko nga ba kasi alam kung bakit may lebel ang tao kahit sa blogosperyo e.

    basta ako di makikisiksik.

    kung ayaw sa blog ko e di wag sila pumunta kesa naman sa lalaitin lang nila ang piktyur ko.

    kanya kanya lang naman iyan.

    tama din yung dapat nagbe-blend tayo sa ibang tao pero minsan kasi kanya2 personalidad talaga. may ibang hindi kakayanin ng ugali mo kahit gaano kapa ka warm ng presens mo.

    • Reesie says:

      appiyr denz! ang sa akin lang naman, sana walang alienation na nangyayari sa blogosphere. kaya nga may discrimination eh dahil sa line of thinking na iyan.

    “hi, nice blog. xlinks?”

  17. flamindevil says:

    “hi, nice blog. xlinks?”

    oh joke lang yan..hehe

    sino ba yan ms.reesie at awayin natin?may point ka dyan, buti nga may nagbabasa ng blog mo.instead of being thankful, these people are making an a**hole out of themselves.

    sa blogging naman, walang dapat sundin.walang rules,walang deadlines. as long as you feel good about what you’ve written, it’s definitely right. :p

  18. Winkie says:

    gaya ako ke rye…

    “hi, nice blog. xlinks?” whehehe!

    i don’t know the real story behind this but i totally agree with you’ve written here, reese. bloggers come from different walks of life so we can never expect that we all have the same wavelength (borrowed term from lio). some prefers to discuss controversial ones but others opt to keep it personal (just like me). and as i have written in one of my comments, there’s no rule in blogging. bloggers can write in whatever language they prefer, post entries they desire or whatever they want to do with their blog. kung wrong grammar eh ano naman ngayon?! (madami din kasi ako wrong grammar, hehehe!) readers shouldn’t be too judgmental nor insensitive. kanya-kanyang trip lang yan, walang pakialaman. kung di trip ang blog, eh di wag basahin. walang namang namililit eh! :P

    isa lang ang masasabi ko.

    kahit hindi ako intellectual at mabait na tao, at least sure akong maganda ako!

    yadz,

    nawindang ko sa mga comments here. naa lagi’y mag-away noh? i hope magpeace na sila. =)

    mahadlok man pod ta magblog oi. hehehe

    pasagdi na mga intellectual morons. if they are too snob to accommodate their readers then they are not intellectuals at all. baka baliw. di ba yung mga baliw nagsasalita mag-isa? =)

    for me good writers write for their readers regardless of differences in race, IQ, social status (kadaghang jologs nga brayt ah), etc. how readers react, good or bad, should serve as inspiration.

    and mas baliw sila if they would curtail freedom of expression (like magbuot-buot unsay dapat iblog ug dili dapat iblog). so ideadma na sila. if ayaw nila sayo, dapat mas ayaw mo sa kanila, k? =)

    don’t mind the “other” malditz, you know who you are and at least you have friends, real friends. Why are you even bothered by someone so insecure?

    Fwend,

    Taka ako baka kako naliligaw lang ba ako o duling lang ako dahil alas tres ng umaga na dito or what. Akala ko palasyo ni Reyna Elena ito. Nyahahha. May nagsasapakan na din pala dito. LOL.

    Anyhoot, hindi naman talaga sukatan ng intelligence ng isang blogger ang kanyang blog. Hindi naman siya psychometric tool para sukatan ng intelligence right?

    Ewan ko ba,madaming baggers este bloggers na feeling matalino talaga. Put high falutin words here and there. Mangiinsulto pa ang readers nila. Pero wag ka, walang sustansiya naman ang mga pinagsusulat. Parang katulad sa classroom, pasikat sa teacher at sa mga classmates, bodyak naman sa exam.

    Yun lang sa tingin ko.

    Hahaha. This is the reason why patok na patok ang website na icanhazcheezburger.com. It’s so cute to murder the English language. Iba na rin kasi ang lingo in this internet age eh. Yung mga Pinoy who expect pormalidad live in the primitive era!

    marami akong natutunan just reading the comments… andaming mga lumalabas. maygas!

    reesie, you really know how to stir up a hornets’ nest. :D kowngrats! hehehe.

    pero lost pa rin ako. reesie, name names! sino (or sino sino) ba yan? :P i know all about the whole PG brouhaha before… pero me bagong isyu pala? :P

    my two cents on this is: it’s your blog, it’s your space, it’s your rules. if you don’t like what you’re reading on this blog, the simple solution is don’t read it! hehehe! di ba di ba? :D

    • Reesie says:

      hoy diego jose..name names ka diyan..hehehe. tsismoso ka talga. haha.

      my post is general in nature. actually matagal na to naka pending ngayon ko lang na post. for the sake of everybody (mga tsismosa kayo!), this post is inspired by that matandang hukloban. take note of the word inspired… hindi talga para sa kanya. bow!

    • supersawsaw says:

      yun o…

      my two cents on this is: it’s your blog, it’s your space, it’s your rules. if you don’t like what you’re reading on this blog, the simple solution is don’t read it! hehehe! di ba di ba?

      natumbok mo, deejay!

      basta sa akin, sabihin na nila kung ano gusto nila. sige kahit sabihan pa ako patay-gutom… mura-murahin nila ako, ok lang. hanggang dun na lang naman magagawa nila eh. kahit magsawa sila. at least, alam mo naman kung sino ka. yung mga elitista, marami talaga yan.

      ang di makuha ng iba, pare-parehas lang tayo dito sa internet. walang mataas, walang mababa. que magaling ka magsulat or hindi, basta nade-deliver mo yung message ok na yun. look at neil patel (quicksprout.com), may mga panahong mali-mali ang grammar nun. pero yung mga topic nun, napakaganda. so in between an article with high-falutin words but useless crap and another using layman’s term but valuable, dun na ako sa huli di ba? aanhin ko ang blog post na kailangan ko pa mag “define:gobbledygook” tuwing magbabasa ako?

      stats? wala na ako pakialam dyan.

      Over the past few years I have started 2 blogs. Although my first blog was a Technorati 100 blog, the content was crap. Readers didn’t care to read the content or engage in the conversation (comment on the blog).

      Quick Sprout on the other hand isn’t a Technorati 100 blog, but you actually read the content and engage. I constantly am getting great feedback from you and requests to write more content.

      so hayaan mo na lng sila. maiisip din ng mga yan na pantay-pantay lang tayo. sana lang bago sila mamatay, ma-realize nila yan.
