Overheard

I was standing beside two Pinoy guys on the train today, when this middle-aged lady started squeezing her way past to get to a ‘better’ position on the crowded train.

Guy 1: Nababad trip ako sa mga sumisiksik ng ganyan, wala na ngang lugar.

Guy 2: Oo nga eh.

Guy 1: Pero ilang beses na din ako nasabihan, pag lumapit ako sa pinto para bumaba. Sabi sa akin, “Can’t you wait till the door opens?”. Sagot ko: “What do you expect me to do? Fly?”

Haha, that just made me want to snicker. Pinoy humour talaga.

Funny lang, because they were talking about basketball – apparently Guy 1 plays basketball in a league here in Singapore. And he was saying something about how intense guys can get. Then they started talking about PBA players..and heh, they were talking about players I used to watch when I was a kid too! Distrito, Jawo, Caidic, Jolas…haha.
