Jeepney Rant.

source I know jeepneys are convenient and all that but sometimes I don't really understand. Okay maybe not the jeepney itself. The people, the driver, everything else. It's just so annoying sometimes. Like, really. Let me just point out some of the things that I hate about riding a jeepney. 1. I hate it when the people would extend their arms and address it to the driver when it's obviously not feasible for the driver to get their fare directly. Ano ba naman yung sabihin mong paki-abot diba? It really annoys me when people would say "bayad mama" and then put their arms in my front and don't say anything after that. So ako na pala yung driver? I mean, as a normal human being, hindi po hahaba yang kamay mo. So say "pakiabot" naman. 2.

She was like "oh! you have two phones! I didn't know that." and the guy sarcastically said "no, three." It's a Filipino way of like whatever-ing and it's fcking annoying. And then the guy said "that's because I'm a spoiled kid" and I was like WTF? He didn't even look like he took a shower for like a week and he's gonna brag about it? Give me a break. Plus! his phones aren't that great. Not great at all. The girl then told him something about their school play and stuff like that but this guy doesn't seem interested and just continued ...
