You Are A Filipino If (Ip)...
Are you a Filipino? What are the different obvious indications to prove that you really are a Filipino?
If not, do know anyone from the Philippines? How can you say that they really are Filipinos?
You are a Filipino if:
If not, do know anyone from the Philippines? How can you say that they really are Filipinos?
You are a Filipino if:
- you prefer Friendster instead of Facebook or at least have been a Friendster addict once in your life.
- you turn around immediately whenever someone says,"Psst!" .
- the word "Hoy!" is always in your vocabulary.
- you point with your lips (like I usually do) and not with your fingers.
- you feel comfortable walking down the street even if there are naked people around you.
- your family and friends always gather together somewhere only to watch Manny Pacquiao's fights.
- you put your hand together in front of you before passing in the middle of a huge crowd and say,"Excuse. Excuse. Excuse", until you finally have gotten through.
- a meal will always be incomplete without rice.
- you love to eat without using tablespoon and fork.
- you do the "appear" (high five) gesture while laughing with your friends or family.
- you say "prigider or ref" instead of refrigerator or fridge.
- you love pronouncing EP (F) or FI (P) and Bi (V) or Vi (B) and vice versa.
Example1: I lab the pud so much. Pantastik!
Example2: Vaket vah, hah?
Example3: I am a Pilifino!
Example4: Do you hab a Peysbook account? Can we bi prends?
Example5: Pipty Payb Fesos - Goldilocks is not just a fairytale for you. It's one of your favorite bakeshops!
- at least once in your life, "Otso otso" has been playing in your brain 24 hours a day.
- you are rarely on time.
- you can at least sing.
- you have either Wow Magic Sing or Ziller O (what I have) at home. If not, at least you want to own one.
- you choose to add hotdogs in your spaghetti.
- you support Black Eyed Peas, The Pussycat Dolls and Sugababes just because each group has one member who is half-Pinoy.
- you do not mind drinking softdrinks in a plastic bag with a straw.
- you love "ube" flavoured ice cream.
- you prefer instant coffee instead of brewed.
- you make a square on the air with your thumbs and fingers when asking for the bill.
- you prefer staying under the shade instead of being under the sun.
- you nod backwards (usually with eyebrows stretch upwards) when you mean yes.
- you scratch your head when you don't know the answer to a question or when you're confused.
- you either support WoWoWee or Eat Bulaga and most of the time, get into confrontations because of these two tv shows.
- you love "picture picture".
- you do the pa-cute pose
at least 99% of the time.
- when you're in the Philippines, you wish you're living somewhere outside the Philippines. But when you're living somewhere outside the Philippines, you wish you're living in the Philippines.
Note: This post is entirely created for fun and not to insult my fellow Filipinos. I am honestly proud to be Pinoy! Peace!

Of course I was waiting for pa-cute to appear ... thus love the fact that you included it at the end. So from what I can gather, you eat hot-dog spaghetti with your hands. Now that would be a pa-cute picture!
