M: 365 Days


even before Netflix released this "controversial' Polish movie and way before it became the most viewed film o the platform worldwide, a bootleg copy was already sitting warmly in my inbox for weeks courtesy of a group chat email. No one can deny that Filipinos are at the top of the totem pole when it comes to digital networking.

M: American Graffiti

M: Jo Koy: In His Elements

for some reason i don't find Jo Koy's Pinoy-centric jokes funny. i watched "Live from Seattle" a while back and gave "In His Elements" a shot a few nights ago yet it still has not changed my opinion on him. Maybe it's because have drinking friends who are funnier with better lines and spiels. ;)
