SEEN: Baklavaji

A Turkish sweets shop in Maidan Hawally
HUMOR: With due respect to the members of the third sex,  "baklava" sounds like the Filipino phrase "bakla ba?" rougly translated "Is he gay?" or "Are you gay?".

FACTS:  Baklavaji is a sweets shop in Maidan Hawally selling popular Turkish sweets particularly the "baklava".

Baklava is a rich, sweet pastry made of layers of phyllo dough, filled with chopped nuts and sweetened with syrup and honey. It is a widely popular dessert in the Middle East, served in every special occasions.

Ji is generally used as a suffix in names and title in the Indian subcontinent.

SEEN: Toot Berry

A newly-opened juice shop in Maidan Hawally

HUMOR:  Somehow, it sounds like "tooth fairy" to me...

HUMOR: The phrase "toot berry" is actually a pleonasm or a redundant term. "Toot" is a Persian-derived term for "berry" or to be specific the "mulberry" fruit, so it's like saying "berry berry".

FACTS: Toot or mulberry is widely used as a tea (toot chai) or juice drink (sharab el toot) in Lebanon and in other parts of the Middle East..

SEEN: Obama Arrested?

UP NEXT: ARRESTED
Screen capture today (May 6) from TV Patrol, a Philippine News Program (ABS-CBN). 
Whoever it is controlling the graphics must be busy wondering " Where are the photos from the Bin Laden raid?!"

But this one's a major FAIL!

Road Scenes: Please Wash Me


Someone forgets to wash his ride...............and someone cares to remind him of that :)

SEEN: Would you like FRINCH FRISE with your normal BORGER?

I got hold of this menu from a neighborhood restaurant..Not counting the transliterated Arabic, see how many spelling mistakes can you find :)..



Don't you feel hungry ?? Would you like to have some CHICKEN STIK (chicken steak)? or some SUSEGE (sausage)? Me, I think I'd have a CLOP SANDWICH (club sandwich) and a serving of COLOSLO (coleslaw) on the side.. :)

Ang Misteryo ng Nawawalang French Fries

The Mystery of the Missing French Fries


One day, a group of friends decided to eat at McDonald's.
They eat and chat happily.
While Jamie sits quietly in the corner, thinking " How can I finish my burger?"
As time passes by, they continued to have fun.
They did not notice one more french fries remained.
And Princie secretly took it. " This is mine hehehe".
When they finally noticed, they immediately look for it.
Jamie: " I don't know about it, I still haven't finish my burger"
Cristina: " It was just there awhile ago..it must've taste so good"
Ara: : " Yes, I agree..especially with catsup and mayo"
Mayleen: " Hmmm..who would've take it?"
Princie: " I will just pretend I don't know anything."
Cristina: "It was not captured in the CCTV monitor."
Mayleen: " Could it be Jamie?"
Racquel: " Try to check the video"
Mayleen: " I can't see anything here"
Racquel: " Why don't  you try to open your eyes?"
Princie: " I will just keep pretending."
Mayleen: " Tell me honestly, you're the one who took the fries, right?"
Princie: " Eh, just between us ok?"
Mayleen: " Of course, we're friends!..but, share it with me ok?"
Princie: "Yup, don't worry this is the last..Promise, the next time we see each other again,
               I will be sexier than you!"

Princie: " Ok, bye..see you again"
Mayleen: " Hey, hide that paper bag you crazy!"

Princie and Mayleen: " This L is for you...We're the winners!"

Road Scenes: How about "Rest in Peace?"

Sleep well...for life.

My attention was instantly caught by this advertisement on a truck parked outside our building. I don't know but that slogan just doesn't sound right..What do you think?

Optical Illusions and Mindfuck

There is optical illusions and there is mind fuck..two different terms, two different things interrelated to each other, both being the manner we see or perceive things around us.

Optical Illusions are visually perceived images that are misleading or deceptive..I am fan of these illusions, like these examples below found in this website.



Mindfuck, meanwhile, is anything that messes or screws the mind. It can be a movie that uses misdirection that leads to an unexpected ending or twists, like the movie " Sixth Sense" "The Usual Suspects" or "The Others".

It can also be a normal, sometimes funny, looking photo with a discreet message, like the ones below. More mindfuck images can be found here.



Either way we look at things, it is always healthy to stimulate our eyes..and brains every now and then, right?

Dark Closet

A woman takes a lover home during the day while her husband is at work.

Her 9-year old son comes home unexpectedly, he sees them and hides in the bedroom closet to watch.

The woman's husband also comes home.
She puts her lover in the closet, not realizing that the little boy is in there already.

The little boy says, "Dark in here."
The man says, "Yes, it is."
Boy: "I have a baseball."
Man: "That's nice"
Boy: "Want to buy it?"
Man: "No, thanks."
Boy: "My Dad's outside."
Man: "OK, how much?"
Boy: "$250"

In the next few weeks, it happens again that the boy and the lover are in the closet together....

Boy: "Dark in here."
Man: "Yes, it is."

Boy: "I have a baseball glove."
The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy, "How much?"
Boy: "$750"

Man: "Sold."

A few days later, the

Dad says

to the boy, "Grab your glove,

let's go outside and have a game of catch."
The boy says, "I can't, I sold my baseball and my glove."

The Dad asks, "How much did you sell them for?"

Boy: "$1,000"

The Dad says, "That's terrible to over charge your friends like that...that is way more than those two things cost. I'm taking you to church, to confession."

They go to the church and the Dad makes the little boy sit in the confessional booth and closes the door.

The boy says, "Dark in here...."

The priest says, "Don't start that shit again; you're in my closet now..."

Girls Gone Bad?

Two women friends had gone for a girl's night out. Both were
very faithful and loving wives, however, they had gotten
over-enthusiastic with the Bacardi Breezers. Incredibly drunk and walking home
they needed to pee, so they stopped in the cemetery.

One of them had nothing to wipe with so she thought she would
take off her panties and use them. Her friend, however was wearing a
rather expensive pair of panties and did not want to ruin them. She
was lucky enough to squat down next to a grave that had a wreath with a
ribbon on it, so she proceeded to wipe with that.

After the girls did their business they proceeded to go home.
The next day one of the women's husbands was concerned that his
normally sweet and innocent wife was still in bed hung over, so he phoned the
other husband and said, 'These girl nights have got to stop! I'm
starting to suspect the worst.. my wife came home
with no panties!!' 'That's nothing' said the other husband, 'Mine came back with a card
stuck to her ass that said.....

"From all of us at the Fire Station. We'll never forget you."
