The new DOT slogan has invoked mixed reviews from the public, but it has also inspired many to participate and create numerous memes on the countless things one thinks is more fun in the Philippines. Here is mine.
There is one thing all middle-class working citizens have in common: most of them commute to work. And unlike first world countries who have highly efficient transportation system, ours is admittedly a bit lacking, and quite chaotic. But the way I see it, unlike the predictable and routine ways of rush hour commuting in other countries, here in Manila, everyday is an adventure waiting to happen. It may not be fast or even comfortable, but it is surely an experience that is uniquely Filipino.
10. Yung nirereject ng LRT2 vending machines yung mga piso mo kasi dinidiscriminate nila ang 2010 series at wala ka ng ibang barya.
9. Yung ginagawa kang unan ng katabing mong natutulog sa bus.
8. Yung nandiyan na ang tren at paakyat ka palang sa platform tapos may nakabara na lovers sa escalator ayaw magpadaan.
7. Yung ang sarap na ng tulog mo sabay bababa yung katabi mo sa FX.
6. Yung magbabayad ka sa jeep tapos walang gustong mag-abot.
5. Yung nagbabayad lahat sa jeep tapos ikaw naman ang abot ng abot.
4. Yung pag sinabi ng jeep na may isa pang bakante na upuan sa loob, ibig sabihin nun magpapanggap kang nakaupo habang naka-squat hanggang may bumaba na pasahero.
3. Yung patawid ka na ng kalsada sabay may haharang na jeep/bus sa harap mo pinipilit kang sumakay.
2. Yung moment na male-LATE ka na, tapos nagpa-gas pa yung Jeep/FX na sinasakyan mo.
...and my personal favorite, the one thing everybody has probably encountered at one time or another...
1. Yung feeling na ikaw ang huling sasakay sa gitnang part ng FX tapos hindi mo maisara yung pinto.

I should add...yung tipong pang-tatluhan lang talaga yung isang row sa fx/van tapos ginagawang apatan, to the point na nahuhulog ka na and pagbaba mo nagmamanhid na yung butt mo :)
fave ko yung pang-sampu at pangalawa, haha
check lahat.. #4 the best like it's an endurance challenge..Hooh! sakit sa tuhod. And may I add in commuting? Sa #2 yung mahuhuli ka na tapos yung sinsakyan mo na PUV sinusuyod lahat ng pasahero lalo na sa bus. While during rush hour gawin ba naman na moving sardines ang lrt haha. Yup, that's why it's more fun in the Philippines. We learn to be humble everyday.
