it's in our vernacular so non-bisaya speaking friends won't "get" the joke/s. contrary to popular belief, NOT EVERYBODY who comes from the philippines speak tagalog. the people from the two biggest islands Visayas and Mindanao speak BISAYA. god how i hate it when people ask me if i speak tagalog! because i really don't. i speak broken tagalog and it's really hard to get my message across. like when this gas guy came over at the house, he's like, "you filipino?" so i say "yes" and he said "maraming salamat" (many thanks in tagalog) and i responded back "you're welcome" nice! now he must think i'm some whitewashed asshole. i can't think fast enough to say "walang anuman" (you're welcome in tagalog)...wait do tagalog people even use that phrase anymore??? thank god i didn't marry a tagalog guy because i would totally confuse him on a daily basis. lol whatever, BISAYA rules!

p.s. oh and i hate ignorant tagalog people who snicker and laugh and ask if it's a foreign language whenever i speak bisaya. tsk tsk, some people were not taught diversity by their mommas -- so tragic!
