Call it an uncanny kind of irony, but the last time I've posted an opinion on this blog (sponsors open) it completely did the opposite. When I've mentioned how hot it is the rainy season came. Maybe I should mention what I want. Let's start: Uhm, I hope we can go to Boracay with my girlfriend, get more sleep, lose weight, I hope I can introduce my gf to my college friends, kiss Ehra Madrigal's boobs and salary increase at work. Here's hoping...
The kids today are so freakin' lucky. Not just because they can get information easily, or how easy it is to get discovered these days( if they're opting to be a bonafide celebrity) , but they can "wank off" easily just by browsing the tv. Local channels even. Back in my day (now I sound old...) we had to settle for Donita Rose's from her Ober Da Bakod days or Regine Tolentino's from her Palibhasa Lalake days creamy legs. Now kids can easily gawk all they want from Ehra Madrigal, Angel Locsin, Katrina Halili and Marian Rivera's various "assets" on their respective telenovelas or fantaseryes. Lucky kids...
Speaking of kids, it seems hard to look at the future without it looking a little grim. I mean, videogame magazine EGM did present a lot of games that took place in the future as apocalyptic. There's always talks of climate change everywhere. I remember a lesser-known comic strip character that oddly looks like carbonated drink Sprite's mascot, Fido Dido saying " doesn't my generation get to screw anything up?" amid t-shirt statements of "Save the Earth", "Save the Whales", etc. Hopefully Earth will still be inhabitable 30 years from now.
I'm glad PSICOM Publishing is printing recent story arcs from Marvel and DC Comics for less than 100php. It's pretty fulfilling reading these stories if you're just following a story and not collecting variant covers for money. On a related note, Spiderman's stories these days is for new people who don't know much of his old stories. It's fun to read, yet the part where his webbing is not organic and has to always conserve it gets tiring. I mean, it doesn't have to be part of the story all the time. But this is just geek talk for me.
