And now, what’s really on everyone’s mind. Reality TV! Reality TV! Reality TV!
It began with an observation by Divergent Poles. It was scientifically analyzed by both Yuga, and by The cAt (in her blog and in a comment that reveals her research), there is even a comparison of the Mainstream Media to the Blogosphere (with pie charts and other nifty things!). The conclusion? Showbiz trumps political blogs. O tempore! O mores! Oh, captain, my captain: Gin Capitan! Tanduay, the number one rhum. Drink Moderately. Tagay na, Pinoy Big Brother! Ah, yes. That’s the subject. Let’s unite stream-of-conciousness writing with the topic.
Let’s just put in random statements and key words. shall we? Pinoy Big Brother secrets exposed. Yes, Pinoy Big Brother secret pictures. Pinoy Big Brother cheese curls. Pinoy Big Brother Burger (actually, Pinoy Big Burger). Pinoy Big Brother Healthy & Beauty Tips. Pinoy Big Brother Sinigang for the Soul.
Pinoy Big Brother history and politics. Adios, Pinoy Big Brother adorada. Pagmamahal sa tinubuang Pinoy Big Brother. Little Brown Pinoy Big Big Brother. I prefer Big Brother run like hell by Filipinos to Big Brother run like heaven by Americans. Pinoy Big Brother shall return. Pinoy Big Brother can be great again. Pinoy Big Brother Pa Rin! Tama Na, Sobra Na, Pinoy Big Brother Na! Sa Pinoy Big Brother, walang kumpa-kumpare, walang kama-kamaganak, walang kaibi-kaibigan. Strong Pinoy Big Brother. Pinoy Big Brother Resign! Pinoy Big Brother Remain! Pinoy Big Brother Ready for Takeoff. Pinoy Big Brother, Make the Ultimate Sacrifice. Pinoy Big Brother: Because Color TV Doesn’t Come in Shades of Gray. Pinoy Big Brother ng Masa. Pinoy Big Brother ng Demokratikong Pilipino. Nationalist Pinoy Big Brother Coalition. Nacionalista Pinoy Big Brother. Liberal Pinoy Big Brother. Lakas-Christian & Muslim Pinoy Big Brother. Barangay Big Brother. Barrio of Pinoy Big Brother. Municipality of Pinoy Big Brother. Province of Pinoy Big Brother. Region of Pinoy Big Brother. Republic of the Pinoy Big Brother.
I hate Pinoy Big Brother! Oh wait. I love Pinoy Big Brother! Wait. I’ve never actually seen Pinoy Big Brother. So maybe, let’s just move on. Oh, brother! Or is it, Brother, Can You Spare A Dime? Mag Big Brother Tayo Tuwing Umaga, Tuwing Umaga...(Original song lyrics not enclosed. Some assembly required).
More gratuitous key words. Chris Aquino action photos. Chris Aquino videos. Chris Aquino secret love life romance orchids. Chris Aquino will not appear as a celebrity endorser of Pinoy Big Brother. But she and will appear on that next TV classic, Battle of the Billboards, hosted by Carlos Celdran (complete with Carlos reciting that famous Pinoy cultural monologue for fame and giggles: “What is dat? Is dat your peanut? Is beri, beri big! So big! Too big! Ang laki ng **** mo! Aruy… you pansit-eating mother hamper!”). And other cultural treasures (There was the original script for the Blair Witch Project, it was titled, Goldilocks and the Three Blairs.)
Again, I digress. Why did the chicken cross the road? Because the Pinoy Big Brother house was on the other side. How many does it take to screw in a lightbulb on Pinoy Big Brother? Answer: none, because that’s not the thing that needs screwing (hyuk, hyuk, hyuk, dirty, dirty! Blame it on that comic masterpiece, How Adsense pollutes the blogosphere: EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH SAM OF PINOY BIG BROTHER!)
Well, anyway, it’s time for the Revenge of the Nerds. I have the solution. It’s called, Pinoy Big Blogger. The latest thing on online reality TV. You don’t have to own a TV to watch Pinoy Big Blogger. You just… Well, have to own a computer… with an internet connection… and sufficient bandwidth… But hey. It’s free. Free internet reality TV. With Podcasts even. Hopefully. All you have to do is vote to pick the competing group of Pinoy Big Bloggers. Then you can, you know, say stuff, text stuff, post stuff, then vote them off the blogosphere or something.

Mahilig lang talaga sa rebak ang mga pinoy
That’s why all eldest siblings feel heavily burdened yet sometimes overly protective…..
Good thing this blog came
was about to do a monologue again in the previous blog….
He ain’t heavy, he’s my Pinoy Big Brother!
last entry promise…
what I meant was restback
karl nakakatawa ka 😛
dawin that’s so funny… haha!
PBB = eww.
Have this theory that Malacanang had a hand in all of these PBB thing. Remember unang lumabas ang PBB nung kainitan ng mga pag-ra-rally against GMA and clamors for her to step down? Di kaya may conspiracy among ABS-CBN, Endemol and Malacanang to pacify the then-very-restless masses? PBB na lang para tumigil ang mga Pinoy gabi-gabi sa bahay at manood ng PBB? Sino nga bang tuta ni GMA ang pumunta ng Netherlands nung mga panahon na yun at parang nakipagdeal yata sa Endemol? (hihi)
Oo nga. Trash is the new estoteric. Big Brother. I am spared the addiction to this one but I see the damage it has done to the society around me.
Manolo you just gave me an idea!
I usually blog hop but never put together a round up of the things that I have read. I think I will follow your example here. I think, bloggers that are interested in producing original content should spread the word if they come accross great content.
Anyway, thanks!
mell, yup, roundups are important, we can’t read everything and trust the people we read to do some reading for us, too.
manolo,
sige i will do the daily round up myself, since I’ve benefited so much from your round ups. just hope they’re as interesting as yours…..
pang nanalo sa pinoy bigbrother isuportahan kita ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It still feels weird whenever people call that adsense entry of mine “a masterpiece”; I’d be happy if people would just walk away, scratch their heads and say “wtf?”
I’m intrigued with the Pinoy Big Blogger concept; hope somebody could put this thing in motion 🙂

I never used to like Big brother but i watched the 2005 series and now i am a big fan. Does anyone know when the 06 series begins?
Many thanks and great blog.
Against an enemy. How good bad music and bad reasons sound when one marches against an enemy!
stop smoking now and your family will love you !
