Self-Incriminating Irony of Ironies

The irony of ironies...

The irony of ironies is that a fraternity brother for a neophyte has been killed from hazing by his supposedly "big brothers" who pledged an oath of brotherhood...

The irony of ironies is that he died at the hands of those he thought were to eventually give him a hand, however gave him a closed fist that handed him his eventual death...

The irony of ironies is that he sensed his decision to have made sense to join the fraternity of his choice based on “trustworthy members”, yet they suspiciously led him to his senseless death...

The irony of ironies is that those who are expected to pick you up when you’re down, picked you up and unexpectedly put you down...

The irony of ironies is that a criminal act has been committed by those wanting to fight off criminality as would-be lawyers...

The irony of ironies is that these people wanting to be part of the justice system are into obstruction of justice...

The irony of ironies is that the truth backed by a strong evidence is apparently weakened by a similarly backed-up corroboration of alibis...

The irony of ironies is that the invoking of right against self-incrimination as some “code of silence” is, for all its blatant indications, a decoding of a resonating invocation of self-condemnation...

The irony of ironies is that despite the turn of events pointing to their “illegal physicalities”, events have turned leading to legal technicalities...

The irony of ironies is that despite the manifestation of guilt beyond reasonable doubt, there is however the assumption of innocence by means of a seemingly unreasonable procedural law...

The irony of ironies is that the obligatory “the law is the law” for a firm affirmation as a regulative protocol to protect the rights of people, lacks an admissible severity by which it likewise serves to protect the rights of law breakers who didn’t oblige by it in the first place...

The irony of ironies is that these incongruities are actually logical means that prove the irony behind our own cynicism...

Stop The Hate

And spread the love... I could have used “Spread The Love” for a title and the “stop the hate” for an onset instead... However, nowadays, a more intriguing issue leaning on negativity stirs a more engaging traction; when subject is abject. “Vilify and it goes viral; praise and it (apparently) goes to waste...” Also, I could have just merged the two as it should be; given that when you stop the hate, it should correspond with spreading the love. But then, what’s rampant along today’s society is how people would rather pay attention to other people’s “negative attributes” to conjure up prodding against those being maligned instead of focusing on (their) fine qualities that merit compliments. For some, they forego of the possibility of being labeled as “humble brags” which similarly get misinterpreted (probably out of envy) and turn into critical imputations from others. Thus, they turn into the opposite as critics instead and express something else against anyone/thing from

Rain, Rain, Go Away. Walang Pasok Anyway

“Walang pasok” might as well be for “wala ng (puma)pasok na pag-unawa” among us... Suspension of classes during this rainy/typhoon season here in Baguio and Benguet has been a constant issue. Both are under separate government units. Thus, its respective local government’s discretion on such weather-concerning decision is rather sought, apparently for all the “authority and liability” aspect’s worth. One major concern however is that, there seems to be a discrepancy on the two governing bodies’ jurisdictions along the inclement weather’s path (and radius), geographically within a common “area of responsibility” which raises these concerns: Baguio is in Benguet What if a student happens to be a resident of, say, La Trinidad but studies in Baguio or vice versa... Do we have to rely (every time) on their discretion? How about considerations leaning towards common sense which could affect one’s academic performance (isn’t that ironic) ... will it be taken against the stud

Uncles and Aunties of Baguio: Who We Are is Who We Were

While it’s true that it was patterned from, as well as inspired by the far more reaching “Titos and Titas of Manila” Facebook group which apparently has been conceptualized from its recently implied premise, “ Uncles and Aunties of Baguio “ on the other hand was initially thought of and created for the purpose of a more nonchalant acceptance given its commonplace exclusivity other than reliving the good old times as an acknowledgment of the difference from any other generation. Come to think of it, the connotation behind “Tito/Tita of (what place) ” as currently referred to doesn’t actually have “that sweet” forethought. It’s almost leaning towards “that sourness” caught between “nagmumurang kamatis” and being “may asim pa” ... Imagine (say) one in his 40s at a party among a bunch most likely half his age “leveling” with the young ones still yet courteously addressed as “Tito” (not to mention, that’s with ”po” and ”opo” )... However, not to appear defensive and at the same ti
