anatess2 Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 There are some stuff that are just funny about the Philippines. This is a people that love to name their kids like doorbell sounds - Bing, Bong, Ding, Dong, Ping, Pong. And what's more - they're not satisfied with just one sound so they double it - Dongdong, Bongbong, Jinggong... Lately, I've been noticing the Filipino creativity in store names. classylady, lostinwater, zil and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroTypical Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I like "Engrish", which is unintentional, but these are intentional! Funny is funny, but clever funny is wit! And wit rocks. anatess2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neat pictures! i have a colleague who spent a couple years as an ex-pat in Manila. He enjoyed it. Very nice and friendly people. Only moved back because his wife wasn't compatible with the weather.
