Here's more:

1. obviously hinde. maybe they only get to watch ung part ng movie na kasama sila.
2.  of course! we all know what you mean  by "cornered" here.
3.  meron commercial ang skycable kahit sa regular tv. ung 288 (?)pesos na subscription for 20 channels.
4.merong clear vanilla extract. my mom use it for recipes  that calls for vanilla pero di dapat maging brown ang kulay.
5.  it's the way the product is designed. why not ask, why are doritos triangular? why are sun chips rippled?

6. you can actually call it a goldware.
7. it does come in other colors too. meron green.
8. it's a marketing ploy. madaming naloloko jan. imagine hearing "free gift". free pa lang maganda ng pakinggan. tapos meron pa gift. haha. labo.
9.di ba dapat? aren't fire lanes made for fire trucks? they definitely can park there lalo na pag may fire.
10.well, some people who pray can be put in the loony bin too.

hmm.. anu ung loony bin?

loony means crazy, baliw, siraulo. so when someone puts you into the loony bin, it only means that someone thinks of you as a crazy person.

more like to explain it further, baliw ang tingin sa iyo ng mga tao kapag sinabi mong "inutusan ako ng Diyos para gawin ito" ala Noah's Ark, na wala naman halos maniwala.

pero kapag sinasabi mong kinakausap ko si God, nagdadasal ka lang and it would be considered normal.

1. they only act.
2. not literally
3. i dont think so. they do advertise in regular programming such as in uaap where they promote uaap in HD.
4. in fact, there is a clear vanilla extract just like white syrup in consistency and color.
5. to fit in the mouth much easier.

11. why does a fire hydrant contain water?
12. if 7 eleven convenience stores are open 24/7, what do they need the door locks for?
13. why is it that toplessness in women is not "allowed" in our society? are they deadly weapons of some sort? You'll see people tote their guns and knives, those things kill things. But not boobies.

i like your explanation on the pringles thing. although if pringles are flat, they can always put 'em in a box.  ;D

ang pagiging curved rin niya ang nagiging rason sa mga durog na pringles sa ilalim.

i dont know. we do have different hands in different sizes and color but we are free to show it, unlike those hills. its just another body part anyway.

11. Kaya nga hydrant (root word hydro) eh kasi tubig ang laman  ;D
12. sometimes they close and lock the store if there is no available employee for the shift
13. syempre kabastusan na iyon pero marami na nagsusuot ng see-through shirts  ;D

14. ANONG PRODUCT NG MCDO NIREREPRESENT NI GRIMACE?
15. Ano napapanaginipan ng mga bulag?
16. If alternative/novelty songs are mainstream these days, would it still be right to call them alternative/novelty songs?
17. bakit ang tao pag naaanghangan or naiinitan, pinapaypayan yung bibig gamit kamay, wala naman epek yun di ba?

18. bakit ang tao pag naiinitan sasabihin pa "ang init!" e obvious naman  ;D
19. bakit ang tao pag nakakain ng sili sasabihin pa "ang anghang!" e obvious naman  ;D
20. bakit pag iningles mo ang salita na, "paki-patay ang ilaw" ay hinde kill the light?  ;D

14. they are mascots. they do not supposedly represent a product. just because merong hamburglar, feeling ng mga tao, may product na.
15. kung ano man ang napapanaginipan natin. hindi naman din lahat born blind.
16. yes, definitely
17. ang tawag dun OA.

18. they are exclaiming that it is hot. probably it is a form getting confirmation from other people, as it can be relative ang init/ginaw.
19. again, its just an exclamation of their feeling. may mga tao naman na kayang kumain ng sili at hindi naaanghangan.
20. it is literally translating it. dumb people do it that way. you translate based on context.
just like what the supreme court does. they interpret the law based on the intent and context.

^^ napaka-seryoso naman ng sagot.... kakatakot na tuloy mag-post...
