My personal observations, there are MUCH more motorbikes now than any time before and there are MUCH more cars, the number of pedicabs is constant... Many drivers with brand new cars/bikes have absolutly no knowlege how to drive but that's the Philippines, get used to that, what I have a hard time with, are the fuckwits that believe they can drive here like they did in their country of origine... Mainly Aussies and Amis, that think they need to use oversized tires and other "show off" parts to make them self "stick" out... Best you adapt to the local habit of removing all unnessecary parts and integrate...
Ahhh, although it was a stretch I'm glad to see that you were able to work in your daily swipe at Americans and threw in the ozzies for good measure. Nice touch! Just for that, next time I go to Hypermart I'm going to ask them to double bag everything in plastic.
My view is bank buying on 'credit' has assisted in the car explosion, as well as those paying double for buying a bike on credit, until the repo monster takes it away.
slang or more properly called colloquial expressions do surely abound in all languages but english has more than its fair share.. especially for women's breasts.. Do not start the list !!..gesssh
