YOU SMELL LIKE POWER
Mom: André kain ka na doon.
Me: Ano meron?
Mom: Liempong may porkchop. Adobong 'di maintindihan.
Me: yum.
Me: Did you just take a picture of Robson taking a picture of something?
Tom: Yeah.
Andrew: Now I'm gonna take a picture of Tom taking a picture of Robson taking a picture of something.
Tim: And I'm gonna stand here and just think you're all nerds.
I have just discovered what might possibly be the best/worst-educational-medieval-ages rap video… ever.
This is my favorite sub-one-minute music video of all time. For reals, son.

Mom: André, just in case I forget - which is very possible - once you get here, everything in London is the other way around. People here drive on the left side of everything, so always look "right" before crossing streets. Unlike Spain and the Philippines you look to the left first. When Me, Sam, and your abuelita were new here we always kept almost-getting-run-over. Heads up lang mi hijo!
Me: Hey, healthcare is free over there, right? THEREFORE I HAVE NO REASON TO WORRY
TERRORISTS WIN

Me: Wala. Nasa labas ako naglalakad sa gitna ng daan.
Mom: Weh.

Jimmy Fallon has got talent. Does rapid-fire impersonations of other comics on America’s Got Talent:
You wouldn’t know it from his gig as Late Show host (it’s kinda middling, for the most part), but man, Jimmy’s crazy talented.
The world’s most useless machine… UPGRADED. Its only function is still to just turn itself off… but now it throws tantrums too.
EPIC: Improv Everywhere does a flash-mob-type musical inside a grocery store. Lulz ensue.
