Random Thoughts Thread

Bakit naging ganito na sa manilatonight. May number of post bago ma access yung ibang thread. Nakakainis been with this forum since 2004. Parang mas masaya yung dating manilatonight.  Hindi na ba si bizman may ari nito?

i’m starting to see you in every night i look out the window and watch the city lights flicker.

…this world is beginning to feel like a smaller place.

throwing on that old dusty jacket you used to adore; i begin my night again.

bringing only with me these thoughts and the memory of your lips,

It’s hard to get old. More questions left unanswered and many things you need to accept. Sakit na rin sa katawan at nakakapagod hahahaha

I was wanted, I felt wanted so I thought it would be different. But I was never loved.

Face card so lethal I want you to rebrand my entire bloodline.

hope always comes before the fall. ensuring you crash and burn for all your worth,

this comedy is not worth the stage it’s set- but it will continue its theatre nonetheless.

Once listened to a podcast episode where the interviewee was one of the top SWs in her state. Hearing her speak so intelligently about her line of work in her delightful voice has probably deterred me from trying out spa theras more than anything, FRs notwithstanding.

haven’t felt this pathetic for a while now; it’s almost refreshing to remember how much i despise these situations.

Downside of being more active on here: the auto-spammers get you more frequently.

Thanks to frequent use in socmed, I got into thinking about the evolution of the word "kiffy". Paano ba umabot sa salitang ito?

All attributable to the Pinoys' penchant for wordplay. Nagmula sa salitang "pekpek", pinaglaruan ang salita, binaligtad, binawasan, dinagdagan at naging "kepyas". Di pa nakuntento, nilaro pa rin ang salitang "kepyas" at naging "kipay". At ayun na nga nagtuloy-tuloy sa wordplay, ang salitang " kipay " naman ay nilaro, inartehan at ginawang "kiffy". Parang mas sosyal pakinggan, more euphemistic, not too offensive with an English touch na. If you noticed, Tagalog words don't use the letter F.  (Pinoy na Pinoy rin, kung familiar ka sa "F and P problem", kung saan yung P nagiging F at yung F nagiging P.)

Nakakatawa lang na ang salitang "puki" ay bihira ginagamit dahil masyadong bulgar at madalas ko na lang naririnig sa mga nagugulat na babae. Ex. 🤯 "Ay puki!" "Puki mo malaki!" 

Random. 😑

Finding a bit of sanity by logging on to MTC does not speak well of my mental health.

I was unreachable all weekend, but I called him as soon as I got home out of courtesy. During our 27-minute conversation, he generously used feeling verbs and adjectives, which made me uncomfortable.

“I missed you.”
“I’m happy you called."
And so on.

Moments like this reinforce the idea in my mind that, after all these years of demonizing avoidants, I might be one myself.

learn to accept you are who you are.

 

even with whatever you think this concept of you being,

[BlessThem]

Sometimes I find myself hoping the connection I feel isn’t just part of the act that the laughs, the warmth, and the moments of closeness are genuine and not just performance. But deep down, I know it’s a carefully crafted illusion, designed to make me feel seen and wanted.

That illusion is really good at her job. It fills a space inside me that craves intimacy, even if it’s temporary and transactional.

In reality, it’s emotional labor wrapped in a business transaction, with a paycheck at the end instead of a hug.
