Wyld, my dear...you are doing a good deed to all your Kuyas and Ates in this thread..para naman sila maging IN  at hindi ma stuck sa twilight zone

Here goes...

 

Jologs, may be used alternatively w/ skwaking - bakya, skwater

 

Chuva - no particular meaning, its like a word you use when you dont have any other word to use (eg..."maganda ang mga shoe-ses chuva sa store na yan")

 

Tienes - refer to Chuva (eg... "mga pambobola tienes ng boylet na yan"); may be used alternatively w/ chenelyn

 

Anik-anik - ano ano (eg... yung mga kung anik anik na gamit dun sa labas...)

 

Most of these words are gayspeak

[walangiba]

A few posts back, Pareng JT mentioned double knit. Pag suot mo 'to, member ka ng SDK (Samahang Double Knit). Yung material ng pants, yun din yung sa collar ng shirt. Munsingwear Gland Slam, with the penguin logo. Then with matching car na Lambda or Corona Macho Machine. And Aramis cologne. At syempre, may clutch bag!

 

Papable pa kaya ngayon yun???

Pinagbawal na yang double knit kasi highly fammable material! :boo: Mas bagay ang double knit with flares sa shirt sa "stayknit (?)" (a local shirt with a flying swan logo in the pocket). Platform shoes ng chancellor or glenmore.

 

Btw, retro fashion is making it's comeback This is very evident in golf. White pants, white shoes, white belt, tight shirt and nylon mesh back baseball cap. Some players wear pink, yellow, red, light blue pants. Well if I make a million bucks playing golf, I would wear the same fashion, too.

 

E bakit ang micro mini at hotpants d na nauso uli?

yeah but most material in short shorts these days is either cotton twill or denim... wala na ba yung leather or leatherette (o baka pagkamalan kang sofa!!!! :boo: )

[flyingdutchman]

Uhmmm. the NikNik shirt? Tama ba?

Red leatherette hotpants with matching vest. Floral blouse made of flimsy material with flowing electric pleated sleeves ending in thick cuffs and covered buttons. Above-the-knee wet look boots. Remember the Lioness hair-do? Just like the mane of Simba in Lion King. (It's ironic, cos a lioness doesn't have a mane.)

 

Hala bira, the Aldeguer sisters!! :boo:

Welcome to the 70's thread.. If you are above 40's you will enjoy this forum.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

sorry for the VERY LATE reply.. yes am above 40 and enjoying this forum....

[augustmoon]

Good morning... Uma-Arriba na naman ang mga 70's people...may Naalala na naman (my gues is.. nakatalog na kasi ng husto )....na mapagkakatuwaan.

 

I remember that in my first Coed party (Gr.7) I wore an Orange POPCORN blouse with butterflies sleeves and a KATCHA pair of Elephant Pants na tinadtad ng Violet Butterfly Patches (ganyan ka fasionable and nanay ko )..I also had on a pair of CLOGS 2 sizes big for me. I don't know how I managed to dance "The Drop" to the tune of "Smoke on the Water"" without those clogs flying in the air

 

In my first HS Soiree with our Brother class (Ateneo 1-C) also wore those electric pleated Fuschia Double knit skirt with a thin black belt topped with a Chartreuse and Pink Polka dotted blouse, and Black strappy clogs (my size na) this time rockin to Barry White and Stevie Wonder....

 

As you can surmise by now, My Mom who was my STYLIST then.. was heavy into the COLOR WHEEL.. that or, maybe she was in a self-induced mild altering trip.. I still can't forgive her for that atrocious attires. You should have seen her THEN

[augustmoon]

And the biggest FAUX PAS... (next only to Liberty's Flowing Floral ) was wearing a wrap around long sleeve dress with PUCCI-esque prints ( as usual with the whole spectrum of colors) lugging an envelope bag. In a HS party at age 14 !!!!.. Little Matrona ang dating.

 

Quirky...Syano Queen. .my soul sisters..I know you are lurking around in the thread...llaughing your heads off, and enjoying the memories...you have to give your share to this thread...after all you were in the same parties...looking equally horrific as I did. If you don't Masi will not invite you to the next EB

[Magaling]

Platform shoes ng chancellor or glenmore. 

 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Hinahanap mo ba

Ang tunay na toga?

Glenmore ang tatak ng sapatos

Sa bawat hakbang ay walang paltos

Yan ang Glenmore shoes . . .

 

Refrain:

Glenmore! Glenmore!

Matibay, may class at may uri

Glenmore! Glenmore!

Yan ang Glenmore shoes . . .

 

Ayos! :thumbsupsmiley:

siguro ngayon, you'll say that.... "little matrona".... pero during that time, the guys will be ogling and saying "ganda nung chick o'....."

[Wyld]

I think it was my fifth birthday or so when my sister made me wear a pair of orange double knit pants (the ones with diagonal texture) and one of those flowery, fluffy blouses thats gathered at the neck and wrists... cant describe it exactly but im sure you can imagine...

 

And I was a chubby little girl so ... I looked like a little throw pillow wearing that outfit... :boo:

[masi]

In any ordinary day, I cannot imagine the fashion augustmoon, wyld and liberty have been enumerating in their posts. It's a good thing, we are just a few weeks to Holloween and somehow I can visualize how this fashion would fall right into the occasion.

 

Magaling, great posting the jingle of Glenmore shoes!!!! I was proud of wearing my Glenmore platforms to school. Made me walk tall, literally!!!!

 

Oo, nga naman, if you belong to the 70s and are simply lurking in this thread, better come out and share you're version of this era!!! Then strut your stuff at the next eb.

[Wyld]

Speaking of Halloween... I so wanna go as a 70s girl ... I want to wear one of those psychedelic print mini dresses and knee high boots ... but the weather might be too cold for that sort of outfit.

 

We shall see. :boo:

[augustmoon]

siguro ngayon, you'll say that.... "little matrona".... pero during that time, the guys will be ogling and saying "ganda nung chick o'....."

Bonjing....more like...SCORCHING !!!! as in Flames!!! Flames!!! May sunog... dahil sa DAMI ng KULAY

 

You should join us in our next EB...and so goes for the others who are in the thread now... Sorry Wyld, unless I win the Lotto..you'll have to there in spirit lang... sabagay, ikaw lang ang mascot doon. :*

[Wyld]

I knowwww... but the minute I get home... Sama ako ha?

 

Payag ako maging mascot! :boo: :*

"Bato" also used to refer to a muscular person.

"Syoke" applied more to an effeminate person than to a gay one, while "gay" used to mean happy.

As for the "ngatnat" finger, we actually used to say "Ngatngatin mo!" which you never hear these days. Gamit ngayon ng mga tao, "Up yours."

 

I remember how, one time, my friends and I were having cigarettes and beer at a place that we called Penthouse. Suddenly, one of my friends shouted "Parak!" We all ran for cover. It was while we were hiding that I asked, "Anong parak?" Natawa na lang sila. Kung hindi ko alam, bakit ako tumakbo?

 

There was also the term "square" which referred to fight without weapons. Walang restbackan din. In school, pagnagkakainitan na, sasabihin, "Ano, mamaya?" Back in high school, those fights were spectacles. They often happened after class...and often with an audience.
