Who says that its all gloom and rancor in Philippine society nowadays because of our despicable, self-centered and amoral politicians? Here are some authentic Philippine signposts, probably reflecting the peoples age-old capacity to laugh at anything whether in good times or bad times:
Michael "Mike" Tan of Asia Brewery once told me that a restaurant grill in Mandaluyong and Makati was for sale, its name was "TOM CRUZ GRILL." I told him, sorry, Id prefer Nicole Kidman anytime!
MARUYA CAREY BananaramaCue at a menu signboard in Potato Corner kiosk in Greenbelt, Makati.
SYLVESTER SALON sign of a neighborhood barbershop
BREAD PITT name of a bakeshop in Project 6, Quezon City.
NO CROSSING PEDESTRIANS WILL BE APPREHENDED a sign at Philippine Coconut Authority (Philcoa), Quezon City.
NONE ID, NOTHING ENTRY a sign at construction site in Cubao, QC.
NO PARKING THE DRIVEWAY sign at St. Anthony School in Singalong, Manila.
STOP! DONT PARKING sign beside Windsor Inn on Maceda Street, Sampaloc, Manila just across the 7-11 convenience store at Dimasalang Street with its own sign "SORRY FOR INCONVENIENCE."
MONGRILL an eatery in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental.
CURL UP & DYE name of a beauty salon where you can send your foes!
MABUHAY FUNERAL PARLOR funeral parlor in Paco, Manila.
GOTO HAVEN congee eatery in Sta. Mesa, Manila where sinners are presumably off limits.
TAPSI TURBI not the true state of the nation, but real name of an eatery selling Tapa, Sinigang, Turon and Bibingka.
WANTED BOY WAITRESS sign outside Baguio City eatery.
COOKING NG INA MO signboard of a streetside carinderia.
COOKING NG INA MO RIN sign across Cooking ng Ina Mo eatery.
BEFORE PAY, TELL WHERE GET THE ON BEFORE GET THE OFF butchered English signs in some buses which should be corrected or else our impressionable students might no longer qualify for call center jobs!
GOD KNOWS HUDAS NOT PAY sign inside some jeepneys.
My apologies to cigarette smokers, but this is a sign I suggest all establishments should put in their nonsmoking areas: IF WE SEE YOU SMOKE, WE WILL ASSUME YOU ARE ON FIRE AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION.
SLOW MEN AT WORK A sign in a PLDT road construction site. I believe this sign should be posted in all government offices to shame our so-called "public servants" into doing public service for us hapless taxpayers!
When I once saw this sign in front of a road repair construction site with no workers in sight, I almost blew my top in what westerners might describe as "road rage" when I think of the new 10% E-Vat burden all of us have to endure SORRY FOR INCONVENIENT, YOUR TAXES IS WORKING FOR YOU!
