Satire: Philippines Named ‘Most Stupid Country to Elect a 20-Year OJT as a Senator’

May15th

Leave a Comment Written by donvy

From sowhatsnews.wordpress.com: MANILA, Philippines — “The overwhelming victory of a self-professed on-the-job trainee-cum-Senator in the recently held election in the Philippines cemented the country’s fate.” They added, “Falling for the diversionary tactics of an inexperienced candidate that saw her steer the issue away from her credibility to her skin complexion to make herself look like the underdog; gave us no choice but to bestow such title to a country, who was destined for greatness before the elections.”

Time Magazine: I am about to do what old people have done throughout history: call those younger than me lazy, entitled, selfish and shallow. But I have studies! I have statistics! I have quotes from respected academics! Unlike my parents, my grandparents and my great-grandparents, I have proof.

Here’s the cold, hard data: The incidence of narcissistic personality disorder is nearly three times as high for people in their 20s as for the generation that’s now 65 or older, according to the National Institutes of Health; 58% more college students scored higher on a narcissism scale in…

Free Photography Software

From popphoto.com: Free Photography Software: A Guide

There are certain programs that are pervasive in the photography world. For the most part, they’re the standard because they’re extremely good at what they do. But, there’s a a lot of photogrpahy software out there, and some of it is totally free. Apart from iPhoto (which you’ve probably already heard of), there are apps aimed at everyone from people who never take their cameras off auto, all the way up to those who only trust to shoot in RAW, and everywhere in between. In no particular order, these are some of our favorites.

The Philippines has a way of spoiling one’s ego. Of course as a child you’re unaware of what your society looks like, and you think most people have the same standing as the ones you know. But as soon as you come of age and get the whole picture, you realize that you’re on top of a heap.
