“Fallacy (pl. fallacies): In logical arguments, fallacies are either formal or informal. Because the validity of a deductive argument depends on its form, a formal fallacy is a deductive argument that has an invalid form, whereas an informal fallacy is any other invalid mode of reasoning whose flaw is not in the form of the argument.”

Chunky Monkey is a member of my favourite brainless forum, ManilaTonight. This person isn’t new though. And for reasons that I will not enumerate here, I suspect Chunky Monkey to be an alter-ego of another idiot whom I have written about (*ehem* Negative Numbers *ehem*). But enough of introductions because who this person really is isn’t important. It’s what’s posted by this person in “public” that is worthy of rememberance.

But briefly, this encounter stemmed from a thead called Biblical Fallacies, where people have only enumerated inconsistencies (and generally ideas in bad taste) in some passages in the Bible and went on to flaming each other. I thought it would be nice to remind those people what fallacies actually are and how many of the posts made in the thread exemplify fallacies of one kind or another— the old Argumentum ad Hominem, is of course, very popular.

I never thought that losing something like your company ID might be a headache in the process. You need to submit a formal statement stating the loss of the said thing. And to submit an AFFIDAVIT of LOSS is definitely a requirement. It was too unfortunate that our company is issuing new proximity IDs and we need to surrender our old ones. I have nothing to do but to secure an AFFIDAVIT of LOSS and pay Php 300 for the replacement. Learning that I need to, I researched online for samples of such affidavit and what other requirements it might need. Thanks to the help of my office mates who gave me an idea on how to make one.

There’s this thing about raised expectations. I remember when I spent a year anticipating Spider-Man 3, following every single bit of news about it. My expectations were raised to an all-time high when watched it. Then I got Peter Parker dancing in the streets. Boo.

Which brings us to The Dark Knight. I’ve been so stoked by Batman Begins that I was looking for a sequel already the moment I saw it. So imagine me expecting a movie for three years. The goddamn expectations alone are giving me a nosebleed.

Basically, I was expecting too much of The Dark Knight that I was afraid that it was going to suck. More »

Matagal tagal din nu’ng huling sumulat sa akin sa akin si Em-em. Kaya heto muli na namang nagpadala ng e-mail, well, like as usual rants na naman. This time hindi naman na work-related, tungkol naman ito sa kontrabida at kinaayawan niyang pinsan, si Gardo. Basahin ang liham…

Tell me if you haven’t felt this when starting a new relationship after a series of failed ones: your past failures, whether real or imagined, will always come back to haunt you. Granted, the new girlfriend will most definitely be not be like my exes (Psychotic stalker-ish otaku ex? Psuedo-fashionista with absolutely no fashion sense at all and with an IQ of a turnip? Come on), but still, everyone comes from a string of failed relationships, and we all can’t help but blame ourselves from time to time.

Lemme ask you guys, who here hasn’t been through a shitty relationship before? We all get the urge to start a new one, but in the back of our head, we’d all have fears and insecurities every now and then. More »

A few weeks back Christophe was telling me how he loved eating mangoes: that whenever he visited the Philippines he’d take every chance to have some, and then when he returned to France he’d bring several boxes of it as well, both for him and his wife. So I asked him, “Why bring so many boxes of it? Aren’t mangoes sold in France? Why don’t you just buy them there?” Of course, in my mind I thought it was probably cheaper for him to buy them here than in his country where the markup could be tenfold, so he might as well seize the opportunity to get more for less. His response was similarly within those lines, plus something more.

Three excellent Slides were published over at SlideShare. It talks about hot to market to the Gen Y, what is Social Media, and how to do marketing the Web 2.0 way.

Come click this link and start the slides.

So let me get this straight. WordCamp Philippines? September 6, 2008? In College of St. Benilde? Pffft. This’ll be a big pile of fail. I mean PHAIL.

 
Come on, why would I be excited that Wordpress rockstar Matt Mullenweg himself is coming? Or that i.PH, the single most awesomest free blogging platform in the history of awesome blogging platforms is sponsoring? Should I even care that my friends Ria, Andrew and Blogie (who are part of Mindanao Bloggers) are organizing it?

Frankly, I couldn’t care less. More »

Let me open this blog entry by posting a message to the oil conglomerates and those who constantly raise prices of basic commodities like Mini Stop Kariman and those things I buy off street urchins (I don’t know what those things are, but I tend to float three feet off the ground whenever I sniff that stuff):

Also, fuck you.

Now that rant’s safely out of the way, let me tell you what’s been bothering me lately. You see, it seems that every single thing has been becoming too expensive, too fast. Just the other day, bus fare jumped up a whopping three pesos. Okay, that didn’t sound too much, but for miserly old me, it’s a fortune. More »

Me and a close friend went to see MAMA MIA after we dined for our team mates’ treat for pizzas! We’ve long been waiting for this movie. The trailer shows that it’s a very entertaining movie but still clueless on what it has to offer. Fortunately, it’s our last day of work and we ought to give ourselves some eye-candies after a busy week! All I can say for the movie as a whole, very IMPRESSIVE! And Meryl Streep (Donna), is one diva. She deserves another OSCAR for this!

Maybe it’s just me, but is the decade I grew in really that far off? I know I get bummed off a bit when I see the music videos I like being played on VH1 or the songs I used to listen to being played on Retro Wednesdays or something. It kind of gives me affirmation that I’m some old geezer because you know, the kids are listening to awfully cool music nowadays and that I’m stuck listening to old geezer stuff. While telling the kids to turn down that damn noise they call music. While I wave my cane wildly around. You call that music? Why in my day, we had to play with instruments. Blindfolded! And our pants’ waistlines were raised all the way up to our armpits. The wedgies were horrible, but damn, we looked snappy. More »

Do you have your dream job? How about a dream company to work with? Have you thought that after graduating from college, you’ll land a high-paying job? Will you fight or commit a crime just to be in your desired position? How far are your limits to conquer the career you ever wanted? Certainly, many would love to work at GOOGLE Company!

This is why they say Google was voted as the company most wanted to be worked for

We already knew that working for Google had certain advantages, but, believe me, this giant of the search motor takes the welfare of its employees seriously … as shown by this decompression (stress) capsule that is impermeable to sound and light …

Won’t win me any awards but they’re not too bad, I think. Some of these drawings are from my sketchbooks when I was still in college, a time when I was more inclined to do stuff without expecting to get paid for it. Others are from my notebooks, which is why you’ll notice handwriting peering through the paper from the pages beneath it. Scanner’s dead and gone so I took pictures using my webcam instead, thus explaining the sh*tty quality. Click the pics to view the full images.
