Most 
pinoys have completely ruined the correct usage of “po” and “opo“
Example:
“Hello po” (TRANSLATION: hello)
“Dito na po me” (TRANSLATION: im here already)
“San na po you” (TRANSLATION: Where you at)
“Musta po” (TRANSLATION:how are you)
whaaaat the FUCK is that??
~~And now for the longer, more boring explanation.~~
there is nothing bad about using “po” and “opo” but tremendously desecrating it is totally un cool. Personally, I don’t care too much if you use the word “po” and “opo” to constantly feel-cute or whatthe-fuck- just dont use it infront of me you lametarded (lol). I think the best way to use po and opo is when you are talking to someone like 10 years older than you what do you think?
what sucks even more is when people keeps on repeating it like
“ano po yun po ” (TRANSLATION: what is it again )
That, my friend , is one of my biggest pet peeve.
plus i believe stupid-hypocrite-christian-fundamentalist should be shot. and lastly all bus-cab-drivers whew!
So tell me what is your biggest pet peeve? =p
P.S.
(Yes that’s right folks, I’d finally ran out of people to scrutinize and this is the stupidest post EVER. I can actually care less, but I figured I’d take a small thing and turn it into a rant.because I might explode in anger. ) lol

Well, I have taken quite a close look on your website and I must say that I find it extraordinarily interesting. You can be sure that I will come back pretty soon.

Oh, yea. Most of the time I get the feeling that people use it for “pa-cute” purposes. Gah.

I say, it all came to past because of the text generation way back in 2k where cellphones are dominating the “masses”. Spelling for this texters gone uberly bad. I even found notes on their notebook in which they use “text talk”… ekkk!
So, even texting/sms I make it a habit to type “full words”. ‘Coz suprisingly, little by little I got infected by this “virus”. lol
Some simple spelling I tend to forgot….
And I’ve seen almost in all forums/blogs, pinoy type in text-talk.

Thank God none of my friends do that. Or else I’ll fucking toss them away. But yeah, I guess they’re(I mean the stooopid people who do that) just trying to make pa-cute. Bullshit! Lol.
My pet peeve? I have lots. But let me write down some of them.
1. People who use SMS language. I warn my friends to never send me messages like, “Where na you?” or something. I’m sure you know what I mean.
2. Couples who publicly display their affections. Or maybe it’s just me being single. Lol.
3. When my brother rummages through my personal stuff, then borrows it without my knowledge.
4. Like you, I also believe that stupid-hypocrite-christian-fundamentalist should be shot. But I say, they should be decapitated.
5. Surly cabbies. You should read my rantings about Metro Manila cabbies and their ill-tempered nature.
6. Grouchy saleslady of shops and stores.
7. Politicians.
I think I have to end it here. Lol. Dude, I like your blog! Mind if we exchange links? Thanks.

Oh! I finally found somewhere I can appropriately post my pet peeve.
I almost lose it when people use “text lingo” in written comms AND using the letter “u” instead of “o”… like: uu, sinu, kau, san na u? … you know what I mean. I dislike reading it in text messages, and I hate it reading it online. If you can type, I don’t see any reason why you can’t type those words properly!
