In This Entry Ade Talks About Marriage. And Stuff
If you're new here, you may get your daily dose of retard by subscribing to my RSS feed!
I spent the weekend in internet-less rural Laguna. You know, those places where we have to hunt wild boars for food and offer burnt sacrifices to Maria Makiling to prevent the dragon from eating the sun, hence delaying the end of the world and giving the tribes more time to engage in orgies and human sacrifices.
Not Laguna
But that’s not the entire point of the article. You see, my grandparents live in that place. But that still is not my point.
You see, my aunt got married two months ago and since me and my aunt have a very small age gap (see what I did there, tita?) she finally got relieved of the pressure of getting married and stuff. And guess who the grandfolks set their eyes on next.
Clue: His name starts with “A” and ends with “de Magnaye”.
So cue clueless Ade, walking into the nipa hut (yes, they live in a nipa hut. I kid not. Well, the nipa hut’s got airconditioning. So whatev.), greeting his grandfolks like he always does. Then his grandpa, sensing a moment of weakness, drops the bomb:
“Say, Ade, when are you getting married?”
You do not ask that to a single 25-year old who has no plans of getting married just yet because 90% of the women he meets treat him as a gay best friend only straight while the remaining 10% treat him as a sexual offender.
But I realized that my grandfolks just want to see a great grandchild. You know, while they’re healthy and all. So now the pressure of giving the grandfolks a great grandchild is on. But then my track record with women kinda speaks against me. Just so you know, I need somebody who I can hoodwink into marriage mainly without resorting to drugs, violence or hypnosis.
I can go for the mail-order bride, but there’s this slight problem of me being broke and being totally unable to afford such extravagant worldly pleasures. Besides, I’m no (dreamy- no, wait) Russian Mafia Guy to even consider going for a mail-order bride. Same goes for paid companionship (Okay, prostitutes. What.), although they would probably be better in the sack and infect me with herpes and various exotic diseases. Or I can probably go for the ditz. Heck, it’ll be perfect. I can make her believe I’m some rich oil tycoon and she’d probably eat it up automatically. But thinking about it, a discussion on whether Paris Hilton’s latest album is this generation’s equivalent of The Beatles’ “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” doesn’t seem to appeal to me.
I think I’m rather fucked.
Also, on the subject of marriage, I think I can make a wonderful husband. I can go home every night drunk and all, while my loving wife takes off my shoes and makes me a turkey sammich and all. No, wait. I mean I am very loving and I’d do all the laundry and dish washing for her while she gambles away our life savings via mah jong with her noisy kumares while they (noisily) talk about the latest Piolo Pascual soap opera or the latest showbiz sex scandal.
Again. I’m fucked.
And I just realized that I should probably stop writing more because I’m lessening my chances with every single paragraph.
This is how I impress women
So, guys, what do you think?

You could always join speed dating events and find your match in less than an hour.

Chicks dig the writerly type, Ade. Just bring a notepad at starbucks and you’ll be sure to inspire a few “oohs” from the crowd even if you’re not writing anything.

In the inimitable words of my four-year-old: “You funny, Ade”

Or you can always pull a “Who’s The Boss?” a-la Tony Danza i.e. find a job as a housekeeper and save yourself seven more years before eventually marrying Judith Light.

Just don’t be “torpe” when the “right” girl passes you by. You
might lose an opportunity because of “ka-torpehan”. Some
girls are too shy to make the first move.
[Reply]
how about auctioning yourself off? :p
[Reply]
Why even think about marriage? Half of marriages end in divorce; the other half end in death. I don’t think either is a great option.

You lying son of a whatev. Women don’t think you’re the gay-bestfriend-only-straight (the 90% you mention) and you’re not a sex-offender either (the other 10% you mention). You’re that wonderful guy described in that infamous E-heads song:
(Wait for it….)
TORPEdo. hahahahaha
You’re not alone Ade =(
[Reply]
What the hell, Ade ignored my SUGGESTIONS?!
Keep doing that and I’ll start jinxing you. See this here voodoo doll who’s wearing bra and panties? That’s you, Ade, and soon I’m going to throw that in a boiling pot with the lid shut so you could experience all that ALONE mwahaha.
[Reply]
I think I can help. Just come with me to the City Hall and you’ll be a married man in no time!
[Reply]
There ought to be rent-a-baby places for these things.
[Reply]
Getting married at 25 is too early, me thinks. Also, LOL @ JayveeF’s comment.

*snorts* I couldn’t help but laugh at that one. Why the pressure? You’re ONLY 25! You need time for a relationship and all that crap before actually marrying someone.
Why is it that it appears to be as hard as you make it seem to be, unless you’re the world’s greatest exaggerator =P
