PBB

by MrsPartyGirl



As in Pinoy Big Briber.

~~~

I've never been a fan of the Big Brother show per se, but I do know that viewers basically have the power to evict housemates for violations of house rules, or for at least being weak players.

If only it were that easy in real life.

What happens if its the Big Sister - the one who solemnly swore to faithfully and conscientiously fulfill her duties as Big Sister of the PBB house, to preserve and defend its House Rules, execute its laws, do justice to every housemate, and consecrate herself to the service of the housemates and the viewers - abuses her position of power and mocks the trust given to her by the very people she promised to be stewards of?

Common sense dictates that Big Sister be sent packing. Hopefully, whoever would replace her may gentrify the House to reclaim its integrity. (*crossed fingers*)

I guess, if we can pick up a cellphone to call or text to vote for people running something as mundane as a TV show, it shouldn't be as hard to give the same effort in scrutinizing the people who run (or in this case 'ruin') our beloved country.

About This Weblog

    Previously, a blog about how life has treated us after our last duel on the piste. Now, unmasked, we reveal ourselves as political scientists first, fencers second.

    Our country is the Philippines - where the University that brought us together stands. Though we'd rather pretend that eveything is fine, it is not.

    We've laid down our swords and sharpened our words. Now we raise our mightier pens and say: en garde.

    For Pinas. Our guts, your glory.
