Don't laugh but...

I just discovered that Maxi savings had an increase in minimum ADB from PHP50k to 2m. ๐Ÿคฏโ‰๏ธ

But wait, that's not all. The increase happened in 2021 during crazier times. How nice, BPI. And... how the heck did I miss that?! ๐Ÿ˜ณ

BPI never informed me. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ Otherwise I'd have closed my account there. Looking through my statements, I don't see any penalty fees for having a balance way below the new min ADB.

So I guess I'm fine, eh? ๐Ÿค”

Just want to point out as well that this is NOT NORMAL practice... even in the .

I hardly see people doing that.
Because.
We're not supposed to do that.

It's only done by a few bad-mannered and oblivious folks. A rare sight in all the decades I've shopped at supermarkets and convenience stores.

What the heck do they mean are "a few meters wide"?! It's not even 1 meter wide! ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

"... saddened by the MMDA's idea of zeroing in on bike lanes which only take up a few meters wide ..."

Looks like a minecraft character, eh? ๐Ÿ˜… Pixelated for privacy reasons.

Nice to see that an ๐Ÿ›ดgot into the mall, and the owner not irresponsibly riding it indoors.

Wish I could that with my . ๐Ÿšฒ I bet ya they won't let me. I already asked. Long time ago. Though with the way we roll here in it's more like a luck of the draw. Depends on the staff stationed at the entrance, if they even know the rules. In some cases there's no rule, they just say no. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Strange... I just got [missed] calls from unknowns -- 1 apparently a landline in Norte or Sur, the second a landline in , and the third is a cellphone number.

The first 2 calls yesterday Saturday, I missed. The third that called today Sunday, I deliberately did not answer.

Weekend.
Not expecting any call.
No way that it's the bank.
And no one I know in Ilocos.

Bogus SIM Registration

A week after the deadline for card registration, they catch a scammy with all their spammy SIMs and phones.

Haaaay... ๐Ÿ™„

You can think of it that way:
if it were safer,
more people would ride .

Or you could say,
we need more more mooooore people on bikes!
So much more that they can't take us for granted anymore.
And then things will finally change for the better.
More than just band-aid solutions.

Hope that things get better. ๐Ÿ™
Or accept it and live with it. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ
Change will happen anyway.
Gotta have faith. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Yup. The fool was whining that the authorities should* stop/apprehend violators daily* [so that he won't do it].


Kamote
(n) ๐Ÿ 


(adj) stupid
(v) doing poorly [intellectually]
(n) a driver with no regard for the rules of the road

In American times here in the , when a student did poorly the teacher would say "You better go home and plant kamote." It was mean. And it stuck.

Now the slang is commonly used to refer to bad drivers. ๐Ÿšฒ๐Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿš™๐Ÿš

See, now that's a proper-sized bike rack. Even your can be locked to it. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘ Not saying you should, but you could if you wanted to.

There should bike rack standards* that can accommodate most* 2-wheel designs/sizes. Clearly we don't have that here. ๐Ÿ˜•

The bus lane used to be where the bike lane is. Good thing they moved it away... on most* parts of EDSA.
