'May tao pala.' Tapos iwas...

...which means that they know how not to lean unto the car of others, but do not effing bother if nobody's there.

Umiral ang ka-kupalan. Story of the Filipino street mentality.

Oh, and dunno if the poor, uneducated attribute applies to all these.

I once was waiting inside my parked car (sundo mode) when a group of decent-looking employees from a well-known company stopped behind to talk while waiting for a cab. Normally you would ignore, but they were hanging too close to the car to not notice. Still, one puts them off the mind.

But then, a little later, ayan na... guy starts adjusting his backpack, hitting the zippers to the body. Heard it, miffed, but stayed silent. A little later, girl then starting sitting on the bumper. When I noticed it....

'OH HELL, NO.'

Started the car, startled and made the girl jump. Right on time as the person I was waiting for came out after a minute or two. Funny thing is, magkakilala pala sila-sila. The group was still looking at us when we drove away.

Dami pang ibang cases na ganyan (same company, different group) na nasubaybayan ko. Not as if they were not educated enough or something. Bottomline, I think it all boils down to the general mentality of people na WALANG PAKI sa mga bagay-bagay basta't hindi nila pagmamay-ari.
