Not much Christmas spirit nowadays?

[NiCe2KnowU]

Dito sa village namin bawal pa magpaputok
Ipinagbabawal ng HOA. Pwede kwitis, lusis, roman candle, mga pailaw.

Pero ako, matigas ang ulo. Pla-pla at super lolo sinisindihan ko. Maya- maya, ayan na mga sekyu, pinagsasabihan ns ako, he he.....
.

Dto hindi naman bawal kaso mahihiya ka sa mga kapitbahay mo ni isa kasi wala nagpapaputok

Yung tito ko binibigyan kami dati ng 5star
Galing bulacan, 5 star tignan pero pag
pumutok 10x ang lakas. Walang sinabi ang
Goodbye philippines, saan kaya area may ganun dito hehe

I really miss those days when firecrackers weren't discouraged yet. Palakasan at pagandahan ng paputok among neighbors. Hehe. We had a neighbor na new year's was really a spectacle. Inaabangan namin yun kanila. They really spend on their fireworks.

christmas lives in the hearts of men and women. if it dies there, no gift, no rejoicing, no revelry can ever do much about it.

Firecrackers no sense, ang maganda fireworks. New year should be like that, sa Disney sa wedding wala naman tayo nakikita nagpapaputok ng triangle at kwitis kasi it's just no sense

Puro fireworks na nga ngayon. Di ko malaman kung saan ako titingin. I like fire crackers better, it's more fun Disney is sugar and spice and everything nice, loud and rough fun is enjoyable too

Priest Punished For Riding Hoverboard During Midnight Mass - NBC News

[screws]

not sure if youre being sarcastic but i dont see anything wrong here. this religion survived because it evolves with time but nowadays its too narrow minded, overly conservative. dayum!!

[anonemus]

^nope, I'm not being sarcastic. The priest forgot the meaning of solemnity in a Mass

How would you feel if a priest speaks to a funeral for your loved one riding that TOY?

[Ry_Tower]

I believe that Mass is scared and should be solemn. What the priest did is like a gimmick. It is right that his superiors reprimanded him. Just my 2 cents.

politics aside, but Duterte has already imposed a firecraker ban in Davao City for more than ten years now (if im not mistaken). The ban on firecrackers spread across neighboring cities and provinces of Davao. I'm pretty sure it's a nationwide firecracker ban if he becomes the President.

Are you implying that a mass is a funeral? Because you know in a way it is because let me put it lightly, a mass is a memorial service. You know those things some people do to commemorate their deceased love ones every year. Notice something with it? As years gone by, it becomes less of a cry fest and more of a celebration of life. Isn't this whats going on every Sunday Mass now?

I dont know why are you in Church on Sundays but I am there not to act all solemn and sad. I am also not there to judge on people too. You see a Priest riding a hover board but still delivering a wonderful mass as some sort of blasphemy to your God. Its just so outrageous. Ive been to some churches where the Priest dance with the choir. Ive heard so many homilies where the priest throw in some jokes. You can hear hearthy chuckles echoing the church. Did you ever encounter this before? Did you ever think this is blasphemous? Probably not. Becuase you probably laugh with the crowd too. Hey! Nothing wrong right? Whats wrong with chuckling during a mass.

No to fire crackers. Kawawa aso namin hindi alam saan tatago. The loud noise causes a lot of stress on the pets and lingers on for days.

Christmas is making kids / children very happy. Most of the time, that's "giving gifts". Nandiyan pa rin, marami lang pagbabago.
Siyempre, lumalaki rin mga bata. 'yung mga grade shool kids, ngayon, mga teenagers na. Yung mga putol- putol na kanta nilang tag- lish, ngayon kumpleto na at di na rin tag- lish. Konti na rin lang sila. 'Yung dating maraming grupo ng makukulit na pabalik- balik kung mangaroling, kokonti na lang. But then, kumonti man sila, lumaki naman ang ibibigay mo, di na puwede mga coins :bwahaha:

Yung mga gifts sa ilalim ng Chrismas Tree, marami pa rin. 'Yun nga lang, wala na 'yung mga "bulky gifts/boxes" like yung mga cheapo plastic large cars / trucks or doll houses / dolls na hirap na hirap akong bilhin sa Divisoria or Baclaran. Ngayon, mga electronic gadgets na, butas talaga bulsa ng mga ninong at ninang kapag ganito. Others, chocolate bars na lang, siyempre may nakaipit na konting "barya". 'Yung mga large and heavy boxes around the Christmas Tree, karamihan galing na sa relatives / friends namin ni misis. Nandiyan pa rin 'yung mga batang "Ninong, gusto ko 'yung nasa malaking box". 'pag alam kong mabigat, sabihin ko lang sa kanya "ok, if you can lift / carry it, it's yours ". Sasabihin na naman ni misis and girlfriends niya: "ang Ninong nang- aasar na naman"! Hahaha, I think mga 7- 10 years pa at hindi ko na sila puwedeng biruin ng ganito.

Happy New Year Tsikoteers! :cheer3:

"mass" means different things to different people. yes to some it some kind of funeral. remember christ DIED for you (even if you didn't ask him to LOL). then that little white wafer becomes his body. yeah it's crazy

the Catholic Church is an absolute monarchy.
what the Boss says, goes.
period.

and i suppose, all religions are like this.

but i did hear, that the hoverboard event took place after the Mass.
facts... facts... accuracy... what really happened..? now where is that video when you need it..?

In the restaurant we are in at the ATC... Ang lakas ng Christmas spirit... Maraming tao at panay ang mga orders... Everyone's in a festive mood...
