don't quote me.

caveat: the fun is lost if you don't know the nuances of Filipino.
from an e-mail i sent june 5, 2004:

for posterity and future reference (not that you really care).
presenting a list of fabulous samples of sam's communication skills:

1. "am i kasya?"
2. "was it butas?" / "is it nabutas?" (i'm not sure which, i was tipsy when i said this...)
3. "fucken putik on my legs, man."
4. "sa'n tayo magt-talk-talk?" (talk-talk, like usap usap, y'know?)
5. "you might have bitbited it." (i still maintain that "bitbited it" is shorter than "taken it with you")
6. "tawag the landline."

hopefully the list ends there. yeah, i'm bored. so?

...nope, the list doesn't end there. *sighs* i recently added

7. "i don't want to dikit it there."
