Woman’s Hilarious Resume to Apply as Mayor Vico Sotto’s Girlfriend Goes Viral

When Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto joked that he’s accepting applications for a girlfriend since he doesn’t have one, a lot of ladies joked that they would apply. Who couldn’t resist a challenge, considering that this handsome young man readily admitted he hasn’t had a girlfriend since birth (NGSB)!

Ang gusto ko ho sana, hindi naman tayo magiging choosy no, gusto ko sana ‘yung matalino, may itsura naman, wala namang special talaga. More than matalino, gusto ka sana same wavelength kami lalo na sa topic ng governance,” Vico said when asked what his ‘qualifications’ might be for a girlfriend.

Sana naman before 40. Sa ngayon ang masasabi ko lang diyan, Diyos na po ang bahala. Tumatanggap naman ako ng aplikante.

But everyone knows that the young mayor is just joking and would probably be too busy with his many responsibilities to even have time for a girlfriend! Of course, that did not stop a number of ladies from ‘submitting’ their applications in hopes that the young mayor would actually take notice.

One of these ‘applications’ was so creative and hilarious that it has since gained more than 35k reactions and 16k shares from amused netizens.

On her Facebook account, Hettianne Gamel her resume as she tries to apply as the mayor’s girlfriend. Her name on the resume? Hetty Spaghetti! LOL.

Netizens had a good laugh over her creative antics in the resume, joking about everything from her current address (sa bahay namin) and her future address (sa bahay mo) to ‘impressive’ qualifications, such as being a public servant (because her FB posts are public) and her work experience as YouTube ‘Mega Viewer’. LOL.

In allusion to the mayor’s “may itsura naman” requirement, she listed “may itsura” in her qualifications, adding, “may mata, ilong at bibig naman ako; pimples din”.

Netizens really had a good laugh at her motto in life, a joke that refers to Vico being a politician.

Politiko ka ba? Boto kasi parents ko sayo ih!

Do you think she’ll make it to the shortlist of candidates? We certainly hope so! LOL.

Why Make a Creative Resume?

In a world where everyone else often follows a template, it would be great to make a creative resume that would stand out from all the other applications. After all, there could be a hundred of applicants for a single position – your goal, after all, is to get noticed, right?

Xian Gaza Fulfills Bucket List to Walk around Shibuya with Sibuyas (Onions)

Xian Gaza fulfills bucket list of walking around Shibuya in Tokyo, Japan, with sibuyas (onions) – and it’s hilarious (if you get the joke, that is).

Would you dare do this, too?

Xian Gaza Fulfills Bucket List in Shibuya

If you’re a fan of anime (hand-drawn or computer-generated animation that originates from Japan), then you might be familiar with Shibuya.

Also called Shibuya City, is a special ward of Tokyo, Japan, and is known for being the heart of the country’s modern culture.

It has one of the world’s busiest railway stations – and there are lots and lots of busy people walking in the streets and crossing the intersections.

It isn’t surprising that the place is a favorite setting in anime.

But while Shibuya literally means “harsh valley” in Japanese, it spells so closely to “sibuyas” (onions) if you’re a Filipino.

Knowing that Pinoys can be witty and so hilarious, some might joke about getting a “sibuyas” from Shibuya or something to that effect.

Still, even if some Pinoys might joke about it, it’s just something “mababaw” (shallow) that might not even make other people laugh.

For Xian Gaza, however, he just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to fulfill his “bucket list” when he visited the place.

He shared a video of how he bought the pack of “sibuyas” from a store and walked around Shibuya while holding it out on his hand.

He captioned the video, “BUCKETLIST: Itawid Ang Sibuyas Sa Shibuya” – that’s with a check mark to show that he was able to tick it off his list.

The goal is to become the first ever Filipino citizen na nagtawid ng sibuyas sa Shibuya with proper documentation. Congrats sa akin,” jokingly adding that he’s congratulating himself for the achievement.

Here’s the video:

What’s a Bucket List?

It’s a list of achievements or experiences that a person hopes to accomplish or have during their lifetime, before their “kick the bucket” (an idiomatic expression about passing on).

Seller Goes Viral for “Angry” Reviews to Prove Products’ Durability

A seller goes viral for “angry” reviews to prove his products’ durability – and customers love it! He’s also gaining fame as a content creator in the process because of his unique content. Win-win situation, yes?

Seller Goes Viral for Unique Marketing Strategy

But you’d have to buy the products being endorsed by Jomar Yee, a TikToker who’s making a name for himself with “angry” reviews that prove these products’ durability.

In his product reviews, Jomar is known to smack on the item, slam it on the floor, smash it on the wall, or even stomp on it repeatedly.

While reviewing a bag product, he “angrily” pulls the zipper back and forth.

To prove that a basin is durable, he even stomped on it several times, pushed it back to its original shape, then stomped on it again.

OH BAKA HINDI PADIN KAYO MANIWALA!? WAG NYO KO GIGILIN JAN!

♬ original sound – Dump ni Jomar Yee – Dump ni Jomar Yee

Reviewing an umbrella meant shaking it back and forth, reminiscent of the strong stormy winds that you might encounter – and the product survived that without breaking.

Many of his videos are now making waves on social media, with lots of netizens praising the product reviews (and the products themselves).

@jomaryeedump_

ANO PANG REVIEW GUSTO NYO NANG MATIGIL KAYO JAN!! GO!

♬ original sound – Dump ni Jomar Yee – Dump ni Jomar Yee

While many netizens are saying that they’re enjoying his videos, some have also bought the products.

Although some were also skeptical and said that these are likely fake reviews and he’d send less quality products just like other online sellers, some of those who actually bought the products commented that these were, indeed, as durable as Jomar had reviewed.

@jomaryeedump_

Replying to @JOC Thrifts OH WAG NYO KONG ANUHIN JAN MAGSIBILE KAYO! GO!

Which of his product reviews did you like best?

Best Marketing Strategies

There are many different wants to market your products – and being unique is something that can truly make you stand out from the competition. That’s exactly what Jomar was able to achieve.

While there are already so many sellers using TikTok as a platform to expand their customer base, it seems that he’s the first to conduct reviews in this manner.

It wasn’t surprising that the first day was marred with glitches – and so many users complained that they were unable to register their SIM cards no matter how many times they tried.

The telcos were forced to announce that they were having technical glitches, urging their subscribers to be patient as they try their best to improve their systems to accommodate the registrations.

Others had different ways to announce their successful registration, but most followed a similar format to that of supportive family members or friends supposedly congratulating them for their success.

It’s reminiscent of tarpaulins for board exam passers – but most of those who posted these photo cards and pseudo tarpaulins created it themselves. LOL.

At least, the board passer whose mom made her create her own tarpaulin won’t feel too bad because others are also doing it (but for completely hilarious reasons).

So, have you posted your own version to congratulate yourself for successfully registering your SIM card?
