I Lack the Wit.

I lack the wit to write about the things that transpired during the long weekend. Maybe it's because of the fact that almost everyone's been talking and yeah, writing about it that i find it totally pointless to embark on another "discussion" about who's to blame in the turmoil that we, Filipinos are in.

It's far too humiliating. And annoying. And disgusting. And uhmm, the list goes on and on.

There really is no one to blame. Just blame our far too-wide streets for being too conducive to really big rallies. Blame Fort Bonifacio for being so open to the media and for being tolerant enough to allow the aggravated Marines to ask a few questions about their Commandant issues. I repeat, blame Fort Bonifacio, not the officers, just the place for being too accessible. Blame Malacanang for being so attention-grabbing that people tend to crave for just a glimpse of how amazing it is to get that much attention. Blame the Palace for being grandiose. It's a simple Bitch Factor.

People write about the possibility of Martial Law as if they even bothered to read how Martial Law can come to place... blame the law for being a boring read. Blame the camera for not shooting at the right angle which could've made GMA look more convincing when she said, "everything's under control."

Go on. Let's start another finger-pointing festival. I think we should come up with a Finger-pointing Holiday. Let's dress our fingers up and indulge in a day of extravagant finger-pointing or maybe a night, think LuvaPalooza. We can call the event, "Finger-lickin'" and make KFC sponsor it, or "Dalirian" or uhmm, "Turo-turo". Perfect, "Turo-turo" will not only embody our food but also our political culture. Maybe we can make another record, the biggest number of people engaging in a finger-pointing event ever! Although we've been doing it for the longest time, at least we can rechannel it into something positive. That'll be the best therapy for us. After all, Olympics are made to prevent wars right? Maybe, just maybe, this festival will exhaust us.
