Elementary – Why Doesn’t She Love Me? Loser Ka Eh.

3 05 2010


We all get down because of that elusive and slippery four-letter word we call “love.” Why doesn’t he care, why doesn’t she love me, what’s wrong with me? These are the questions we are usually faced with. And, sadly, the answers are often too hard to swallow. Listen in as a heartbroken gent receives the ugly truth from his friend. Jovitt and Mickey handle the teaching, while Razi comes in with his two cents on love and the world of emo.

A: Bakit hindi niya ako mahal?
B: Loser ka eh.
A: Bakit ka ganyan?
B: Emo ka eh.

A: Why doesn’t she love me?
B: Coz you’re a loser.
A: Why are you like that?
B: Coz you’re emo.
