You know when a song gets stuck in your head and you just have to share it with everyone, just so it’ll leave you and dump on someone else? (Do you want to be my someone else?)
Brave3, one of the most awesome contributors around, shared the following music video with me, which was shared with him by Ksmail, the proclaimed Youtube King. It’s… well, let’s just say it’s somewhat relevant if you listen to the chorus:
Confused? Yeah…that’s not English. That’s a shout out to all my Filipino peeps…out there in the land of WikiAnswers.
What up, Filipinos!? Thanks for stoppin’ by and keeping me company!
Did you know that there’s a whole WikiAnswers category for questions in Tagalog!? Yeah there is! Not only is it there…but it’s one of the fastest growing categories we’ve got. It makes me proud.
So proud. My boss came in the other day and asked how my Tagalog was…he was wondering if I wanted to help supervise and edit some of the questions that had come in recently. Unfortunately, I’m not much help; my Tagalog is pretty rusty…but I make a MEAN batch of adobo and I’ve been known to kick off my shoes for a good old fashioned tinikling every now and then.
I got curious and started checking out the questions about the Philippines…the questions that are in English so I can read them too. I found out some really interesting stuff I never knew about the place where 1/2 my roots lie.
Let’s talk about camels. Why, you undoubtedly ask?
First of all, yes, Camels is a category on WikiAnswers and yes, you should definitely check it out, because if you are a zoo keeper, desert wanderer or biologist, it will just plain knock your socks off, and if you are not one of those, then it will crack you up, like so:
Second of all, camels totally creep me out. They always look high and they always seem to be laughing at you. “Ya, mon - you wanna ride wit me?”
Third of all, I needed an excuse to post this photo I have entitled, “The Scream II: Girl and Camel.” I won’t give away which one of them is the Answers Corp employee… yet.
Planning a trip to Japan? I’d highly suggest getting your questions answered first. Take a peek at the Japan category.
Also, take a peek at this video, which is reason #273 why I’m never stepping foot on a Japanese subway at rush hour (or maybe ever because there’s a chance this video was taken at 2 pm or 4 am).
I don’t know. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry or never ever go to Japan. I’m so confused. It’s so cold. Mommy.

A 24-hour time line of questions you wish you could ask out loud…
Ever thought about how many questions you ask yourself in a typical day? “Who came up with the word ‘shampoo’?” “How do you get deodorant stains off your t-shirt?” “Do blonds still have more fun?”
Well, I decided to keep track of these pearls of wisdom I wish I had for a full 24 hours (sans the hours I’m asleep - duh). And voila! A day in the life… presented via query time line
The one and only remaining Cuban who can’t Salsa. This Miami native now resides in New York City (under the watchful eye of Answers.com) and can be found mowing down men, women and children just for a seat on the subway. On occasion Denise is caught telling the same story twice (or three, or four) times, and has the ability to recite any line from any romantic comedy – no matter how cheesy.
Her interests include graphic design (she can Photoshop your socks off – seriously, like they were never there), wedding planning, and the oh-so-savory Starbucks Latte.

We’re here to proudly proclaim that there is no such thing as a stupid answer. Or is that a stupid question?
