hello hello Pinoys (or even the non-Pinoys who are updated on our local happenings) :) GMA has already been served an arrest warrant; Erap gleefully commenting about the whole thing and saying he's better than GMA... it got me thinking. what if you're a convicted felon (just hypothetical people, knock on wood and all that, lol), who among our news making solons--alive or otherwise--would you choose to share your cell with? me i'd hate it if it would be GMA, i wont have peace with that annoying voice of hers :)) how bout you guys and girls?

if only be granted, i would choose all of them. erap - would be my best pal. gma - would be my genie who would give everything i need and want. marcos - would be my great soldier and probably would be the brain of the group and ampatuans - would be our terminators. me - should be the boss!

Well, that is, if only be granted. hehe Nobody would even choose to be in cell, I guess. And most especially, nobody would let himself near these people especially the ampatuans. I don't even want to be butchered!!! hehe

This thread instantly put a smile on my face. I think Ampatuans' cell is decent enough, I've heard it is air-conditioned with lots of amenities hehe. But still I won't choose him though his cell is tempting. I would be scared to be with him, I think being with him won't even allow me to sleep since I will be worried for my life. I think I will choose Erap, I have to admit that he has a sense of humor and sharing a cell with him won't be boring. I will just need to be careful not to be his girl hehe.

Yes I just like the Ampatuans' cell cause it would be very comfortable and I bet it doesn't look or feel like a cell except for the jail bars. But to be with them, I think it will feels like your life is really in danger. I think I can write a book full of Erap's jokes and make money if I'm with him. I could be famous for all we know :)

glad to know that this thread made someone smile :3 and your comment regarding erap made me laugh. had this image of him running after you around the entire cell. :)) with the ampatuans, i guess its a case of wanting their cell but without them no?

oh i wish i would never have the honor to be a cellmate of anyone of them. hehe :P no way will i let myself be in jail. but for the purpose of answering your question. i guess i would want to be with Marcos instead. someone with a great mind like his should be great to be talking too. i might learn a lot from him. I am scared of the ampatuans. i feel they are really devils that walk among people. Erap would be a pleasant cellmate i guess, he must really be a funny person. GMA - hmmm no way. i think i would just be annoyed by her presence, so no thanks!

I would rather choose Marcos because among all of the President he have done a lot for our country and made this country number 1 in Asia Before by which the dollar to peso rate is 1 Piso equals 1 $.

yes he did great things, that's why its such a shame that he also committed great transgressions and wrongdoings. ive always wondered what the Philippines could have been like if he did not let his hunger for power and money (the latter might be more Imelda though hehe) get the best of him

I will definitely choose Erap. He may not to a too smart fellow but he is the friendliest and laid back so we can share stories and talk for hours. GMA? No way. She's a witch and she was known to talk down on people. I dont think I can live with that kind of person. Marcos? He will probably try to be a wiseass and will order somebody to hurt me just to prove that he was better than me. You know, the power hungry type of guy, even when he was out of luck. Ampatuan? Forget about it. This man is a bonafide killer so its horrible even thinking about that possibility.

hehe erap. reminds me of his words, his better than GMA cause his case was just about jueteng and it was for the people unlike GMA who cheated during the elections. his is definitely a different but entertaining? way of thinking :P GMA as a witch? how i agree. seeing her ugly mug and hearing her grating voice would tempt me to violence marcos...i just remembered we share the same birthday...i wonder if that would make him look more kindly to me and exempt me from ermmm the more unpleasant side of him

Nice question. For me, I'd choose Marcos. Spending years with him as cell mates maybe would also make me intelligent like him. :D

oooh good point. though i wonder if it was me and we'd end up having never ending debates on his principles and acts as a public servant/leader.

I would rather ask, very patiently and respectfully , to the prison authorities to be moved away from any one of them. I think if I was sentenced for a crime, it would be enough to shock me back into sanity. Having anyone of those p[people will probably drive me insane. That will make me move into a medical asylum. Not only by the personalities themselves but the people who will visit them and insist of their beliefs will have the effect of having the worst punishment yet in my life.

Very well put:-) i like how you pointed out that its punishment enough to be convicted and being locked up with the lot of them would cause additional complications. But what if they offer to compensate you to be their cellmate, how would you react? :-o

I don't want a cell mate at all, if I have too it doesn't matter since they are all unknown by me and I will keep it that way. I will find a way to get rid of them.

i like the implication of how blood-thirsty you can be ;) so how would you get rid of them? btw, the ones i mentioned are high-ranking Philippine officials who are facing and/or faced charges from electoral sabotage to mass killings.

None of the above... I will try my very best not to be with them... :) Because if they will be convicted i dont know where they will bring... :)

They are a bunch of unpredictable people with power no? And since nobody here wants to even touch the subject of being near these characters, i know wonder what could happen if they were in the same cell, a room even :-P
