Food that everyone else likes but you just can't

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 25 Sep

Lemme start, I really can't take the taste of offal/innards. Here in the Philippines, we have a lot of food that makes use of cow and pig innards and I feel like I'm not really "Filipino" because I don't really like eating them....

I know where my gamer genes came from

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 21 Sep

You know, my mom, Luzviminda, has always been quite the gamer at heart. Back when I was in 4th grade, our weekends were all about laughter and Scrabble tiles scattered across the living room floor. Her face would light up with...

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 21 Sep

Let me kickstart this topic with my take on one of the more disheartening decisions the Academy has ever done... I've always felt that Ellen Burstyn deserved to win the Oscar over Julia Roberts. THERE. I've said it. Ellen's...

I'm 33 and sometimes, I compare my life with the life of people my age. Sometimes, I get envious of their achievements and how well they've planned out their lives. I know it's not good to compare yourself with others because you...

Weird food combinations

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 27 Aug 19

I like pouring my hot coffee on my rice and eat the wet rice alongside local fare like dried fish and corned beef. People find it weird, but in my province it's a breakfast staple. How about you guys, what's your weird food...

Has anyone ever tried Surströmming? What's it like?

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 27 Aug 19

Basically, it's Swedish fermented herring and people have been setting it up as a challenge. I've seen a few videos in Youtube and they're hilarious. I don't think it's that bad if it's prepared well, right? Or is it really hard...

Tenderloin vs Rib Eye

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 25 Aug 19

What's the difference and which do you prefer among these steak cuts? Personally, I love ribeye steak. It should be done medium rare to preserve the tenderness and the juicy taste. Ooohhh man. I'm craving for steak.

They're making a Breaking Bad Movie!

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 25 Aug 19

This is one of my favorite shows EVER and I'm so glad to hear that they're making a follow-up movie for it. I just hope they don't ruin the show's great legacy but I trust Vince Gilligan. He knows what he's doing.

You spend 1/3 of your life IN BED
