wiLLmaH As for "GOAT," it's a bit of a head-scratcher. So, being called a GOAT is indeed a badge of honor now.

wiLLmaH It's fascinating how language evolves, especially in the digital age. While "idk" might be a familiar one, there's a whole alphabet soup of expressions that I need to decode.. haha

wiLLmaH The mix of languages and cultures must have created a truly magical atmosphere. And how heartwarming to hear someone call out "Kababayan" – finding a bit of home in a foreign land is always special. Cheers to joyful encounters and the magic of the season!
