Dear Tard,
I'm not quite sure if you're the same prick I ranted against a year ago, but I believe it is so. Since that's apparently the case, I guess you're a year older now. But from what I see, you've become a year dumber.
I thought we've already made you quit the internet? Apparently you just took a rest to recover your shattered e-go before going back to your increasing of post count ways. While I do realize that your posts are now somewhat related to the topic, your post still does no help whatsoever. Your reply was worthy of three facepalms.
Also, why the heck bother replying to that post in the first place? The thread was started nine months ago without any reply. That means the thread is dead like a log, and your post is the useless inedible poisonous mushroom growing out of my metaphor.
Tards like you are the reason why those below the age of seventeen, maybe sixteen, should be banned from the internet.
tl;dr: GTFO the internet... again.
Sincerely,
Refined forum member,

On Chinese Blogger Comment Spammers
Dear Spammer,
While I appreciate the click, I certainly do not invite any spam to my food blog or any of my other blogs.
Firstly, I do not understand Chinese. And while Google translates your comments to messages of good health and happiness, I cannot be sure of that. Secondly, I'm too computer literate to overlook those many periods you put after your comment to have hyperlinks that lead to random Chinese websites. It just further infuriates me that you try to do it stealthily, yet stupidly.
Don't use my blog to increase your link counts. Please go find another blog to bother. Or better yet, just die.
tl;dr: Die.
Sincerely,
Irritated Blogger,
Inggo

On YouTube's New Layout and Features
Dear YouTube,
Your new "improved accessibility" layout actually hinders quite a lot for me. I can't see the user's latest videos without clicking something, and when I do click it, it pans the video down. You also force an autoplay feature from the module I clicked the video from even though I don't want to watch the next video in the said module; I have to manually turn it off every time I watch a video, and I see no option to permanently turn it off. Also, there are now a lot of shitty parameters in the URL that videos have become very hard to link.
While I do like the like/dislike change from the five star rating, you still haven't fixed a lot of issues in the site. In fact, you made it a lot worse. Fix the current problems before adding more potential ones.
tl;dr: I want the old look back.
Sincerely,

On Artificial Birth Control
Dear Reader,
Artificial birth control is a major issue, especially for our country and what’s happening in it today. Alarmed by the rate of sexually transmitted diseases, especially AIDS, the Department of Health has decided to distribute condoms, perhaps the most popular method of artificial birth control, to those who require it. Also, for the past few years, the proposed Reproductive Health bill, which promotes information and access to natural family planning and artificial birth control, is still under debate.
Since our country is a mostly Catholic one with conservative religious beliefs to uphold, the Church is in constant objection to government proposals concerning artificial birth control, calling for resignation of officials who promote the usage of artificial birth control. Due to fear of the Church, some government policies revolve in abolishing artificial birth control, such as the Executive Order No. 003 in 2002 at Manila. This battle between the Church’s anti-artificial birth control movements and government attempts to promote it supports my stand that it is a major concern especially for our country.
While the Church has a noble cause to promote abstinence, sometimes it is not an option, especially for the uneducated and the poor. I am not saying that the views of the Church are wrong, it’s just impractical nowadays. I cannot and will not prove that satisfying human sexual urges is immoral, as I am not in the position to do so. However, I believe that these urges are natural, as it is an organism's function to reproduce. Sometimes, it is not viable to reproduce at all, but the urges are still there. In addition, humans have always been relying in tools to help them. Artificial birth control is such a tool to satisfy sexual urge for those who are unable to cope with abstinence and do not want to procreate, which, I believe, is a more practical approach. Unplanned and unwanted pregnancies might result in suffering for the parents and more to the child. It might also lead to another issue, which I wouldn't want to tackle, that is abortion.
A third issue that relates to artificial birth control is population control. I am not here to prove, nor do I believe I’m in the position to show that the population of our country is due to lack of access to artificial birth control. Also, I cannot prove that the population of our country is directly linked to poverty. But I do believe that if there is actually promotion of use of artificial birth control, it would certainly affect our alarming population rate. I also believe that the alarming population is linked to poverty, as shown by some of the news articles I have read. Without birth control, there are more mouths to feed, which makes the poor even poorer. This is another reason to stand for artificial birth control.
Personally, since my religious views are primarily non-Catholic, I see nothing wrong with artificial birth control. Without using it, unplanned and unprepared births causes harm, not only to the parents, but also, and perhaps more, to the child. It can also be used to prevent spread of sexually-transmitted disease, which has become epidemic in our country. Finally, it can also be used as a tool to control the alarming population rate, and in turn, help alleviate poverty.
In the end, I guess one’s stand on the issue depends much on their religion and fear from it. I find it sad that the advantages of artificial birth control are overshadowed by the impracticality of the actions of the said religions.
tl;dr: I am all for the promotion and use of artificial birth control.
Sincerely,
Pro-Artificial Birth Control,

This is meant to be an assignment for Natsci 2, which asks for my stand on this issue. While this is addressed to whoever reads this, it doesn't necessarily concern you. Also, this is written as such in order to preserve the style I have been using for this blog.

On Windows Live Messenger Advertisements
Dear Microsoft,
I present you exhibit A, a screenshot taken from your up-to-date Windows Live Messenger:
I would like to point out the advertisement at the bottom.
The correct spelling of Filipino is the way I have written it. It is not "Philippino". This goes for both the language and the people of the Philippines using the English language. I find it silly and irritating that you ask your Filipino users if they're proud of their citizenship when the spelling of the term is simply wrong.
Correct this mistake as it might actually lead to some of my foolish countrymen believing that this is the right way of spelling their own race.
tl;dr: It's not "Philippino", it's Filipino.
Sincerely,
Grammar and Spelling Nazi,
Inggo
