dodo birds

they're the direct descendants of the dodo birds. i swear to god, they are! they even have the dumb-look down to pat! During the first day with them, i kept seeing the dodo birds and their three watermelons! (think ICE AGE movie) On the second day, i knew i was unfair to the ice age dodo birds, this present day bunch was way worse!

they're plain stupid....and unlike the extinct bird, they were not amusing.

****

on "emulsifiers can dissolve epidermal lipids"

(we had patiently explained that "dissolve" merely connotes "binding" to the skin lipid barrier)

dodo birds: "so, when we use products with emulsifiers, our skin will dissolve?"

INAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so we had to patiently (but i was rolling my eyes all the while) go thru the explanation again...for the nth time!

dodo birds: e kasi sabi "dissolve" e!

i was about to leave out of sheer frustration when one alpha dodo bird spoke up, "E PAG SINABI BANG NA-DISSOLVE ANG ISANG SALES DISTRICT, NATUTUNAW BA ANG MGA MED REPS SA DISTRICT NA YUN?!?!?!"

amen.

i do not wish to recall the other DUH! questions and comments, i do not wish to have my first bout with hypertension.

disclaimer:

i am not the smartest nor the most articulate person this side of manila. in fact, i know that there are a lot of things i have yet to learn.

but i can think.

those dodo birds cant.
