Amazingly,
Angry Birds became the talk of the most ‘netizens’ around the globe. These
characters became a most wanted theme on floats (like that of Panagbenga) as
well on various shops (coffee shops, computer shops and the like) and
furthermore, a perfect choice of presentation among foods and beverages. (You
can agree with me!) It also became a favorite blueprint for most of T-shirt
design (even undies), cups, keychains, bags, ‘bonets’/caps, notebook covers,
pens, wallets, tumblers and many more. The red, yellow, black, white and green
birds has also step out of your personal computers to be a huggable stuff toy
and now out in the market. They actually dominated other items such as
Spongebob, Plants vs. Zombies and any other tooney characters. It speaks for
itself! Angry Birds are definitely on the mainstream!
Everything
on peak has always Pro’s and Con’s, for always. Some might look on the right
and some on the left side. This may sound too comical but according to a news
post on the net, a certain Congressman is in no doubt passing / proposing
a bill in the Lower House, the so-called House Bill 5379 or also known as “ANTI-ANGRY
BIRDS BILL”.
Assertive
enough, the author of the mentioned proposed law is supported by the
authorities from the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) at his part
after this organization also protested against this popular Rovio game. PETA
cited, “We are influencing our children into thinking that killing pigs and
destroying their homes is ok. It is not!”. Another PETA member stressed out,
“If we think that demolishing the shanties around the Metro is inhumane and
against human rights, what do you think these green pigs feel when a bird
destroys their fortresses. Those swine has feelings and rights, too!”
This
congressman got this Anti-Angry Birds bill idea when he went on a
Christmas shopping for gifts in Divisoria. An eyewitness imparted that this
congressman got irritated when he saw that there are lots of Angry Bird items
in the place. This congressman also confirmed that it was the ‘mall incident’
that made him proposed this bill.
He stressed
that everywhere he looked, there are many Angry Bird items to cite. The problem
that this would create is the so-called ‘product diversity’ to which, according
also to the congressman, the DTI haven’t yet monitored. He also has an immense
hope of passing this bill. Let’s see how it could make noise in Batasan. (An
eyebrow raiser that is!)
Sound
stressful but awakening? Don’t be too affected of what you’ve just read. This
might sound silly but this issue was sometime a trend on the net. Several
months ago, this was posted from a satirical website named “So What’s News”
which aims to ‘inject humor into everyday news and to provide relief to readers
who have grown exhausted with mainstream news organization’s partisan, biased
and depressing way of presenting the news’. As its tagline goes, ‘News that
won’t make you depressed to read news’. It maybe describes itself. And to give
you additional background about this website, remember the recent controversial
edited photos of DPWH officials standing on rocky ground and it seems
that they were looking for a lost cat. This website was also responsible for
this. Funny as it gets, but it’s true!
