FMU TASK#1: IMAGINATION POST

Hi guys! So this will be your first task! All you have to do is to create something like the photos in this post. Get a photo of yourself holding something where your imagination of a better Philippines is written. Okidoks?

One post is equivalent to one point. Meaning to say, if 30 of your groupmates will be posting one, then your group will be able to garner 30 points. Sooo, you better start posting for the points, and for a better Philippines of course! Great?

imagine meeting a handsome young man who’s seen as a player and sleeps around a lot and you notice a scar along his arm and ask where he got it. he just look down at his feet and said “i used to be a soldier in world war one”. He’s been sleeping around and hooking up so much cause he’s been trying to find his soulmate for years but hasn’t yet.

Imagine going on your first date with someone and you really hit it off and then the next day you notice a grey hair and call them on the phone excitedly screaming and they both just sit on the phone hysterically crying and laughing.

Imagine sitting in silence with your partner and having them say out of the blue “i feel so old when im around you… but… in a good way” and thats the moment you know that they love you.

imagine having a dog thats 18 in human years and it starts to get gray patches of fur because they loves you so much.

imagine noticing you look older and freaking out but then stopping and getting super confused because “im not dating anyone right now…. which of my friends is my soulmate… WHICH ONE IS IT!?!?!?” and then they hopelessly date everyone they know in order to find out which one it fucking was. it was the pizza delivery guy the whole time. they went on 27 dates that all ended in confusion and heartbreak and it was the god damn pizza delivery guy from a month ago the whole fucking time. 

imagine someone dating their partner for 5 years and then having an affair. only after the affair do they start aging.

imagine nuns who start to age after they ceremoniously “marry god”

imagine people getting surgeries to look older cause they dont want people to think theyre alone.

imagine having parents who wont let you date anyone but they start to notice you aging and then you have to have a terrifying “surprise im gay and i have a boyfriend haha oops” conversation

imagine seeing couples with teenage kids and the couple both looks 18.

Are there no 90° angles in your kitchen? Have we got the answer for you…

S’mores Maker

It pinches your s’more together. That is all.

Nana Saver

Is one banana too much, but zero is not enough? With the Nana Saver, you can eat one half and save the other for when you come back to reality you delusional muppet.

Cucumber Saver

Are those pesky cucumbers not fitting in your Nana Saver? You need this, too.

Quesadilla Maker

Do you not have a stove or a microwave or an oven? Then you probably want your only appliance to be a glorified cheese melter.

Pickle Picker

If only there were already a 4-pronged tool to pull pickles out of a jar…if only…

Noodle Splatter Shield

Even for Japan this is pretty ridiculous.

Butter Spreader

Spreading butter has always been a way too unpredictable part of my life.

Table Saw

“I’d rather be in the garage than the kitchen. Hardy har har!”

Motorized Ice Cream Cone

Stick your tongue out and let the batteries do the work. Available for the low, low price of your soul.

And yeah. Technically, not having to pay for all the medical treatments and short term preventatives and whatever else to counter for your body being less equipped is cheaper.

But you know what’s interesting about being poor? When you’re poor you can’t afford to focus on how much cheaper something is in the LONG TERM.

When you’re poor, you don’t have enough money each month to pay for the more expensive thing just because it’s less likely to incur costs in the future. While most poor people KNOW that if they could pay $200 on something for a better quality version (compared to the $100 version that will need replacing in another few months), the fact is they don’t have $200. They have $100. And that’s all. And saving money long term is really difficult because only ever having enough money at one time to be able to consider short term benefits means that a lot of the time, we get hit with unexpected expenses when we draw the short stick on one of those compromises.

So yeah. If people had the money to splurge on healthy foods, their bodies would be healthier. Not necessarily thinner, because fat and unhealthy are no more synonyms than thin and healthy are, but bodies would probably be a little better off.
