The "BAKIT" List

We are all familiar with the western term "Bucket List". This Blog will take this "Bucket List" to a different level, the Pinoy style aptly called the "BAKIT" List. This "BAKIT" List is a compilation of everyday questions that seemingly challenge our sanity.  Filipinos love to play with words, it’s part of our lives.
Let us fill the “BAKIT” List through email to merlinagp@gmail.com by sharing your everyday questions that start with BAKIT and its description. Please include also a short  answer to the question. Happy questioning and smart answering!!!

"BAKIT" List #27
"WHY" List #27

BAKIT mas maigi ng magbiro sa taong lasing keysa sa bagong gising?
Why is it better to throw jokes or make fun of someone drunk, but never to someone who has just awakened?


Brief Description 
Isa ito sa mga nakakatuwang kasabihan na madalas nating marinig sa mga usap-usapang Pinoy.
This is one of the funny quotes mostly heard in Filipino conversations.


My Smart Answer
Kasi kapag nagbiro ka sa taong lasing, tutulugan ka lang n’ya. Pero kapag biniro mo ang bagong gising eh baka matulog ka nang hindi oras (dahil nasapak ka n’ya sa mukha).
Because when you joke on someone who’s drunk, he would just sleep on you. But when you make fun of someone who just woke up, you might end up sleeping (because you got hit on the face).
