Hypocrite

I don't know if this happened to you...you were invited into a birthday celebration and suddenly someone told you about "death" in another family. That feels awful especially because that suddenly triggers some kind of sadness especially if you know who died and feel sorry to the other family. We only get together once a year and if happened that some stories, news, events get accumulated and talked about in one sitting I don't think there's no such thing whether it's appropriate to open up such stories. Every event, occasion is necessary to open up things especially when you are there already in a place where people are grouped together instead of leaving of an important  story for next day.

Then there's one invited guest who is older from among the group and blurted, "is that a good time to ask that?" (  I greeted the birthday celebrant, we all sang happy birthday song when the candle was blown, we cheered happy birthday greetings again. The birthday celebrant is my sister's husband so he is part of my family) What I asked? I asked them if they will attend the Filipino party and I'm not done with my next line and that old man blurted, "is that a good time to ask that?" Darn, he must be very old! Now I know why some people doesn't like that old Filipino guy. Is he a Filipino???? Maybe not!! I'm not even asking him. I don't care if that old man attends the party or not! The question is not for him.

It's not a good idea? Please stop the "formality" because you are not in the palace! You are not a royal family where certain formalities and ties are strictly observed. That's all I can say. Is that old, old man a royalty?

I would like to hear something like that of a comment when maybe if I'm in that old man's house but he is just an invited guest. Was he really a guest? Or is he a door crasher? Oh, maybe he is drunk. That maybe is the reason why he is acting bad. I could only think that "he is not a Filipino anymore."
Oh well some Filipinos when they stepped on another country and became Canadians or Americans they felt like they are noveu riche. Paburgis! Right! What a hypocrite!
