Weird Proteus

I thought weird na to:

- wearing high-heeled shoe on your left foot and slippers on the other?

 - wearing eyeglasses upside down

 - using feminine wash as shampoo and have a bouncy shiny hair

 - clipping your hair with paper clip

 - eating mais from one plate and drinking milk with crushed ice

 - calling your boss, “bok” or ‘pare”

 - taking a picture of yourself using your cellphone camera just to check if your pimple got bigger.

  -  eating rice with spaghetti or pancit as ulam?

Look below.

Now that’s weird. I was looking for something bizarre for this blog when I saw this.

Diba parang he has two faces.

It’s actually a condition or a disease called “Proteus Syndrome”. It “causes skin overgrowth and atypical bone development, often accompanied by tumors over half the body” (Wikipedia).

Proteus is a Greek God who can transform himself into different shapes.

Thus, "protean"  is someone flexible or versatile.

X, clipping your hair with paper clip while at the office is no longer considered weird in this generation. . . it only means : i am serious at work and busy, go away unless you have food or something to give. . . wehehe! what's weird is sprinkling avocado with splenda (instead of wala-pa-ring-tatalo-sa-alaska! -- condensed milk or gatas na malapot, as we call it).  baka kasi iba na naman ang sosi-term ni Y.  ha,ha! -- Z
