Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What inspired your username?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I was just throwing up names around. Dir En Grey had a song called "Decadence" and they were kind of "rebels" in that they weren't your usual jrock/jpop band.

A color and a birthstone.

When I was making my Lemmy username, I was reminded of Oshi No Ko and KonoSuba so I went with the name "Aqua". As for the "synonym" part, I saw a Red Skull meme saying that the word "synonym" has no synonym - now I know there is actually a synonym for "synonym" (that's poecilonym)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

not 100% synonym

almost a synonym

sabi sa Wiktionary

Don't tell me it's kaka midnight snack ng Pancit Canton?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yes, but not the pre-packaged bullshit I advertised here on Lemmy. I literally made a pancit canton from scratch, and ofc I bought fresh pancit at mini-palengke nearby. lol

Oh wait, my username is not PancitCanton.

I literally made a pancit canton from scratch

I presume that's from flour, water and other stuff? Damn, that's hardcore! Also, probably really delicious since it's freshly made (to cook).

I opened my fridge, at may natitira pa akong produces sa loob. Kaya napabili ako ng pancit kahapon.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hahahaha! Nice! I think that's the strength of pancit (canton, bihon, miki, sotanghon, all of them!) It's very easy to just take whatever's in your fridge and freestyle it.
