Facebook, twitter, blogs and day-to day conversations discussed and gossiped about the mistake of Christopher Lao as his car floats in the middle of a flooded street.
I became curious so I also watched the video. Sure it was funny at first but when people make a fan page or even Youtube videos about it (see video below), don't you think it has gone overboard?
I did my research and it turns out Christopher Lao is a UP law summa cum laude. He is even going to take his bar exam this year and a bar bet too. That fact alone made me realize that I could never have the right to make fun of the guy and even felt sorry for laughing at it. The guy just made a mistake. Let's all move on before we get the last laugh right?
Come to think of it. I've never imagine a joke like this would be as viral as scandals. Does this mean that Filipinos care a lot about humility or intelligence?
