• A not so "Maoy" Interview with Twitter's BoyMaoy


      Meredith Grey of Grey's Anatomy also has a word for it: "Blah". Like, I feel so "blah". It's a word that might have no meaning to some but for those who can relate, it speaks volumes. Blah.

      The Cebuano/ Visayan dialect also has an associative term for "blah". For us, it is referred to as "maoy". It might be connected to drinking but we also feel maoy in the simplest of experiences. But yeah, beer drinking has the most maoy of experiences you can get.


      In the social world of Twitter, we find someone who posts all "Maoy" tweets. His growing followers of a mere 4,000 plus are those that can relate to his maoy tweets. It's funny, experiential and sometimes hits you or your friends right where you're supposed to be hit.

      BoyMaoy has caught our attention because simply, his tweets clearly says what we want to say but can't unless intoxicated. Well, BoyMaoy's tweets doesn't need for you to have a few cases of beer for some fun and realistic tweets (doesn't mean you can't have a drink or two, either). You just need a stronger internet connection and a Twitter account. Here are some of his tweets (note: mostly in the Visayan vernacular. Please hit us a message if you want translation):

      + How to make a person stay? Kanang dili jud ka biyaan? Uhm, ipapilit sa imong kilid ug mighty bond.

      +I am not lazy. Wala pa lang sa akong potential akong motivation.

      +Kung dili man gani si Adele imong ex, she will never find someone like you.

      +Gikapoy naman kog sigeg Facebook uy! Log out didto kaw kay gikapoy na sad ang facebook sa imong nawng.

      +Kung pwede pa lang ma order ang uyab, dili nata tanan mag maoy

      +Nag-inom ko ug beer while watching The Notebook. Nag sige na nuon kog katawa when I was supposed to cry.

      +Biyaan gani ang mga gwapa, unsa na kaha ang mga tanga?

      +“Call center ra?” Inday, ayaw pag hinilas kay dili lalim ang istorya ug English.

      +Within six sets of beer, dili na mamakak ang imong balimbing nga uyab.

      +Lami ihampak sa semento ang mga tao nga way kuntento.

      +Wrong send pa kuno. Nagpatagad ra diay to.

      +Hi, pwede favor? Palihug ko ug like.. sa akong kasingkasing. Tagaan tika ug link.

      +Uso na kaayo karon ang photoshoots karon. Hala bisag self-portrait, considered nasad as photoshoot these days.


      +Tinuod jud diay ang Friday the 13th kay wa man mu gana ang rocket sa North Korea.

      +Ingon sa sign kay “Do not leave your valuables unattended”. Mao bitaw gikuha tika.

      +Pagkabata, mangihi sa kama. Karon, mangihi sa kalsada.

      +Delete pa kuno sa number, ka memorize diay to.

      +Ug pa pillion ka? Chicks or barkada? Lisud sa?

      +Ug sugoon gani, mas hinay pa sa bao. Pero ug kalibangon gani, mura ug ninja padung sa CR.

      +Aw single pa diay ka? Hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahaha! Ako sad.

      +Wala nakoy uyab? It’s okay. Wala nakoy internet? IT’S NOT OKAY!

      +The one who laughs last is the slowest. The first? Pinakahugaw ug utok!

      +Drinking beer is great. Pero mas nindot if you open another one.

        Hey mods, "Boy Maoy, you already!" is too much of a direct translation. "ikaw na gyud" in English could either be "you're the man" or "you're the best". "You already!" doesn't really mean anything.

        Hi lazaro4ever, thanks for stressing that out. It was actually meant as a joke. "You already" has been a current conyo joke. We do know about the correct translation. But yeah, thanks.
