10 Bagay na Dapat mong Gawin at 3 Bagay na Di Mo Dapat Gawin Kung Gusto Mong Mabigyan ng Pera ni Willie Revillame

Hindi na ako masyado nagsisimba kaya

nanonood na lang ako ng show ni WIlie Revillame.



Para ka na rin naman kasing nagsimba pag pinanood mo show ni Willie

(hindi ko na sasabihin pangalan ng show kasi baka mag-iba na naman pamagat nito next week, next month o next year. Napansin ko ang hindi lang nagbabago ay yung host ng show at ang style nito ng pamamahagi ng pera sa mga contestants na "pumipila mula pa madaling araw," na "galing sa Baguio," "galing sa Quezon," na `sumakay ng bus kasama ang 5 o 6 yr old na anak para magsilbing gabay sa mga bulag na mga magulang').

Gets nyo din ba na kaya mataas ang rating ng show ni Willie Revillame kasi ito ngayon ang live, real-time na Sample! ng modern-day na misa - at ang host nito ay ang 21st century self-professed na messiah-d?

Plus, nagbibigay din daw ang show ni Willie Revillame ng "bagong pag-asa," tulad din ng simbahang Katolika.

I-sight nyo, malamang sa hindi, ang show ni Willie - parang Holy Mass.

Unang-una, meron itong Introductory Rites.



Nagsisimula ito sa sayawan at/o kantahan. Kumabaga sa misa, eto yung part na nagpapaka Gloria in Excelsis Deo. Pagkatapos nito, saka e-enter ang Holy Host. Para ipakita ng tao ang kanilang pagpupuri, magtataas sila ng kanilang dalawang kamay in praise o adoration. By this greeting, the presence of the messiah is made manifest.


Ang show ni Willie, meron ding Liturgy of the Eucharist (ito ay dialogue sa pagitan ng pari at mga tao). Kung sa misa may dialogue ang pari at ang mga tao ay sumasagot sa pamamagitan ng responsorial psalm, ang show ni Willie meron ding ganito, mas free flowing lang.

Sa Kantanong segment, binabati at pinapasalamatan ng Host ang mga contestant, binabati at pinasasalamatan naman ng mga contestant ang Host, binabati at pinasasalamatan naman ng contestant ang kanyang dalang akay, at binabati/pinapasalamatan naman ng mga akay ang contestant na nagdala sa kanya sa show.



Libre pumuri ang contestant sa Host, ang Host sa contestant, ang akay sa Host at sa contestant. Pero ang Host lamang - kung gugustuhin nito - ang pwedeng magsalita at magsermon sa contestant at sa akay nito.

Ang mga manonood ay libre ding sabihin at any time during the show: "It is right to give him thanks and praise."




Ang Offertory segment naman ay pag nagbibigay ang mga manonood ng mga pagkain, bagay o gamit sa Host. Kapalit nito ay ang pamamahagi din ng Host sa mga manonood ng cellphone, jacket o pera.


Kung gusto mong makakuha ng mas mdaming pera mula sa show ni Willie Revillame, gawin mo ang mga sumusunod na tips:


1 Sabihin mong pogi at mabango si WIllie.

Babala lang: Hindi ito uubra kung ikaw ay contestant na lalake o babae na nasa edad 50 at pataas. Uubra lang ito kung ikaw ay babaeng contestant na may edad 18 - 25 at maganda sa paningin ng Host.





2 Sabihin mo: "Payakap"

Mabibigyan ka ng P1,000 - P3,000 kung ikaw ay akay ng contestant at hindi contestant mismo. Mas malamang na mabigyan ka kung ikaw ay matandang babae na nasa edad 50 yrs old and above.



3 Sabihin mo na malayo ang iyong pinanggalingan

Mas makakatulong kung ikaw ay mag-isang pumunta sa studio at dinagsa ang matinding baha, lindol o kalamidad para makarating lamang sa show. Siguraduhin mo na masabi mo lahat ng iyong ginawa para makita lamang ang Host. Pero siguraduhin mo na ang pagsabi mo hindi nagmamalaki. Dapat parang wala lang din sayo ang pinagdaanan mo. Pabayaan mong si Willie ang makapansin ng ginawa mo. Subukan mong siya mag-angat ng banko mo, hindi ikaw.


4 Magpanggap kang 80-90 years old na matandang babae.

Hindi ka lang mabibigyan ng pera, may libreng jacket at sponsor give-away ka pa.


5 Magbigay ka para ikaw ay mabigyan

Ito ay nasa Banal na Aklat kaya ito rin ang sinusunod ng Host. Maski isang supot ng pulburon, isang cake, mga kakanin, kung buo sa puso mo na makatanggap mula kay Willie Revillame, ikaw ay makakatanggap basta trip din niya na bigyan ka.


6 Sumayaw, sumunod ka sa gusto ng Host

Kung sabihin nya talon, tumalon ka. Kung sabihin nya kanta, kumanta ka. Kung sabihin nya sayaw, sumayaw ka. Magtiwala ka, siguradong mabibigyan ka. Yun na!


7 Magmakaawa ka

Noong Aug 16, 2011 episode ng show ni Willie Revillame, may contestant sa Baligtaran segment na na-Bokya. Umaasa siyang magbibigay si Host ng higit pa sa kaunti niyang napanalunan. At tulad ng inaasahan niya, pina-asa nga sya ng Host. Nakalabas na ang babae mula sa stage - at sinundan sya ng kamera sa kanyang paglalakad at pag-iyak. Nung tinawag sya muli pabalik ng Host sa stage, nagmamadaling tumakbo ang babae at niyakap ang Host. Sinabihan siya ni Willie: "Kumbinsihin mo ko!" (`Kung karapat-dapat nga kitang bigyan')

At tulad ng inaasahan, nag-kunwaring magmakaawa ang babae, with matching iyak at pag-ingit. Sa huli, nabigyan din sya. O di ba.



8 Magpatawa ka

Kung kwela ka, may pera ka!


9 Magpasikat ka

Kung totoong magaling kang kumanta, sumayaw o may talento na talagang kabilib-bilib, may palakpak ka na, may pera ka pa!



10 Makisakay ka

Kung hindi ka sumasangayon sa sinabi ng Host, e.g. "Dapat lahat tayo gumamait araw araw ng Ligo Sardines at kumain ng Gluta White soap" um-OO ka! Kung hindi, babarahin ka niya, wala ka pang anda.



Amg mga susunod naman ay mga bagay na di mo dapat gawin kung gusto mong mabigyan ng pera ni Willie.

1 Magdasal

Uubra lang ito kung ang dadasalan at luluhuran mo ay ang Host mismo.


2 Magpa-awa

Iba ito sa nagmamaka-awa. Ang magpa-awa ay pag-kukuwento - ng hindi tinatanong ni Willie - tungkol sa iyong malungkot o mabigat na nararamdaman dahil sa kawalan ng pera o anuman. Mas uubra kung ikaw ay nagkukuwento na parang wala lang, Mejo mahirap ito pero sulit. Kelangan lang i-balanse mo ang pagkukuwento na may sundot sa puso na hindi halatang nanghihingi. Mas makakatulong kung lagyan mo ng konting pag-amin. na kumbaga may pagkakamali ka rin kaya ka nandyan ngayon sa kinalalagyan mo. Kung hindi distracted ang Host at mapansin niya ang iyong pinagdaanan o pinagdadaanan at bibigyan ka ng, "Okay lang yan, lahat naman tayo nagkakamali, etc.) yun na! Itihaya mo na ang kamay mo! Now na!


3 Magkaroon ng sariling opinyon

Kung tingin mo at buo ang paniniwala mo na gagalisin ka pag nag-sardinas ka araw araw at mahal mo ang kayumanggi mong balat at magalang mo itong sinabi sa Host at sa buong madlang people, sori ka na lang dahil hindi ginagalang ng show ang may mga buo at sariling opinyon tungkol sa sarili nila at sa mga bagay-bagay.




(Disclaimer: Ang mga tips na ito ay mga suggestions lang. Nasa discretion (at mood) pa rin ng Host kung siya ay mamimigay man o hindi. Suntok sa buwan, ang pamimigay ni Host ng kaperahan ay weather weather lang.)

One more time again: And this is why Willie Revillame is still alive and kicking

We are all culturally conditioned to see self-pity - and its partner: guilt - as a virtue.



How could we get away from it when not even Jesus Christ could?




Or the other saints we grew up seeing and looking up at at our grandmother's house or those larger-than-life Caucasian statues at old Philippine churches.

Remember the facial expressions on these man-made marbles? They either had an expression of pain, was on the verge of ecstatic tears or wore a `pity me my lord,' `have mercy on me lord' face.



As if they are saying and wanted us to think that what they are doing is a gloriously wonderful thing and that we should do it too - if them fair-skinned and holy human-like statues could, we can too.

Even Jesus was used and words were figuratively put in his mouth when His statue was displayed in all its wounded glory at the church's center stage for us to see:

"How I sacrificed for ALL of you ungrateful people. See me and weep. See me and feel guilty because nothing you could do would make me feel better."



and we grew up believing, we grew up hearing, we grew up being told and preached that:

"We could never be good enough my lord, we are sorry my lord, forgive us. have mercy on us. We are mere mortals. We don't know any better. Punish us o lord for our insensitivity. O y O y are we such sinners!?"

And now self-righteous US is wondering why a lot of THEM people are fawning over Willie Revillame

when he is the most popular 21st century mainstream media version of our feelings of self-pity.

We pity ourselves and he plays the role of the savior who will validate our less-than beliefs and grant us a reward for feeling such. Enter Pavlov's dogs everytime we do feel pangs of pity-pain as we expect someone outside of us to make us feel better, albeit temporarily.





But we know that is unreal. Deep deep in the recesses of our hearts, we know we are also using pity and milking it to how far it could take us.



We are not stupid.

We know what we are doing.

We are using pity to our advantage to make others feel guilty. We control them the way they think they control us.

And maybe, Us and Willie or Manny P. or PCSO and the PH govt are made for each other after all?


"The unreal personality..is always for sacrificing things, for sacrificing yourself for others. It looks beautiful because you have been brought up in it. Sacrifice yourself for others - this is altruism...

Unless you are really contented with yourself, you cannot...help others toward their contentment...A person who sacrifices always becomes a sadist.

If your mother goes on talking to you and says, "I have sacrificed myself for you," she will torture you. If the husband says to the wife, "I am sacrificing," he will be a sadistic torturer. He will torture because sacrifice is just a trick to torture the other.

So those who are always sacrificing are very dangerous - potentially dangerous. Be aware of them..Enjoy yourself; be bliss-filled..when you are overflowing with your own bliss, that bliss will reach to others. But that is not a sacrifice. No one is obliged to you. No one needs to thank you. rather, you will feel grateful to others because they have been participating in your bliss..Be happy; only then can you help others to be happy."

from Osho The Book of Secrets.

Willie Revillame will not change, ever. But we could.

What is Willie Revillame doing now that he hasn't done 5 years ago when his show Wowowee premiered in one of the largest TV networks in the Philippines?

How different is Willie Revillame now since the Ultra Stampede where - according to Marius Corpus, then Interior Undersecretary and lead investigator of the case - "thousands of people were made..restless by the Lopez-owned company because they were offered only a few raffle tickets..and..were exploited, manipulated, and treated like animals after camping outside the arena for days."

"Offering so few tickets to so many people can be likened to throwing a small slice of meat to a pack of hungry wolves. This triggered the stampede.."

Add to this the fact that - and I saw and heard this with my own ears and eyes - days before the Wowowee anniversary show in Ultra, Willie Revillame did entice, made an open invite and encouraged all willing and even unable people to flock to the Ultra grounds A-S-A-P because they will be giving out cash/money to the first few people lined up.


Whether or not I earned less than P100 a day or/and if I had the slight chance of winning or receiving P5,000 or more, I would have lined up too. How difficult would lining up for a whole day be?

The problem was, 30,000 other people thought the same thing. So off went & flocked 30,000 people to Ultra.

Approximately 30,000 people spent the day and night sleeping on the streets and 13,000 people naturally got rabid when they were told by Wowowee staff that the arena could only hold 17,000 of them.

"But we will raffle off P5,000 to 40 lucky persons to compensate for all your troubles." a Wowowee staff reportedly said.


According to Atty Ferdinand Lavin of the NBI, this move was already too late in quelling the people's rage of being made to hope and wait for nothing - which eventually happened anyway.

But this was merely icing on a doomed cake.

The GROSS and BLATANT error was Willie Revillame dangling on national TV the faint hope of an anthill turning into a mountain of money. He conveniently disregarded the fact that people will highly likely gather like moths to his flame. Or is that what he wanted?

Wasn't that the whole point of his shows - Willing Willie and Wowowee?

Why would Willie Revillame not want to see a ton of people going crazy over him, groveling over him, craving to catch a glimpse of him, sacrificing themselves for him?

He thrives in the glory of people's attention - bad and specially good.

Being a narcissist, he will always need someone or something to fill him.

This is the same reason why he encourages feelings of insecurity and lack within his staff because he feels the same way about himself. So why would he treat the audience any different?



He doesn't just want attention, he demands it. He would go to great lengths to milk enough of it or to control any situation just to get it.

He chooses anyone and everyone he finds bully-able: men, women, old people, the body of late Pres. Cory, children, his friends.







What is Willie Revillame saying, expressing, showing now that he hasn't said, expressed, showed before?


Why are we still watching him? Do we want to be included in his statistics?

‘Wowowee’ tragedy pulls up ratings of ABS-CBN shows
By KAYE VILLAGOMEZ
February 8, 2006, 8:00am

Grief and shock on the Ultra stampede earned ABS-CBN an upswing on the ratings race over the weekend.


Those who do watch him either feel lacking and insecure themselves so they are craving for him to fill their "emptiness" or are just as controlling and demanding as him - but will surely not admit to it.


See, Willie Revillame doesn't really care that you care or don't care on what he says or do. Either way, you're watching anyway. And that is all that should matter to him.

Boycotting his sponsors is an excellent move. But unless you do not want to let him go and if you still love to hate him, you are still paying him attention - literally.

So how do you stop the antics of a self-professed "savior of the masses," singer, millionaire, breasts-loving celebrity? How do you put a halt to the unbridled attention it un-rightfully deserves? Don't give yours.

Filipinos are not shallow. Filipinos are codependent. F Sionil Jose is lazy and wrong.

One of my idols, F Sionil Jose - author of the novels Mass, Tree & my favorite The Pretenders - said:

“The Pinoy is shallow, mababaw ang kaligayahan. Their idols (Willie Revillame / Kris Aquino) reflect this shallowness.”

I do not personally know F Sionil Jose - though I have been to his Solidaridad Bookstore in Padre Faura to have my copies of Ermita and The Pretenders signed by his literary excellency - so my comments and opinions about him are only based on what I have read him say.

I could only guess that he probably decided to take the obvious route or maybe his years of experience dictated on him the facts of his Filipinos-are-shallow thesis. But I factually feel that it is lazy - and therefore easier - to call people `shallow' or stupid than to find out why they are the way they are.

I feel Filipinos are NOT shallow for still loving, watching and salivating for the antics of alleged mass murderer Willie Revillame.

My gut says the Filipino is NOT shallow for wanting to buy anything and everything with Kris Aquino's face on it.

Most Filipinos are actually codependent. And it is not our fault. We are all conditioned to be one.

"Codependency is

* a tendency to behave in overly passive or excessively caretaking ways..

and

* involves putting one's needs at a lower priority than others while being
excessively preoccupied with the needs of others.

* Codependency may also be characterized by denial, low self-esteem, excessive
compliance, and/or control patterns."


Codependence - the concept - had its roots allegedly from the group Alcoholics Anonymous when drunks realized that they are a problem as much as the people around them who let them drink and/or who probably - knowingly/unknowingly - may have caused or encouraged them to drink in the first place (the former is truer than the latter though).

Codependents are intense enablers. Or, "I give you ME, but you must give me ME."

Marge Simpson in the Simpsons episode Regarding Margie forgot she was an enabler/codependent when she had amnesia (she fell & hit her head after inhaling tons of fumes from cleaning detergents).

When she lost her memory, Marge regained her self-esteem and refused to believe Homer is her husband. Her sisters then set her up on a date with a man who unfortunately did not like the idea of a woman having three kids so he dumped her. Homer runs to Marge's defense and explains to the man Marge's classic codependent behaviors and why she is therefore a good catch:



Homer to Man: "You idiot! Do you know what you just gave up?..You just walked away from the sweetest most beautiful woman a guy could want. In ten years, she never had the last slice of pizza and she's never complained. Every election she wishes she could vote for both guys because they both seem nice. And there's a light inside her that makes everyone else look better. And you blew her off."

Man: "Dude, she's got three kids."

Homer: "I...really? Well, she's still great."


Marge eventually got her memory back when she was reminded of Homer's alcoholism.



Homer: "What do you say we stop for a drink on the way home?"

Marge: "You drink?"

Homer: "Uh, yeah, I started while you were in the hospital. You see, I recently tried this thing called beer..."

Marge: (gasps) "I remember everything now. You get drunk all the time!"

Homer: "Oh...but do you also remember that you're an enabler?"

Marge: "Of course! That's why we're such a great team" (she kiss Homer on the cheek).

(Homer begins swerving uncontrollably)

Marge: "Homer, have you been drinking today?"

Homer: "I sure have, partner!"



***

"In families, Codependent behaviors are a set of coping behaviors that are passed from generation to generation...in order to survive...family members across the next three or four generations learn a set of behaviors which help them deal with the emotional pain inherited from the original dysfunctional family unit. These behaviors, although designed to relieve pain, create pain! They constitute a deeply embedded "cognitive set" upon which codependency or dependency disorders are founded. Whether or not addiction existed in our nuclear family, codependency is a deeply rooted compulsive behavior that is born out of a dysfunctional family system."

In Filipino families, an example of a codependent is a Filipina OFW mother I saw in a GMA-7 documentary years ago who was working her butt off in Hongkong to send money to her unemployed husband, unemployed adult children and their unemployed children's wives/husbands and kids.

In my family, codependency is where an aunt does/spends/gives anything and everything for family members. She doesnt ask for anyone's help and she cannot say no when she needs to for fear of being judged or thought little of. She is giving in order to get - be it attention/perceived love or feigned respect.

It is a sick cycle and a sad mindset.

Think of the The Giving Tree and replace it with a friend, relative or person you know who displays self-sacrifice to a fault. Or could it be you?




****

Schools and churches helped us to be codependents too. Didn't they teach us to give and give until the givee's cup runneth over? That we are supposed to sacrifice our selves the way - the nuns in our Catholic school and the priests in any and every church said - Christ did? Aren't we all supposed to deny pleasure and beat ourselves if we fail to act like a good moral super being? So says too mainstream TV.


Again, it is not our fault if we are codependent because everybody is and every good Filipino is supposed to be one.





Which brings us back to F Sionil Jose's i-heart-to-hate-attitude for Willy Revillame and his female counterpart Kris Aquino.

Today is the age when big TV networks create and build up someone to be (have) a (big) personality. By the power of the network's (and its minion's) grey skull, they could now pull out from thin air the words "family," "love" and spin it to mean as if it is - and make it all / and that they're doing it all - for and about us. But actually, all of it is for and about the networks. It was never really all about us and it never will.



And everybody needs to be codependent or else, no one will pay any attention to the church's, school's, TV's & any mainstream institution's machinations, manipulations and mind fuck.

They need to get something from us.

In television, ratings embody this. Specifically, attention is the currency we give them. They want our attention badly they are willing to bribe us for it.

They bribe us with hope. They keep us addicted to hope. Hope is the drug and it comes in many forms: the chance to win tons of money, a house and lot, a kabuhayan showcase.

I remember TV didn't used to be like this, or at least not this desperately needy. It used to be all for fun. Now, networks are taking the taking of our attention seriously as if our life depended on it.

The promise of a good life is being dangled under our noses. And if we feel empty, if we always feel lacking, we will feel desperate enough to bite. Desperation and neediness attract desperate and needy people.






They need us to feel insecure all day everyday so we can look forward to the coming of a grandiose savior which will give us anything and everything we want because we are too little, too weak, too small to provide for ourselves and to be our own Source.

And these are what Willie Revillame, Kris Aquino and the coddlers, enablers, creators of these popularly beautiful monsters live off of - our emptiness is theirs to fill in the same way they would most likely be dead unless we give them our attention.

Regardless of whether they receive good attention or bad is not the point. They'd take anything and everything. This is why Willie and his defunct show was still alive even after the Ultra stampede killed a number of his loyal & faithful audience.

If they ended the show at such a low point, it would be a crass admission of guilt. Plus, Willie is an extension of the big TV network's ego so cutting him off is similar to them severing an arm. It would hurt, it would bleed and it would not look good. (Iimage is everything specially for those who always want to look their best on the reflections off their TV screens.)

But when Willie started rebelling against them, the network saw him no longer as the Golden Child but a monster they will never admit they helped create. The least they could do is devalue him. Meanwhile, all Willie could do is to prop himself up further in a different network whilst still taking full advantage of the same neediness and desperation he helped promote.

And since we are codependently conditioned, we continually provide what Willie wants - and even crave more of it. We allowed Willie to return and we watch him still. We have bought a ticket to play in his game. We buy in, he wins.

He takes the entire pie, we are more than happy with the crumbs.

All these work / operate and have successfully been made possible because of the belief planted in us by big worldly self-professed saviors that something is better and bigger than us.

That there is a powerful stalker who always knows what we are up to and what is best for us. That we should depend anything and everything upon a powerful stalker because us alone, by ourselves, are powerless. We believe we do not hold the key to our lives. Someone else does. And we should surrender our lives to it or him.

Essentially, our dysfunctional psyche and stagnant-platitudes-disguised-as-truths also helps keep all these functioning.

Go ahead, ask yourself and review all the things you have heard, have read or others have said you do, must do, need to do or else "you'll go to hell," "you'll go crazy," "you'll die," "you'll be punished," etc. and see - whether you believe the platitude or not - how you actually unconsciously live it.

e.g.

The fear of dog is the beginning of wisdom

Turn the other cheek so you can have it slapped too

Humble yourself and be proud of it

Love your enemies but secretly hate them

Lack of money is the root of all evil

Suffering now is GOOD because Heaven's reward for it is BETTER. Plus, because your persecutors will be shat on by God anyway: EXCELLENT.

This heart-felt fully beautiful song sums up the mindset of codependence which we have been taught to believe we must aspire to since it is noble and good to do so.




All these are ingrained deep in our selves it would probably take tons of digging through heaps of denial to get to our own core truth. So dig we must.

The Filipino therefore is not shallow. We are actually working through deep ingrained patterns of cultural and personal issues of self-worth.

Dog help us all. But for starters, feel free to first help your self.
