on the lighter (?) side of the bombing incident

Despite the graveness of the situation that happened, Iliganons still have a knack of making situations a bit lighter.

status messages of some Iligan contacts:
- Merry Christmas! Boom! [Rexxie]
- Maaga (natapos) ang pasko sa Iligan [Johann]
- Let it blow! (3x) [Ackie] ("let it snow" dapat)
- Good bombings we bring, while you go shopping [Ackie] ("good tidings we bring..." dapat)

excerpt from a blog post:
- my mom was actually shopping for gifts for her fellow teachers in Unicity around two pm. She even saw the explosion. She said the people around her were screaming and her companion even made weewee in her pants because of fear. [BR]

comment from a photo album:
on a picture of people running and panicking, while one guy is just walking calmly
- 100% pinoy. I like the guy in lower right.. just playin' it cool.. para ingnon isog! (kalibangon na diay tu sa kaguol) [translation: so that others will say he's strong! (but in fact, he feels like shitting because of panic)]. ;)

forwarded text message:
- safe ang iligan 2day ky naa c PGMA k0ug nya clang Naruto, clang Goku ug ang Justice Leage, m0pas rdw unyang hp0n ang p0wer rangers .. 0k ra mang laag unya gbie .. Pls pass ..
[translation: Iligan is safe today because PGMA is here, with Naruto, Goku and the Justice League.  The Power Rangers will arrive later this day.  It is alright to go out tonight.  Please pass]
