Contrary views on comedians hipon word spiel trickles in online ruralurbanews.wordpress/2014/08/17/has-my-beloved-davao-gone-a-little-too-much-on-being-strict-contrary-views-on-comedians-hipon-word-spiel-trickles-in-online/ “Has my beloved Davao gone a little too much on being strict? Are we killing ourselves by choking everyone else with rules that ‘may be’ unnecessary and defeats the purpose of unwinding on festivities?” Are the first words of netizen Sarah Dayrit in her Facebook, obviously opining on the the current brouhaha over the “hipon” word spiel made by comedian Ramon Bautista in gamely describing Dabawenya women during the Kadawayan Invasion rave party at the Crocodile Park Saturday night. Dayrit may have hit the head of the nail in trolling public reactions in online uproar, even while comments to her post start to trickle in the thread. “Don’t get me wrong, I respect rules and prioritizing the safety of the public as well as upholding the dignity of people but, I think there is a very fine line between being cautious and OA or KJ,” she said. “On the other hand, I also question my priorities. Am I being biased to the issue because I have heard people complaining and my judgement may have clouded because I agree with what they are saying? Davao has been known to be a place where government has been really tough but is (this) the point where the toughness must be reconsidered because like everything else, too much of anything is bad. #justasking #whatdoyouthink,” she opined. She also commented: “makes me think about the kind of life we wanted the whole world to think sa line ng Davao City na “Life is Here”. Netizen Rigo Bibera reacted: “I hate to admit it, pero mejo OA lang ang mga reaction ng tao. Overrated masyado ang mga (petty) na issue.” (Rural Urban News/Al Rosero)
