Gaisano Mall is sometimes a good place to hang especially when you have nothing to do. Much a good place if you have monies to spend. My favorite place to “tambay” is the stair going to the cellphone store. Lot of ladies passed that place window shopping the latest models of cellphones. What caught my attention was the reminder posted at the escalator- ESCALATOR REMINDERS. Was it reminding the escalator or reminding the public on the use of the escalator? Whatever. It warned that “using the escalator when not in use is strictly prohibited”. Holy pigok! Butuan english.

so what’s your definition of Butuan English?…never heard of such variation among the English language hybrids..
Ha ha ha! This is reminiscent of an ad they’ve posted in May 2003 where there were a lot of misspellings and grammatically incorrect phrases and sentences. My friends and I happened to have all the time correcting those mistakes that the security guard and one supervisor caught us in the act of doing the writing all the corrections. One of my friends proudly told them, “Pasensya na mo ha. Bright man gid mi.”
