The Pirates of Quiapo

I went to Quiapo this morning to get an NBI (National Bureau of Investigation) clearance and I passed by all these stalls selling bootleg DVD copies of some of my favorite movies. I asked my mom to buy them for me but she said pirated DVDs were being confiscated in MRT stations. You could supposedly now get in trouble for being in possession of one.

That wouldn’t have mattered to me at all if not for the fact that we were indeed going to take the MRT2 to get to Marikina.

Oh well, next time I’m taking a cab. Ha!

Now that I think of it, what’s the NBI doing allowing those illegal vendors to set up their booths a stone’s throw away from their office, huh? Tsk tsk.

    i think you’ll only get in trouble if you’re caught buying during one of edu’s raids. yup, that’s the only time, i think. sad, no?
