You know, I had no idea I was subscribed to so many websites. I’ve come to realize this when I was continuously receiving e-mails about a so called ‘Privacy Policy and Data Protection update’. For the past few days many companies have been telling me that they have updated their privacy policies. That’s because the European Union recently passed a new law about privacy and data protection that affects all companies operating in the European Zone. It’s called the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation, effective as of May 25, 2018), which contains significant changes in data protection regulation in the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA), and it replaces the former legal framework Data Protective Directive. This is not the confession, but here it comes.
It became such a heated debate on Internet, Television, Radio shows, and pretty much all other media channels. It seemed to me like another “what color is the dress?” viral thingie. When I heard the clip I clearly heard what the voice said, but many people heard something completely different which led me to believe that many people have a hearing problem.
So what is the voice really saying? Actor Jay Aubrey Jones told the NBC in an interview that he barely recognized his own voice in the recording. “I’m completely and utterly floored by this, I’m really amused…every so often I’m laughing”, he said.
Listen to the clip one more time before we reveal the truth…listen to it carefully:
What Jones actually said was—hold tight, for you’re not going to believe this—‘Hink’é aden’, which is my latest book that’s coming out this Sunday May 27th. For only 50 bucks you can get yours. Just come by at Hotel Trupial Inn between 2 and 5 PM and I’ll give you the best humor book ever written!
I know, I was just as shocked by you to realize that my book’s name has been going around all over the internet for the past few days. I just realized that I’m famous. I am so going to be a millionaire. After I cash in all my money I’m going to buy a big house on a deserted island far away from everyone, four sport cars and helicopter.
Okay, let me come back to earth…..555
What the actor Jay Aubrey said during the clip, and Jones confirmed this during the interview, was the word “Laurel”. He explained that the clip was from a 10 year old recording for Vocabulary.com which is a website to help students in learning new words. I don’t know why they should learn the word “Laurel”, or who the hell is Laurel, but that’s how it is.

Experts explain that people may hear two different words due to the frequency of the sound which is captured differently by our brains. Even President of the United States was caught up in this debate. What a way to waste presidential time, isn’t it. I wonder if he would grab Laurel by the pussy too if he knew her. Hmmm
Anyway, there you have it. Those who were convinced that the word was Yannie, y’all should change your brain frequency. It’s capturing the wrong signals. LOL
But hey, ‘Hink’é aden’ (Put it in) is still pretty close to Laurel too, so…yeah. I’m going with ‘HInk’é aden.’
Meskos ku na Kòrsou, hopi hende na Venezuela lo ta kere ku keda sin bai vota lo yuda trese kambio. Esei ta loke a sosodé ayera na Venezuela. Un kantidat grandi di persona a keda sin bai vota, kual a pone ku Nicolas Maduro a gana, derotando su oponentenan ku un porsentahe di diferensha di voto di mas haltu ku nunka un otro presidente a yega di gana. (Segun Maduro, nò ku e sifranan mes ta masha haltu.)
Dos aña pasá mi a pidi Aymar p’e lesa mi buki ‘Awa, Habon ku Past’i Djente’ p’e duna mi su opinion honesto riba kontenido di e buki. E di ku mi ku e ta purba les’é, pero ku e no gusta lesa buki. Mi a bis’é ku no ta nada i p’e djis hasi su bèst.
El a bai kas bai lesa e buki i den dos dia e ta puntra mi si mi tin mas. Mi a bis’é nò, i ku ta tuma mi mas ku un aña pa skibi un buki. No ta mané galiña ku ta pone webu tur dia mi ta saka buki. E di ku mi ku nunka el a hari asina tantu lesando un buki, anto e ke mas pa lesa. Mi a bis’é no tin.
Siguiente siman e ta ‘app’ mi puntra mi atrobe si tin mas buki. Mi a rabia i blòk e. E ponementu di preshon ei, ami no por kuné.
Djadumingu último e organisashon I.B.F.F. tabata tin su evento ‘Gala of Beauty’ titulá “Andale, Andale Mexico” na Curaçao Renaissance Hotel.
Mi a keda invitá pa presensiá e evento aki, kual mi tabata tin espektativanan haltu p’e, komo mi sa ku e persona na kabes, esta Aubrey America, su eventonan ta di alto nivel. Mi ta suponé ku e sa ku mi ta un persona sumamente opservativo i krítiko, pues mi ta kere ku e sa ku si ami presensiá e evento aki, lo mi bai kas despues i skibi un relato krítiko riba tur e kosnan ku mi a opservá. Prinsipalmente kosnan ku a shòk mi, mi no por keda ketu riba nan. A ni maske e paga mi, mi no ta keda ketu riba nan.
Mi buki ‘Hink’é aden’ ta riba laman na kaminda pa Kòrsou. Esaki lo bira mi di kuater buki na Papiamentu ku mi a skibi i publiká kompletamente riba mi mes.
Si bo ta lesando e teksto aki, pabien. Bo ta un di e tiki personanan ku ta habri un ‘link’ pa lesa loke tin skibí. Mayoria hende no ta hasié, i tin di nan ta asta duna komentario sin lesa nada. Nan ta lesa solamente e titulo, i kuminsá bati boka (òf dede).
Whenever people want you to read or watch something, they say it will blow your mind. I find that very stupid. You know why? Because I don’t want my mind blown. The thing I want blown, is something else. Anyway….let’s talk about the truth behind ‘déjà vu’, shall we?
Most people believe that “déjà vu”—which is French for “already seen”—is the same thing happening all over again. Therefore some people think they have some kind of supernatural power or that it is a memory from a past life. (Yeah, that would be creepy.)
Nan ta bisa ku debí na e situashon prekario na nan pais, nos mester trata e venezolanonan bon. Ami a bai purba hasi bon ku nan, pero mira loke a pasa mi.
In this century women surpass men in many areas. More women than men now graduate college with Master Degrees and PhD’s, and many women have higher earnings than their male counterparts.
Multiple studies show that, when asked, men say they prefer dating intelligent and ambitious women. But according to these women, the reality proves otherwise. They say that men are threatened by their ambition, independence and success. Well, oke!
Let me ask you something, and please be honest. Let’s assume you are a very ambitious, strong and successful woman and that I’m interested in dating you. I’m a broke-ass writer making peanuts, while you make shitloads of money. I am fairly content with what I do, and I’m simply not as ambitious as you are. Would you accept dating me, or would you rather date a more ambitious man with more….let’s say….resource potential?
Many people have very high views of the United States and would surprisingly feel safer shopping in US than sleeping in bed next to Kim Jong Un. While you may feel unsafe to walk in the streets of any underdeveloped country, yet pretty safe to vacation and ‘shop till you drop’ in United States, allow me to give you a change of perspective.
Pa medio di e artíkulo aki mi ta bai ekspresá mi opinion riba hinter e evento i tambe resultado di Festival di Tumba 2018. Bo ta wèlkòm pa lesa, pero si bo ta bai duna komentario promé ku bo sa ken baina mi ta, mihó bo “hasi bo research” promé bo hasi bo mes ridíkulo. Mi sa di kiko mi ta papia!
There is a video going around Facebook of a lady singer named Gale Harry that caught quite a few steamed reactions. She’s apparently a country singer from Curaçao and one of her videos, which was uploaded about a year ago, got more than 20K views. Here’s a clip of one of her songs:
There are (I think) two ways your heart can malfunction and cause you to die. There is cardiac arrest, and there is heart attack. Cardiac arrest happens when the heart malfunctions and suddenly stops beating. In Papiamentu we say “E kurason a strike”. It causes someone to fall unconscious and stop breathing. Unless Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation or defibrillation (CPR) is rapidly given to this person, the person will die. In Papiamentu we say “kapush”. Heart attack is different. Heart attack happens when blood flow to the heart is blocked.
