Who among us have never been captivated by the catchy slogans of Filipino brands? Admittedly, they are comparable to songs of the dreaded "LSS" (Last Song Syndrome) – We’ve heard them, read them and they’ve captured our minds and hearts. They are often brief, direct, deep, and often can be funny, with underlying meanings that can tickle our funny bones and linger in our heads.
I chanced upon these following slogans and would like you guys to test your skills in translating the following slogans from English to Tagalog (vice-versa) and see if you can successfully translate all the slogans in an hour or two. Mind you, it is hard especially translating the really deep Tagalog words and phrases which I do some times in my own free time, or when I'm extremely drunk looking for a way to just pass out. Who knows the following slogans may actually be translated by Ironman on RBR pretty soon.
