Comedienne Ethel Booba tweeted a more trendy response to typical Tita questions this Christmas about why you are still single, an updated version of pro-Duterte blogger Sass Sasot’s response.

Sasot tweeted about her suggestion on what one should answer if during Noche Buena a ‘tactless’ aunt asks you why you are still unmarried.
“Kapag tinanong ka ng tita mong taklesa ngayong Noche Buena kung bakit wala kapang asawa, gayahin mo si PNoy: Sisihin mo si Gloria,” Sasot tweeted.
But Booba said Sasot’s suggestion was outdated and offered a response that is more in keeping with the trend these days.
“That’s so 2015. Ang uso ngayon “Tita, give me at least 3 to 6 months at makakahanap din ako ng jowa.” Then kapag di mo natupad extend mo pa ng 5 more years. Charot!” Booba wrote.
As of writing, the tweet has been retweeted over 4,000 times and liked over 15,000 times.

Sasot’s response was in reference to the usual criticism that former President Benigno Aquino’s critics throw at him as he was prone to blaming the administration of former President Gloria Arroyo for the many woes of his administration.
Booba was referring to President Rodrigo Duterte’s campaign promise of suppressing crime, drugs and corruption in three to six months.
In September 2016, Duterte said he needs six more months for his war against drugs in the country, explaining that he did not realize how big the Phlilippines’ drug problem is. In December 2016, he admitted that his 6-month deadline was a “miscalculation.” In August 2017, he said that he was wrong about giving his administration six months to suppress the country’s drug and crime problem when even the generals and cops are involved. Earlier this month, President Duterte asked for another year as extension to his campaign against drugs.
