Forwarded Email: Badafinition 101 and 102

I think you're gonna agree with me that Filipino gay lingo has sprouted like mushroom in the Philippine social setting - at least in today's generation. Whether you're at school, shopping mall or workplace, you'll hear "beki   lingo," and it doesn't really matter if the one "talking" is a gay or not. I think it's because gay lingo is funny - probably because the "words" sound a little bit weird. I'm not really sure. Anyway, here are sample Filipino gay lingo with definition and example shown. I've taken this from an email forwarded to me by my fellow Quality Analyst at wok:
