Did Orang Sunda Frequently Labuh?
last night aing (+ was > kusabab past tense = verb dua euy) mantog ka coffee shop. perihal-perkawis grammatical emang rada knotty rujit na yet myself sanés the cops of aturan (ber-)basa. jadi kie, in a nutshell, the vibes di ditu meni hebring, frankly ieu mah. sim kuring embung body shaming tapi there was baturan high school nu bengeutna, increasingly, similar to talapok tutut. in other words, makin butut. but si eta téh chesty na undoubtedly pikaseubeleun. god’s mahahereuy, he fell down. sialna i didn’t know—teu terang—he was tiseureleu, tigebrus, tisoledat, titajong, tijengkang, tikosewad, tikusruk, or ticeungklak, or simply fall jadi fell kusabab verb dua. tong too much mikiran meaning. pusing, basicly, lebok sih, anying.

Ngababat the Myth after Perang Bubat
: AFWS
baheula, nini aing tells a lullaby… there was a myth bahwa orang Sunda “ulah with” orang Jawa. my grandma even says it was ‘pamali’. at that time, heaven knows myself heueuh-heueuh bueuk. a kind of verbally ‘muhun’, practically ‘hanteu’.
ayeuna, i have a GF. she’s ODGJ… orang dengan gangguan Jawa. in her eyes, aing teu manggih Majapahit’s ambition. atawa the ghost of Hayam Wuruk (Hayam Geprek sih probably aya). atawa demit patih Gajah Mada & his Sumpah Palapa. sumpah demi sejarah & setan-setan, we didn’t meet at Pesanggrahan Bubat atawa Trowulan. & aing teu gableg kahayang to become another Dyah Pitaloka nu committed bundir by stabbing her heart make konde. he he he.
makana, hayu demystify every pamali! gaskeun teu si?

Tekor plus Kasohor

but, saha sih nu embung popularity & social validity? arek poor, arek rich. both of them boga hak nu sarua. if we ngalarang-larang nu teu boga acis, di mana kaadilan cultural for all the peeps?
