Give The Suman Challenge …

Jump to Comments

… and see if your significant other really, really, and I mean really, loves you.

Suman makes the world go round.

Suman makes the world go round.

The idea is somewhat brilliant. I am fairly sure it will thrill all those kindsof persons who perpetuates chain mails, chain emails, chain texts as well as those paranoia- induced bfs/gfs who text their respective gfs/bfs with another number to test their fidelity.

Heres the challenge: make your significant other believe that your Christmas gift to him/her is a whole supot of suman, about 2-3 bunches. Yep, suman as in suman the food. Make him/her accept it seriously – AS IF IT REALLY IS THE ONLY THING YOU HAVE THOUGHT OF GIVING. You are not joking.

Act like you think its a brilliant idea. Bring nothing else that wold arouse suspicion that you have another gift (that is if, you have another). Do not, and I say, DO NOT, laugh.

Bonus points of you can pull off these things:

  • Talk about the suman being a metaphor of your relationship – you stick together through thick and thin, and are very sweet. Be creative.

  • Say that when you saw these suman, you automatically thought of her/him. Why? Well, be creative again.

  • Say the saying “Its the thought that counts.” at least 5 times throughout the evening. Then casually let her see the new ipod you’ve bought for yourself.

  • Say that this is not complete yet. Entreat him/her to accompany you to the nearest sari sari store or grocery to buy 1/4th kilo of white sugar. Give it as a 2nd Christmas gift.

  • Tie a big red ribbon to your supot of suman before you give it.

If I had a gf, I would totally do this. (Evil parallel version of me merged with Mr. T: …and that is why you don’t have one , fool!)

Di naman. After the test would be a bunch of flowers. The reaction would be really really priceless, don’tcha think?

  • if i do this, he would actually think i’m serious! i suck at giving gifts. I think I am the inspiration on this one. heheh

    Bakit naman di ba nga pinapayuhan mo pa ko nuon Nix na kung magrereglao ako sa gf, dapat relo? Ano bang mga nireregalo mo? Dead cats?

  • I will not be surprised if my better half does this, just so he can piss me off. And knowing him, there is even a chance that he will actually be serious in the act, and truly compares our love to suman.

    Well, sa totoo lang, Kuya Jojo can pull it off magnificently. Pauto ka naman harharhar.
