8 Wasak Comebacks for
“Masyado Ka Kasing Matalino!”
When did being smart become an almost criminal offense?
For a country that says it values education (and underpaid, overworked teachers) and where poor families sacrifice everything to send their kids to school to get a degree (for, duh, a better life), people do smart-shame a lot, if we go by the trollish, orcish comments that pervade social media posts these days.
Often, reasoning with these barbaric keyboard marauders is an exercise in futility and frustration. Or, as our esteemed UN ambassador would call them: fuckwits.
If you’ve ever been flabbergasted or stunned to silence at exquisitely subtle and nuanced ejaculations like “Eh di ikaw na ang madaming alam!” and “Gifted ka kasi!” or “Sumobra ka na kasi sa talino”; or my personal favorites of the crude troll weapons: BIAS! And OBOSEN! then we’re here to arm you with the kind of witty resbak retort that won’t quite fly over their heads and still make a lasting impact.
Kind of like confusing a rat with cat pheromones and the smell of cheese. They can’t help but take the bait. Get your popcorn and see the righteous results. You’re welcome!

Copy paste the link to the classic “Doon Lang” by OPM balladeer Nonoy Zuñiga.
And the lyrics for reference:
Kung natapos ko ang aking pag-aaral
Disin sana’y mayron na akong dangal
Na ihaharap sa’yo at ipagyayabang
Sa panaginip lang ako may pagdiriwang
Yaman at katanyagan sa akin ay wala
Kakisigan ko ay bunga ng isang sumpa
Ang aking ina ang tangi kong tagahanga
Sa panaginip lang ako may nagagawa
Doon ay kaya kong ipunin lahat ng bituin
Doon ay kaya kong igapos ihip ng hangin
Doon ay kaya kong pagbawal buhos ng ulan
Sa panaginip lang kita mahahagkan t’wina
Doon lang
Kung ‘di dahil sa barkada ay tapos ko na
Ang pag-aaral na nagbibigay ng halaga
Sa awitin kong ito mo lang madarama
Mga pangarap kong walang pangagamba
Doon ay kaya kong ipunin lahat ng bituin
Doon ay kaya kong igapos ihip ng hangin
Doon ay kaya kong pagbawal buhos ng ulan
Sa panaginip lang kita mahahagkan t’wina
Doon lang
Doon ay kaya kong ipunin lahat ng bituin
Doon ay kaya kong igapos ihip ng hangin
Doon ay kaya kong pagbawal buhos ng ulan
Sa panaginip lang kita mahahagkan t’wina
Doon lang
