June 12 this year doesn’t only mean commemorating the 120th Independence Day of our beloved Philippines, it also means we can once again fuse history and pop culture and create gags and unique humor only Pinoys will understand.
The viral trend #RP612fic, a recurring hashtag every 12th of June, once again made us laugh this year in spite of the gloomy weather. Filipinos wittily participated resulting in tweets that will go down in history, much like Rizal calling Josephine ‘baby girl.’ Check out this year’s funniest!

Jose Rizal as IV of Spades member:
Hey, my Leonor!
Maybe I can get you some wine.
My Consuelo!
How can I say that you are mine?
Hey, Josephine!
Eyes are blue from what I can see.
Hey, Segunda!
So you wanna dance with me?#RP612FIC pic.twitter.com/cLfNuH1KdN— Pancit! At Rebisco (@vicentejian) June 11, 2018
