You Got To Follow Your Road: 8 Roads That Might Be “Your Road”
Apr 12, 2018 • Kel Fabie
So. By now, most of you have probably caught that infamous segment from the show 90-Day Fiance, where Larry and his girlfriend, Jenny, have a spat all because Jenny’s family went through all the trouble to serve lechon in honor of their guest, and Larry just treated it with barely contained disgust. Dude. Lechon! Unless Larry’s vegan, we would never understand that in a million years.
In any case, the subsequent spat after the lechon led to this now-immortalized gem:
Yeah, she has an accent that made it sound like she was saying “your road,” but whatever. For anyone who watched the show, they’d realize that’s the least problematic thing about her, seeing how often she’s scowling throughout the show, and how willing she is to pick a fight with Larry’s relatives at the drop of a hat. That, and let’s face it: they met on a dating app. It’s nowhere nearly as funny when real life creeps in, is it?
Still, it’s an interesting idea to humor: if Jenny truly meant “your road,” exactly which road could she possibly have been referring to? We have 8 suggestions.
Session Road, Baguio
Why This Road Is Special: It’s the one that Anthony dreamed about, walking with Mace along the length of this iconic road in That Thing Called Tadhana.

Dennis Ro(a)dman
Why This Ro(a)dman Is Special: He’s one of the best defenders of all time, and won a total of five NBA championships, three of them with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. Above all that, he’s known as one of the “bad boys” of the NBA, with a penchant for body piercings and shockingly bright-colored hair.
Why This Could Be Your Ro(a)dman: If you’re as bad as you wanna be, and you’re evil enough to not eat lechon prepared by your girlfriend’s family for you, then Dennis Rodman is your road.
