What is "Netflix N Chill" ?

 The slang term "Netflix N Chill" is quickly taking over the Internet with hilarious still images, memes, Vines, and other funny and comical reactions on YouTube. 

To me Netflix and chill is when you ask someone over to watch Netflix, you chill out together by sitting down next to each other, eat some food and have something to drink while watching Netflix and get to know each other on a more personal level. By coming over to the persons house you are sort of putting your trust in them and in a way you are saying to them that you would be open to intimate contact that could go as far as you both felt comfortable with. 

In the innocent days  “Netflix and chill” really did mean “chilling out and watching Netflix”. It was more like a solo activity. There you were, sitting on your sofa, the latest season of whatever-it-is playing  in front of you, the “chill” part of the equation very much not a euphemism for anything at all. Now it all  seemed like a clever inside joke understood and appreciated by a very considerable amount of people and  I wasn’t one of them.

In April 2015, the term “Netflix and chill” is added to Urban Dictionary ,written by user LaxBuhl7, defines “Netflix and chill” as “code for two people going to each others houses and fucking or doing other sexual related acts.”

This not-so-fancy "Netflix N Chill" practices are driving us away from traditional dating. We're slowly killing actual dates, we get invited over to watch movies.  “Netflix and Chill” could totally be a good thing for most people,  but most of the time it’s not.

Why did Ms.Pastillas choose Chard as her Mr. Pastillas?

 Angelica Yap AKA "Pastillas Girl" was featured on It's Showtime on Vice Ganda's segment "Madam Bertud".  She was seeking for an advice about her breakup with her last boyfriend who cheated on her with very own best friend.  Somehow it seems like luck was on her side because this paved way to a new segment for the show entitled "Nasaan Ka Mr.Pastillas" where she has to choose rightful aspirant to win her heart. 

After more than a month of looking for a man to help her move on from a failed relationship, she has finally found her "Mr. Pastillas."

On "It's Showtime, Biyaheng Cebu" held on October 17 at Hoops Dome in Lapu-Lapu City, the 21-year-old Yap chose Richard "Chard" Parajinog over other suitors, Christopher "Topher" Labao and Michael Enriquez.

There were many speculations about the aftermath of the long-awaited search for the rightful Mr.Pastillas.  Why did she choose him over the other suitors who are just as good looking as Chard?

According to Angel, she picked Chard mainly because of his humility, humbleness and his attitude “Kasi very humble siya, alam naman natin na may kaya si Chard but hindi niya ‘yun ginagamit as one step ahead sa kanila. Pero lahat sila mabait, lahat sila deserving. Hirap na hirap ako mamili. May mga nights na hindi ako makatulog, ‘Sino ba talaga?’ Pero may isa kang person na kailangan mong piliin na kasi hindi mo makukuha lahat, and I think it’s Chard,” she said.

I feel sorry for Christopher and Mike, but there's nothing I can do about it. She has chosen her knight and all we have to do is to accept her decision. 

The search conclusion went lovely. The show handled the segment ending beautifully despite the MTRCB’s (Movie and Television Review and Classification Board) complaints about the show early in October for allegedly 'pimping' Yap in the show as raised by women's group Gabriela.

I wonder what’s next to Mister and Miss Pastillas and what’s next to the continuation of the story.
