“I love you so much, meme! Sobra sobra sobra sobra kitang idol, and thank you for representing me at napakarami pang mga bakla. Katulad ng nasabi ko sa ’yo nung unkabogaball, ang saya-saya ko na merong isang bakla na nandoon sa tuktok na never pang naabot ng anyone from our community because of this harsh world,” he added.
