    Don't forget:

    Fagstags (straight men who hangs around with gays) similar to Faghags. Example: Dennis is a fagstag by default because of Tessa.

    Chuva-buffs: bading na pamintang durog, majubis pero carry. Akala mo muscle, sebo de macho lang pala.

    Tita Dell PC: syn. User-friendly. Ex: Hayyy Tita Dell, Use me in a sentence.
