- diggnidy, on 05/24/2009, -2/+23Rice is great if you're really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.

Potang in amo
Gusto po samunte sa get high?
And that is the extent of my tagalog. The spelling is way off too haha - inactive, on 05/24/2009, -0/+10I live in the Philippines and I've seen this place personally. It is absolutely one of the best places to see in the country and it's considered to be a man-made wonder. A must-see if you plan on touring the Philippines, it's beauty varies in different seasons because the color/growth of the rice. The picture is great, but it's a completely different thing to see it first hand so it can't be compared.
- gilbertagab, on 05/24/2009, -0/+8For those who want, translation :D
"Mahal Keeta", supposed to be "Mahal Kita" which means I Love You
"Potang in amo" is "Putang ina mo". its basically the tagalog version of Son of a Bitch
I couldn't get the 3rd one :D. poor spelling indeed, no offense :) - hotjava23, on 05/24/2009, -0/+8WOW Philippines! I'm glad a beautiful landmark from my home-country the Philippines gets featured here on Digg.

- Deathbyeggroll, on 05/24/2009, -0/+6RPRZNT.
- PassinGass, on 05/24/2009, -0/+6hmm, pretty near that backpacker's camp where you could buy dirt-cheap marijuana, not-so-cheap prostitutes from the local police in return for guaranteed zero crime, and complete anonymity.
As usual, they're completely missing the selling point of the tourist spot...rice imports completely ruined a lot of those farmers in the 80s, so drop by and spare some change, ok Joe?
Just don't go hiking in communist New People's Army controlled areas...their travel tax is pretty steep. - spepin, on 05/24/2009, -1/+6That's a lot of rice.
- jwolcott, on 05/24/2009, -0/+5They are fed by an ancient irrigation system from the rainforests above the terraces. It is said that if the steps are put end to end it would encircle half the globe.

- sanguinekane, on 05/24/2009, -0/+4Because its an amazing photo of a beautiful landscape.
- fragmer, on 05/24/2009, -0/+36mb image - that's gonna rape Wikipedia's bandwidth. I guess they're used to it though.
- vofuse, on 05/24/2009, -3/+6Looks like it would make a hellish but fun golf course.
- thehyker, on 05/24/2009, -0/+3Maganda!
- JT114881, on 05/24/2009, -0/+3I think the last one is supposed to be do you want to get high, but I have no idea what you mean by samunte.
- marx2k, on 05/24/2009, -1/+4That's what she... wait... never mind.. .carry on

- jakereilly, on 05/24/2009, -0/+2Scratch that, there's another on the left side. I guess there are more but I am too lazy to look. Poor quality image when you get up close, it's a shame.
- mksmothers, on 05/24/2009, -1/+3I read the headline as Terrance adn Phillip. Wishful thinking, but a very good photo!
- homersaysdoh, on 05/24/2009, -0/+2That would make for a great setting for the next Shadow of the Colossus game....if they make a sequel that is.
- zerohelix, on 05/24/2009, -1/+3hehe you said "but fun"
- markperia, on 05/25/2009, -0/+2I believe he was saying 'gusto mong pumunta sa Munte to get high?'
not sure though cause if you want to get high you go to Cavite not Munte. - LaurenAnn, on 05/24/2009, -0/+1'Susmarihosep.
- sagien, on 06/10/2009, -0/+1rofl.. what a great karaoke system. All in the microphone, with these images as the background.
- guyincognitoo, on 05/24/2009, -0/+1Save the file locally, took about 2 seconds.
- jakereilly, on 05/24/2009, -0/+1Yep. There is a line that goes all the way up. Easy to spot, go to the mountain line of the right, and follow it to the left until it hits the top border of the image.
- DonAlfred, on 05/24/2009, -0/+19th wonder of the world?
- Myztry, on 05/24/2009, -0/+1On one hand it looks so green and lush, and untouched by man - but on the other...
- Infekted, on 05/25/2009, -0/+1yeah it wasn't stitch properly. but its an easy fix but nothing was taken out.
- JT114881, on 05/24/2009, -0/+1I'm in Manila right now and it's a toss up between visiting this place or going to Boracay for my vacation.
- Nosnam2, on 05/25/2009, -0/+1Just a heads up, this isn't twitter. We have threaded replies here :)

- FoxFaction, on 05/25/2009, -2/+1I misread the words "Terrence" and "Phillip" out of the title, and clicked it thinking it was about south park.
- asgardshill, on 05/24/2009, -4/+29173px × 1969px + hosted on 300bps modem = fail. I'll be out weeding the garden and bringing peace to the Middle East - somebody ping me when it's done.
- wondertwins, on 05/24/2009, -4/+1that is the funniest asian joke i have ever read
- microphonix, on 05/24/2009, -4/+1I'm a Filipino myself, and I am really proud of it. But, how the ***** did this get in the front page?
- vsujohn2, on 05/24/2009, -7/+3Thats what she said.
- quinnmct, on 05/24/2009, -6/+1Did anybody else read the title and expect an article on the Terrence & Phillip show from South Park ?
- Hu99, on 05/24/2009, -7/+1Fake!
