Funny and suitable for young kids. A monkey and the turtle. A monkey and a turtle were once friends. One day, they saw a banana-plant floating on the water. They decided to split it and planted each half. Monkey thought the top part was better, so he planted it and watched in dismay as it died. Turtle planted the roots and was rewarded with a fine tree with fruits. But since he could not climb to get the bananas himself, he asked Monkey to get it for him.The cunning simian, however, ate all of the fruits! In retaliation, Turtle put sticks around the tree and then tricked Monkey to go down, killing him. Monkey’s friends then tried to exact revenge on Turtle, who deceived them into throwing him into the lake, his home. Would this be considered as one to you? Cheers. Heard it from my bestfriend who is pinoy.

Turn your shirt inside out if you are lost in the woods/forest because probably a tikbalang is playing on you.
