Stories of success are pretty tough but don't need to be MMK dramatic. In fact, while they are tough and embarrassing, it will be very comical when you look back at it later. 2 Broke girls depicted struggles from poverty.

1. Noticing the differences is an offense to friendships

Most comedy films or TV shows who have interracial casts have light takes on racial jokes in which they are commonly inoffensive.  2 Broke Girls have healthy interracial casts and not only that, they also have a good take on sociopolitical matters on greyscales such as gender fluidity. Max and Caroline have a Korean boss who is always the source of their comic relief at his dispense. A Ukrainian horny chef. An old-age African-American cashier. An extravagant polish entrepreneur friend and a gay Latino as a waiter. The thing is you never know who you will work for and who you end up with. Noticing the differences no matter how you want to be politically correct is offensive itself. You are depriving them of a natural friendship that they need

2. Not because you're poor you have to be cheap

"I'm not a cheap whore, I'm just poor."

-Caroline Channing

Max and Caroline have gone through odd jobs to collect money and made every possible means to produce money, legally. In which it is a miracle they are not drug traders or hookers. Remember that time when they mistook Sophie was running prostitution? The easy money is always seductive if you want out of poverty, but you know what is waiting at the end of bread crumb trails. If you are to be successful, be successful with self-respect.

3. Every corner is an opportunity.

Max and Caroline made a pop-up sale in the bathroom. They chased their way into a party to go after Martha Stewart so she can taste their cupcake. They rented a recently vacated crime scene place to be their own shop. Caroline shoved the cupcake to her Aunt's throat. They discovered a window from storage to be their cupcake store. Opportunity sometimes shies away but sometimes you have to chase it. 

4. Do it, worry about the money later.

Whenever an episode ends, it ends with the cashier ding computing the money they earned in an episode. At times, they even account for having debts on some episodes their savings bloom. You see, even poor people have the right to enjoy things in life. They also sacrifice what is left of them to make something happen even if it is party irrelevant. When Caroline encouraged Max to a pastry school even if they are going to lose their savings and that they didn't have enough money to sustain it. Caroline worked part-time for the school, by the way, to make ends meet. Particularly, there were a lot of instances where money isn't the central element of their lives.

5. You can say mean things to your friend's face but don't when their back is on you.

In season 3, Max was hit by the possible things technology can do to ruin relationships when she accidentally sent "I'm so sick of you" intending to Caroline and not sending it to the entire diner family. Caroline felt betrayed because it was the same thing that her former friends when she was rich, have done to her. Max was apologetic and even threw her phone at the frying fries to prove that she was terribly sorry. 

"I always say terrible things to you, why are you upset about this?"

"Because you say them to my face, Max."

6. The Comfort Room might be the most convenient place to talk about things

Noticeably, a lot of big things happened in a small room. A lot of big breaks happen in a small space. In Season 1, they stalked Martha Stewart to the toilet to endorse their cupcake. A lot of emotional conversation happens when one of the girls drags someone or each other to the bathroom. Han and his mom had an honest talk while passing a joint in the CR. For most people, the Comfort Room is the smallest place on earth where you can be real with yourself.

7. You have to be assertive and mean even if you look uncultured if you are being stepped on

Both Caroline and Max have distinctive flaws that they carry as scars. Caroline's luxurious life was a sham and Max is white trash. 2 broke girls-only shows that not even someone who has a degrading past should be ridiculed, especially if they are making effort to revert to their past lives. The show and the girls teach you to stand up for yourself and for someone like how Max stood up for Caroline even. risking the approval of her boyfriend's parents. They do this while insulting Han.

8. No job is small

The good thing about western culture is that there is always room for development which creates multitudes of jobs and money opportunity schemes no matter how odd they may seem. Caroline and Max applied for a wide range of jobs like being drug test subjects, nannies, a cleaner and even holding official positions. There is no small job. Every legit job is as important as whatever's job is higher in the pyramid.

9. Being poor isn't an excuse not to be charitable. 

You can be charitable and do little things that you may come up with. People who have lesser things are much more generous than people who have too much. This is because of the true power of empathy. They know how it feels like to have less or nothing. In 2 broke girls, they aided people who have less in terms of money or by solely their skills. Also, remember when Caroline convinced a beggar to invest his remaining dollars in their burgeoning company? I don't know, but that doesn't count. Or maybe, who knows?

10. Cut corners of your life so you can fund your dream.

Every choice is a sacrifice, a never-ending one. 

      Since the campaign for elections, the world that the Philippines revolved to gradually became remastered A Clockwork Orange. The elements of the genre have been sewn on the leadership of the new administration. Three of his obsession; Sex, Drugs, and Violence. 

      Seemingly like a macabre gangster movie erupted from the rotting brainwork of President Rodrigo Duterte. If his presidency was a show in the Philippines it would be graded by Rotten Tomatoes in poor reception. It is humiliating and degrading to the honor of the Filipino people. Full of hot lies caught red-handed. 

      The only promise that he kept was, "It will be bloody." In 100 days of Duterte's leadership, he single-handedly (with the help of his mouth) crumbled the small dignity left to the country. 

SEX

                Long before the presidential elections, he was known to be a womanizer and claimed to 'love women'. we didn't know long before that what he meant by that was the women who are submissive to him. The 72-year-old president, a dirty old man, still lives in barbaric ages where women reserve no sociopolitical rights. When he joked about the raped and slain Australian missionary about being entitled to go first of the raping line because he is the mayor. The sheep followers, they are quick to defend as people are quick to judge the presidential candidate. 
      As for them, his ugly remarks were just a joke. A bad one. You know it's like a clown's job to make people laugh but ends up scaring the audience. Since maybe it was never intended to induce humor at all. We should have known better. It should have warned us about the oozing machismo that he will trample women and objectify them.

      He kept picking up fights with women who dare opposes him.

      It didn't end there even when he promised that he will behave his potty mouth if he became president. During a presscon (an activity he quite had a liking to) when he catcalled a GMA reporter while interviewing him, Mariz Tima. Turns out, it was just an expression and not a sexual assault! Which was purely lambasted because he crafted a city ordinance about sexual harassment. The city ordinance copy about gay discrimination and sexual harassment was the one I used for my undergrad thesis. 
      What's more, he called US Ambassador Goldberg gay. When CJ Sereno sent him a formal letter after he name-dropped members of the judiciary, he vowed to destroy her. When it comes to sexism, his mouth will push borders. He slut-shamed De Lima, calling her an adulterer and immoral out of the blue. He kept pushing the idea of De Lima's tryst and even pressuring the senate body to produce the alleged sex video. 
      In which case, a sex video in which De Lima, was allegedly naked totally but forgot to remove her eyeglasses. 
It's all his impulses talking like his brain was transplanted to his wrinkly, smallest brain with a fragile ego. Yep, because how dare this women undermine him, right? Jeezuz Christ, are we this low now? Aguirre, Alvarez, and a few statesmen pressure everyone that the sex video has to be shown like it was a very essential detail of the ongoing case hurled against De Lima. Why are Duterte and his troll army so obsessed with somebody else's sex lives and Duterte's interest in a woman's vagina? There's what we call porn-site you pervs, not porn senate!

DRUGS

      Do you remember chemistry? You break down the chemicals to their basic form. Drugs. Since the vignette of his pre-campaign period, he kept on babbling about ending drugs. Drugs, Drugs, Drugs yadda-yadda-yabadoo-dadda. It's like that's the only problem we are obsessed about. Okay, yes, drugs are the largest problem in the Philippines. Like chemistry, let's break this down. Why is there a widespread of drugs? Because we allow them. How? Some people are willing to be involved in drug activities. Because they feel like selling drugs. No. It's because of the rising unemployment. 
      The nature of the drug problem in the Philippines roots in poverty. Because even if it is dangerous, someone who is desperate to earn money will eat their conscience away and will sell drugs. Duterte fails to see this because he is busy licking his own butt and of china. The problem with his campaign against drugs is overall ineffective. He is shredding the twigs but not uprooting the whole tree. To statistics, more than 3,000 has claimed by death and more than 10,000 have surrendered and swayed by the 'Nanlaban-Kaya-Binaril' trend. But none-- none of any drug lords were convicted.
       Maybe he isn't really an anti-drug advocate but an anti-shabu. Isn't it that shabu is a poor man's cocaine? So he dissolves the impoverished instead. That is probably part of his anti-poverty program, no?  Remember when he name-dropped five PNP generals as narco cops, where are they now? Oh, let's not forget Peter Lim. I heard he was shipped back to China. Is the drug war really successful when all we do is sweep them under the carpet?

VIOLENCE

      When Duterte came to claim the throne, the grim reaper went on a tour roaming around killing drug suspects both allegedly and mistakenly armed with packing tapes and cardboard pieces. His take on "It will be bloody" has had its toll when he enticed the public, giving them permission to wield the law in their own idiot hands. This form they call cleansing is nothing but a panapathanogenic means to bring out evil desires against fellow human beings. Hello, Purge! 

      Violence over the comment sections suddenly erupted thanks to Duterte's antics. It became the Duterte Fans Club's norm to retort opposing parties and individuals, calling them names, threatening them death, and rape. How did a country become frustrated to rid of crime but does not acknowledge peaceful processes as important, too? 

      How can they praise extra-judicial killings involving innocent people yet they call them 'collateral damage? In this irritating case, that the collateral damage caused by the drug war seemingly becomes less valuable than those victims of drug use, addiction and production. Is the innocent life of a 5-year-old claimed as collateral an irrelevance than to a 5-year-old raped and killed by a drug addict?  Does the 5-year deserve to die? All you can hear is "Kill!Kill!Kill!", immortalizing a death metal album and a feeling that we are all in a nightmarish concert by Marilyn Manson. Yeesh.

We sincerely apologize for our body cleaning itself, preparing our uterus to deliver mankind.
We, women, would like to apologize for having breasts--
--and lack thereof.
That we distract you with it.

the stereotypes dictate us.
We, women, apologize for keeping you in the friend zone.
That male-to-female relationship shall never end in friendship.
What if we make friends with you, and you are expecting us to end up in a relationship or otherwise intercourse to compensate for the rejection? 
That every kind gesture you give us should not be taken alone as kindness but a gesture of affection.
That we are blind to choosing another over you.

We, women, apologize for trying to be superior to you. When in actuality, you are just so used to us being inferior for centuries and now so we are stepping up for equality, we actually are claiming superiority. 
We are so sorry that we are so ambitious to have the same equal rights as you are. We should be contented just living in a man's world.
We apologize sincerely to you, men, that you think the world is just revolving around you. 
We apologize that we take what should have been ours. 
We apologize for being created as a woman and you know what? Just suck it up because as long as there are humans with vaginas being born or made, we will never waver.
