CONYOtics

CONYO- Not the Spanish meaning (I dare not say). Used in the Philippines as a semi-derogatory term for people who seem to be high-class and vain or conscious about their social status and speak in Taglish or broken-Tagalog mixed with English-www.urbandictionary.com

Compare a Conyo Guy way back in the 90's/ 2000's with the Conyo Guy of 2010:


* 90's: lacoste shirt, replay pants, charriol bangle, tag heuer watch, slippers (i forgot the brand) over socks, drives a car (any type will do)

*2010: paul smith shirt, 7 for all mankind pants, hermes belt, U-boat watch, Prada shoes, drives a german/ EU car.

Isn't more expensive to have taste or brand nowadays in spite of the broad selection of signature brands out there? Do you want to be branded CONYO? It doesn't matter to me as long as you dress decent and clean.

CONYOTICS is a word frequently used in the 90's to define a person and now JEJEMONS are more famous. hahaha
