    TFK Hats (The Fisherman’s Kid) by BJ Cabaltera

    This was a common folk saying in BJ’s community when he was a kid which translates in Tagalog as “Hayaan mo, matutulad lang sila sa tatay nila sa pangingisda”, spoken in somewhat of a degrading tone. His father was a fisherman, and these words did bring some stings for the young fisherman’s kid.
