Noynoying and the Frogs

Noynoying (pronounced noy-noy-YING ) is a protest gimmick in the form of neologism which critics of Philippine President Benigno Aquino III have used to call attention to what they claim is the "do-nothing" work ethic and inaction of Aquino over emergency response and rising oil prices. The term is in reference to Aquino's nickname, Noynoy.

Since its first documented usage in October 2011, the term was used as a form of protest against Aquino, wherein protesters performed "Noynoying" poses such as sitting idly while resting their heads on one hand and doing nothing.
The term was first documented in the October 8, 2011, issue of Manila Standard Today. In their opinion article, columnists Karl Allan Barlaan and Christian Cardiente criticized Aquino's slow response over typhoons Pedring and Quiel, which left parts of Luzon island, including Metro Manila, in a state of calamity

"Noynoying plays on the widespread perception that Mr. Aquino – who is widely known by the nickname Noynoy – might not be the most hands-on president to have led the Philippines. Since being elected in a landslide in 2010, Mr. Aquino has sometimes been caught laughing it up with celebrities instead of attending to the impact of typhoons and other disasters," Wall Street Journal said in the article ‘Noynoying’ Poses Challenge to Philippine Leader.



In a press conference, Aquino declared that the public should not pay attention to Noynoying, adding that the term is a product of people who have nothing good to say. "Papaano mo ipapakita sa ayaw tumingin? Paano mo iparirinig sa ayaw makinig? Kung masaya silang ginagawa nila 'yun, nasa kanila 'yon." ("How will you show it to people who refuse to look? How will you express it to people who refuse to listen? If they are happy with what they are doing, it is okay.")

I just remembered i already did the noynoying position in 2008 when i was in Kinogawa-Onsen, Japan. And  some of my frogs are doing also noynoying.
