Taylor Marie Joy Alison "Inang Kulot" Dimagiba Finlay Batumbakal Swift 

The aforementioned name is a satirical/stereotypical name for singer Taylor Swift in the Philippines. The extra names were added to ridicule how many of the people also have such long names. The whole name has since then become a meme in the Filipino media, in which people use the name ironically to refer to the singer.

Taylor Alison Finlay Swift are all from her legal name, the additional names and their origins are stated below. The joke originally started as "Taylor Marie Joy Batumbakal Swift", and since then, many other names have been added.

Marie and Joy are commonly found in girls' names, where Marie comes from Mary/Maria, the most common name in the country; Joy is stereotypically associated with service workers, such as nurses, cashiers, and stewardesses.

Inang Kulot is an allusion to her curly locks. Inang means "Mother" in a familiar tone, Kulot simply means "curls".

Dimagiba is fairly an uncommon last name, though it is a reference to an old joke played in radios. Dimagiba, short for 'hindi (not) magiba (breakable)' means "invincible", or "never broken". full joke: look up "Short pinoy joke english class"

Batumbakal (lit. lodestone, bato = stone, bakal = metal) is also an uncommon last name, though it does hold a deep native origin. Like Dimagiba, it seems to have originated from a joke, albeit obscure. full joke: look up "batumbakal filipino joke"

Altogether, it sounds like the name of the girl you'd play chinese garter together in the neighborhood alleys.

A school in Fall River, ma that half the students hate and the other half likes. The teachers are always assholes especially the higher ups. They have pointless rules and run the school like its soviet russia. Youll get a detention for not having an id and get screamed at for taking a soda from the lunch room. If your siblings are planning on attending, they should really reconsider. They switch your weeks for no reason, and if you want to get switched back they ignore you. Also there sports are awful. Durfee is better.
John - I got supended for laughing. And then i got screamed at for drinking water at lunch without a tray.

Dan- wtf where do you go to school?

Dan- haha sucks for you I cn have fun at durfee!
