Get the Pagged mug.When you want to claim something, you say "pags". Origins are unknown, but some suggest it is a derivative of "pagan", where as others suggest it was a misinterpretation of wanting to "peg" something. Some people say incorrectly say "bags" but it is clearly "pags". You can use it to claim something, or to abstain from something.

noun (Filipino slang, humorous)
Definition:
1. A Filipino person whose parents are from two major ethnolinguistic groups: one Tagalog, the other Bisaya.
2. A cultural fusion of the Tagalog’s gritty city survival and the Bisaya’s earthy wild energy.
3. A mashup of “pagpag” and “saging,” used comically to describe the chaotic, beautiful blend of both heritages.
Etymology / Word Origin:
Pag – from pagpag, leftover food (usually meat or chicken) scavenged from trash, cleaned, and recooked. Often associated with impoverished urban areas in Luzon, where many Tagalogs live.
Ging – from saging, the Bisaya word for banana. Bisaya people are humorously (and very inaccurately) portrayed as being so connected to nature they "goon into banana trees" — a meme-worthy exaggeration.
Together: Pag + Ging = Pagging.
A dual-core Filipino with the street smarts of pagpag and the jungle instinct of saging.
Cultural Note:
Tagalog – Typically raised in Luzon, speaking the Tagalog language as their mother tongue.
Bisaya – Refers to several Visayan-speaking groups found in Visayas and Mindanao. Those from the Visayas are considered to speak the “original” Bisaya dialect.

“Wag mo ko maliitin, pare. I’m Pagging — I can survive with pagpag and climb banana trees with my bare hands.”
