<p>The fan-favorite &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/itsshowtime" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><u><em>It&#x27;s Showtime</em></u></strong></a>&quot; segment &#x27;Laro Laro Pick&#x27; introduces us to ordinary Madlang People from all walks of life. Every batch of contestants definitely has a few standouts whether because of their compelling life stories or their effortless humor that can keep up with the punchlines of the comedy icon herself, Vice Ganda.  </p><p>And then there are contestants who are extra ‘kulit&#x27; that they trigger Meme Vice&#x27;s &#x27;gigil&#x27; reactions, just like the players featured in this Kapamilya Update video. </p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=476&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Freel%2F1303253791363703%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=267&amp;t=0" width="267" height="476" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><p>If this had been an actual classroom setup with Vice as the teacher and player Jonalyn as the student, the class might have been dismissed early as Vice&#x27;s stress level would have peaked. During the ‘It’s Giving’ round, where all answers started with the letter “B,” Jonalyn was asked to complete the lyrics to Kim Chiu&#x27;s song, “Sa classroom may ________,” and answered “blackboard,” which made sense, except that it wasn’t the missing word.  </p><p>Vice kept repeating the question, giving Jonalyn unlimited retries, only to get more ‘gigil’ with her next answers, &quot;bench&quot; and &quot;books.&quot; She eventually ‘kicked’ Jonalyn out of the classroom—well, the studio—and called her a &quot;masamang espiritu&quot; that needed to be cast out. </p><p>In another episode, Meme Vice looked one question away from filing for &#x27;vacation leave&#x27; from all the chaos while talking to birthday celebrant Obet, who spoke so fast that it felt like he needed subtitles or an interpreter. The conversation got so confusing that Vice &#x27;collapsed&#x27; onto the game floor, although thankfully, Vhong Navarro and Jhong Hilario stepped in to help ‘translate’ Obet’s statements. But even that wasn’t enough to save Meme from Obet’s headache-giving answers. When asked about his birthday wish, Obet replied, &quot;Ngayon?&quot; which sparked Vice&#x27;s &#x27;gigil&#x27; as she sarcastically reacted, &quot;Hindi, bukas!&quot; </p><p>And then a teacher named Jo sent Vice into stunned silence after accidentally referring to her as &quot;tatay&quot; during their conversation. Vice joked that she had already accepted being called &quot;sir&quot; sometimes, but &quot;tatay&quot; was a different level, considering that she was a wearing a dress and a very feminine hairstyle. &quot;Nakipag-away ako sa dressing room para sa buhok ko, ang ending, tatay pa rin ang tingin mo sa akin,&quot; she jestingly complained. &quot;Gumawa pa ako ng pelikula na ang title &#x27;Call Me Mother&#x27; tapos tatay pa rin?&quot;  </p><p>Next up, player Ralph, who awakened not only Vice&#x27;s &#x27;gigil&#x27; and frustration but her full-on defense mode. During the ‘It’s Giving’ round, Ralph answered with so much intensity that he almost sounded angry. Amused, Vice glared at him and said, &quot;Tatakutin mo ako? Para bang sisindakin pa ako.&quot; Her co-hosts burst into laughter, with Vhong reminding everyone that fear doesn’t work on Vice, &quot;Kahit nasa ibang bansa [kami] lumalaban &#x27;yan kaya huwag mong sisindakin &#x27;yan.&quot; </p><p>We also had a good laugh with player Kurt, whose humor was surprisingly synced with Meme Vice’s wit so well that they had a naturally hilarious banter. During the &#x27;It&#x27;s Giving&#x27; round, Kurt struggled when asked who sang “Hawak Kamay.&quot; He completely blanked and just blurted out “Si ano!&quot; to which Vice fired back, &quot;Sabihin mo! Hindi &#x27;yung puro ka turo!&quot; </p><p>Even after time ran out, Vice still tried to help by giving a clue that the singer’s first name is “Yeng,” but that didn&#x27;t help at all. Kurt answered “Yeng Tolentino,” followed by “Yeng Guaio (the celebrated basketball coach!),” then “Yeng JV” (a mismatch with singer-actor Young JV), and even “Yeng Constancia,” much to Vice Ganda&#x27;s &#x27;gigil&#x27; and the amusement of everyone in the studio. </p><p>We all know that these &#x27;gigil&#x27; moments from Vice are all just part of the punchline, and if anything, they only make ‘Laro Laro Pick’ even more entertaining to watch.
