The page set up on January 11 surprisingly became an overnight sensation in the Internet after amassing over 200,000 followers in just a matter of three days.<br /><br />A parody of the popular Facebook page “Be Like Bill”, the page quickly won the hearts of Pinoys through the use a character most of us can relate with - Juan. The hilarious memes featuring the iconic Pinoy character teach local values that most of us tend to overlook.<br /><br />In an interview with FHM.com.ph, the creators of the page revealed:  “We base our memes on real-life, everyday experiences for Filipinos. I think that's why it is able to touch the Filipino community in a really personal way. Adding to that, gusto rin po namin mapaalala yung local values natin and yung ibang mga faults na nao-overlook,”<br /><br />(We want to remind them of our local values and some faults that are often overlooked.)<br /><br />Here are our top 10 picks from “Tularan si Juan” memes.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
