Seen in 2017 on a jeepney: 'LODI' painted across the back, in a font the record can only describe as sincere.
Lodi
'Idol', spelled backwards — Filipino slang of 2017 for a person one admires, born of the Tagalog fondness for syllable reversal and spread by Twitter and a few politicians who should not have used it. The record's entry for the word that peaked the year it was born, alongside its partner 'petmalu'.

The record notes 'lodi' is 'idol' as 'petmalu' is 'malupit', that both were declared over by 2018, and that both are still said, by uncles.
