Ermmmm, are you Nigerian?

That said, thanks, a lot.
I do consider NL very interesting though, okay, not as much as it used to be

goofyone: And MizMyColi, this "Forte" is a very good idea. I never really found Nairaland interesting, and didn't expect that ideas such as these could be flying around on this so Nigerian forum.

goofyone:

I'm just wondering what MizMyColi really means. Name sounds really strange.

LoL, it's just a coinage of my "very english" names.

No you are not mixing up the latin words. And yes, an empiricist actually believes learned knowledge takes priority over unlearned knowledge in drawing definite conclusions about the nature of things. Actually, I used to prefer rationalist thinking more. But things can change fairly gradually over time.

Don't I just love your open-mindedness?!

I really am not the type to praise people quickly. Trust me, I'm not. But I still must admit that your kind is very rare. Your thinking is so un-Nigerian, yet Nigerian all at the same time. Up until now, I have always met women who existed on both sides of this divide. You, on the other hand, sit right there in the middle and make yourself a perfect spouse for the religious and non-religious alike. The only thing I can pin this down to is your open heart.

Errmm, if it doesn't offend you, I like to attribute it to the Lord's doing (I'm not so sure he likes being addressed that way though)
Talking about an "open heart", opening a thread tagged "The pains of an open minded/hearted (sic) Nigerian lady" comes to mind

On other notes, I actually have a lot of questions for you. I could ask them here, if you want. But I'd prefer to send a PM and talk to you privately, if that's okay.

Yeah, PM's alot better.
I just might spew stuffs on here that'd get me massively stoned

Xcapist: How are we doing in the forte today?

goofyone:
thanks Ymodulus. I actually enjoyed your input!

On the point you disagreed, I really might just agree with you after all. Nevertheless, while reason could be incredible and liberating, it's also imperative to note that one could be so carried away by reason and eventually become the same rigid, "religiously" indoctrinated bigot one is attempting to stay away from. Atheists are quick to criticize religious zealots because they see that unwavering, unyielding stand in them, yet the same atheists do not pause for a moment to observe that they may also be falling into the same pit.

I'm actually an atheist, myself. Mostly, I think. But at the same time, I make all attempts to keep an open mind so as not to become like the same zealot I try to caution.

BoboYekini: Your PM count must be through the roof by now

BoboYekini: It's not as interesting cos I miss you, Mizmycoli.

There, I've admitted, wasn't that hard.

P.S. Your PM count must be through the roof by now
But I have a feeling you didn't reply any other than
Right?

Goodevening Bobo.

Of course you are!

goofyone:
I actually agree with that, mizmycoli.

Now I'm tongue tied.
If I say yes, you'll be like whazz she formin' now.

If I say no, you'll be like, ha! Girls can pretend!

goofyone: Mizmycoli, what's happening at the forte today?

Ummmm
Nothing much really, save for now that you're here.

Oh!
You prolly know by now that one of my threads made FP?
Two other threads I actively participated in were also on FP.
OMG, it's been Crrrazzzy! See bashin'


Someone even said, "Nut don comot for ya head"
I had the best of intentions for creating it and it just got so blown outta proportion

I thought to take cover, but then my loyal nature wouldn't let me.
I also reminded myself that I could speak English, so it began.

Ha! It left me drained, sorta......more like giving and not receiving/replenishing

It became fun, towards the end though

Oh! I should go reply one mention already!!!!!!!
Eissshh why do I keep forgetting

MizMyColi:




Goodevening Bobo.

Of course you are!

MizMyColi: Now I'm tongue tied.

BoboYekini:
Hi Sis, Where's my meal?

MizMyColi:

I'll go make it warmer right away, brb.

goofyone: @MizMyColi

I have got the same prob as well with people taking my simplest intentions out of context. Safest trip is to just ignore sha.
And do you actually feel obligated to reply every mention? Or do you only reply selectively?

And wanted to ask: what do you do for music? How do you regard music? Is it just like any other past time listening to songs or do you selectively approach your choice or kind of music? Does philosophy play any role here?

There are people's mention you see and you feel compelled to reply.
Honestly, for me, there's a thin line between selectively/obligated to, as it pertains the mentions I attended to today.

Most, I would have ignored, but then I felt like,
"What if another person sees this post and subconsciously acts on it"
Then the need to counter such arises, for me.
That's Obligation.

I always reply selectively


Hmmph.....Music
Because of my very religious upbringing, I find it really hard to flow with a song that I do not deem spiritual.

Funny though, but I've observed that I really don't have that zeal to listen to Gospel music as such anymore. Not that I now hate it, but I just don't feel like it anymore.

Before now, if I ever needed to play a secular song, I'd first subconsciously sanctify and purify my phone. With my fav gospel song at the time, but I knew things were getting worse better when I search out my phone from my bag and the next song I play is:
Ada-Ada by flavor
For the win
Kayswitch Obimo
Yanni
Then Dansaki by Lara George and Ebezina

I used to feel guilty for listening to any song that God wasn't mentioned in, but it's a lot different now.

It's almost like I can hear someone saying:
"I've lost my salvation"


Naaahhh, what I think I'm loosing is this great ability that I have, of being self righteous........

#NoMoreRants


Listening to music is more philosophical.............
I still prefer gospel songs though, they make me feel spirtual and more intune with the unseen
It's just that the ones I have are obsolete, to me.

I haven't seen any that really cuts it for me.
I just don't listen to any with the tag "gospel"

Infact! I enjoy the ones that have this secular feel to it.

So, Let's hear from you Phil.....
I'd also like to know what your interests are.

BoboYekini: Hmm, you sure know the way to my heart. *sighs*

Not Probably, you're spot on.

@Lindsey, that moment when you feeling a song and your hands are frozen, very close to your keypad and goose pimples be shooting out all over you, electrifying.
That Duet between John Legend and her is
"Spontaneous me" almost got me doing my thing here in the office (razz dance )

Those genres you mentioned sound strange, but I may get to love them eventually, seeing as my taste for music's evolving, rapidly, I'd say.

That describes me too.
My all time best's "Oceans" by hillsong

Chess: I was indifferent in school, I'm open to learn though.
Music:
F1 MotoGP: I know they have to do with car racing though.
Football: ....... I still don't know how to detect an offside though
Intelligent Women, Intellectual Convos:
Traveling:
Languages: errrmmm.....are you mixed race?
Mathematics: Financial calculations
Philosophy:
Literature: Yipeee!!! My reading culture hasn't been as sharp though
Video games: I love games (PC, Mobile) too! I just love em' just not a sucker

daveP: (enters dancing ranchoddas' aal izz well)

Jab life ho out of control
Honthon ko kar ke gol
Honthon ko kar ke gol
Seeti bajaa ke bol
Life ho out of control
Honthon ko kar ke gol
Honthon ko kar ke gol
Seeti bajaa ke bol
Aal izz well
Murgi kya jaane ande ka kya hoga
Arre life milegi ya tawee pe fry hoga
Koi na jaane apna future kya hoga!
