na2day?: I'll take compliment for 1000, Alex! sometimes it is best to plan ahead Hmmm, Wonderful experience you say? Then why am I suddenly reminded of that spider and fly poem. . . *flashback Naija Movie style with the godawful background music* Will you walk into my parlor?" said the Spider to the Fly, 'Tis the prettiest little parlor that ever you did spy; The way into my parlor is up a winding stair, And I have many curious things to show you when you are there." . . . and we all know how that ended. |

Sisi Jinx: taloje Alex? Sisi Jinx: thank God i dont know the poem. now on a more serious note, are u saying i am a fly who u r luring into ur web trap? |
Re: Men Don't Think African Culture Is The Best. They Like It Because It Favors Them by SisiJinx: 6:01pm On Dec 29, 2008 |
na2day?: Toloje Alex?!! Did I hear the question right? Oh. . . only the best game shows evah!!! Duh!
You don't know the poem hmm, okay maybe after you read it. . . You will know who the lurer and who the luree is here in this sitch Please pay close attention to the last verse. . . stanza. . . whatever. *Clears throat, then begins to recite poem in the most dramatic fashion ever* “Will you walk into my parlor?” Said a spider to a fly; “’Tis the prettiest little parlor That ever you did spy. The way into my parlor Is up a winding stair, And I have many pretty things To show you when you’re there.” “O no, no,” said the little fly, “To ask me is in vain; For who goes up your winding stair Can ne’er come down again.” “I’m sure you must be weary With soaring up so high; Will you rest upon my little bed?” Said the spider to the fly. “There are pretty curtains drawn around; The sheets are fine and thin; And if you like to rest awhile, I’ll snugly tuck you in.” “O no, no,” said the little fly, “For I’ve often heard it said They never, never wake again, Who sleep upon your bed.” Said the cunning spider to the fly, “Dear friend, what shall I do To prove the warm affection I’ve always felt for you? I have, within my pantry, Good store of all that’s nice; I’m sure you’re very welcome— Will you please to take a slice?” “O no, no,” said the little fly, “Kind sir, that cannot be; I’ve heard what’s in your pantry, And I do not wish to see.” “Sweet creature,” said the spider, “You’re witty and you’re wise; How handsome are your gauzy wings, How brilliant are your eyes. I have a little looking-glass Upon my parlor shelf; If you’ll step in one moment, dear, You shall behold yourself.” “I thank you, gentle sir,” she said, “For what you’re pleased to say, And bidding you good-morning now, I’ll call another day.” The spider turned him round about, And went into his den, For well he knew the silly fly Would soon be back again; So he wove a subtle web In a little corner sly, And set his table ready To dine upon the fly. He went out to his door again, And merrily did sing, “Come hither, hither, pretty fly, With pearl and silver wing; Your robes are green and purple, There’s a crest upon your head; Your eyes are like the diamond bright, But mine are dull as lead.” Alas, alas! how very soon This silly little fly, Hearing his wily, flattering words, Came slowly flitting by; With buzzing wings she hung aloft, Then near and nearer drew— Thought only of her brilliant eyes, And green and purple hue; Thought only of her crested head— Poor foolish thing! At last Up jumped the cunning spider, And fiercely held her fast. He dragged her up his winding stair, Into his dismal den Within his little parlor—but She ne’er came out again! And now, dear little children Who may this story read, To idle, silly, flattering words, I pray you, ne’er give heed. Unto an evil counselor Close heart and ear and eye; And take a lesson from this tale Of the spider and the fly. So now you know who is who. . . |

@ Sisi Jinx thanks for the dramatic poem, i can see clearly now that i am the fly and u are the spider but there is a difference though, in my case, i am willing to take the risk and test that web of urs, if i get caught na me go find trouble but if not, i am smart like that. so i will take ur offer bcuz u are worth the risk |
Re: Men Don't Think African Culture Is The Best. They Like It Because It Favors Them by SisiJinx: 4:59am On Dec 30, 2008 |
Rotflmao! No cheating!! Read the poem and put it in the right context. How can you be the fly here when a blind person can see your spider web tightening around my neck? If I let you have your way, the next thing will be someone doing this over me. |
Re: Men Don't Think African Culture Is The Best. They Like It Because It Favors Them by na2day2(m): 8:14am On Dec 30, 2008 |

Re: Men Don't Think African Culture Is The Best. They Like It Because It Favors Them by SisiJinx: 11:47pm On Dec 30, 2008 |
na2day?: Don Allah, ina roko. . . ni bana so wahala wurin nan. Funny, how you didn't think that maybe just maybe the blame lies on your Yoruba made web. I hear you lot (i.e the men) are the kings of papapaism! now on a more serious note, i am the fly, u are the spider, i will only accept that i am the spider if that smile of urs was swinging a wedding bell Wedding bells eh? Hmmm, I hear a bell but for some inexplicable reason this is the image that that comes to mind Lalalalalalalalala |
Re: Men Don't Think African Culture Is The Best. They Like It Because It Favors Them by na2day2(m): 12:46am On Dec 31, 2008 |
Sisi Jinx: let me clear up a few things, number one, yorubas dont make webs(they are not that smart)[s]the yoruba fire is about to descend on my head[/s] number two, i am not yoruba, number three, what the heck is papapaism? Sisi Jinx: no that bell comes after the wedding bell has rung. the bell u seem to see is the bell that will ring when u knock out all the opposition (other babes) trying to snatch me from u |

At the end of the day, it's all So Acid my darling, relax okay? na2day?: What are you then? Papapaism means fast, fast, chop, chop, get it done as soon as possible. Quantity not Quality. . . gerrit? no that bell comes after the wedding bell has rung. the bell u seem to see is the bell that will ring when u knock out all the opposition (other babes) trying to snatch me from u You mean I gotta knock other girls out? Hmmm. . . I don't know about that. See, I have a strict no knocking out girls. . . only boys policy. And I am way too lazy to fight. . .
