Family / Re: Today I Saw Another Man Cry by bummyla(m): 12:48pm On Apr 13
Hmmm! You might be right, because he kept saying under his breath "I no go fit bear this thing any more!"


NPFLADMIN:
He cried, not because he was weak, but because he has been strong for too long.

May God help us.

Family / Today I Saw Another Man Cry by bummyla(m): 9:15pm On Apr 12
Today I saw another man cry



Today I saw another brother! Another friend! Another man! Another husband! Another Son! Another Father sob quietly behind his office building for 20 minutes because he job was threatened! His only source of livelihood was shaken and he felt so helpless but to sob in agony.


This was not the first time I saw a man cry at his place of work, because his job was threatened and this might not be the last. Things that our fathers go through on a daily basis and most of us know nothing about them.

While I watched he cry, I kept asking myself, does this young man have a wife or a knife?

Does he have a companion at home, someone he would share his fears and insecurities when he gets back to the house tonight! Or does he have a knife that will strip him of his last dignity if he ever shows any sign of weakness.

Would he be loved at home or condemned too!

Well! I will never know! But my brother seems to be a fighter!

After sobbing for like 20 minutes, he washed his face, left and bought for himself a plate of beans and bread, plus two chilled sachet water, I would have asked him for one of the water if the circumstances were right.

After he finished eating, he washed his face for the second time, adjusted his tie, made sure his shirt was perfectly tucked in, with his shoulders high and his head raised up, he went back to his office as if nothing happened!



No matter what you are going through in Life, biko eat something my brethren

Family / Re: Can You Advise Someone To Marry In This Room by bummyla(m): 10:25pm On Mar 14
One of the biggest mistake I made in marriage was not to allow my ex-wife live for at least 6 months in my face-you-I-slap-you apartment in the ghetto.

She visited me there, I did not allow her to cook, nor bath, nor sleep over there, that's why she did not appreciate a bungalow in a gated estate. Where we have a spacious compound, clean borehole water and well. Better than average power supply.

If she had lived in the ghetto and fought some of those girls there, she would have appreciated GOD more the blessings.

Most young millionaires live in one room apartment, till they get married

I once lived in a community in Lagos, once a married woman is pregnant and about to put to bed, the husband will enforce that she declares who owns the baby or she will die in labor. My land lady nearly died, before she quickly confessed, some sacrifices were made, the baby died at birth. My other neighbor died because she refused to confess. One escaped because the husband decided not to enforce his rights, their first daughter looks very well like the wife's calabar ex-lover, even the tribal marks could not distort the resemblance

Family / Re: Would You Rather Raise Twin Boys Or Twin Girls? by bummyla(m): 6:53pm On Mar 09
But the mother is not complaining! 95% of women that have breast cancer later in life is because they did not breast feed their babies for long.

My brother, it was a matter of necessity. My boy was delivered via CS and the mother barely slept through the night due to his sucking nature.

I don't understand men stopping their kids from sucking their mother's breasts! It sounds awkward to me! I still don't comprehend it! Now you have stopped him, how many times will you suck those breast? Kids breast feeding prevents breast cancer! And it raises well behaved children not juvenile delinquents. Let the Children suck biko



kindmman:

So true, my boy nearly finished the milk in her mom's breasts until I forced him to stop. The boy didn't even know I left the breasts so he could have something to suck and didn't want to leave any milk for the one coming after him.

Oga take your son to see an ENT doctor if he breaths through the mouth a lot, that means his nostrils are obstructed!


Either the holes are too small and gets inflammated easily


I have had two surgeries to widen the opens in my nostrils so I can breath well through the nose, not through the mouth like I do some time
Health / Re: My Son Looks Like 7up's Fido Dido, Help!!!! by bummyla(m): 12:40am On Feb 29
Oga there is nothing wrong with your son! Abeg dont give him any medication to grown fat! My late younger brother was like that! When he was younger he was very fat as he became a teenager he became very slim and tall.


I took an injection to make me add weight over 20 years ago, now I dey fight to loss the weight but no way, I cant do a lot of things because of my obesity.


Your son is good! Maybe you need to have a lot of Father and Son moments with him now!


Lastly my neighbor took her friends advise, and gave her two years old son some multivitamins to make him add flesh, the small boy became over weight and died of breathlessness before his 7th birthday.

So, your boy is good!

He just need more of your Father and Son quality time

My former room mate Monday from Kogi state, I have watched him stopped rain twice! I have seen him chew and swallow bottles!


One of our former staff Saheed, one of the best staff I have had! He always have a black ring in his pocket, which he puts on before a fight, and for the ring to work you have to beat him first and he has to cry for help.

He slapped 2 okada men into convulsion, He slapped another staff too into convulsion and he spent 3 weeks at the hospital, we had not choice to to let him go!

Romance / Re: Babe Insists Her Toaster Is Finer Than Her Guy, Please Judge by bummyla(m): 11:58pm On Feb 15
Where are the pictures?



Supremedrizzy:
So I was joking around with my babe last night and mentioned something about having finer girls than her in my DM, she rebutted and insisted she had finer guys too asking her out.

I asked her to send me a picture lets compare, so she sent some pictures of the toaster which I told her point blank that the guy wasn't fine. I simplely explained to her that I see my self as 5/10 so any guy I'm finer than is not handsome. She kept insisting that the guy was finer so we decided to let neautrals be the judge. I will post pictures of two guys without specifying which one is actually mine to avoid bias.

So please help us judge.... this is for fun bad belle and insults are welcome as per nairaland tradition.

Below are the pictures of the first guy.

I don't like things sticking on my palms and fingers, when they stick, I wash them off. That's why I don't like soft swallows, I like the semi-hard ones, soft ones stick on your fingers and palms



LenaJon:
Why please, if I may ask?

I'll understand if it's two or three times. But 10 times or even more, is just too much for me though.

cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy I never saw my siblings unclothedness, because we all had our room, but I went to boarding school, we all had a common bathroom, in Uni stayed off campus, we had a very large bathroom that 10 people can comfortably had their bath, so we were always sharing the bathroom, but when I went to marry my ex-wife, they were about 11 in their house, 3 ladies and 8 young men , their parent are late and they share a room and parlor! Shame no dey gree me enter inside their house, because they were all nudist if they accept you as one of them. Somebody was always naked. Which was part of the problem we had in our marriage, she never closed the windows when she was changing her clothes, she still wants to be naked around her siblings.



U09ce:


It wasn't practised in my university. Infact, it's weird for someone to expose their unclothedness even to a same gender, except if there's a marital relationship

I served in Kogi state! This particular lady was always inviting corpers to come and dine in her place. The first day I decided to go! I was served food, as I properly trained man, I said "Thank You Ma"

To thank you host for a meal is considered an insult to the host according to the lady! I did not know! Nobody told me!

3 Times I thanked her she pretended not to hear me.

After I finished eating the fufu, I needed water to wash my hand, I tried calling her attention, but she ignored me, after a while I washed my hand inside the soup bowl, and all hell let loose!

She was very mad, that I came to her house to disrespect her, by saying "Thank Yous" And to crown up the insult, I washed my hand inside the bowl of soup!

She nearly attacked me physically.

To wash your hands inside the plate means "The food was horrible"

My first culture shock in nigeria was in benue state.
Visited a friend of mine and it was time for dinner, they brought swallow (fufu) and a bowl of water so we could wash our hands. I noticed that my friend will wash his hands inside the bowl every 2 minutes while eating, it became irritating to me i had to giveup eating lol. I was like na like so una dey do for this place?
