"I felt I was sweating like a
Christmas goat."
I'm pretty sure a foreigner didn't write this.

Whatever man!!

mychaella: This article was cooked. The mix of past and present tense in the same sentence or paragraph was appalling. The use of metaphors wasn't convincing in the least bit. Plus, are we so starved of 'oyinbos' that we would fawn over them in the streets?

U would b surprised!!

ochukoccna: Very interesting article
Good to read something refreshing from an oyibo which lacked their unmasked bias
Yet Star beer ain't 1 litre
Also you wonder why ish like this dont grace the front page

did u actually read everytin?menh,it got me bored

Ok..ok..ok.. that brings me to d question begging 4 answer: What's d origin or who originated that phrase.."sweating like christmas goat"?

[quote author=trent9002WWWfelt I was sweating like a

Does that make them Americans? If someone spends time in Nigeria and socialize they will pick up Nigerian slangs.Does that make them Nigerian? I found the blog to be interesting and entertaining and never for a moment doubted it was written by a foreigner...and from that part of the US.Many of the things mentioned would not be noticed by a Nigerian.

@OP NA U FIND TROBLE.....Haters were peacefuly and silently hating until you gave them something to think about.

Fabulous.

It is like Lagos people don't have name 4 Ube.hey make i tell u Abino and bleaching mama no be with o!

I believe ur Oyibo narrated her experience to you and you 'helped' her write it. If she wrote this herself, she's soooo Nigerian. Good to hone ur writing skills but still a long way to go if you want to sound western.

Nice stuff though some doubt
