4kizo: Stop quoting nd updateits not easy typing, esp with phone |
Re: Man Wey Dey Reason by nuwell(m): 10:37am On Jun 12, 2013 |
texanomaly: 'Come out and play' could be (depending on circumstances) be: *Show (for 'Come out'), make me relate *Show, make we yarn (This is more a word for 'discuss') Those are the ones that occur to me at the moment. The other parts are alright. And relax, you are doing splendidly, against the background you described earlier. |

4kizo: Stop quoting nd update have i ever disappointed you with updates. Atleast, i try to update once a day despite my busy schedule. If i am unable to finish the story before my birthday, i will continue. I never expected you of all people to alter this 4kizo. Well, human beings can't be satisfied no matter what, that i know. BUT STILL I FLOW. |

texanomaly: Flow leaves when I'm here. I will unfollow, so others can enjoy. L8trzi dont think that's true. It might only be some sort of coincidence. Na because of say him never update you come carry the blame put for your head. You don dey follow this tread for long which flow dey aware. So i no fit believe say flowee dey vex for you. But if e be say him dey vex den may be na biggy him dey vex for not you. No just reason to leave the tread. Oya flow make you sharp sharp wit immediate alacrity come out from where you dey com tell Texanomaly say you no rub vesline for her. 4 Likes |

texanomaly: @ econity Holly sh.t! Nice pic. Thanks for the comment. You made me laugh. I'm not sure what "rub Vaseline" means in Nigeria, but the translation in the US is something all together different. Or so I tot. btw: I go follow. Thanks again.thanks for d compliment. I i say *why you dey rub vesline* den i mean why are you vexing. It is not really a pidgen English. It some sort of way of using words that have similar words in dem to communicate, while the person being communicated to has to decipher it. |

MR MICKMEN:Lol I know what a metaphor is.I understood what he was saying. I was simply making light of another form of the same metaphor. Thanks for the heads up though. Oops that was not for me...I think that is why he used the phrase. Look at what he said and check out his profile...Once I stopped ogling his abs and pecs I read it. He seems to be an intelligent guy. |

Re: Man Wey Dey Reason by flow1759: 9:55pm On Jun 13, 2013 |
Obele looked shorter to me as we arrived. I measured that my knee was a bit below his shoulder. As we sat, i was wondering the amount of food that would fill our tanks, maybe a pyramid of Noodles would do. "Obele give us Indomie and fried Egg, and Bread and Custard" Guess who ordered for that? Man!! Man wey dey reason out food. "abi una no go like chop Hamburger and S'.perm?" He added. "which one be Hamburger and S'.perm again?" asked Bigie. "Hamburger na when you open your Agege Bread, com put Indomie and Fried Egg inside, com close am" Man explained. "S'.perm na Custard wey them put plenty powder Milk inside" He further explained. "na wetin me and my friends dey call am that time wey i dey Sok town" He added. Man was a man of so many code names, nicknames, and guynames. He could give Kulikuli and Garri a palatable name that would make it sound like a continental dish. Don't try checking up "guyname", you wouldn't find a word like that in the English dictionary. Unless of course you check it up in an Oxford Advanced learner's Pidgin dictionary. "Guyname" is a pidgin word that is said to refer to a funny name given to a Noun. A Noun is the name of a person, animal, place or thing. Abi you no go primary school? That means "Obj" is the guyname of Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, "GEJ" is the guyname of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, and "High Tension" was the former guyname of Eke Ugochukwu Peter. "Obele na powder Milk you go put for the Custard oh, and you no go let the Egg over fry oh" Man ordered. "Flow i go need that memory card wey i give you that day, i don buy another phone" Tupac said. "guy make i tell you true oh, i no see the memory card again, e don lost" I said expecting him to yell or bark at me, or both. "you don jonz oh, memory card wey that B'.itches over B'.itches video dey nahim you go lost" He said. Jonz is not the name of a French Footballer, it sometimes means someone has messed up, and it sometimes means someone is being s'.tupid, it depends on the statement it is used. "and we for use that video chop more money from Mama Ejima oh" Man said. "no worry, you know wetin dem dey write for the end of film wey be part one na" I said. "wetin?" Brainbox asked. "them go write WATCH OUT FOR PART TWO" I said and they all laughed. I was sure there would be a part two to the movie B'.itches over B'.itches. Or so i tot. Hamburger and S'.perm was served after i had Salivated so much. The Custard really looked like S'.perm, but the Noodles, fried Egg and Bread was not yet Hamburger, unless they go through the "combination" process Man explained. We all watched keenly as Man divided his Bread into two almost equal halves, took almost half of his Egg and several spoons of his Noodles, placed them carefully on one half of the Bread, and said; "as e don dey like this, the next thing na to clap your hand". "which one be clap your hand again na?" Tupac asked. "see wetin be clap your hand here" He replied, as he placed the other half of the Bread on the half with the Noodles and Fried Egg, he did that with so much dexterity. That was really a "clap" that gave life to a Hamburger. Man's Hamburger. "Man how you take sabi to do Hamburger? e make sense oh" Brainbox said after we had all clapped out our Hamburgers. "you no know say i don do Mai shai that time wey i dey Sok Town" He answered. Mai shai is not a Korean name, neither is it the name of a place in China, it is what Hausas call someone that prepares Tea(not Tramadol oh!) for commercial consumption. Noodles, Fried Egg and S'.perm or rather Custard is always in the Menu of most Mai shai(Hausa people, i spell am well abi?). Hamburger and S'.perm was really an unending meal, i couldn't finish it, the more i ate the more it multiplied, i was practically pleading with the food to finish. That day was the first day in a long while that i left a delicious meal unfinished. "Remnant" was a word that could not be found in my dictionary, and would never be. I was a perfect description of the Ibo saying; "kàmá ó gà dó n'ité, ká ó dóró nà àfò". I no go interpret that one oh!! Ask the next Ibo person you see. Instead of the food to be saved in the Pot, let it be saved in the Stomach. Na wetin e mean. 3 Likes |
