I think the reason we brag is because nigerians find it embarassing to say they`re poor, or to admit they were poor. Those who actually were, that is. I am not your average nigerian so i have no issues saying how things were for me personally. If i`d been rich maybe i`d be bragging too, who knows. But to an average middle class (or lower middle class) nigerian, social constructs are very important, hence the mental barrier to anything that reminds them of poverty. Regardless how many documentaries the western media wants to show.

Lol @ topic, some folks let something drop once in a while, a detail or two just to give personal depth to a discussion. But yeah I have direct experience with a non-Nigerian member who brags about having two cars, a "job" etc at 22. I guess where she comes from all of it's a big deal grin. Even went so far as to upload a pic of the "car" on her profile (a complete FAIL cos the car was looking like a fourth-hand jalopy grin). So yeah, I agree that bragging is tres LAME! Lol. But nywys, what ever bakes ur buns grin

Excuse me? Please direct your comment at MzD@rkSkin, not me. I read what she wrote, I thought it was funny so I laughed. End of story. Do you have a problem with me laughing or did laughing suddenly become a crime?
Re: Internet Bragging, Does It Expose You Or Gain You Attention? by ragdollz: 11:07am On Mar 07, 2011
On Nairaland, Inked Nerd, you should mind how u "laugh". An "lmao" at the wrong place or time can mean any of the following:

1. You're trying to ferment trouble

2. You're taking sides

3. The "joke" was really just too funny.

You seem to lay claim to no. 3, which is the worst bc it wasn't even that funny. And even if it was, it's total bad form and pure lack of foresight to be "lmao"ing. Wiser folks would just laugh without dropping a comment just to stay out of it. I guess u seem to want in on this. Be my guest. However being on NL longer than I u don't need me to break it down to u.

Sweetie, grow up. Who are you to tell me how I should or shouldn't laugh or what I should or shouldn't laugh at? If I want to laugh, I will laugh. If you don't like it, then you can go kick rocks. What I may find funny may not be what you may find funny. Because I laughed at a comment that was directed at you by MzD@rksin doesn't mean I'm taking sides. Go and reread this thread and get your head right and stop acting like I've got some sort of issue with you. Whatever personal issue or squabble you and MzD@rkSkin are having is between the two of you. This is a PUBLIC forum so if you honestly expected someone not to respond to something they considered funny, then you are sorely mistaken. I'm sure the three reasons you've presented are good and dandy in that mind of yours but none of those apply to me. If you wanna be a cyber bully be my guest, but don't do it with me. Me being on Nairlanad longer than you has nothing to do with anything you've said. Your empty threats are exactly what they are--EMPTY threats. So if you wanna "break it down to me", then go right ahead. I'm all ears [or in this case eyes].

Girl, I've been laughing my aṡṡ off since his/her last comment. He/she acts like I'm picking on him/her or something. Sheesh, some people need to just grow up. I guess in his/her mind laughing is a crime tongue

^^^^what-ever, inked nerd, save the drama 4 your bf's babymama, n stop trying so hard to sound smart/intellectual. I hear u were once  an NL wannabe-crusader/hell-raiser till u messed up and went ona self-imposed exile. Now u'v been skipping about trying to get noticed, well u finally have been tongue. However u now spend time LMAOing every dry joke u come across which I find sooo lame of u, and soo disappointing to your ex-fans grin. Anyway, with d Jamo d-sh-it as your mentor, I expect no better. Birds of a feather, as they say. Speaking of such, will that dirty pigeon salesgirl Jamo run to the shop and sweep up? The last customer has left and the dirty store aisles won't sweep themselves grin. There's a good girl grin. Heehee. Wretched Jamo, on my next expense-paid hols I'll look u up in d shop and MAKE u attend to my needs grin. Hey, u gat those red Loubotins in a size 6? No? Then freaking go find a pair in d stockroom u lazy ugly Jamo salesgirl grin!!
lol, I'm sure u hear dat all the time, heehee. Poor orphan salesgirl grin

Lmao, baby mama drama?!?! Seems like you've been watching too much BET. Like I said before and I'll say it again--If I want to laugh, I will laugh. If you don't like it, then you can go kick rocks. What I may find funny may not be what you  may find funny. Call it lame, dry, or use whatever noun you want to use to describe my perceived lack of humor. . . If that makes you happy then fine.

Awww, how cute. I see you like telling stories. Good for you kiss. Keep it up sweetie. I'm sure it'll all pay off in the long run. I have no idea what you're talking about in terms of me being a "NL wannabe-crusader/hell-raiser". Seems like you seem to spend quite a bit of time talking about me. I haven't gone on a "self-imposed exile". I work and I go to school, so when I have time I come back to Nairaland. Obviously you have way too much time on your hands for you to be going around looking for childish ways to "break it down to me" like you stated earlier. What a shame that all of this started  just because I laughed at you. I've seen kindergarten children that don't even act the way you've acted. My dear, do me a favor--go find a job, go to school, find a hobby, just as long as it will keep your childish behavior at bay. You know what. . . Fine, since you have nothing else to do, continue with your attempts to insult me. You obviously seem to be deriving some sort of sadistic pleasure from your incessant ranting. Keep 'em comin' sweetie. Feels good huh? Makes ya like a big boy/girl? Rant all you want. Insult me all you want. If that's how you get your kicks, then more power to ya wink.

I didn't brew anything. This is a PUBLIC forum for goodness sakes!! If he/she is upset then oh well for them. When did it become a crime to laugh? Should I censor myself because I don't wanna hurt his/her feelings or because he's having a personal issue with another member? Smmfh, if he/she wants to explode over this whole thing then he/she can be my guest. I can only imagine what ragdollz will do outside of Nairaland if someone so much as rolls their eyes because they didn't like something he/she said. I've volunteered at elementary schools and the children don't even act the way ragdollz is acting.
