Studies have shown that there is actually a limit to the number of people an individual can maintain a stable social relationship with. That limit is usually around the 150 mark even though experts say it ranges from 100 to 230. It is referred to as Durban's Number. Above this range more restrictive rules have to be put in place for the group relationship to be stable.
In social media one sees individuals with friends that number in the thousands and one's suspicion is that there is no way in hell for all those friendships to be genuine or solidly built. Many are just acquaintances or random people with no real claim to friendship.
This is also the case for BBM.

Wizee: Where u dey go

Over-ginger dey worry the OP.

Habeebpain is definitely reeling in pain after that punch from Tex

PS3 mini? Who comes up with these names anyway?

geeez: The Minister of Aviation looks very cosmetic and that's exactly her approach to aviation business in Nigeria. Remodeling airports which I think should be concessioned and not addressing the real issues like safety and security of passengers. Even the runways are in pitiable states. She prefers some cosmetic surgery as treatment for a skin disease rather than address the underlying cause. It's a shame

What is needed is for the remodelling of the airports to be carried out properly. Shallow and vitriolic comments like yours are uncalled for. Suggest a better way forward, if you must, without insults.

So in order to show that Nigeria is great we must lambaste our Ghanaian neighbors? The amount of jingoism one sees about these days is disgusting. Let readers know that not all Nigerians are this shallow. BAWSS1 and many other sensible citizens are proud Nigerians and do not endorse this deplorable behavior.

We love you Ghana. Haters can jump off 3MB for all we care.

Down with the imperialists! They are only interested in keeping Africa in bondage, let's chase them out of Mali and give Islamic fanatics a free hand. We all know that religious fanaticism that involves destruction of indigenous heritage sites, savage implementation of sharia law and the complete stifling of basic human rights is way preferable. Down with the imperialists I say.

Nonsense

Is the new national carrier going to be government funded?

omenka: Perhaps lunacy has a diferent meaning in the dictionary u read. And who told you the proposals seek to ban assault riffles only? Have u taken a single second to go thruogh the proposed legislation befor coming on here to spew trash? Pple like you are the reason why progress is difficlt in this world, feeding exclusively off the garbage churned out by the perveted media. Do you have any idea what terms of reference are contained in the proposed 'background checks' for potential rifle owners? Pple like you can't even see the truth even when it licks your face. Believe what you wanna believe, you are entitled to that much as a right, but don't come on here displayin such ignorance and imbecility while thinking that you are making a good point. Next tym do a little research before comenting on discussions which are aparently way beyond the scope of your comprehension.

It is certainly deep in this one

What the new gun laws seek to achieve is to bring to a stop the senseless killings and gun violence that the America has witnessed in recent times. . . Apparently you are in favor of gun ownership, that’s your choice but how you advance (or aptly put, regress) to branding Obama as a tyrannical ruler because of the new gun control measures he wants to introduce is just plain senseless. Nowhere have you validated the nonsensical claims you put forth and all this talk about not knowing what the “background checks” entails is complete FUD. There is no reasoning with folks like you

The admonition by the Lord Christ for prayer to be done quietly has no place in today's Christianity. Its all about making a joyful noise and shouting down the devil with the microphone at the max.

Photos are horrible.

omenka: Obama would turn out to be the most tyranical leader that ever walked the surface of the earth. I just hope America survives his current onslought on the Second Amendment becasuse the patsies deployed in the Aurora and Sandy Hook masacre realy did great jobs and the American public seems to be fallin for the government's hoax. If the new gun legislations see the light of day and the population is finally disarmed, the Globalists, with their loyal servant Obama, would have a smooth sailing executing their sinister agenda. May God help us.

Straight up nonsense!!

It is amazing how delusional stories are easily formed these days. Is there no limit to this lunacy? Must every happening be some sort of conspiracy? One does not have the strength to confront the condensed stupidity ingrained in this post but I will suggest that from now on everyone should strive to make use of a bit of common sense. . .just a little bit. . . before making any public utterance.

This ish is cray!

Nairaland is being over run by juveniles.

Why is the emphasis on the number of air crafts deployed.

Now everybody is an expert on road building.

Hilarious

I nearly fell asleep watching Skyfall. I don't know what all the rave reviews and noise were about because it was, IMO, one of the worst Bond movies I ever saw. They made over a billion dollars at the box office? Good for them now, they can pay me back the money I wasted buying a ticket.

oluwaisaac: See, bros, it is the same stgatistics above that makes some of our lecturer's live in poverty. Don't base your entire life on statistics and figures...live for today trusting God for favours everyday...that's what His Word says...Ha!

Trusting the Almighty for favor abi. This is how a vast majority Nigerians choose to live their lives conveniently ignoring the fact that success comes as a result of doing certain things right...and the article highlights just a few.

Who do I blame for this deplorable pattern of thinking that the average Nigerian youth has adopted for himself? The media? Or those preachers that indirectly support sloth in the name of trusting in a favor giving Almighty? Perhaps the blame should really lie on the individuals who want things made so easy for them that they retire their brains and common sense in the name of belief.

Pitiful how people will not look to see what they can learn from this article because it was written by a foreigner.

Let the blind continue to lead the blind.

Whats all this talk about remarriage, the man has been there and done that. He should live his life for himself and his kids.

ritchboy: I've been AWOL, but I'm back now(i think)

Kails as a co-mod is a good idea, as long as there's a clause in the contract stating we meet up at my mansion every weekend to "discuss the best ways to move the section forward", [size=2pt]preferably nak[color=#000000]e[/color]d[/size]

Welcome back boss man and happy new year. Where have you been? Was wondering if you had gone the way of Kosovo.
Kails as co-mod is a good idea as she has shown much promise and she'll make sure we are not left unchaperoned when you have an AWOL moment.

Goodness.

Lochia?! Thank heavens I'm a man.

All the stuff women have to go through. Yuck!

Will definitely continue to use the service. $1 for a year is more than fair enough

Cassava bread is sold in the Park and Shop stores in Abuja. Honestly it tastes like regular bread, I didn't notice anything different when I had some

Noctis: I have that same video. That video is why i was really hyped for ME3 in the first place. I'm Grizz by the way, the OP. Not using that profile anymore for...certain reasons.

Grizz=Noctis? Great. I was wondering where you had disappeared to too, it's posters like you that make this section interesting. Cheers man.

Hmmm. What do we have here,Christmas romance?

Merry Christmas everyone.

This is why we need a moderator.

Congratulations to 4llerwhatshisname.

Can somebody please tell us what happened to ritchboy? Is he no longer the mod? Has he disappeared like Kosovo did?

Anyways if he is gone then PLEASE let the mantle
be given to Kails. She seems fit and willing for the job.
