1 Timothy 6: 10 Amplifie Bible

For the love of money [that is, the greedy desire for it and the willingness to gain it unethically] is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves [through and through] with many sorrows.

I watched with a very deep grief as my late father died on my hands. He had stroke prior to his death.

7 yrs later, my mom died from breast cancer. I saw her dead body lying on the bed. Thought she was sleeping, tried waking her up but she never woke up.

You see eh, since I lost my parents; death non dey freak me again.

6 and he is dragging height with his parents?
Anyway, they are both tall. He must have taken it from them. Happy birthday to him.

1 child in 6 years.
Many rich people no just like stress.
They need time to tour the world, focus on their career and create more wealth.

But you see those ones on a 45k salary. Hmm!
The only way to revalidate their manhood is by impregnating their wives. No money to flex, so their recreation is in between the woman’s legs. When he is angry, na to offload inside the wife. When he is happy, double offloading. Next thing you go see na 5 similar looking children.



Thank you! I done fear how he got that tall.

TV/Movies / A Real-life 'squid Game' Is Being Organized In Abu Dhabi by Betallion: 5:46pm On Oct 12, 2021
Fans of the wildly popular "Squid Game" series on Netflix in Abu Dhabi may be given a chance to experience a real-life "Squid Game," sans the murder and bloodshed.

The Korean Cultural Center in the United Arab Emirates is organizing a reenactment of the games seen in the Netflix series for two teams of 15 participants. The event is slated to be held in two sessions on October 12 at the center's Abu Dhabi office.

"Squid Game" premiered on Netflix on September 17 and skyrocketed to the No. 1 spot in the US, Netflix's public rankings showed. The show is a Korean-language drama about desperate individuals who have found themselves in severe economic difficulty. Seeing no way out, 456 players opt into a series of deadly challenges modeled after Korean children's games in the hope of winning a jackpot prize of $38 million.

The center's event page said four out of the six games seen in the Netflix series would be played during the event. These include the "Red Light, Green Light" and "Dalgona Candy" challenges, both of which spawned trends on TikTok. Players would also get to try their hand at the "Marbles" and "Ddakji" (paper-flipping) games seen in the series.

But instead of $38 million, each winner is expected to be given a customized green tracksuit. Sadly, there's no prize money.

The center's games are expected to be held in two-hour, tournament-style sessions, and the eliminated players would get to watch the rest of the games from the sidelines.

To apply to join the UAE's version of "Squid Game," applicants must fill out a form containing three questions that tests them on their basic knowledge of the Netflix show. Thankfully, applicants didn't have to run the gauntlet of being slapped by a game recruiter multiple times just to get invited to the games.


Nam Chan-woo, the UAE Korean Cultural Center's director, told the local media outlet Khaleej Times that the participants would be dressed in T-shirts bearing the show's logo, while the event's staff would don the pink circle, triangle, and square costumes that the show's guards wore during the show's death games.

"Just as K-Pop gained worldwide popularity through YouTube in the 2010s, I think platforms such as Netflix would be a channel for the global spread of Korean video content such as dramas and movies," Nam told Insider.

Nam added that the event was being held to introduce Korean culture and the childhood games Koreans play to the people of the United Arab Emirates.

"The games played in the Netflix series are popular amongst children in Korea and remind Korean adults of nostalgic childhood memories. But similar traditional games are played by children here in the UAE, too," Nam said. "I hope the global popularity of 'Squid Game' will be an opportunity to spread other aspects of Korean culture, too, such as Hangeul, taekwondo, as well as K-dramas and movies."

In the meantime, "Squid Game" fever continues to sweep the internet and is turning some previously commonplace Korean games and snacks into global trends. Most recently, a maker of dalgona candies, a toffee snack that was featured in one of the show's challenges, said he was so swamped with customers that he hasn't gone home for a week. Outfits seen in the show are also being snapped up in stores, including white slip-on Vans and green retro tracksuits.
