1. You don't eat your friends leftovers unless you're ready to part ways with them... It's either them or him.

2. You're obviously just a second option to the guy and not really his heart desires... He already told you the type of women he likes, and judging from your post, you don't fit that criteria.

3. Had things worked out between him and your friend, I'm sure he wouldn't even look your direction.

4. To you it might be love while to him it could be just lust... He's probably using you as a distraction.

Next thing when things don't work out, you'll be saying "men are trash", when you'd have ignored the red flags by allowing yourself to be trashed.
You are very factual and realistic like me. Please take your flowers you deserve it
Foreign AffairsRe: US Is Accepting 'Gifts' Via Venmo, PayPal To Reduce $36.7 Trillion Debt by blueghost(m): 10:34pm On Jul 27, 2025
PythonPro001:
I need answers to these questions:
1. Who exactly is the US owing this humongous sum of money ?
2. When and why did the US, a supposedly wealthy nation, borrow this money ?
3. If it is so important to pay off the debt, why isn't printing new dollars an option ?
The U.S. government owes money to a variety of entities, both domestic and foreign. The largest holders of U.S. debt are the U.S. government itself, followed by foreign governments, particularly Japan and China, and then domestic investors, including individuals, banks, and other institutions.

Science/TechnologyRe: Crow: What Do You Know About This Trending Animal? Is It Truly Evil? Picture by blueghost(m): 7:37pm On Jul 22, 2025
The bird in the image is a Pied Crow (Corvus albus), a striking and intelligent African corvid.
Here's some information about Pied Crows:
Appearance and Habitat:
They are easily recognized by their bold black and white plumage, with a white chest and belly contrasting with their black head, wings, and back. They are common throughout sub-Saharan Africa, preferring open areas and often found near human settlements like rubbish dumps and slaughterhouses due to their scavenging nature.
Diet and Behavior:
Pied Crows are omnivores, consuming a wide range of food including insects, reptiles, fruits, seeds, and food waste. They are known for their opportunistic foraging and scavenging habits. They can be aggressive, raiding nests for eggs and nestlings, and are often seen in pairs or small groups.
Intelligence:
Like other corvids, Pied Crows are highly intelligent and curious birds. Research suggests they possess problem-solving abilities and can even use tools.
Conservation Status:[b][/b]
Their high adaptability to human activities and lack of known predators contribute to their conservation status being listed as 'least concern

Science/TechnologyRe: What Is The Name Of This Animal? by blueghost(m): 4:19pm On Jul 15, 2025
The animal in the image is a flying lizard, specifically a species from the genus Draco, commonly known as flying dragons.
Gliding Ability:
These lizards are famous for their ability to glide between trees using wing-like membranes called patagia, which are supported by elongated ribs.
Habitat and Diet:
They are primarily arboreal, found in the forests of Southeast Asia and Southern India, and their diet consists mainly of ants and termites.
Appearance:
Draco species are typically dull-colored, but their "wings" can be brightly colored, such as the orange and black bands seen in the image, which are characteristic of males of some species like Draco volans.
Behavior:
Males are territorial and use their gliding ability to defend their territory. Females descend to the forest floor to lay eggs in a hole they dig
RomanceRe: Understanding Wives Are Suffering, Wicked Wives Are Enjoying. by blueghost(m): 9:55pm On Jul 11, 2025
Merry100:
Are you trying to be traditional or logical? Because right now, only you seem to understand your perspective and whichever way you spin it, it's still wrong.

Women are emotionally starved and spiritually overworked, yet told to be 'grateful' for crumbs. But be honest, can those crumbs even pay for the service she renders? She’s underpaid, undervalued, and overused.

Traditionally, women are expected to function as maid, nanny, cook, nurse, financial manager, tailor, therapist; the list never ends. And men? Simply expected to 'provide.'

Logically, this isn't love; It's labour exploitation.

But the moment women speaks up or asks for basic care, you scream 'Oliver Twist', start claiming it is transactional love and that a women are pushing their husband into crime.
Don't change the narrative here read what i wrote slowly especially the first lines. you only talked your own side which you put it in a cool way. Now my question is are you saying he has never done a dime for youhuh
PS: except you confirm he is a deadbeat husband or lazy man, if you can't admit that then be content with whatever you have cos is cold outside

You don't get it because you're no different from him; you’re clearly a user just like he is. He has a good wife, but he refuses to reciprocate by being a good husband. It's her thirtieth birthday, for God's sake! He can't just go around bragging about her efforts. He could have shown he cares by simply buying her something, even if it wasn’t expensive.
One sided story, you told your own part beautifully, "He could have shown he cares by simply buying her something, even if it wasn’t expensive" i am sure your husband takes care of you and provide for the house, but of course you are an Oliver Twist and want more. Stop watering the small efforts your husband makes. stp transcational love. Na wuna dey push wuna husband go do yahoo or enter cult

Someone should please tell the retard that age is far long. The world is wiser now and no one wants to align with a bully.

What a joke, A clown of his kind trying to bully Nigeria under the administration of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR). He better rethink! It’s 2025.

I am. It even surprised a bit since he can bully Canada, UK and the rest of Europe. Dude is intoxicated with power, forgetting that, outside war, the US practically has nothing to offer.
Then let African leaders respect themselves and stop borrowing or the bully continues as you put it. a beggar has no choice and respect and can be talked on anyhow
Foreign AffairsRe: UK's New M16 Chief's Grandfather Was A Nazi Spy Nicknamed "The Butcher" (Photos) by blueghost(m): 1:29pm On Jun 28, 2025
Botragelad:
Lol. Why do you keep typing and spouting propaganda all over the forum?
How can every NATO leader have Nazi parents?
lol

lol. From Canada to Portugal, all of them just happens to be the grandchild of a Nazi? what's your source?
Macron’s grandfather was a teacher/ professor. How's that for Nazi?
Trudeau who's the former pm of Canada.His grandfather opposed fascism.
Did you bother to even think about the nonsense you wrote there?

How does being related to a Nazi = You are a Nazi?
By that logic:
If your grandfather was a thief, does that make you a criminal?
People aren’t always responsible for their relatives’ actions
.

By the way, Soviet Russia also worked With the Nazis , Stalin signed a pact with Hitler in 1939 (Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact) where they jointly invaded Poland and carved up Eastern Europe together, check it up. So, if we’re playing the “guilt by association” game, doesn’t that mean Russia was also Nazi-friendly at one point?
Now, if hating Russia means you’re a Nazi, does liking Russia mean you’re okay with Stalin-Hitler teamwork?


Russia Defeated the Nazis, yes, but not alone.
The Red Army sure played a huge role in defeating Nazi Germany, but so did Britain, America, Canada, and others. How can you pretend it was only Russia? what happened to the allies?

If NATO leaders really hate Russia because of dead Nazi relatives, why then did the West and USSR work together during the war? Shouldn’t Churchill have loved Hitler by that logic?

Maybe we dislike Russia Putin because of the Invasion thing or perhaps leaders criticise Russia because of the annexation of Crimea? The poisoning of opponents? People calling from building? Haha.

You don’t like North Korea? Must be because your grandad fought in the Korean War!
You criticise China? Clearly your ancestor was an opium dealer! Does that make any sense?Pls grab a book and quit embarrassing yourself. lol
The problem with the OP is that he is unintelligent and emotional, he doesn't know his history lesson and far away from reality. He is just addicted to russian and blinded by facts. To him Russia is heaven and angel and have never done wrong in history. Does he even know the evil that russian did when they invaded berlin? they were killing civilians and children at random, the USA and other countries had empathy and were just after surrender. The truth is USA is not perfect and have it flaws but they are the best in policing the world. imagine if it were russian, arab, Chinese we could have all been dead

Science/TechnologyRe: Which Of These Animals Is Coming Out Alive by blueghost(m): 9:32am On Jun 13, 2025
i consulted AI and it was interesting here

Based on a realistic assessment of size, strength, weaponry, and predatory instincts, the bear (specifically a polar bear or grizzly) would most likely be the sole survivor. Here's why:

Bear (Polar/Grizzly):

Size & Strength: Massive (polar bears are the largest land carnivores), incredibly powerful, thick fat/muscle for protection.

Weaponry: Huge claws (up to 4+ inches), powerful jaws with bone-crushing bite force, surprising agility/speed for their size.

Temperament: Highly aggressive, territorial apex predators used to fighting and killing large, dangerous prey (including other predators). They are relentless and don't back down easily.

Durability: Extremely tough to injure fatally quickly due to thick hide, muscle, and fat.

Why the others likely fall:

Lion: A formidable predator, but significantly smaller and lighter than a large bear or rhino. While agile and armed with claws/teeth, it lacks the sheer mass and raw power to overpower a determined bear or withstand a rhino charge. It's the most likely predator besides the bear but loses in a direct confrontation.

Rhino: Incredibly powerful charge, thick skin, and a deadly horn. However, it lacks agility, predatory instinct, and tactical fighting ability. It's primarily a defensive herbivore. Against multiple agile attackers (especially the bear) or if flanked, it would be vulnerable. Its eyesight is poor, making it susceptible to attacks from the side/rear.

Gorilla: Extremely strong for a primate, intelligent, and can be aggressive. However, it lacks natural weapons (small teeth/claws compared to big cats/bears), has relatively thin skin vulnerable to deep bites/claws, and is not a natural predator or fighter to the death against other large apex animals. Its strength is primarily for display and intra-species conflict, not combating armored giants or hyper-carnivores.

The Most Likely Outcome:

The lion would likely target the perceived "weakest" or most vulnerable first (possibly the gorilla or trying to flank the rhino).

The rhino would likely charge whatever threatened it most directly (maybe the lion or bear), potentially inflicting massive damage but struggling against multiple attackers or agile foes.

The gorilla, while strong, would be critically outmatched in weaponry and defense against the carnivores and would likely be killed early.

The bear would use its size, power, and weaponry to engage whichever threat is most immediate, likely targeting the lion (its main predatory rival) or the rhino if charged. Its durability allows it to absorb hits that would cripple the others.

Ultimately, the bear's combination of massive size, devastating weaponry (claws/jaws), relentless aggression, and incredible durability gives it the highest probability of surviving the chaotic, brutal bloodbath and being the last one standing.

Important Caveat: This is a highly unnatural and cruel scenario. In reality, such an encounter would be chaotic and unpredictable, and all animals would likely suffer severe injuries. However, based purely on physical attributes and fighting capabilities, the bear possesses the most advantages for emerging alive from such a horrific free-for-all.
