We all live in denial and guess what, we are in love with it! |
@op. Good job. Only your research was silent on the concept of death. Thanatologists are still trying. Good job no less. |
Brilliant! And to think you logged it on " Violent/Disgusting Non-Celebrity Crimes" makes it more so. |
This has gone beyond act, tact, apt or art. It is fart! |
Call 14120. Simple. |
Hold on briefly. Nairalanders will soon be here. |
Nairaland, Our e-home, our e-own, our e-fatherland From 2005 when Lord Osewa baked thee This year you clocked a dozen less three We prided ourselves loud, bold, strong and fun To query, cry or cheer we had no where to run Dearest Nairaland, darling Nairaland Who torched you with their wooden heart and leprous hand? Who displaced a million five from a hearty land? Who took our e-life, sneered and down the gorge? For a million grands, a zillion thanks or some nillion grudge? Who leveled a ridge, bombed a bridge and laid a siege? But this is not an epithet or some sonorous dirge! When the sun smiled a second time There were no lines or explicit rhyme Hours like the school bus we could not breathe thee We went Twitter, Facebook, all others and LIB And soon Dr Seun pronounced thee dead! Guaranteed resurrection fire-lethal Gen Osewa said Hanging by that tiny thread of hope and trust We waited, trusted and did nothing less Like in birth we saw our baby kick and thrust Nairaland is born again and yes! We mourned the e-wars, the e-loves, but absence sucks We lost data, alternate handles and darling 'likes' Like in war, we lost Property intellectual, friends great, foes dear and businesses dire. Like in war, we lost Like in love, we lost We'd rather not the first For in truth our land is rebuilt (Work in progress) |
If these 13 points are the perfect yardsticks for guaging mental strength, I can as well go to bed. But what is mental energy without physical charisma. |
Chinaimporter: I dnt understand u people.is it that u have coconut water in ur brains or u just have difficulty understanding english language.You are saying the same thing with him. The missing word both of you are trying to nail Mr President against is 'modesty'. |
Whatever it is that is in that Yaris that keeps deceiving its drivers to think they are driving some German V6 4.5ltr 320hp sports trim Sedan... Ok o. I remembered one -amongst others- was killing the speed with my Pug 207 somewhere on those Ekiti state expways. I was doing maybe 140km/hr and then yuuuun a Yaris (with 2 female passengers seated at the rear while the driver manned the wheels) just overtook me. I was like 'waoh!'... So I downshifted and flogged the engine on 4. By the time I graded back to 5... Rubbish! Now to your question: 1. A/c 2. Tap windows 3. Rpm 100kmh in <10secs 4. Ready local mechanic 5. Pricing 6. Uncommon on Nigerian roads. |
D.A.V.E:Shittu- Used to be my late grandpa's middle name. It is of Arabic origin and not a Yoruba methinks. |
One netwark I dey send me Porty Porty (4040) ebery time. Anather one I dey send me Pipty Pipty (5050). Trust me, I carry my wire, I call zheir cuastomer care and gabe zhem a fiece op my mind, walahi prom zhat day no more nansense messages. Ama de gaskia, zhose punny nambers still call me samtimes. Sheguna da shegaye n natworkoki! |
To. What. End? But harsh immigration policies and economic sabotage. |
Everybody shouts 'impossible is nothing' all the time but when it comes to practically up-turning status quo everybody cowers. Greatest achievements in life have always been made with recipes of 'it is impossible' from people who already knew too much. I remember reading about the Wright brothers having their father being part of the leaders of the scientific team who signed off a memo that concluded that 'iron can never fly' just ONE year before the aeroplane was achieved. Secondly, I am always afraid of people with a vision and drive. And I know this man has lots of both. Also, I know him to be an ardent reader and a student of great biographies. Keep laughing at other people's dreams... Who knows, you may never be able to fall asleep yourself. |
cluewebhost: To buy fuel My two eyes must dey meter o, Ive no choice sha, I need to come down to open the fuel cap with my car keyYou drive a millenium Peugeot! |
Mobil Ogba, by Wempco Junction. Even though my wife always complined about that station, I drove there on empty thank and asked the attendant to fill the tank. At N1000 the attendant stopped nd wiped off the meter. Shocked at the speed, I asked him why and he said he has finished selling the N4000, did I not see it? I was so angry I started shouting. What was I to be arguing about: the N4000 I didn't ask him to sell, becuse I requsted for a full tank, which hardly takes less than N7k to fill, or that he sold N1000, or that he rubbed the meter off. I got in my suv and just drove off. Mobil, By Federal Palace, Ahamdu Bello, V.I. Those ones, I don't know how they do it but your fuel guage never reports right after buying from them. One Friday afternoon in Apr 2010, I got to 3rd Mainland Bridge to discover the N2k fuel they sold to me was barely N200. Then it was N65/ltr and it usually took about N3k to fill my little Civic's tank. Sadly I was to drive to Ilorin and that was the last money on me for fueling.Got back there on Monday and they were looking at me like I were some alien from Mars. Deliberately, I went there a week later in coy of 3 badt friends. Interestingly, the same elderly-looking guy who earlier sold to me attended to me again and still short-changed me... The rest is history. As for me and my house, the only time we'll ever patronize Mobil is when they hold monopoly. |
Indeed Americans' lifestyle can never be eternally sustainable. Something must give. A global currency is needed still and with America's power, she will fight such alternative(s) to a possible frustrating end. Indeed, the much-talked-about end of the American empire may be ticking, but I don't think this is it yet. This may very well, inter alia, be part of or path to it. On the other hand too, I don't think the world will not miss America much if China inherits Uncle Sam's role. Apart from ideological and political leanings, China or her Yuan doesn't look like it for me. |

A picture would have done justice to this journalism. Anway, RIP bro. |
I don't even believe the guy is a Nigerian. Apart from 'Bala' which is somewhat of Northen Nigeria/Northern Africa. I do not know any Nigerian tribe that bears Yilkyes and or Tonglolo. The only thing Nigerian about the guy is the craze for titles. QED. |
Most Nigerian Hip hop songs that can't continue without mentioning girl's body parts or claim how rich and full of vanity the artiste is. Eg "...see calabash, e want to make me to dey speak Calabar..." Another one Poor souls. |
When he wakes up and shouts 'Shhit! Shh!t mehn!' he will find for the first time that that statement has never been truer! |
Alumnus status. Present sir. Long live Univ of Ilorin! |
This is the power of dreams. Your government says 'Well, we are going to be walking on water soon. And thus is the way we intend to achieve it: ...' And out of sheer courage you begin to invest hugely building toll-gates on every waterfront there is. Dreams flourish on trust. Trust your gov't's plans and build your plans around it. Chances are your dreams will fetch you gold. |
Thank God. Pertaining Feyi I write: Kokumo the child shall be called. And Mrs Chijioke: God will grant you grace. He will keep your daughter, strengthen your mind and improve your purse. Our brother Chijioke is gone but we are happy we still have you and his daughter. And all those affected: Pls be comforted. Please. |
Brilliant. It is innovations like these that will help redefine who we are. Bravo! Prof. Keep it up. Proud of my alma mater too. Long live University of Ilorin |
iamroyal: And Wizkid predicted this stuff... "20 man shall fall that day"So, who crossed Whizkid's lane today? |
Well, I am afraid that at the END, these guys who shout 'ETT' all the TIME may not be wrong about these THINGS. Else, how best does one describe this? |
