Nairaland General › Re: Why Do People Overly Stare At Me? by chieveboy(m): 11:26am On Sep 01 |
Elena243: I have noticed that people stare at me a lot when I am outside. And no, I am not overacting. Sometimes, I consciously observe others around me and notice that they barely get stared at the way I do. These stares sometimes come with flashes of benevolent smiles from random strangers. Sometimes, the smiles are those types someone give when they have something to say but choose not to say it.
I sometimes think it is because of my height, because I am about 6’2-6’3 (I’ve never measured my height by the way). But the trend continues even when I’m seated, and hard to measure my height. A teen girl and her friend were staring at me the other day, while I was walking, that one almost got hit by a keke napep.
Even children walking by stare at me. Sometimes with a smile, and other times, with eyes of curiosity. I have no physical disability or defect by the way.
I am male, dark-skinned in complexion, and 28 years old. Is this normal? Does anyone experience same? Any possible reason why it happens? Always always, its something in your aura. Some could see it, some can't but simply react to it by staring. Be heart-centered and youre good. |

We're headed towards what in tech is touted as some form of 'Singularity' for mobile computer experience where based on proven UX, phones must take on their current similar forms.
While we await the birth of novel replacement for how mobile phones look like today, adoption of touchscreen is largely responsible for this. |

Duplex90: That's proof AI is capable of alot of things including running a govt. If we all can agree, AI will help a lot on this regard. A system you cant beat if you must use it. From procurement, expenditure, allocation, monitoring and eval. AI can do a lot, though not all. I have mulled the idea of making a software for this. |

Celebrities › Re: Did Chidimma Adetshina Perform Her Duties As Miss Universe Nigeria? by chieveboy(m): 2:17pm On Aug 23 |
RandDigital: A pageant queen's hard work doesn't end when the crown is laid upon her head, it often continues months and years after her reign.
In the case of national glory, the queen is often looked upon to engage in social upliftment programmes throughout a timespan that often lasts a year until her successor is crowned.
The reigning queen often takes up causes to alleviate violence against women and children, poverty or healthcare, among others.
However, Chidimma Adetshina as Miss Universe Nigeria, Miss Africa and 1st runner up at Miss Universe did none of these, instead she abandoned her responsibilities and returned to her home country South Africa within weeks of her reign and disappeared into obscurity.
One has to ask of the organisers that invited her to Miss Universe Nigeria after she pulled out of Miss SA - were there no contractual obligations to keep her in Nigeria to carry out these duties?
As a Nigerian, does this sit comfortably with you? Guys the OP is South African and as usual, he wants to work us up to hate as they do over there. OP, yes, we are okay with her like that. |

This is okay to do.
When you see this, the government is building a new road and those drainages would be removed by bulldozers.
They some time stay by the side when the bulldozers are removing more difficult rods which they wont use |
Christianity Etc › Re: What Kind Of "Side Hustle" Is Your Church Running? by chieveboy(m): 11:32am On Aug 23 |
I think if the church having proven to be powerful economically and socially can emulate Christ Embassy, Nigeria will change before our eyes.
As a sample, a church in Nigeria. has more than enough to invest in electricity to take care of Nigeria and even export.
Nothing wrong in converting the church as a tool for social and economic liberation. They have just been myopic all this while playing the wicked servant in the Parable of the Sower.

well religion makes it difficult to negotiate "God" before even thinking of loving him.
