GamingRe: Which Computer Games Do You Play? by dakmanzero(m): 7:19pm On May 22, 2006
Hmmm, depends on what u play on!

If its only on the phone (7610) I'd say look for prince of persia:sands of time. You will absolutely *not* be dissapointed, I guarantee it!

You could also try rayman 3, but since i got my Ngage ive been kinda *out* of the 3650/6600/7610 nokia gaming scene grin

Are there other platforms you use to play?

@Chinani, Ive been ok. Hope you've been well!


I suppose that my mistake was assuming she grouped all africans underneath the banner of 'African Americans', as is commonly done!

Similarly it appears she is discussing the gender discrimination as a culturally-induced phenomenon, in which case it makes sense (and she's absolved from the bias accusation, cos she obviously isn't african american!!!!! Afterall this is nairaland! cheesy )


On that note, I suppose I agree.


On a related tangent- its kind of like over here where among easterners, the daughters are encouraged to do well at school, while the sons are encouraged to be 'smart' and 'rich' even at the expense of their grades.

You'll find that daughters of well-to-do easterners generally speak better and appear more educated than their brothers, who are more traditional but much more worldly-wise.

Among Yorubas you'll find that academic achievements by the girls are generally ignored- she is encouraged to find a good husband and stuff all else. The boys are encouraged to 'be successful', which generally means piling on titles, academic religious or otherwise, and building a house.

This may make it seem like one gender is supposedly smarter- but then they may just be socialized to be smarter?

@gem87

Yep, you are right.

Clingy is the word.

The thing is this: when a guy agrees to go out with you, he has put you on this high pedestal above all other girls. When you start to appear insecure and vulnerable, your profile sinks in his eyes.

Men may pretend that they like subservient, docile women but that's a complete lie! Act that way and you'll be trampled like a doormat and slung out the door when used up! If ure unlucky you may even be married already when that happens! We like it when our girls are smarter than us! Yes! Afterall mummy was smarter when we were kids! tongue

Just be sure to

(a) act like ure our TOTAL SLAVE when our friends are around to make em envious, and

(b) Agree to whatever stupid opinion we are pushing whenever an argument becomes more of a battle for authority than a sensible discussion. Most men know when they are wrong, and agreeing in that way can make a guy feel like a complete idiot

cheesy see me trying to sound like John Gray. lololololol DMZ out
EducationRe: Are Men Smarter Than Women? by dakmanzero(m): 10:13am On May 19, 2006
I was kind of nodding my head to your post until the bit where you contradict yourself  by saying that african american girls (same culture as the african american guys) are generally highly succesful and intelligent.

Not to propose anything to the contrary, but you should take note of these two facts:

1) Your point is to prove that intelligence may be more culture-dependent than gender-dependent

2) You are an African Female


These, combined with your statement, have punched holes throughout your argument. If *you* are highly succesful and intelligent, it shouldnt detract from what you have observed about the *generality* of Africans, and thus shouldnt lead you to add a subtle bias to your otherwise wellbalanced post.

u'll think about it? Oya now that the appropriate response is out of the way lets quickly progress to the next phase where u say 'YES!!!!' grin

laughs! Anyway, seriously it was a pleasant surprise to see that one of the nairalanders whose id I have come to recognize shares my little hobby/distraction! Even better to see ure in Naija as well, laughs!


Anyway, games based on movies are usually quite bad- with a few notable exceptions such as the Goldeneye game on N64 and the riddick game. Meh.
Christianity EtcRe: Nigerians Shouldn't Practise Imported Religions Like Christianity And Islam by dakmanzero(m): 4:45pm On May 18, 2006
spikedcylinder:
GL,i said forget the bible for a split second(if you possibly can).You do not know where the bible originated from.You only think you know because of what you´ve been made to believe.If indeed someone tried to convince you that the bible was a pile of crap,i believe you should be able to speak up for your beliefs based on what God told you,not through the bible because that rubbish is rubbish.
lol!

go girl!

as I always say, with religion, dont ever say you 'KNOW'. religion is nothing more than food for the spirit, and has no basis in real life. Seperate religion and knowledge. what we know and what we believe are different. if you try to convince me of something cos it was 'written' in a 2000 year old book of dubious origin all I will do is laugh at you!

on topic: lets stick with our imported religions. why? cos religion is like an elitist club. and xtianity and islam are the biggest in the world. if u dont belong to one or the other you are in deep shyte, dooood, no-one will wanna hang with you! cheesy

Which is why I have decided to marry you immediately! So how quickly can we make the arrangements tongue
EducationRe: Are Men Smarter Than Women? by dakmanzero(m): 1:27pm On May 17, 2006
its like asking 'can property merchants sing better than real estate evaluators'

question has no basis, cos smartness and gender are mutually exclusive

you can say 'is chinani smarter than jagunlabi?' now that makes sense. exactly as much sense as 'is jagunlabi smarter than dakmanzero' or 'is snazzydawn smarter than typewriter'

individuals have an iq level. genders do not.

now if you said 'are men GENERALLY smarter than women', you have a real question.

unfortunately only the WHO can answer it, after they measure brain mass indexes for a large enough sample population!

now if the question is 'ON NAIRALAND are men generally smarter than women' , the answer is, without a doubt, no! tongue

well, whether she makes that decision or not is none of your or my business. If she chooses it, let her have it. Thebaby growing in her is her own, not yours. Not until the umbilical is cut, has it ceased to be a part of her. finish

Jeeesus christ

will you look at all the book-burning censors coming out of the closet!

If you turn your children into bowl-brained troglodytes by stifling their imaginations then its your loss

YOU are the one they will hate when they grow up!

And as for my answer:NO it does not encourage witchcraft because there is no such thing. Please, people. Lets stop acting like we're in the 2,000,000th century BC

AutosCould Someone Help With Finding An Auto Respray Shop? by dakmanzero(op): 9:36pm On May 07, 2006
I recently had a nasty run-in with a drunken Okada  angry

Anyway I've sorted out my dear darling Cairo (thats my car's name!  grin ) BUT have a problem:

the car was factory-painted when I got it, and the stuff they sprayed on the dented bits is seriously lower quality- we have a slightly rougher texture and it doesnt shine as much! the doofus responsible claimed he doesnt have any way of preventing 'particles in the air' from settling beneath his coat of paint! Anyway I have the option of paying him a ludicrous sum to replicate his shoddy job ALL over the car (for uniformity's sake) or finding someone who has a clue, and getting them to redo the job.

So. Does anyone know any professional-grade car resprayers in Naija? (Lagos state ooooo! ) I dont mind if they charge an arm and a leg, I just want a professional job.

Thanks!

RomanceRe: In Love With Two Friends! by dakmanzero(m): 8:51pm On May 07, 2006
if your story is true at all then,

leave them both.

why?

Obviously you don't love your boyfriend, and his king-size schlong alone won't help you. In naija big kpacks are dime-a-dozen, GOD gave naija men that by improvising with our brains grin

Since you dont love him you will eventually slip up at some point. And unfortunately it is bad form to move from a partner to someone close to that partnet, so bobo friend is disqualified, too. Just leave them both before you do yaself strong thing.
