Romance10 Odd Emotions You May (or May Not) Have Experienced by dantewest(op): 12:27pm On Jul 01, 2015
Have you ever had the persistent feeling that you were out of place? Or, felt a sense of sadness that you will never know what will happen to your great-great-grandchildren? There are actually names given to these strange feelings. See how many you have experienced.

1. Opia – This is the name given to the intense feeling of invasive arousal that one feels when engaging in mutual gaze — making direct eye contact with someone else. A great deal of research has been done on eye contact (see here), and it is well established that eye contact can be arousing. The arousal is often interpreted based on the circumstances – unpleasant if the person is seen as a threat, pleasant and titillating if you are attracted to the other.

2. Déjà vu – Most everyone knows this one. It is the feeling that you’ve been someplace before or that you are repeating an event. Memory psychologists believe that this is caused by features from a past experience that are triggered from features of the new experience which are similar in some way. Approximately 75% of people report experiencing déjà vu.

3. Ellipsism – This is the term that is given to a sense of sadness one experiences when realizing that you won’t live to see the future. An example is an elderly person who is sad because he won’t get to see a newborn baby age into adulthood.

4. Chrysalism – Have you ever had a sense of warmth, peace, and tranquility when you are warm and dry inside the house during an intense rainstorm? This experience is likened to feeling like you are back in the womb, and has been labeled Chrysalism.

5. Adronitis – This is a sense of frustration experienced when meeting a new and interesting person, but realizing how long it is going to take to develop the relationship fully. You want the relationship to develop quickly, but know it won’t. Research on relationships suggests that one mechanism for developing closeness is reciprocal self-disclosure – successively revealing personal information to each other, and this takes some time.

6. Liberosis – The desire to care less about things. As we mature into adults, we take on more and more responsibilities. Liberosis is the feeling you get when you wish you could be a child again, without cares and concerns.

7. Enouement – Have you ever wished that you could go back in time and tell your past self about the future? This is enouement. When something has turned out well, you recall how your younger self worried about it, and you wish that you could go back and let your younger self know that things will turn out ok.

8. Jouska – This is a hypothetical conversation that you play out over and over in your head. For example, replaying an argument in your head where you say all the right things and “win” the argument, or practicing asking your boss for a raise and playing out his responses and your comebacks.

9. Exulansis – A sense of frustration when you realize that you are talking about an important experience, but other people are unable to understand or relate to the experience. So, you give up talking about it.

10. Fugue state – This last one is a psychological condition where the individual moves about and speaks, but without conscious awareness. Fugue states can be alcohol or drug induced, where the individual has no memory of his or her actions.

While some of these feelings have been studied by psychologists, others have not. Many of these have been labeled and explained in the very interesting Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows.

Nairaland GeneralIt's Weekend In Naija! by dantewest(op): 10:17pm On Apr 26, 2015
Well, here is how it goes in naija.

You have to be crafty, smart and current. Go with the damn flow and network. This is how to get noticed, learn and succeed.

The truth depends on your point of view, 1+1 = N.

This is how naijarithemetic is done

I enjoy the glamour of events, you know what i mean, Saturdays flexing, freed up roads, lots of smiles, happiness and positive vibrations in excess.

Birthdays, weddings, clubbing, events, home coming...the list is almost endless. We in Nigeria never joke with parties. It's our culture, it forms the backbone of our tradition as well.

Its the weekend.

Join the fun, the week has had it share of our blood, sweat and tears. Let the weekend usher in more positive emotions and feelings.

It makes you look forward to the next weekend, gives you a chance to network in a positive environment.

Have fun and happy weekend.

Treating Nigeria right
RomanceShe Paid For My Beer by dantewest(op): 9:53pm On Apr 26, 2015
What will you drink, Smirnoff Ice? I sat down looking at the eyes of the loveliest lady I have met this 2015. You see, the girl in question was a special kind of lady with intelligent brains ready for the picking.

We hardly even looked at each other earlier that afternoon at the fuel station where we met for the first time.
I was assisting her dad with her relocation process, from first view, I had a feeling she was forming Behind babe things for me. As a sharp dude, I immediately kept my distance and involved my mind with other activities...


I kept my cool, called a few friends and almost ignored her totally. Infact, I was showing her how to form tushness properly.

We eventually got talking gradually, before we knew what was happening, darkness was already blanketing the city. I decided to make the bold step and propose a proper date.

What will you drink? Smirnoff Ice? I asked, she smiled and looked me squarely in the eyes and said small stout, she said it like she was daring me to react. I smiled happily because we share the same taste in beer! Finally!


I love a Nigerian lady who doesn't pretend without reason, I'm not a fan of good girl, omo Mummy virgin type of girl. Infact, I run from such babes.

I love ladies with experience, maybe partly due to the size of my penis, but intelligence is a MUST, with a freak between the sheet.

I look forward paying for our drinks in our next date because she surprised me by footing the bill! Can you beat that? A naija babe footing shayo bills...


I look forward to hanging out with her once more, I don't care the package, I love picking brains for dinner, perhaps she is a queen between the sheets too.

Next weekend should be fun, see you soon folks!

Jokes EtcRe: How To Be A Weird Nigerian In 10 Simple Steps by dantewest(op): 5:03pm On Apr 26, 2015

Jokes EtcHow To Be A Weird Nigerian In 10 Simple Steps by dantewest(op): 11:56am On Apr 26, 2015
Being a Nigerian is gradually changing into something else. No one wants to be the same anymore, besides, being yourself doesn’t make you feel satisfied. We act a little bit weird to stand out. Before reading further, remember, you want to be weird and not crazy! Finding the thin line between both is a matter of perception.

Step 1

Get your own unique hangout joints and give it a weird name. Talk about your secret hangout spot with your friends and share with them the timeless culture surrounding it without inviting them to your secret spot. This will raise eyebrows

Step 2

Follow non popular holidays like 420, ok, 420 is a little bit popular to our Nigerian stoners, talk excessively about a top scientific like the human genome project and the 2045 singularity event. People are definitely going stare and associate weirdness with your personality.

Step 3

Don’t join in the ignorant topics of discussion. Sound knowledgeable and intelligent. This is a very high weirdness marker, people are going respect your weirdness, you will lose fake friends in the process but the real and important friends will be yours to keep and nurture.

Care for little creatures like ants, cockroaches and spiders, yes I said spiders. Trust our naija babes, this is where they come into this discussion fully. Caring for little things like that is a huge sign that you are asking to join the ranks of the single dudes out there. Naija babes don’t love soft pussies, they love the men strong, ignorant and obedient.

Step 4

Eating like Edo witches and wizards. Eating eba with fork and knife, using hand to eat jollof rice at KFC, eating indomie and bread at your girlfriend’s house and voicing out your annoyance at her laziness, trust me, most Nigerian guys accept all nonsense from their babes. The babes will definitely put you in the weird zone for been real about your emotions when it comes to food.

Step 5

Laughing at the little things is a huge marker for Yaba left type or weirdness, I am personally guilty of this. Added with my other nonconformist hobbies, doing and saying things people know but are too chicken to say or act. Playing cloth games with your girlfriend, using costumes when engaging in sexual acts, this is my personal favourite, and yes, I am absolutely weird this way!

Step 6

As a Nigerian, you are programmed not to speak good English for the fear of been labelled as a phony. Screw that train of thinking, I speak perfectly good English. Use words like amazing, cunnilingus in sentences and refuse to explain the meaning. Still want get creative? Mash words together like Smartmugu, please what is a smartmugu? Speak with funny assents, be Bostwanian today, South African tomorrow, Ghanian on Thursdays, the bold ones go for Spanish on Friday nights after a few vodka shots of course. And if all fails, gibberish still works, literally speak in tongues till you get the attention you crave for.

Step 7

Talk to animals, inanimate objects and of course, talk to yourself too. Not that I am advertising Yaba left, but you get the idea. This will make you popular on a weird level and people will definitely pay attention. Do this all the time and you will be put on the hall of fame wall in your school, office, police station, hospital…etc

Step 8

Become an atheist or an agnostic. Be vocal about your choice in the same way the Christians and Muslims are vocal about their religion. Caution though, don’t overdo it, choose your battle field carefully and be wise. Been weird is far different from been hospitalised or dead.

Step 9

Change your wardrobe to bright colour, clashing patterns and crazy textures. You can’t successfully be weird without looking weird as well. Cry when reading books, cry hard when watching movies, cry when making love, cry when having rough sex, cry when in missionary position, cry when collecting money from debtors, cry when your Samsung galaxy phone battery fully charges, and cry when you see your partner’s unclothedness for the first time.

Step 10

Think weird. Be yourself, free the inner beast in you. Don’t pay attention to what others think. Those who matter won’t mind who you really are. No one has the authority to have a say in what rocks your boat. Once you start acting weird, word will get around that you are different, and it’s not entirely a bad thing, infact, it comes with lots of benefits!

BusinessHow To Save More When Shopping In 10 Simple Steps by dantewest(op):
Step 1

Getting a budget is an excellent way to get started, in preparing a realistic budget; a very good idea is to have a look at what category of items you spend the most on.

Step 2

To get cheaper offers on items, it is ideal you experiment on different stores. You can save money on refurnishing your home or office with simple ideas like checking what you have, making a list and sticking to your list.

Step 3

Be on the lookout for Special offers. Make sure you work out whether a deal is really as good as it looks. For example, your favorite Infinix x507 normally cost N23, 000 in most online retail stores whereas, same product could go as low as N7, 000 using an online auction website like Krackbid It’s also smart to buy in bulk if you are shopping for family and friends.

Step 4

Always compare prices. Many online stores offer brand new products at slightly different price, do a price check on the high street and compare with the online prices to see where you can get the best possible deal.

Step 5

Always take a few minutes to read customer and expert reviews on the products you’re interested in. You can use price comparison sites to compare the cost of anything from fridges and washing machines, to digital cameras and TVs.

Step 6

Get vouchers whenever possible. Vouchers are awesome tools to get huge discount on products; discounts can be between 50% and 90% off the original price. Some online stores gives you free voucher when you register, signup for newsletters or when you start following them on Facebook or Twitter, so it can pay to keep a closer eye on your favorite brands.

Step 7

Look out for special promotions. Many times there are special offers including discounts or free shipping that the operator isn’t allowed to mention unless the customer asks.

Step 8

Know the best time to buy. Some products go on sale more often than others do. Start paying close attention to your favorite items and record how often they go on sale. This is a sure way of saving money while saving

Step 9

Get smart about online retail stores. Using auction platforms for instance will save you more than using the traditional online retail stores.

Step 10

Use Krackbid, Nigeria’s Largest Online Auction and Bidding Platform for your shopping. Krackbid is an ENTERTAINMENT fun shopping website that deals in brand new products through its fast-paced auction, at enormous discounts. Consumers compete in the auction to win products at up to 80% off Recommended Retail Prices (RRP) or you can simply buy them at the typical selling price.

Ii. Supporter 2 is a paid agent, feed him and he will speak for you, he works for the highest bidder.

Iii. Supporter 3 just hates hausa-fulanis, it does not matter whether GEJ is the best, as long as the opponent is hausa- fulani, GEJ gets his vote. This person will tell you: 'if only APC chose fashola'. Oh wait, fashola is a hausa slave.

Iv. Supporter 4 says GEJ is chosen by God afterall he knees at every church, this supporter has never voted a non christian in his life and abstained from voting when yaradua went against Buhari.

V. Supporter 5 is a student struggling to get a BSc but would call Buhari, a graduate of the US war college, with a diploma equivalent to a masters degree today an illiterate. What irony!!!

Vi. Supporter 6 feels Buhari is too old so would rather retain incompetent leadership.

Vii. Supporter 7 has a relation in power or gains from government.

Viii. Supporter 8 thinks Buhari is an extremist despite the fact that Buhari fought and defeated extremists in his time as head of state, leading from the front. He remains the only Nigerian ruler to have comprehensively defeated a militia. (Biafra was a conventional army)

Ix. Supporter 9 can't explain why he hates Buhari. A weird mix of tribo-religious sentiments.

X. Supporter 10 believes APC is responsible for everything, the ekiti tape even though the actors have confessed, the paid protesters against Buhari, global warming, Boko haram, ISIS, Patience diction, why Mr president is ineffective, etc
