RomanceRe: How I Found Out I Snore When I Sleep. This Is Embarrassing by etrange: 6:34pm On Aug 23, 2020
gasparpisciotta:
You are a living being, snoring and farting during your sleep is very normal. It only varies from human to human.
Like you said, it varies and it could be very very frustrating for the person next to you.

TravelRe: Learning A Foreign Language? Get In Here by etrange: 6:27pm On Aug 23, 2020
Nice.

It's good to have a concrete reason to learn a language but most times, you get much better results if you learn it as a hobby. However, not everyone is passionate about languages until the need to learn one arises.
RomanceRe: After 20 Days Of Semen Retention.. Here's What I Think by etrange:
TrollKiller:
FEW is greater in terms of numbers than A FEW

Same applies to little
I never said otherwise. I actually don't know how this affects my discussion with the lady. The debate is that "a couple" doesn't just means "two", rather it could mean "a few" which translates to "a small number of...". And in that context, it's relative to the number of whatever is being counted so 20 could be a few of you're considering the number of days in a year, for example.

Beverlyjean:
How can 20 b a few days ...haba... 3, 4 5 days is a few ... 20 days means a few weeks o a couple of weeks
The word 'few' is relative nah. We have 365 days in a year, 20 could be a few. If you're considering 1 million, even 1,000 could be a few. It's relative. Some people retain for 6 months so OP isn't wrong for calling 20 days a few. It's just an expression, sis.

Beverlyjean:
No one is arguing that...but the guy that quoted me was too silly not understand what I meant... the op mentioned 20 days ...and also said a couple of days / months .. now does it make sense ?? Is it 20 days or 2 days or 2 months??
But 20 days could be a few days nah. And like we've agreed, "a couple" could also mean a "few". It mustn't always be two days.
PhonesRe: Why Is The Iphone So Overpriced In Nigeria? by etrange: 2:41pm On Aug 23, 2020
It's almost the same price here in the Americas but it's not really considered costly because the cost of production is in the same currency as the purchasing cost. Buying iPhone in Nigeria is like earning in Naira and spending in dollars. Regardless of the item, it'll still appear expensive. It's just like some of us that pay close to N500,000/month on rent but no, we're not rich if you consider that in dollars. So getting an iPhone in Nigeria is like paying house rent for someone in America.

Guys think there are legends for sleeping with different girls (all thanks to the biased society) but they fume against girls that sleep with many guys. Lmao. Who do you think you were sleeping with, aliens?

For all we know, the girl the OP sees as a score might actually have OP on her rotation list.

Christianity EtcRe: Seven Holy Bible Verses That Will Make You Question The Authenticity Of Christia by etrange: 12:40am On Aug 23, 2020
Interesting.

I'm not really religious, I agree to some inconsistencies (afterall, all holy books were written by humans based on thier understanding and influenced by their culture) but I also think some only seem inconsistent because they were taken out of context (e.g No. 6), some are subject to different interpretations (e.g. No.17, the two statements are together and the first part advices you not to let a fool drag you into his mud while the second part advices you not to let his foolishness go unchallenged) while I believe some are just stories used to pass across a message and might not have happened really (e.g. No. 4, the story of Job).

Just my take.

I'm not religious but I actually have no issue with people who consciously give their money to churches. I might advice them but it's not in my position to tell them what to do. Churches are NGO's and as such, there's a limit to governments' involvement.

They should not cause further harm to that country, you can imagine a coup more peaceful than elections in Africa generally
Actually, there's nothing like a peaceful coup. The precedence it sets is devastating. The next administration only lasts as long as its power can endure and they will have no moral grounds to speak against the subsequent power tussle. Coups turn civilisations back to the days of the early men.

What are you saying? Is the post about people being called civilians? Did anyone complain about being called a civilian? The post is about the military personnels' disposition towards the people they are meant to protect. It has become a hobby for them to torment people and they are not hiding anymore. That's worrisome; not that they called people civilians. Before nko, aren't we civilians? undecided

PetsRe: Are Cats Truly Demonic? by etrange: 3:40pm On Aug 21, 2020
Think about it, why would a demon take the form of a cat when everyone already "knows" cats are demonic? Why wouldn't it come as a dove, dog or even mosquito? Like you called it, it's just a myth. Cats are adorable creatures and they would easily warm up to you if you consistently show them love (yes, their love is conditional, lol). That's why cats in Africa (which are what OP basically described) tend to be skittish, insecure and withdrawn while the ones here have a much better relationship with humans.

NB: Animals are generally less skittish in the western world.
TravelRe: Driving Through The Lagos International Airport Road (pics, Video) by etrange: 2:47pm On Aug 21, 2020
Nice one.

Going by the pics, you're more on the side of the local airport (from the toll gate down to MM2 passing Bisam, Airforce Base, etc). The international airport side (toll gate up to Ajao junction) just recently got renovated and deserves to be showcased too given the quality and beautification.

NB: I said going by the pics alone.

True but which is better, both people are emotionally invested in each other or only the guy is emotionally invested in the girl?....because a guy can be emotionally invested in a girl just for he beauty alone....women brains are wired differently....they need these rollercoaster of emotions.
Well, everyone needs one thing or the other to let the emotions flow. But I agree with you that both parties need to be emotionally attached for the relationship to work. We also need to know when to just move on without whining and waging war at the opposite gender.
RomanceRe: How To Get A Woman Emotionally Attached To You!! by etrange: 3:54pm On Aug 20, 2020
When you invest this much time yourself, share experiences and have good sex with her, you're also getting yourself emotionally attached to her.

You are 25, bro. I sincerely think you can't do this all by yourself. Letting your people in will be the in the best interest of all the parties involved. You're directly involved, you're fidgeting; you can't make the best decisions in this state of mind and it's a baby we are talking about here, not just any other possession. You need help, get as much of it as you can.

avoid women like this if you want to go far in life

Check my signature for your designs
Stop hiding behind sexism, if you have point, make it and leave gender out of it. How can you even think if justifying the house-help's act even without first calling her out or criticising her actions? She could have left the house if she didn't like how she was being treated. Killing the lady wouldn't have made things any better for her. You're thinking the madame was the antagonist based on "more to the story" but you haven't even criticized the would-have-been murderer based on what you know so far.
RomanceRe: Romance by etrange: 12:30am On Aug 20, 2020
Both of you should come together and bear the responsibility. You mustn't marry if you both don't want it but you must contribute to make the burden more bearable. You may not have money but taking responsibility goes beyond money. She needs to know she isn't alone and that you're willing to make sacrifices. All these are for the baby and your relationship with them.

The attached story in the link happened just last year.

Be there forming adviser. Till tomorrow newspapers are paying big to VERIFY Stories before reporting because nobody owes you just a letter to retract .. they can tell you to retract and pay e.g N20m ... you refuse then you stroll with them to court.

You cannot even spread “gossip” unless there’s HARD evidence which you have verified to allude to that I.e the Jeff Bezos story.
You missed my point but it's fine. I'm not in for an argument.
