Uniquewise: Found out the soy sauce I had been using for weeks was fake also. The original name is Amoy; the one I bought was Amoys. And the painful part was the fact I only discovered when it was nearly finished. I just simply threw away what was left of it, lesson learnt.
One really needs to be more vigilant these days when buying things in the market. The way at which these unscrupulous fake items merchandisers are going, many Nigerians will continue to be exposed to potential health hazards from consuming these adulterated food and drinks.
The thought alone is scary.
Nigeria is gradually becoming China. I watched some Chinese documentary and those people life is something else “Dangerously Fake”
I work as a salaried individual and earn around 400k monthly.
However, my girlfriend constantly asks for money. I give her almost 100k every month and she feels it's not enough for her. She's even voiced discontent, suggesting I only send her money when she explicitly requests it.
I'm beginning to suspect her motives, as she seems solely focused on my income.
She never suggests saving or helps in cutting costs; her primary interest lies in spending everything. Despite my genuine love for her, I can't keep up with her demands. I had hopes for our future together, but it seems unlikely now.
I'm considering a breakup as a solution.
Has anyone navigated a similar situation?
No need to break up. Say you are using the money to build your future. And she should bear with you. Her action after then will determine if she love you.
She may just honestly feel entitled while still loving you. If she care enough about you, she will reason with you. Sometimes, people just need a push towards the right direction. Let her know there is another way to spend money (invest rather than lavishing it).
As of last update in 2023, the title of the world’s most expensive car was held by the “Rolls-Royce Boat Tail,” reportedly costing around $28 million. Not far behind was the Bugatti La Voiture Noire, selling for nearly $18.7 million after taxes. These vehicles are not merely modes of transportation; they are a confluence of artistry, engineering excellence, and exclusiveness.
The Rolls-Royce Boat Tail is proof that quantity and quality can walk together without overshadowing each other. This truly unique car was designed as a coach-built model, the first of three to be made. What does that mean? A bespoke vehicle, based on an existing framework.
This one’s especially impressive as it features elements of a J-Class yacht as well as those of the original 1932 Boat Tail. The Rolls-Royce Boat Tail made its public debut at Italy’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in late 2021 and shows off with its 6.75-liter twin-turbo V12 engine capable of 563 horsepower. It’s officially 2023’s most expensive new car in the world.
Keepamsafe: I feel so sad and devastated. Why are ladies treating good men like this
Today, I had to borrow money from 3 different loan app because im meeting a new girl today.
Luckily, we met and had our date and I spent roughly 45k I borrowed from loan app and still gave her 5k for pocket money and yet, she refused to follow me home.
Im home now, lying in bed alone and sad.
Hook up 7k, but I spent 50k today because i wanted to build soul connection. yet I gained nothing. Absolutely nothing. Not even sex and im now in debt, broke like a church rat and no woman to console me. I feel scammed.
Im in a dilemma. help please.
Which kain Mumu be dis?
Who tell you say na money dem dey take build soul connection. And is it the right thing to take a girl you wanted to build soul connection with to your home on a first date?
You still dey borrow money on top woman matter. Na Toto be your problem now or make you hustle well to be a man.
BadBradley: who wants to know whether an intolerant internet vagabond called Fryx is young or old? Nobody!!! You can register anything with CAC for as low as 20k. Bit again eno cares and why do you think this information is relevant to people who don't care whether you drop dead or not?
That's how we know those who live, survive by the perception others have about them. Mr. me me me me... look at me, look at me, loooook at me.
That's the perfect definition of a butthurt crybaby called Fryx.
You have explained your erection here and habits of sex over when nobody asked you And now you're telling us you're a young man and I'm an old man? Who cares?
Fryx when last did you read something outside Nairaland?
When a nobody finds the internet plus readied audience, they suddenly think they are doing or saying something new and get angry and like a 5 year-old when they are called out.
Your upbringing must have been a sad experience marked by abuse and put-downs .
Bursting your portulent ego is as easy as parting your mother's legs.
I corrected your grammar up there, and you're a supposed labour employer. You must be the head of unskilled labour supervisor in a pigsty
BadBradley: look at it this way.... people could be healthy but have a habit of drinking excessively.
People could also overdo exercises and it could lead to conditions in the long run.
People may be unable to sleep at night and develop issues later. I think it's the exactly what the prof was saying. Besides he's a professional on that field and gave his professional point of view.
You on the other hand is an un- taxable, unemployable internet loafer with no name , no education....qn individual with basically no skill or craft who depend on internet fables to have any sense of self worth or values.
And you get insecure and squeal like a pierced dirty pig when you're quoted over your own very point you put out there to the public!
You should be having daddy issues or relationship difficulties.....now go read your delusional post again and see how a becrowned nobody like you is challenging a prof and took time to explain your mythical erection to strangers who don't care....then come bsck and kneel for your deliverance.
You are afflicted with chronic attention deficit syndrome, low self-esteem.
Delusional People -pleaser

Coming from an educated man. I am a young man, and I honestly thought you will respect your old age after reading my reply. But, it’s a shame you are disgracing yourself with someone you must be old enough to father.
For your information, I am an employer of labor. And I feed people older than you — apart from my relatives.
Infact, I have a business registered with the CAC. Mr tax collector.
BadBradley: The Professor didn't call you or anyone unhealthy.
He simply said am erection beyond 30 minutes isn't healthy for the pemis on the long run
But then there's a world of difference between reality and digital conveyance of it.
I see, if someone tell me that I have a condition that will harm me in the future, it means I am healthy, even though I can’t help the condition and it is believed to harm me.
What school did you graduated from?
Moreover, I wonder why Sharing my point of view is giving you so much headhache. Since it’s the internet and I must be lying, why don’t you face your work. Are you this jobless?
And if it gives you so much concern. Bring your wife or daughter. I can prove it to you. I am sure that woman curses you under her breath for every thrust you make. If my comment gives you so much concern, then you are reflecting on your inadequacies.
Do whatever you like with your beliefs. I have only stated my experiences.
Can you give me a good reason why I would lie? Would this add to my bank account? For your information, I was trying to dispute the fact that that professor called me unhealthy. I am as healthy as I can be. In fact, I rarely fall sick. And it’s been years I took drug.

BigDickProblems: This is why I hate taking drugs. Some drugs kills you slowly but you don't know it. There were some drugs that the adverse and lifelong side effects were determined many years after their production, and were thereby banned from the market.
This malaria stuff is avoidable depending on your environment and if you use mosquito net.
The day I took paracetamol to wake up to swelling on my face was the last day I took anything medicine. It’s been over 7 years now.
I don’t think so. I am naturally a very agile guy. And I have a kind of heart that easily get triggered hold on for long (either in anger, or pain, or happiness)
And since the penis is supplied by blood from the heart. Naturally, I will retain my erection for longer since my heart can go on pumping blood for hours without stopping (it’s genetic. My parents are warriors)
So, having sex to me is usually very intense and can go on for hours. I only stopped when the girl I am with is no longer feeling it. I can also retain ejaculation for as long as I want. Coupled with the fact that I rarely get tired (even when working). I usually just keep going until it no longer makes sense.
But even after releasing. My thing will still remain standing until I lie down to rest or focus on something else.
The professor knows nothing. I am as healthy as I can be. It’s pure genetics.
alphaNomega: bros, no be to come nairaland to write loong story. I hope you have enough money to support this life you want to live. if you are a poor man, calm down .
Well, I have more than enough to satisfy my desire.
Moreover, even when I was struggling, I didn’t concern myself with anything woman. Because I know myself.
Men are receiving insults because they didn’t get their priorities right. If you can’t stand on your two feet, you have no business with a woman. Else you will be dehumanized.
Why did you even think she is enduring my high handed ness if I have nothing to offer. Even beyond money.
Airlohim: 6 years ago, there was a larger solar flare. But the inhabitants of Nairaland rested because there was no psychopath like you to tell them that the world is ending because of solar flares that is like bread and butter in the cosmos.
Your level of ignorance is just out of this world.
It’s actually a dangerous stuff it it faces the earth directly.
I heard it can cause some ice to melt resulting in flooding. But to what extent the ice can melt I don’t know.
I doubted it will be as extreme as painted though. It will simply increase earth temperature for a few minutes or hours, which will result in some ice melting at the surface. And possibly some sliding (ice) so the danger of flooding isn’t that much. Moreover, the Icy lands should be able to contain their water.
The danger lies in the dangerous radiation that will accompany it. However, we’ve always been at the mercy of dangerous radiation from the sun, and a major flare shouldn’t result in an apocalyptic effect.
Overall, I don’t think it is as dangerous as it was painted.
Rizzputin: Recently I stumbled on a nairalander's unfortunate post. It's similar to most stories you read on social media these days
According to him, he met a girl and fell in love with her. She was the typical gf material…The best part? She was a virgin. What more could he ask for
To top it off, she promised him her virginity. Possibly, when she's ready or better when they're married
Until 2 weeks later she got fùcked by a guy she had barely known for 2 weeks. Of course, he went on an emotional rant of how wicked women are. And how insensitive she was.
Can you guess her reason for giving another guy her "precious" virginity? "It just happened!"
Everybody and his mother has heard this phrase from women when they talk about some crazy sex she engaged in recently.
That trip to her bestie's house where she got pounded? She didn't plan to, you see.
She wasn't meaning for it to happen. Had she known, she wouldn't have gone there or allowed it… but it just happened!
Or how about when she went to deliver her wedding iv card to her ex only to fùck him? Well, that just happened too
Things "just happening" are a common occurrence for most women. Most women seem to be just floating along on the currents of life, when somehow they bump into a man and his long John Thomas falls inside her. Totally by mistake.
Except is it really a mistake?
Every experienced seducer knows the answer to that. It's not. To the naive man, he'll probably brush it off as an honest mistake
You see, women make things happen or put themselves in a position where things are most likely "just to happen."
That's why I advocate you become a hookup material. When you act that way you are more likely to "make it happen", fùck her and avoid being played.
---Why do things seem to "just happen" with women?
It's simple. She says that so she can shift the blame.
Or better still, find a way to justify her actions. Much better to say "it just happened: than to admit she willingly went to fùck someone.
That's why a big part of being a hook up material is being smooth, subtle… and inspiring her to lust after you.
Because when she lusts after you, she'll be an active participant in the seduction. She'll create opportunities and follow you to places where things can most likely "just happen"
---How to "make things happen" as a man
A smooth, sweet seduction is subtle. It leads a girl through some steps right into your arms.
And it's done in such a way she feels allowed to.
Becoming a hook up material is at the core of seduction. You use Lust Oriented Topics to gently nudge her into situations that things might just happen.
Of course, she can't help it because of how aroused she is. You don't want her to see you as bf or husband material because the pressure to be perfect is on her.
Rather you want to act like a hook up material. Make the right moves. Invite her to the right places and stimulate the necessary emotions in her.
Another benefit of being a hook up material that makes things happen is that she sees you as a guy that just gets it.
It's like you're part of the secret society of womanese. So she's less likely to play those games with you
---What should you do when "things keep happening" with your girlfriend
This applies to guys that are dating or have intentions to. If that's you, pay close attention.
Let's say your girl keeps giving out her number to guys. Or going to clubs with her female friends. Or wearing very skimpy clothes.
And when you ask why, she tells you it's just happened. Cuz she didn't plan for it.
How would you handle it?
Here's a tip:
● Call her out on the bs in a calm way. Show her how her actions make room for these things to happen.
Because believe it or not, she knows what she's doing. When you do this, it makes it even more obvious to her conscious mind the role she plays and the fact that you don't like it
So whenever such a situation presents itself, she'll either make a conscious decision to act funny or not.
And if she continues, you know what to do.
Stop taking women too seriously. Focus on your career.
LagosG: I don't like the big pack noodles. I prefer the smaller packs. I'm old school like that. The only problem is that these days as a fully grown adult, I don't eat noodles as an in-between meals. I eat it as a full meal, breakfast, lunch or dinner so I make 6 to get my filling. Someone called me a glutton because of this and I must fry eggs with it.
Abeg adults, when you make noodles at home, how many do you cook?
Postinor: I am 6'3 in height and I am 19 yrs of age. I usually feel too tall when I walk around my age mates and what makes me feel insecure the most is when people start saying that I am long.
Tall people out there, how do you survive? I also hate it when people stare at my height when I am walking in the street because I am the kind of person that likes being conspicuous and unseen.
At times I just wish I wasn't so tall, so I would like to know at what age does one stop growing in height?
Tall come build like me. You go know say na blessing
KushLyon: This is what many people don't know. Chatgpt that isn't up-to-date with modern coding practices and syntax, unless you're using gpt-4 which isn't free
Sometimes, I will want to work on different scenarios, which uses a similar coding syntax. I will usually work on the first scenario, and to avoid the stress of repeating for the rest, I will ask chatGPT to complete it for me using the first one as a reference. I will give it all the details it need. Do you know what that “lazyGPT” does?
It will simply explain what I have done, and repeat it while leaving comment for me to continue. Like, I asked you to complete a task and you are sending it back to me as is. lol.
Bard usually understood it and sometimes will even give me a better approach. I learn more algorithm and syntax from interacting with Bard than reading or watching tutorials.
YouandiAllofus: if the job is yet to be completed, and you don't want him to continue with the job. Then you can take the job away together with the remaining materials for the job. Do your calculations with him and balance out the financial aspect either by paying for the specific services he has rendered sofar or ask for a refund for the remaining part of the job left undone in the case that you paid him upfront in full.
YouandiAllofus: You want to arrest a piece of furniture or the carpenter?
Firstly, If you break his shop in his absence, you're a burglar. And you may have created another case entirely. Secondly, you can't order the police to beat anyone or keep them in custody beyond the stipulated time specified by law. Unless the police dimmed it necessary pending the outcome of investigations into a complex situation, and the police will have to seek the approval of the law through the court. Else, you commit a crime in conjunction with the police who are supposed to prevent the occurrence of crime and injustice.
You can only lay your complaint and the police will give the most suitable reaction to the situation either by inviting him, visiting him or taking him in for questioning for possible resolution if available and within reach without further complications. Otherwise, you will have to press charges against the carpenter and you both dig it out in the law court.
Thanks. But I hate stress. I hate it when people don’t keep up with agreement.
My previous plan was to simply go if he is around, I will start taking the uncompleted works. And once I take my own, I will take more. And if he try to stop me, then one of us will be beaten up.
But I didn’t meet him at the shop (he didn’t open). He refuse to pick my call too.
I told him I am traveling today, he refuse to complete the work. Refuses to pick my call and he did not open the shop today.
My plan was to burgle the store and destroy his valuables. But then, I think again.
What if I report him to the police. Ask them to beat him up and refuse to release him until he paid the money. Then they can keep the money. But above all, beat him up for stressing me.

Kobojunkie: The one is the National Constitution for the State of Israel in the Land of Canaan(The Law of Moses) whereas the other is the national constitution for God's Special Nation of Priests aka the Kingdom of God(God's New Covenant, Jesus Christ). Surely, you can understand how it makes sense for two nations to have different Constitutions particularly since the second Nation is a Kingdom that is not of this world but also has laws tailored specifically to the needs of the citizenry.
I have an old account but I would rather not do anything of this kind of WhatsApp.
I can’t continue doing this on Nairaland. I’m quite busy.
