Lol yeah it was pretty dry, I thought Nigerians were funny?

JeromeBlack:
"Jeh-rome."

Now I can rest

JeromeBlack

By the way, is your name pronounced Jeh-roh-mee or Jeh-rome? Lol I don’t know why not knowing is bothering me this much

michaelandre:
wtf does it mean

Lol I can’t even explain tbh

CAPSLOCKED:
TRYING TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THE NONSENSE THESE BLACK AMERICANS WRITE AND SING MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS BRAIN DAMAGE.

Lol most cultures have some type of ‘casual/colloquial’ venacular they use when they’re being informal and just joking amongst themselves, I’m sure if an outsider looked through the first few comments of some of these threads that make front page, they’d say the same thing about Nigerians lol. I doubt this is how he’d talk in a more formal setting, it’s just slang

blingxx:
Can anyone tell me why liam neeson is getting so many hate from niqqaz? ... He was just being honest

I don’t ‘cancel’ the guy personally since he’s acknowledged his mistake and takes accountability for how unjustified it was. That saying, some black people are upset because black people have and are still victims of people who thought and still think like Liam Neeson 40 years ago, situations like this are still a lived reality for some people, it is what it is *shrug*

Baddiezz:
You're obviously not in Nigeria cause I tried hard to comprehend what's up there and I couldn't

Lol circles I integrate with online are mostly African American, I guess I’m just used to the colloquial lingo

I almost fainted when I saw ‘a hip a hop a hibbet a hibbet to the hip hip hop and ya don’t stop a rocking’ face ass lmfao Chris is a damn fool for that

Shoutout to Sugarhill Gang lool

The ocean has been conquered and completely demystified centuries ago.

On the contrary, mankind know very little about space. The far side of the moon (the second spatial body mankind has landed craft) is just been studied. To put it in perspective, there are millions more spatial bodies yet to be explored.

We’ve explored more of it than space but I don’t know if conquered is the word I’d use, what we’ve discovered of it is barely anything when you take into account it’s size

But I guess there’s just something scarier about the ‘more’ unknown i.e. space

pocohantas:
Is this question for Nigerians, living in Ogbomoso or Obigbo?

Lmao

Couldn’t think of any other section to put this.

Which do you find scarier? Space or the ocean?

It's simply a Dog eat Dog world out there. It's the survival of the fittest so as soon as I land at Murtala Airport, everything about me changes. For starters, I leave my british accent at the airport and I adopt a proper thick Naija one.

My attitude also changes as the situation demands. I have found that more often than not being the Reasonable Mr Nice Guy does not cut it out there. One moment I'm "Mr Nice Guy" the next I'm " I go break bottle for ya head". It took me a while but i've also learnt how to drive like a Mental patient. Being orderly in a jam gets you absolutely nowhere. Infact quite the opposite. The queue of cars behind you would start raining curses on your head(whilst blasting their horns non stop) and if care is not taken, they'll bash your car just to create a little bit space.

You’ve totally hit the nail on the head.

Plus the bolded is exactly how I find myself behaving whenever I’m there. Lmao Nigeria makes me SWITCH real quick

Nigeria is the epitome of fraud, i always tell myself if I grew up there I’d be very mean because of the frustration

Gender role test

CuntMiner:
at allllll..... the guy is the son of her dad's elder brother...... I've warned her crazily that if I should organize any function, naming, graduation, house warming or anything, it won't be funny if he should come...... I've not even forgiven her self, I'm just trying to

Strange

CuntMiner:
your last paragraph, I was helping my girlfriend to become a better person, to help her ambitions,she travel for three months for an exam which I supported her, will always call her and all..... well she cheated by romancing and smooching her cousin twice, I get to angry whenever d shits pop to my thoughts

Lol hope you don’t still think he’s her ‘cousin’

So I can take his money

CaptainMitch:
I have a cousin that only paid brideprice and that was it, I would have loved a simple courtwedding. I don't think it's wise to spend a lot of money on a wedding and go broke while married.

Yeah, if it’s within your capacity to go all out, by all means do what makes you happy. But if you’ll end up struggling it’s not worth it

Don’t doubt it’s worked for plenty of people but it just sounds like stress

CaptainMitch:
3million and above by my estimation, but you can have something really small for less. It depends on the kind of occasion you desire.

Oh right, dude shouldn’t overexert himself. Over extravagant weddings aren’t a must if you can’t afford it, modest, intimate weddings can be just as memorable

CaptainMitch:
Buhari and his supporters are dumbo's, I wonder how their minds work. How do you do?

Not bad dearie, hope you’re good too

What’s the average cost of weddings in Nigeria?

CaptainMitch:
Never, that's a party of dullards, never do wells and ethnic champions. I have been a PDP member for really long, used to even have their card.

Lool just pulling your leg

CaptainMitch:
Amen.

Thought you were APC

Lmao

Cutie pie

There isn’t really a one size fits all answer for this but the most common reasons are a lack of planning, lack of education, their religion being against contraception, boredom, having children as a form of ‘joy’ to curb misery, having ‘more hands’ to help out, natural urges always triumphing over ‘birth control being expensive’ lol, etc

I'm sure there's a correlation between how much a guy struggles to pay a girl's bride price and the likelihood of him treating her like a purchased commodity

pocohantas:
Oh, I am scared. I am gonna die without colonizing one preek... I am crying

Kikikiki
