ALERT! ! ! EXTRA LONG POST FROM AN ANGRY STONER! ! !



Some people just weren't meant to smoke weed, it's a fact. Those are the ones that fight tooth and nail against it. The worst is when someone's never ever tried it before but is ready to fabricate a hundred lies about what makes it bad. Those people deserve to be flogged. If you've never been to sokoto you can never tell me what happens there. Most of the most prominent, intelligent, successful and wealthiest people in the world either smoke marijuana or have done so at one time or another in their lives, from Oprah to Obama and Bill Gates to Clinton then Bush to Mandela (I purposely left out musicians from my list for obvious reasons) the fact is that everyone must have at least one bad habit, just chose the one you can defend at any time or gathering.

It's legalized in many countries already. Do you know that in America there are reportedly over a million alcohol, cocaine, heroine and acid related fatalities each annually but ZERO cannabis related ones? Do your research my people. I'm so tired of people saying weed is bad. Smoke blunt and shut up. People frequently have bad experiences on their first try but it gets better from there, those that took it the first time and ran away from it obviously took an overdose. Thankfully an overdose of marijuana has been known to knock out the consumer for a short period of time at most after which the individual comes to (I say this because it happened to me on my first try, it never deterred me though) You can never run mad from an overdose, it's a fabrication that old people used to try and make their kids desist from taking it. Anyone you noticed who took it and ran mad must have added something else into it either knowingly or unknowingly OR didn't tell you the truth about the kind of drug he/she took prior to running mad OR its a remote controlled event by that old witch from the persons village

When you take it the first time you won't understand what's going on with your system, it makes your senses heighten and your mind may wander depending on your activity at that time. But when you take an overdose the first time this feeling causes panic and dread to anyone.

The problem is that we Nigerians abuse it, it's supposed to be taken in 'medical' quantities (often referred to as pinchi). In other countries the drug may cost so much that up to 5 individuals may have to pool resources just to purchase a joint which they all share. Over here with as little as N50 you can buy a quantity equal to that being sold for $30 or £20. Do you know that the bottom part of the joint where your lips go (aka claro) is enough to give you the necessary medical relaxation that the drug was intended to? No newbie can have a harrowing first experience if he/she takes a maximum of 3 long deep puffs of marijuana smoke at any given time.

People should stop calling Jesus or God where marijuana is involved, it's not a mortal sin to smoke even if it damages your lungs. Too much of everything has repercussions and don't forget that we're all BONA FIDE SINNERS here. I will rather take an overdose of marijuana and get knocked out than take an overdose of alcohol and act the fool (well, at my level I can never get knocked out by marijuana ever again) I know that I may one day quit smoking, but I haven't imagined what sickness will cause that event to take place. Don't tell me my lungs will get back because it's better than having a black heart as most people do. I know I will die someday but if I had a choice I will pray to go in my sleep or while high on some kush

Sticks and stones may make you bleed but you'll feel a lot better if you smoke weed. #word

WEED CAN NEVER EVER MAKE A PERSON MAD except it's mixed with another substance and taken.

My first experience is my best because I have never ever been that high again since then.

I smoke daily, it's ingrained in my blood now, if I'm to detox it'lltake me a full year with aaccompanying rehabilitation.

I love weed, it makes me relax. I don't take it if I'm going to be doing important stuff though, it takes much concentration then.

this is so 4kd up. how can a phone costing $600 be called a budget phone? abeg can someone please explain apples concept of saying that paying N90,000 for a phone is at a budget?

this phone is strictly for the big girls

caukerzee: Them broke b>tches be like^^^ (LOL )

Tecno users have money, we stink of cash in fact we are so rich that we can actually afford to buy a New phone (with all the right features) and decide to use it for a period of 6 months to 1yr and CHANGE IT.

you on the other hand had to scratch up your meagre savings to struggle for a 3rd hand Samsung phone which you plan to use for the next 3yrs or more.

You are a kid, not more than 23yrs and a student, how can you come here claiming Don coleon on our heads? If others are stewpid I'm not, I SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOUR broke a$$

3rd hand Samsung user, broke boy that buys phone to use for 3yrs. . . Lol, don't you believe you can buy another phone before then? Oh I forgot, YOU HAVE NO JOB.

Now who is the broke one?

that picture on the wall is very familiar . . . hmm, NBM tinz !!!

HATER ! ! !

awesome99: HATERS GONNA HATE,LOVERS GONNA LOVE
HAV NOT USED A TECNO YET.I HOPE TO JOIN THE TRAIN SOON

Tell them, tecno haters will soon be put to shame. Go and buy your phantom a+ and join the winning team.

Screw updates, screw gorilla glass, screw smart everything and there will be nothing else to screw than the extra 30k that will remain in your pocket after you purchase a TEAR NYLON a+ complete with your leather pouch, screen guard and power bank. Next year june God will provide another 30k for you to still go out and buy the latest tecno once more after dashing the a+ to your younger one.

Its a win win situation, HATERS GON HATE & LOVERS GON LOVE baby

*still high on that ish*

Ziggyzito: hehehe... when you start doing the smart stay, air gesture, smart scroll and the rest. .. please let us know....but I know its never happening tho... piece of brick.

BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!

you see, this is exactly why most countries turn Nigeria into their test ground for frivolity. Do you know why Samsung invented all those smart stay, smart gesture e.t.c stuff? IT'S FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES so they can also get to be able to make use of the phones. EXAMPLE

Smart scroll is for PEOPLE SO LAZY TO USE THEIR FINGERS TO SWYPE THEIR SCREEN (OR THOSE WITHOUT FINGERS AT ALL)

smart stay is for PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO HANG THEIR PHONE SOMEWHERE AND JUST STARE AT IT (OR PEOPLE WHO HAVE A PROBLEM OF GOING TO SLEEP AT ODD INTERVALS, MOSTLY A SLEEPING DISORDER)

air gesture : NOW THIS IS THE MOST FRIVOLOUS OF THEM ALL . . . WHY WOULD I HAVE TO HOVER MY HANDS ABOVE MY PHONE JUST TO DO SOME ODD TASKS (A NORMAL HUMAN BEING WOULD SIMPLY REACH 0.5 INCHES LOWER AND TOUCH THE PHONES ACTUAL SCREEN TO GET THE WORK DONE FASTER) unless of course you screen gets allergic to your touch then air gesture may be useful to you one day soon, or you may become really disabled then up uncle Samsung for the ADDED INITIATIVES.

that reminds me, i have an 89yrs old grandmum at my village who is Bed-ridden, has Parkinson's disease, really bad eyesight and has trouble turning her neck but I still love talking to her on the phone everyday. Maybe its time to actually cough up N100k to buy the galaxy s4 for her.

SMART stuff right?

caukerzee: a basic phone user will tell you his java phone is all he needs since it meets all he needs for a phone and hence doesnt need an android. But that doesnt put them on the same level does it?? And no one here gives a f*ck what the nigerian populance need. Not even samsung does. We are not some marketers for these companies. We are not here to talk about what you and your retarded peers but which is better.

every phone does the same basic things. In the case of these two, one does it more efficiently and at a faster speed.

what a stu.pid basis for comparism. Heck...even a java phone can do that

no. Thats not true. As a gs3 user, you are almost sure not to expirience caution messages like 'whatever app suddenly stopped working' or 'what ever app os not compatible with your device please ask for a refund. You'd get a lot of those on ate a+.

..yet another supeed basis for comparism.

ALL THESE ONE WEY YOU DEY RANT AND RAVE NA JUST HEAVY WASH!

I will bring my "chinko made" tecno and you will bring your "STILL chinko made" galaxy and we will still run every single application available in Google store together.

I am not so old or blind that I need will cough up N30k extra for a super clear screen just yet in my life, I don't wear glasses

I am not a kid that needs to save extra N30k for gorilla glass because I don't throw my phone on the ground anyhow

I am not so clingy that I cant save up that N30k and instead add another N5k to it simply to buy the next TECHNO phone that would run on android jelly bean 4.3 by October time (after rocking my beloved 4.2 this month of course) while galaxy users still bow, pray and wait on Google and Samsung to assist you with your updates.

I am not a nerd, gigahertz can't be seen or felt but OBSERVED, do I need a quadcore processor to run fifa13 fluidly? YES. Do you need a 1gig ram too? OH YES. do you have such a device? HELL YES I DO! Allow me re-introduce you to my. TECNO PHANTOM A+

*smoking my fifth joint, playing most wanted, listening to Pandora, skyping, facebooking, candy crushing and typing this ish at the very same time all on my a+*

HATERS GON HATE! ! LOVERS GON LOVE

4llerbuntu: u forgot to mention your display looks like shiiit whilst ur bros looks great #justsaying

and as for the the camera being better "slightly" .... mehn, whatever rocks ur boat.

That camera was d first to match up with the Iphone's camera.... put up ur photos on a pc and compare... make e no be say na ur "bright" TFT display dey deceive ur eyes

My dear, if the display is good enough to 'DECEIVE' my eyes, then what the heck am I going to complain about?

I am not like you that wears a microscope on my eyes just to press my phone. The difference is not visible to the normal users eyes

all of you are just making excess noise

I use a phantom a+ and my brother uses a galaxy s3, these are what I have noticed in the two phones ACCORDING TO OUR EVERYDAY USE (mind you we are normal users and not 'geeks' that buy phones because of processor/vga/ram/sound/body e.t.c) we just have good android devices

1. they BOTH DO EXACTLY THE SAME THINGS without any difference at all (please leave out all those touch-whiz, gps, e.t.c minor details that are usually not useful to the Nigerian populace)

2. any movie that plays on gs3 plays on a+

3. any game that plays on gs3 plays on a+

4. any song that plays on gs3 plays on a+

5. any picture that shows on gs3 shows on a+

6. a+ weighs SLIGHTLY more than gs3

7. a+ has a bolder finish than gs3

8. they are both of plastic but a+ has an added ALUMINUM trim on its face panel (stylish)

9. a+ has a slightly LARGER screen

10. a+ has a slightly BRIGHTER screen (I didn't say resolution)

11. a+ battery lasts slightly longer on the lowest of settings

12. the os of a+ is superior to that of gs3

13. a+ home/back/menu buttons are all touch while gs3 has a raised/hard button home button

14. a+ comes with its own leather cover case, screen guard and power bank/torchlight while a gs3 user must GO TO MARKET AND BUY HIS/HER OWN

15. gs3 camera is better than that of the a+, but only slightly (as usual)

16. the a+ is dual sim the gs3 is not

17. the price of the a+ is HALF that of the gs3

well, I know there are many more differences, but these are the main ones that are observable to the casual - heavy user, for those who are into android development then you can look at the other differences in-depth.

MY PERSONAL VERDICT

A. if you know that you have enough money to spend on an android phone from a more popular manufacturer, with periodic updates,a few better INTERNAL components and the notion that you will love to use your phone for more than 3yrs at a stretch before selling it off, then the SAMSUNG is definitely for you

B. if you know that you don't want to spend/don't have money for an expensive phone from a more popular company and can easily settle to make use of your phone for just a year before throwing it away or dashing it out to a relative or friend and getting a new one, then the TECHNO is definitely for you.



I think I have said enough.

Some examples of our nigerian pigeon or vernacular english are . . .


*Abeg dress back.
*If I hear pim, u go hear weeen.
*Have they BROUGHT light?
*The FILM is SWEET
*Pls help me SLOW that fan
*Mummy HAVE come
*I'll tell my daddy FOR YOU
*Have you paid your school fees
money?
*See as you BAFF up
*Put the bread inside LYLON
*I strong KAKARAKA
*Oya come and be going
*I KUKUMA don't have your time
*Shebi you have BB charger
*See how her eye is entering my
food
*Did you see the sound of my
ringtone?
*I know you have come since bcoz I
hear
your perfume.
*I wan ENTER Motor
*U dey hear d smell?
*shey u dey catch cold
*Abeg leave me alone
*i carry God take beg u ooo
*have mummy Go
*why are u lying in ma head
*is uncle dat beat mε
*is me dat wil do first

now just try translating those statements above into PROPER ENGLISH and see what you would get

naijababe: Feel free to point it out to a Dutch!

please dont confuse yourself . There is a BIG difference between pronouncing a word and adding an accent to that same word.

take for instance, a guy years a suit and goes into a market place. If that guy is able to speak fluent english then NOBODY IN THE MARKET WOULD BE ABLE TO TELL HIS ETHNIC TRIBE just by listening to his voice alone. (unless he has tribal marks)

now he this same guy goes over to the UK and decides to go into a mall and speak THE SAME FLUENT ENGLISH HE SPOKE IN NIGERIA the people there will immediately single him out, because he will be speaking with an ACCENT . mind you, the people will not be able to pin point the actual TRIBE of the guy but his COUNTRY due to his accent.

So all i an trying to say is this, when you are in Nigeria and decide to speak english fluently, it is paramount that you do so in a way NOT TO EXPOSE YOUR TRIBAL BACKGROUND. in this country many people speak english but from the way they pronounce some words one can know the exact tribe that person belongs to . . . AND THIS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE SO.

now, if i walk down the street tomorrow and a guy says the word 'HAVE' to make it sound like 'HAFF' . . . my dear, in nigeria it may be called a YORUBA ACCENT but to foreigners it is just a NIGERIAN ACCENT.

now for pronouncing words, people keep saying that the british have their own english same with the americans, australians e.t.c . even nigeria has its own version called PIGEON ENGLISH . . . but the truth of the matter is that our own pigeon english is really a VERNACULAR ENGLISH e.g. if i am to translate "i have to take i shower" to the nigerian pigeon english it will be as thus "i wan go baff"

so whenever you feel like using the dutch version of pronouncing words as a referrence you need to also understand that THE DUTCH DONT USE ENGLISH AS THEIR COUNTRYS OFFICIAL LANGUAGE (its not even their first or second language) so if a dutch chooses to pronounce 'HER' as 'HAIR' we can manage to accomodate such mistakes.

please dont pronounce 'HAVE' as 'HAFF' and claim its an accent . . . you should learn not to confuse yourself.

naijababe: Yeah, the word 'HAVE' is English and should be treated as such but most native Dutch speakers would pronounce it as 'haff' just like my Ibadan brother would! So, again what is your point?

is that pronunciation right ?

naijababe: . We do not have the 'v' sound in my mother tongue neither do the Dutch! What's your point again?

let of descend to your level of reasoning . . . Just this once . . .

listen, the word 'HAVE' is NOT your mother tongue. It is an ENGLISH word and MUST BE TREATED AS SUCH

while pronuncing it the consonant sound 'V' is NOT SILENT and should under no circumstance sound like 'fff' as in the word 'HALF' .

if you want to do something i believe its to be done right, you can say you FLUENTLY understand/speak english and still make that kind of mistake. i an aware that your mother tongue forbids the correct pronunciation of english words . . . want to know why ? . . . BECAUSE IT IS NOT A WORD FROM YOUR MOTHER TONGUE

so when you try to speak english in future ( and yes i know you must one day come out of the village you are living in) just try to focus on the kind of grammar you use on people lest you MURDER THEM with your accent riddled bullets

naijababe: I take back my previous post. This is even more ludicrous

why do you think so? or are you also one of those people that write 'HAVE' and pronounce it as 'HAFF' ?

OCTAVO: Personally, I was raised by my parents to speak our local dialect from childhood, now I'm an adult and I'm not doing bad at all when it comes to speaking good English.
I wonder what the stress of these new generation parents is all about.
It's now like a competition amongst the Elites to raise their children to speak English thereby preventing these little kids from learning how to speak their local language fluently and efficiently.
This has become a general disease in our present generation and it's spreading too fast!
If we the oldies never learnt our local languages, our local languages would have gone extinct.
Must we now allow our own local languages to fade off just because of modernization?
Now my question is this:
Is there any special importance attached to raising a child to speak English language in Nigeria?

this is a very delicate matter. But in reality its quite simple.

IF YOU LIVE IN A RURAL ENVIRONMENT AND HAVE VARIOUS TIES TO TRADITIONAL MATTERS then it is wise to teach your children to speak their native language more fluently than english but IF YOU LIVE IN THE CITY OR ABROAD then you will need to make them more fluent in english that their native languaga.

some children can be very fluent in both classes but they are the SPECIAL ONES and this can only be realized when they have achieved maturity.

these days people make use of the english language in everything official. Even before an individual is accorded an audience the factors of looks, intelligence & diction are very important.

you being a parent are supposed to lead the child, so it is safe to say that you will mould that child to be what he will be tomorrow.

so the question is this . . . WHAT LANGUAGE DO YOU BELIEVE WILL BENEFIT YOUR CHILD MORE IN FUTURE ?

as for me, i just cant imagine myself raising an 'MGBÈKÈ' (as the ibo's call them) and call him/her my child in this day and age

virgin + disvirgin = new born baby

new born baby - father = BAS.STARD !!!

ANS: this kid is a 'potential' baztard until the DNA test proves otherwise

former VIRGIN beauty queen . . . PELE OOoo !

Logicboy03: lol....you can keep swearing for your wretched boyfriend......

even with your ipad and iphone and imac and bb and tab and what ever the hell have you, the fact is that you are a big COWARD hiding behind the curtain called the world wide web to try and decieve your very own self

POST THAT STORY HERE OR REMAIN MUTE

stop beating about the forest mr. man

Logicboy03: Lol......the first.line of my post here......whi do you think told me about christianity and slavery?

Are you too foolish to see that the stories add up?

my dear i feel like laughing this evening. I DARE YOU TO POST THE FULL STORY OF YOUR MEETING WITH THAT DRUNK WHITE RACIST RIGHT HERE FOR ALL TO SEE, after all you said he was your first contact and what you both talked about that day is the main reason and basis for your turning away from God.

you think you have a good ground to discredit God, but in reality you are just a common 'empty head' with an internet enabled phone, spare mb and a lot of vaccum UPSTAIRS


we are waiting for the EXPANDED VERSION of that your conversion story (especially the first line), dont summarize it for us this time okay.

OlooSHi !!

Logicboy03: How many times do I have to tell my story?

-22 years a catholic
-told about slavery and christianity
-read about slavery and christianity
-read about religion and psychology
-left christianity


I can tell you that leaving christianity has opened my brain. I see
things from a clear perspective now. I dont resort to God to things I
cant explain. I dont see use a 2000 year old book to judge others;
gays, pagans and unbelievers.



No pastor can ver give you freedom. No pastor will tell you to read the
God delusion for yourself and compare it with the bible. Pastors will
always give you parts of the bible THEY WANT you to read. A pastor can
not get tithes or offerings from a self aware person

erm . . . escuse me , but arent you the guy that CLAIMED TO BE CONVERTED IN A BAR IN UK BY A WHITE DRUNKEN RACIST?

thats you right . . dont tell me you have decided to drop that story for this one. that one is waayyy more funny and interesting than this lie you posted here pal

jmoore: Looking at your username, you should stop smoking weed. Then you can interpret the bible very well

i know pastors who also smoke and interprete the bible better than you ever would (with this iq you exhibit) . . . and its a fact

now back to my question , DOES HONOUR MEAN MONEY? and IS A PASTOR A LABOURER?

try to give me a straight answer this time okay

author=Sincere 9gerian]We can complain about govt as much we want but
the reality is that our actions and inactions as individuals also goes
along way in determining what becomes of our country.

Take the issue of high unemployment rate for instance, do you know that
your failure to patronise MADE IN NIGERIA products help to worsen
unemployment? Do you know that the more MADE IN NIGERIA products you
patronise, the more job is created, which in turns help to reduce
unemployment rate?

For every MADE IN NIGERIA product you and I patronise, we increase the
DEMAND for workers along the chain in the PRODUCTION and DISTRIBUTION of
that product- from the sourcing of the raw materials, to the production
of finished product, distribution and marketing.

Therefore, how many Nigerians CONSCIOUSLY patronise MADE IN NIGERIA
products? By consciously, I meant deliberately asking for MADE IN
NIGERIA products when we go shopping.

Fortunately, most MADE IN NIGERIA products are genuine and also of good
quality when compared to imported ones. For instance, MADE IN NIGERIA
drugs are the best when available. If you buy a MADE IN NIGERIA
anti-malaria drugs, you'r 99% sure you've bought genuine drugs. Ditto
other MADE IN NIGERIA drugs and pharmaceuticals. High quality rice
milled in Nigeria are the FRESHEST you can get. MADE IN NIGERIA electric
cables are the best. And so and so forth.

Therefore, when next you go out to buy, ask for MADE IN NIGERIA
products[/quote]so from your post i am right to deduce that if you invite me to your home and i take an inventory of ALL you belongings and properties . . . At least 60% of them are MADE IN NIGERIA ?
