Yeah, doesn't seem complicated to me though

The three sisters are the most powerful in my opinion

They can manipulate people and force you to do something against your wish

They can manipulate the strucker kids too

They might not be able to manipulate d strucker kids, remember how that mutant couldn't stop their grandfather from using his powers. I think d struckers are immune to other mutant's power working on them. My thoughts tho

In my own place (idemili in Anambra) d bride price is about #30 naira. D woman's family provides what is to be eaten on d trad wedding day. If d man decides to bring all his kindred and football team, then he will be asked to chip in for d food and drinks. he must bring all that is in d list though, if he can't bring all, he can talk with his father in-law and he will talk with d family members on his behalf. Then for d white wedding d man's family will take care of d expenses. During d dance at d trad wedding, d money recovered will be shared between d man and d woman

Variety has released their Top 20 TV Series Of 2017, and I gotta say, it's quite a little baffling and a little satisfying.

20 - Mary Kills People (Never heard of this show till now, and since it's on Lifetime it makes sense, since I don't patronize any show from that cable channel at all. Their shows most often than not tend to be too soapish for my taste)
19 - One Mississippi (I thoroughly enjoyed the first season of this Amazon show. Glad it made the cut.
18 - Wynonna Earp (Tried several times to get into this show as it's highly rated, but just couldn't. Maybe it's the titular character or just the general atmosphere of the show... there is something that seems utterly pretentious about it that turns me off Every.Single.Time. But quite a few people loved it, I guess - hence it's 18th spot on the list.
17 - Black-ish (Might not be the funniest show on tv, but, if there is one thing it has going for it, it's consistency. Should be higher on the list imo)
16 - Fresh Off The Boat (Another consistently witty show that should be higher on the list)
15 - Big Little Lies (Okay, whomever compiled this list be trippin. What! Should be a top 10 show in the very least.
14 - Insecure (Well placed)
13 - Handmaid's Tale (Should be higher)
12 - Superstore (Should be lower. A quick swap with Fresh Off The Boat would have worked wonders for the credibility of this list)
11 - Into The Badlands (Hmmm... the second season kinda lets it down, else, it would have been a top 5 show of the year)
10 - Brooklyn Nine-Nine (I used to love this show, don't anymore. Still a top comedy anyhow, so...)
09 - American Vandal (Well placed. This show did a fantastic job of trolling Making a Murderer. Lolz. Top marks.)
08 - Alias Grace (Hmmm... quite too literal for my taste. If I wanted a literal story, I would read a novel. Should be lower on the list: a quick swap with Handmaid's Tale would have worked)
07 - Better Things (Season one: outstanding. Season two: meh. Should be lower)
06 - Jane The Virgin (Haven't seen it and have absolutely no interest in doing so, so ought not to judge. But, it's a CW show, so... automatically, it should be MUCH lower)
5 - Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (A CW show, so automatically should be much much lower, maybe 19th... perhaps?)
4 - Halt And Catch Fire (Well placed)
3 - The Good Place (Well placed. a top comedy)
2 - One Day At A Time (For real?? Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the comedy, but methinks it's ridiculous placing it in the 2nd spot. I don't even think it's a top 10 show tbh.)
1 - Leftovers ( I remember saying sometime ago that this show is the best on tv at the moment... well, I feel kinda vindicated right now. Season 3 is not as powerful and compelling as season 2 but it still brought tears to my eyes.)

NYSC / Re: UNN 2016 Graduate Appeal To NYSC to Extend The Uploading Of Senate List by jaylicioussss(f): 10:59pm On Oct 25, 2017
This is sad indeed. I just saw this same letter, attached by someone on Nysc's official facebook page and the NYSC account replied to the plea with "The school has the time table"
meaning they probably can't do anything at this point. I don't understand how UNN allowed this kind of mess, because I am sure they had all the time to compile and send this list, yet they delayed Now making the students suffer for it. I suggest you all keep pleading in all platforms, just maybe NYSC will reconsider.

I have no idea, I have been checking the nysc list for my younger ones but still no record found. Guess they are yet to upload, hopefully they will do so soon.
john4aguero:


Please do you know whether UNN have uploaded the list online?
NYSC / Re: Prospective NYSC 2017 Batch B Corps Members by jaylicioussss(f): 6:06pm On Oct 23, 2017
If you graduated this 2017 that's the set of people Senate will be sitting for on the 25th and it means you won't be going for batch b. Unn does not send fresh graduates for any batch that is not A. if you had issues but was to graduate in 2016, or you wrote a first semester non final course this year. then you can expect to be mobilized for this batch b.

Bro... none o. Senate is yet to sit for result sef. I fear we will miss this batch... Except NYSC can still allow school upload list why the registration begins

That you like a character shouldn't make you bias about another, when one does something stupid, it is ok to call them out, but when they change and do something worthy. It is also ok to give them the credit. It is just unfair to keep judging the character based on his/her previous mistakes. Sansa was born with stupidity as a blanket but she grew to shed that cloth off. She is still making mistakes yes, so is everyone else. Heck our dear NK couldn't even kill two dragons with his gold winning javelin skills, Arya is our darling but here she is accusing Sansa of lots and let's not forget she has been reckless. Hey but we still love her, we forgive Jon, dany and tyrion for their mistakes. Sansa deserves such too. And if the NK kills everyone in GOT he too deserves our love.....
Pls pm the insult you have for me. Don't derail the thread with them.

Some of people are just here questioning loop holes and what not. People are kind enough to give some clarification, they will still find a way to put holes in that answer too. Charley do your own damn research too na. or wait till Monday for smarter people to write a review and give you clarification.

I don't understand the hate for Sansa o, to me she is one of the people who has found a way to round their character. Remember Sansa of those days, dumb as fvck! Annoying and the first on my strangle list. look at her now, she has evolved, she saved Jon's life (battle of the bastards) She didn't leave Cersie without picking up few of her tricks. She was able to understand how Ramsey thinks and advised Jon to that effect. She is being careful with little finger, knowing how cunning and dubious he can be. The fact she is alive is something, pls you guys should cut her some slack, she too has been through enough.

emperormossad:

Which set were you by the way?
2012, not Medicine o. Pure and and industrial chemistry. I doubt that any good student will wait to be appreciated before delivering excellence. Your goal in school is to acquire knowledge, whether you are rewarded for doing this or not, shouldn't even be a priority. Except if the lecturers are found wanting or something like that. I honestly do not see reward as a core motivation for a student. My opinion though.

As a best graduating student or first class holder in Unn, you get automatic employment in the school. It is written on the banner that it is from the student's association na. That banner cost 3k to print highest.

Methinks you're confusing SENIOR partnership with ordinary partnership (Junior). They aren't the same oo. The former wields considerable power a firm, a member of the board, and can even be a managing partner, while the later has a stake at the firm but not important enough to make decisions that would impact it's general welfare, and most of all, defer to the senior partners.
Which did Donna get?

I did an internet research on this shortly after seeing the episode. It's not possible for a non-legal individual to become a SENIOR partner in a law firm anywhere in the US except in DC.

Even though their office in Suit is said to be in new york. i just googled to know if the rise in position was possible at all. I was told it is. Anyway what do you expect from a show that had a fraud practice law for years
TV/Movies / Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by jaylicioussss(f): 10:27pm On Jul 13, 2017
I don't know what the writers are trying to do, by making Donna partner. Though I Googled to check if it is possible, and I was told it is, but how will her story pan exactly? According to some states in UK and US, a non legal some can be partner, but they didn't have to play it out here. I am more concerned with Harvey dating his former therapist. Really? pls they shouldn't disappoint me with shitty writing this season o

Someone explain dat part were they shot "Jesus" on American gods...

I didn't get WTF happened dere.
You know every episode they start with showing us how a god came to America, how the people that worship the gods move to America, with their belongings and their religion. So that episode started with how Jesus of Mexico came. I think that part, they tried to replay the Jesus story as it is in the bible. Like in the bible Jesus walked on the sea, as you also saw 'him' do in that episode. Jesus was killed by the jews, his own people, as you also saw Christians with rosary shoot him in the series. Jesus died to save man, as he did in that episode. He took a bullet for the man and his family. if you've ever seen a picture of the sacred heart of Jesus, you will see the similarities between the shape of the heart in the pictures and the shape of the blood that stained the cloth of Jesus in series when he was shot. Also the series Jesus died with his hands spread out like it did on the cross. I hope with this few points of mine I have been able to convince you and not to confuse you that Jehove bu Eze kajard! lol

Abegiii!!!! Why will it not have good ratings? It centers on the female folk and the subjugation they suffer in the society.
loool you just dey para. I think the few episodes I have seen are really good, the producers what you to feel the way you are feeling, irritated and angry. they will later feed on that feeling when the women starts to fight back. I don't think this is an anti feminist series, I suspect a lot of women power raining will soon fall on us from the series. I also think that before this picture of submissive women they now paint, there was a time when the women tried to fight back but lost or got killed, so they are now low key plotting their take over.




oh and on American gods. the guy playing Anubis is a Nigerian... Chris obi or so.
