You were very happy when you single? Are you sure?

Cuz one can't be happy and choose to throw that happiness away!!!!

Use your head girl

There's happy, there's happier.

People leave their good jobs for a better one, doesn't mean they were not happy on the good job.

Look at your girl here.

Apparently, the feelings is mutual.

SUBTLE REMINDER MY SCUMRADES

Guyman, forget that thing.

We go disqualify Atletico.

South Eastern, South Southern soups are always a joy to enjoy.

KingTom:
Bro some Karlebs were actually applauding CR7 for scoring against them in that game, you can go and check it out again You no go blame them though, the goal too sweet

I repeat, some of you should be ashamed of yourselves.

I have never celebrated CR7 goal against United, the last one he scored against us at Juventus, I was so angry that I celebrated joyfully when Mata scored that free kick. I even mocked CR7 on one of threads here for the comeback.

The fellow who claimed to not like CR7 because he broke his heart actually love Messi, a player largerly responsible for his club"s UCL final loss on two good occasions.

No be juju be that?

WhoDeyHause:
What shame? He said he's not asslicking Ronaldo. Leave him alone. What you should be more worried about is your club being better so you will see a trophy.

Na you need the shame pass.

patrickmuf:
It's down to preference so make una die that talk...Same Ronaldo left us before hitting his prime and delivered his best football for Madrid in the process knocking us out and even celebrating when he scored against us as a Juve player but no, as fans we must love him...

Try to have some shame.

DECLAN2015:
The article is about messi but u still drag cr7 to it
Is there any players that has been criticize more than cr7
Just one criticism for little gaot...u are foaming in the mouth.
Truth is bitter...he has not been of any real advantage to them

It's nice to see Messi get criticised because we don't see that often.

It's like there is a media ban on his criticism.

Let him feel the heat too.

Beverlyjean:
Is that English or what?

The guy silently killed English.

More worse ko, more better ni.

Magnoliaa:
I'm curious about how they all seem to have the same letters starting their names, with almost similar sounds. A thing with characterization and secret among script writers?

Even Jack Bauer, James Bond.

That letter J na vawulent letter.

Ellexy:
But these United fans for here always attacking Ronnie and promoting Messi needs to be arrested or something cos I don't understand

United fans for that matter oo no be say na shekpites or gayners..

Keep up the good work Doc�

It can be horrifying to watch. They just wait for a draw or loss and take it all out on Ronaldo.

It's just too shameful. If Ronaldo can not feel at home on a United thread, where else will he?

Real Madrid fans even value him more than some peeps here, no be juju be that?

By your definition, all Mountain of members are witches and wizards.

DaBogu:
I don’t like to remember or talk about my prison experience, the reason why I have been mute about it all through. The life there is sickening! It is an experience that can drain you for life. I’m not talking about prison in general, I’m talking about the the NIGERIAN PRISON. Nigeria is ruined tbh. And I don’t think we would ever get out of this terrible state till death. I am not being negative, I’m a very optimistic person but I have seen it all trust me.

To start with, I think Nigeria is the only country where you are accused for something and without proof or evidence to show, you can be in jail for the rest of your life. If you know you don’t have families to fight for you, please don’t be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Do you know there are teenagers in the Nigerian prison Small boys barely 18 are there for Crimes they did not commit or know absolutely nothing about?

While I was there, there was this boy they always call chin- chin in my cell. I kept wondering why they always called him that and asked him one day - Guy come here, why do they call you chin-chin all the time? guess his reply? “i was hungry and I stole chin chin” that was what brought him to prison. He looked gentle. I was 100% sure the boy is barely 20 years old. My heart was filled with tears but I could not cry so he doesn’t feel too bad. I asked again, are you sure that is what brought you here? He said “nothing else bro” and I was shocked! I guess he does not have people to fight for him, or probably his parents/family are tired of trying. If you know what it cost to get out of prison, you will be shocked! Everything I’m saying to you right now is real. No jokes. There was another young guy, I was particular about these young boys cos I kept wondering what they would have done to be in prison. If you see guys 30-40 years old in there, true or not you will lowkey feel they committed the crime. But not these young boys.

There was this boy, he works for his oga, the oga just came one day and accused him of stealing 200k from his shop. The boy said he barely stayed 3 days in a police cell before he was brought to prison. A boy barely 20 years old! No proper investigation, nothing was done! I thought Prison was for people with serious cases. people who have been convicted for crimes committed with “evidence” or they were caught in the act When did it turn a place for keeping suspects like small boys? You know what made this particular case worse? It is the fact that the parent/ family of the boy wanted to settle out of court. Saying sir, please give us 2 months, we would pay so and so monthly to cover up but the OGA did not agree. It was hurting!!!

The boy, I had to ask him again, Just gist me guy, did you move this money? He was like “bros, we are here together. There is absolutely nothing to be corny about, I did not steal his money.” Argh! I lost hope in Nigeria! This time a tear dropped!

I’m talking about serving you garri with no sugar! Just raw garri in plates. No sugar, water, milk or anything to it. Just raw garri for your chewing pleasure. There are about 3 or 4 foods in the Nigerian prison. Watery beans and dead ass garri. The garri are those ones that blind your eyes over time when you eat them too much. Yes you heard me correctly. At some point, these inmates don’t see properly again, cos too much of this garri.

The other is Eba and egusi, they won’t even make the eba well to start with, talk more of the egusi, it feels like hell fire. Egusi that taste like water. Guys what does water taste like again? It is tasteless!!! And they served rice. Will be honest with you guys, this was the only average food I could eat. Not cos it was sweet, but aspa u can chew rice alone now. Cos the stew was trash. Imagine putting 2-3 spoons of stew inside 2 paint of rice. Yeah that’s what it felt like. It was hell. That was the only food every one eats, cos at least you can eat raw rice and still be fine Let’s leave the food part.

We move to the numbers in the cells. Here is probably the toughest part of it all, if it’s time to sleep, it’s time to cry. Think about this, look at your room; look around very well. It is just you right? Yeah it’s comfort and you don’t want anyone else. Imagine if your room had like 200 people inside it. Just the thought of it alone is sickening right? That’s how the NIGERIAN PRISON is. Imagine them placing like over 200 inmates in one room. Now forget about if They committed the crimes or not. Actualize what I’m saying here. A small room filled with 200+ people. Do you know what it feels like You can’t even fucking breath ! Talkless of sleeping !!!

I fucking paid to sleep under a bed! Yes there are payments in the Nigerian prison. Everytime they bring in a new inmate, the prison guards are angry and its understandable. The marshals of each cell are angry and it is understandable. Too many persons, too little space!

I paid about N10,0000 (10k) to sleep under a bed. Full time bed space cost about 30k or so. I could not afford that at that time. If you would keep inmates, for crimes committed or not! At least put them in a safe and comfortable place. Not like you are leaving them to die. Imagine me paying 10k to sleep under a bed. You should understand what it felt like to sleep in the general place. They sleep on top of each other. Yehhhh! You heard me right. They sleep in chains! People sleep on top of you.

U can’t fucking move your legs! Ah I was ready to go to hell then. Cos earth was trash and the life and stress was not worth it. Guys, there are thousands of inmates who did not do shit and are in jail! The Nigerian police do not do proper investigation, please watch yourselves.

Know your movements and do not stay out too late. You could be the next person for doing absolutely nothing. Nigeria can never be better. Care for yourself and your family till

You go read this kain I thread and you no go aspire to maguire your way out of the shit hole?

Last time I checked, upto 97 percent of careers I know allows a woman to have a family in peace.

See that Agege bridge?

...and these idiots only attack guys.

That's one of the pain of using something like bootstrap.

You don't decide what it leaves or includes on different screens.

Havertz10:
I know it's politics but we can and should discuss it, can tinubu actually win the election and for those that understand the way he runs his orbit, can such structure work nationally to win a reelection and what are his economic policies that might irrespective of his politics benefit nigerians

My take on tinubu is that his government will be structurally corrupt, I mean regulations in Lagos are a joke, and tinubu has a hand in all that, look at lastma or touts, I think that running is an ego trip for him, there is no grand goal or agenda irrespective of the bullshit that he campaigns with

Buhari has his flaws but he made real efforts to curb structural corruption in nigeria, tinubu will just reopen those leakages



Tinubu is going to create a crony state and the damages that it will cause can't be estimated

Can he win? I think he has enough sway to get apc ticket, among apc big wigs, he holds serious clouts nationally, added benefit that he is a Muslim


Depends on who pdp picks, I think atiku will lose to tinubu, he is such a weak opponent, an igbo candidate will totally rule but nigerian govt have maybe intentionally always soiled the image of any igbo politician gaining national attention, so finding an igbo man to sell to the north will be hard, they need a candidate with national acclaim, that's also very smart, you will get most southern states, plus the east, you can sell him to the north and vs tinubu, you might stand a chance cause northerners are very independent, tinubu hierarchical method of control will meet plenty opposition


So if pdp aren't very reasonable with their pick, it's safe to say that tinubu will be the next president, 5 steps backwards

If APC should win the election then it will be Tinubu. Sad part is that, he will do 8 years if he wins this election.

But Atiku is still a strong opposition, the strongest PDP has now.

If they field any other candidate aside Atiku, APC and Tinubu will eat them raw.

The suffer na NYSC.

When that lady realized her partner is a swindler, she immediately thought of swindling the swindler and she executed it perfected even as a newbie.

That's to tell you, having people's trust is basically all it takes to be a scammer. When you gain people's trust, you won't be scamming innocent people but seasoned scammers.

Scamming big companies is not even that hard, people are just scared because it has grave consequences.

Allen102:
Drag me to hell. That movie is crazy.

Is it horror?

MJBOLT:

I've not heard of any scientist that pulled off a scam on the level of hushpuppi, Charles Ponzi or Jordan Belfort,like I said everybody has his area of expertise.

Whether they are the smartest people or not is irrelevant.

My argument is that fraudsters can not make significant positive changes in the society because they are as smart as the average Joe.

A certain Charles Dawson fooled the whole scientific community with fake fossils for 40 years.

MJBOLT:

do you even know what science is?? in science they are always proving and disproving things
How does John Dalton claim translate to a scam.
Many years ago Pluto was said to be a planet later on it was changed,is that one a scam also??

We are talking about financial scam,you are mentioning atoms

No be you talk say scientists no fit scam?

Did you know that some scientists purposely gave incorrect hypothesis just so they can have an invention to their name?

Let's leave science.

If fraudsters are so smart then Nigerian politicians should be the smartest people on earth. But then, look at the country.

Nickshrapnel:
Dalton postulated, he didn’t claim.

Pardon my non-use of the term.

MJBOLT:

Yahoo boys dey use format, students dey use textbook,all na the same,just to boost their knowledge.

I swear, this your reply cracked me up.

MJBOLT:

your analogy is flawed because intelligence is subjective.
Same way hushpuppi cannot perform surgery or cure cancer is the same way a doctor or scientist cannot pull off a scam, everybody have their area of expertise.

Scientist can not pull off scam or what did you say?

John Dalton claimed atom is the smallest, indivisible particle of an element, years later, it was proved that atom can be further divided into smaller particles.

Although baba did it out of ignorance but who knew maybe he just wanted to fool (scam) us for years.

There are a lot of scam in science. Trust me.

MJBOLT:

Oga, scamming is hard, there's a reason Yahoo boys keep their formats and even sell them to aspiring Yahoo boys.you think it's easy coming up with a plan to defraud a person or multiple people.

You know how many months most of those Yahoo boys dey bomb before them catch client.

Scamming is hard but yahoo boys are the dullest people I know.

You sef see wetin you call am, format. It's just steps to do things.

Format dey everywhere, for free sef.

oyaskii:
Scamming is not hard not hard when your end game is a $50 iTunes gift card.

But fleecing a multi national company of millions of dollars, you will need more than guts...you actually have to be intelligent and be detailed.

Saw a docu on fraud one time, when the "G-guy" said his "client" had home in 3 states in the US and transverse between these homes, so he had to learn all the patterns patterning to these states i.e Major banks, major streets, holidays, thier congress men, how to clone the zip codes in these states, major companies and and who are on the boards of these companies. He said he basically created a character with these information and the client thought he lived 4 streets from her for a whole year . Tell me a country won't progress if a collective put this "said guts and intelligent to good use".

And the armed robber not doing well in the war front doesn't analogy doesn't fly here because they are different scenarios.

How does it not fly?

Anyone can buy a gun to terrorize innocent civilians but take them to army barrack maybe they won't be shouting for their mummy in a months time.

Fraudsters intelligence are always overhyped. Many of them just play on ignorance and trust.

Did you see how easy it was for the last girl to swindle the intelligent seasoned swindler?

If they are so smart, let them find a cure for cancer or solve a murder case or perform a successful surgery with prior knowledge of surgery.

A lot of people are not into fraud because of their dignity, not because they can't defraud.

oyaskii:
Invictus another Don...This one cloned a company's account officers mail and ordered $12m to himself and it took days before they knew what was happening

9ja guy's doings they fear me iswear...the neatness and attention to detail na top notch...if they actually put these intellect to use here, Nigeria will be a super nation.

Scamming is actually not very hard. It just takes gut.

It's like saying armed robbers would do well in war front.

DieRich5:
Queen of the north
Happy Birthday Sophie Turner

Is she related to Wale Turner?

HardMirror:
why are some of you guys so full of bitterness like this. Better change for your own good. Just called the guy monkey as if he collected your wife. This is terrible.

People can be really jealous. The irony is that, if they were the one in his shoes they would flaunt it in everybody's face.

helovesnyash:
All BScs aren’t created equal. If you have a BsC in Food Science from Ekpoma, yes you’re looking up at women with Ivy League degrees.

If we insist that there are objective standards (skin tone, height, physique, eye shape/color, facial symmetry, head of hair etc) of beauty then by that reasoning certain groups must necessarily be more attractive than others since these traits aren’t distributed equally among groups. So if you stack up the 100 most attractive men from every racial/ethnic group I think yes by most universal standards of beauty they would all be decently attractive. But there would also be an attraction ranking and I’m not sure the finest African men rank highest. Or hey by that point it should all be a subjective thing as it always is.

What if I'm the one who has a degree from Oxford and want a woman what a degree from UNILAG?

Subjective ke? Why did Agbani Dirego win Miss World? The fact that someone is not of a certain color doesn't mean they're not good looking.

See, your agreements and the OP's thread has been from the points of weakness.

This is why I still maintain my specs for a wife and will never compromise.

I don’t want my children thinking they can't get the most beautiful lady or the most handsome man because they might not be upto par as per physical attraction and thereby settling for things like health and intelligence.

How would you think it's hard to get a good looking partner with good health or intelligence?

helovesnyash:
Going by your definition of what constitutes attraction, yes a 23 year old Majid Michael/Van Vicker still has a lot of room to marry up. You're the one who's elevated skin tone to this very important thing, so by your logic, marrying a white person even nets you more exterior attraction points. Maybe you never want to travel beyond your tribal confines then you're good. But your kids may one day want to. You can't control that.

There's nothing wrong with it though. Attraction (which to me really boils down to good health, perfect reproductive fitness) matters in this world, so I really empathize with people doing all they can to climb up the charts. I'm an average looking dude and may have one or two small things to moan about when I look into the mirror every morning but overall I'm thankful for the cards I was dealt. What I really wish I had was a top percentile IQ >160 and also know really early from the age of 4-6 that I have it. That kind of IQ gets me traveling down some very interesting paths throughout my life while also granting that looking like a 6'5 blue eyed blonde European male model with an average IQ can also make life pretty fun. I just love that top percentile IQ world that much more.

I get your points.

But I would like to stress that by having a spec, I am not marrying up!
It's important that you know this fact because I'm in my shoes, not you.

It's like saying I'm marrying up if I stress that my woman must have a B. Sc.

Also, an attractive person is attractive anywhere in the world. These are facts man.
