Efunsetun, her name just escaped my mind

Many others esp the old-school ones

Um sorry but even though some of us arent offended by the dumb cartoon, it IS meant as a jab at Obama not Pelosi and such

If it was to Pelosi, they would have made the chimp with obvious feminine characteristics, with LIPSTICK and such.

It wasnt Pelosi who signed the bill, it wasnt her who went to various states asking citizens to support the bill. It was all Obama

The cartoon didnt have to literally say "Someone else will have to SIGN the Stimulus Bill" to know that it was aimed at Obama

Sorry people.

He does not want to move out, meaning my sister lives with his parents, which is the main problem. The mother orders my sister about a lot, to clean the house, cook etc, when she is looking after her own baby at the same time also (her husband is a doctor, meaning he’s only at home during late nights). I would say that’s fair enough as the wife has duties, but that mother also has a daughter of similar age, a son of her own too and she doesn’t get ordered to do anything. The husband himself is a nice guy but when the mum gets mad, she tells him to do bad things, such as one time she ordered him to cut my sister’s hair off, and hit her many times etc.

She should have shined her eyes before getting married to an agbaya. What kind of man gets married and keeps his wife in his parents' home? That is a not a man. She married a boy. Doctor or not.

Foolish girl is 35. Her mates are celebrating isomoloruko, she's stll celebrating BaffDay

I love the two shows but Family Guy does it for me. I think King of the Hill is  underrated. That show beats The  Simpsons and FG IMHO.

King Of The Hill definitely beats Simpsons

Simpsons stopped being funny in the late 90s. They need to take that show out of its misery.

God is white?

anyway what kind yeye fight is this between you two?

I do not think anyone who does not understand Yoruba would fully enjoy that movie, I do not bother to
tell my non Yoruba friends to watch it.

Perhaps you should find friends that know how to read

Jarus is definitely not the type one would ever invite to a party. Talk about a humorless party pooper

Lmao Sisi, I'll sooner take that than all of the "blockbuster" Seth Rogan movies that arent even half as amusing.

Ellyptical:
I just browsed through the first part of the movie on youtube and what greeted me on the opening was a Yoruba line. Men! Guys, Lets be real and practical for this once. The movie may no doubt be nice (I bet its better than a lot of Nollywood Movies), but not everyone enjoys watching a movie that they have to look off the faces of the actor to look at the bottom of the screen just to understand the words of the actors.
I noticed that Yoruba movies are not really that bad, but the nollywood movies which are predominantly Igbo, sell more and get more air time on DSTV because the producers realise that language is a key factor. Thats the same reason why Yoruba movies are hardly heard of outside the west while Nollywood movies are very popular in the Caribbean and in other African countries.

Slumdog Millionaire
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1010048/

They've just denied me of an opportunity to enjoy a nice movie 

PS: They should work towards putting the movie on a DVD with multiple voicings. .  . . .by then, they'll have to worry about lip-synching.  . . . but that's about the only way they can remedy the situation.

No offense but you have absolutely NO idea on what you are yarning. Slumdog that you are going on about, isnt it 80% Hindi? Why didnt they make it 100% English to "appeal to people"? Are you aware of how many NON ENGLISH speaking movies that have won Oscars and what not?

That's one of the many things I respect YMG for, the fact that they're not SELL OUTS and stick to their language. Only illiterates with ADD have problems with subtitled movies.

Anyone that isnt in denial knows that the quality of Nollywood movies (story wise) have gone down drastically ever since they decided to be English only. They copy American movies woefully with fake accents and the movies are now all garbage compared to when the movies were made in Igbo. Just because Jamaican hairdressers watch Nollywood doesnt mean it's good. Tunde Kelani has had his movies shown in respected International film festivals, actors speaking Yoruba and all. Name ONE Nollywood movie that can say the same.

The day YMG goes down the same embarrassing route as Nollywood is the day I make sure Im in Nigeria to deal with them. Shio. YMG has the support of the Yorubas and non-Yorubas that can read. They dont need anyone else. Afterall even Jenifa which is huge in Naija now is loved by non Yorubas as well.

Rofl.

but alot of naija women will welcome their husbands even if its 10 pm,run his bath for him and give him food

and still taken advantaged of. One thing I will give western women is that at least they dont tolerate nonsense.

I am the queen of that "art", mr man. Unlike some people, I dont have to hide behind another name to do so.

do you guys remember the cartoon they had of Barrack and Michelle in the white house with Michelle holding an AK-47 during the primaries

That one was funny. Buy a sense of a humor.

Some foolish katakata woman he married shot him to death from an argument about he not running her bath water.
and called the police to report her crime.
That man will still be breathing if he'd married a Nigerian .
Our own craze no reach like that at all.
How can a woman murder the father of her children over bathwater?

Im not sure whether to laugh or cry

davidylan:
its not often i agree with you but you are right on the money . . . well except the marrying you part of it.

you've joined the "bash Michelle's looks" crew?

davidylan:
and what's the percentage of black women to white? If Obama had a cutsy like Palin for wife he would not have had any trouble at all.
Black women would simply have remained another inconsequential statistic . . . forced to vote for at least a black face than McCain.

Um No. Oprah would have made them all vote for Hiliary.

Osisi what happened to the dude in Texas?  

spoilt:
True that.  [s]Why would Obama want a white woman when he has michelle[/s]?  

I doubt it. Black American women would have gone crazy.

I kept on saying "Be glad it's not some akata" I'd be a bloody aunt and they'd be grandparents by now if she was.

Mad people, contraceptives no dey in their dictionary.

spoilt:
I rejoice when they go after them. I dont try to stop them. I just sit by my window, watching my clock to see when they crawl back over the hill broke and accused of battery. heheheheehehe.  

I assure you, if Michelle was white, he wouldnt be president. It would be a Hilary presidency.

At least white chics for the most part always have a backup of diaphragm and birth control.

As long as he's not caught in a "Shenika" web osisi, you shouldnt worry

debosky:
You can't step up to your naija sisters so you took a shortcut to Utah? Good luck with your inbred wife.  

Rofl. Ika ni e sha. You know his excuse will be "Naija girls are greedy, materalistic, fake" blah blah blah
