This can only happen when you don't have life outside the internet

Kinda.

The internet has made doing business and connecting with people a lot easier, but everything that has a positive, most times also has a negative side to it. These days, a lot of people have gotten so addicted to social media websites like Instagram, Facebook, Twitter etc and heavy use of these social media sites have negative effects on people. Below are 5 negative ways social media might be affecting you negatively.






1. It Might Make You Live a Fake Life

So many live fake lives on social media. Even the ones that at one time swore never to do that find themselves doing so at one point. Girls posing inside a strangers car to take a picture just so they can post on Facebook and look big. Guys posting pictures of expensive drinks and raw cash that ain't theirs. So many people are so quick to post a 'picture perfect' photo, or talk about the expensive restaurant they ate at; most of them don't even allow themselves to have fun naturally anymore, they just act like they are having fun for the camera.




2. Exposure to Cyber Bullying

The more you use social media and post pictures of yourself and speak about your life, the more you leave room for cyber bullying. They are people that might have shitty lives and derive pleasure from bullying people on social media with their words just so they can feel better. A girl might post a picture of herself on her Instagram page, and a random follower of hers might make fun of her flat chest, or dress sense. A single celebrity might post a picture of her/his new car and some people will abuse her/him of still being single at her/his age.





3. Little Privacy

Heavy social medias users document their whole lives online. This leaves little room for privacy, as they post pictures of their homes, where they eat, their family members, their cars, and so on. I have been guilty of doing this in the past, and i know how it affected me at some point. It is always good to leave some details of oneself off the Internet.




4. Bad Social Life in the Real World

The more you use social media, the worse you would be at socializing with real people in the real world, and this is even worse if you were never really good at socializing with people in real life to begin with. I went to a bar with three of my friends yesterday, and at some point, I noticed all of us had our faces down reading something on our phone screens, or typing away. I had to switch off my phone data and spark up a conversation I know would get their attentions off the social media sites on their phones.



As I said before, I am also guilty of some of these things, but I try to check myself when I am going too deep into the social media world. Sometimes I dump my smartphone for several weeks and go online only on my laptop. Sometimes, I set a target to stay off the internet for a full week. And I notice how much I interact with real people more during these times.






5. Decreased Productivity

The first thing most people check when they wake up in the morning is their Facebook...then maybe they on the various Whatsapp groups they belong to. This kind of overuse and over-dependency on social media automatically leads to decreased productivity at the workplace. You have workers surfing Facebook and Instagram on their phones at work when they are meant to be working. Social media consumes more time than people realize, and this time could have been put to some good use.

somebody02:
sir?? 12 months Kwa. we talking bout u getting hundreds of them.
bros , u re not thinking like a farmer o. sorry aee you a farmer?
abeg anyone with idea noilers laying capability?

selling at dressed value won't make so much sense.
what's average kg do you think they will be after??

I heard they lay one egg in two days...I mean female Noilers.

obakovich:
Noilers will be best if u keep dem for 12mnths, at least aftet 4month let deem be free range no need to feed dem make dem hussle

12 months ke

barnabas47:
sir what is the market acceptability of the noiler compare to broiler in ur area.thanks

Broilers are more acceptable than Noilers. If it was just about business and money, I would not even touch Noilers at all...it is just cos they fascinate me. People don't even know what Noilers are at this point, so they price them very low cos the chickens look like local chickens.

somebody02:
evening house.
raised some noilers myself, hundreds of them like that.
to the best of my knowledge. i dont think they fall into category of birds farmers will make money as such.
they eat as much as broilers, really! and the FCR is way less than that of broilers.
-one will wait for almost 16 weeks to raise some perfect birds for what?
-another issue I've got as to that, the birds are not really known that well. so it's hard fpr customers to buy them. I'll selling the females as old layers, that's what I told folks. they are old layers, buy n go.
I've heard folks saying they are cockerels. they are untested ground n people don't really know them at allllllll(end buyers, not fellow farmers).
the only advantage I've got is that they stood out. one get to see broilers in their thousands at the market but only a few noilers.

Very true. People don't really know them. I tried to explain to some market women that they are a hybrid...like a cross between local chickens and Broilers, it was like I was speaking jargon. They thought some of the Noilers were local chickens, they thought some were Cockerels, and thought the females were old layers. I just left it at that. It can be frustrating. I think the best thing would be to sell it killed and dressed to frozen food people or restaurants who buy per KG.

EMMAACHILE:
My noilers hardly stay quiet like yours here. Very hard to take their weights with the camera. My wife will place them on the scale while i try to take the shots with a camera and in a second or two, they have jumped off.

Haha! Same with mine. It took me and my bother several minutes before we could take the pictures. You can see my brother's hand ready to catch them as they jump off the scale in some of the pictures.

Pictures of my 11 weeks Noilers weighing average of 1.8kg. Sorry my phone camera is not so sharp, but if you look well, you would see the chickens weigh pretty close to 2kg.


My next mission will be getting Noilers to 3.5kg in 14 weeks.

EMMAACHILE:
I also noticed that broiler finisher increases the weight when compared to chick mash and grower feed.

Ofcos.

EMMAACHILE:
At 8 weeks, I get about 1.6kg on some of my noilers but some are like 800g.

That's great. It is really just that difference in size that is the big problem with Noilers.

Yippee! I made it. They are 11 weeks today, and the biggest one of them is 1.9kg. The only downside is that the females are still small...weighing just about 1.3kg averagely. If they could make it that you could buy females separately, and males separately, Noilers would be a great breed.


Most of the male are 1.8 kg and above. I will upload pictures of them on the scale this afternoon. I believe if fed well, Noilers can get to 4kg. Because this ones still looks really small, but when you put them on scale, you will be surprised at their weight. I moved my Noilers to Lagos two days ago, and in my family house, my brother has a Gigantic looking cockerel. The cockerel looked two times the size of my chickens, but when I put it on the scale, it weighed just 2.1kg. Just a few hundred grams heavier than mine.

Denrele has come a long way...i don't think insults from people get to him any longer.

Please feel free to contribute to what I have written. Thank you.

I was actually going to make the title- '10 Ways to Make 100k in 7 Days' but I couldn't come up with ten ways to make 100k in 7 days. Hmm! It boggles my mind. So, anyway, I would need help from my fellow Nairalanders on this. I am going to write on 3 ways to make 100k within 7 days, but you can add more ideas. This article might really help someone out there in this recession.


Below are three ways to make 100k in 7 days.


1. Sell an Information
Yea, this is called info marketing. For example, I personally know how men can last longer in bed, so I wrote a book on it, and sell to men that need that information. I used to advertise the book on Facebook, but now I just either leave the link to the sales page in my Nairaland signature, or leave the link in my comment on Linda Ikeji's blog. I sell the book at N5,000...selling 20 copies in one week will give me 100K.

So, to break it down. Find answer to a problem a lot of people have, put that answer in writing, and sell as an eBook to buyers. You can use the marketing ideas I spoke about above, or you can use paid advertising, and advertise on Facebook, Google, or even your daily newspaper. Ideas on what information to sell? How to remove stretchmarks naturally. How to make money online. How to get a job with an oil company. How to get a Canadian visa...etc. Be creative. And the book does't have to be long. My ebook for one minute men is just ten pages.


2. Sell Some of Your Valuables
If you desperately need that 100k, and you are sure what you want to use the 100k for would bring more money, I don't see anything wrong in selling some of your valuable items like- your laptop, your phone, some of your clothes, your shoes, your TV, etc. Just advertise it on Nairaland, and I am sure you would get people to buy in no time.


3. Offer a Service
I am sure there is something you can do that a lot of people can't. Till this day, there are still hundreds of thousands of people that want to own a blog that don't know they can get a blog for free. Offer to open one for them for a fee (maybe charge N5,000).

Are you good with software and know how to repair software problems of phones, advertise your service on Nairaland, and ask people to come with their problems, and offer to help them repair their phones for a reduced fee.



As I said, I got stuck coming up with ideas, but I am sure someone reading this might have more ideas that other people reading this would learn from. So, please share. None of us is as intelligent as all of us.

Pennywise:
For how long and how do you expect the man to maintain his sanity?

I will be honest, it ain't easy at all. Most of the people saying it is easy probably have low sex drive. It ain't easy, but it can be done for a short period of time.
.. Like 4-6 weeks of complete abstinence. During this period, you can engage in heavy work or exercises that zap your energy. Trust me, if you do 100 press ups, sex will be the last thing on your mind that day.

Timbuktu14:
He can't be artist of the year without an album. Its one of the criterias.

Hmm! Okay.

Hmm

Hmm

pskillzz:
wer are d pics na??

Sorry, no light here, so no time to put pics on nairaland. But their pics are on the website link below the post.

Camera makes people look taller and bigger sometimes, but it might interest you to know that some of your favorite celebrities ain't as tall as you thought they were. I remember standing next to Beyonce one time and actually looking for her...like 'where is the Queen B?' I didn't even know she was standing right next to me. Haha! Just kidding. Anyway, back to business.



Below are 8 celebrities I am sure you never knew were really short.




8. Bruno Mars (5'5)

Yea, for a man, he is quiet short, but he sure got a tall voice. Below is a picture of Bruno Mars standing next to Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift is 5ft10. This gives you an idea of how short Bruno Mars really is.











7. Ashanti (5'3)

Yea, former Murder Inc first lady, Ashanti is quiet short. I guess we didn't notice that all those years she was always singing with Ja Rule, cos Ja Rule is also short.







6. Kim Kardashian (5'2)

Yea, she is super sexy, but she is super short as well. Below is a picture of her with her ex husband, Kris Humphries. You can see how Kim looks like a little girl beside him.










5. Nicki Minaj (5'2)

Nicki, with all the junk in the trunk is just 5ft2.









4. Vanessa Hudgens (5'1)

Yea, one of my favorite actresses, Vanessa Hudgens is also quite short.







3. Anna Kendrick (5'0)

Hollywood actress, Anna Kendrick is quite short too. You might have seen her in movies like Pitch Perfect, and Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates.








2. Lil Kim (4'11)

The rap queen of the 90s and 2000s, Lil Kim...the original Queen Bee is also a short lady. Below is a picture of her with Busta Rhymes.









1. Snooki (4'

And the shortest of them all is reality TV star, Snooki from Jersey Shore.

He felt insulted, so he didn't show. Simple. But Headies sef. Tekno should have been nominated for something like 'artist of the year.'

Zahra: "Mummy come and dance to Shakiti Bobo na."

Aisha: "Leave me alone jor! You want Nigerian bloggers to finish me again Abi? "

Blonchilli:
True but I didn't mean total abstinence in 12 month period. Maybe masturbate occasionally but as a single man I believe total abstinence is almost impossible

Okay. I totally get you now. I am with you on this.

Barigaboy:
This is the best write up so far have ever come across on Nairaland. I am going to write everything down in my diary. I tell u na wetin we guys dey do be that and if one can follow your advice all u listed above wud work positively. But u need to help me warn all this girls that use to toast me on Nairaland lol na play o dem go quote me tire. Pls what can someone do when u r having sexual hurge n u want to have abstinence from sex or what can one do to avoid sexual hurge from some month. Thanks prof cause I would love to be follow d guides in this write up.

Do something that would take up your time and energy. You see, sexual urge is a form of energy, and energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it is transformed from one form to another. So, do something that will transform/transmute that sexual energy. I have listed some options below, which you can choose from.


#Exercise
You can do press-ups...maybe like 50 press-ups. It will zap that sexual urge fast. And it would also help you stay healthy and get a great body.

#Take a Stroll
When you do this, your mind wonders on many things, and this helps reduce the sexual urge energy.

#Develop a Hobby You are Passionate About
Engaging in activities you are passionate about also helps. It could be playing scrabble, playing video games, watching horror movies, watching football, etc.

#Clean the House
Clean the house, wash your clothes, sweep the compound, cut grass, etc.


I believe all these will greatly help you, as they helped me. Also, make sure you don't expose yourself to any form of pornography during this period...whether it's text, photo, or video. So, if you see a topic on Nairaland Front Page that reads- 'Cossy Exposes Boobs at Movie Awards,' RUN!!!

Pennywise:
Are we talking about abstinence from sex with one particular female?

No. I am talking of no form of sexual activity for a period of time.

Blonchilli:
I won't say 4-6 weeks is total abstinence. Certain life goals could take up to a year. Try 12 months

There are people that masturbate almost everyday on this forum, 4-6 weeks would work wonders in their life. I am a realist, and I didn't mention total abstinence in my post heading.
