People should mind their business, no one was born muscular or with trousers on, if woman decides to develop the muscles she already has then that's her concern, it's her body after all. But bigots that love nothing better than to put labels on everyone won't let her be because in their twisted minds she doesn't fit neatly into any group and that infuriates them. |
majour:Ok o, these are simple and beautiful, the 1st one is the most recent.

Oga o, you have no idea what you're talking about, for the record I don't use a Tecno phone I never have, but your points don't make any sense. 1. Every mobile devices screen are prone to breakage from iPhones to Samsung to Tecno, Infinix and Itel, if you're worried about broken screens then you should get phone with shatter proof screen, these aren't phone that come with Corning Gorilla Glass screen though those are scratch resistant screens. 2. This 2nd point I don't get, Tecno phones don't have a special less secure Android version installed in them, it's the same Android that's in every other Android device, you said: " majority of people using Tecno device are youths, why? because of it's affordability. These youths are Adventurous!" That's like saying Toyota Hiace buses are prone to damage because most of the people that use them are public transport bus drivers. You can't blame a product for how it's used, Tecno devices weren't meant to be rooted and have every malicious app on the internet installed in them just those buses weren't made to be driven 24/7 year long on every porthole Nigeria has to offer. 3. Now this 3rd point is the worst, 1st of all what's"charging flex"? 90% of these devices come with their micro USB ports soldered directly to the board, they don't use flex, then there's the fact that Tecnos aren't the only devices that come with low capacity batteries, the increase in battery capacity only came in recent years, if you're complaining about Tecnos batteries what will you then say to BlackBerry and iPhone users? even the older Samsung devices have rubbish batteries. Every OEM has improved in the battery dept and Tecno isn't left out, that just where rechargeable battery technology is at the moment. Now that you've made me type an essay I just want to say one more thing, take your Itel and throw it in the nearest river, even if I'm not really a fan of Tecno, i at least acknowledge that they've been making some really compelling devices lately, Itel on the other hand, I've never seen an Itel device i like or trust. |
majour:That is beauty? lol |
Some Nairaland mumus will still find a way to attack this girl that did exactly what they've been saying girls should all do. Make I dey wait. |
You can't use GLO bis on he Lumia but it's still the better phone than the BlackBerry |
fellis:Remove the"s" from the https for he pic to show. See? [img]http://vanessachapman.files./2015/02/intro2.jpg[/img] |
Or maybe it's just a default rbt, not everything is a conspiracy. |
The Yezz Andy C5VP, Google it or go to mobility arena to check it out. |
Mtcheww, all this write up just to tell us you're a misogynist, you never told us why she decided that you're not good enough for her, she agreed to marry you and everything then she stays with you for two weeks and suddenly changes her mind about the whole thing for no reason? story. |
Go to hsi.glo.com or dial *777# |
tobex23:My dear shut up jare, someone is trying to pull you out of your quagmire of ignorance but you're adamant to remain foolish. Also it's spelled shotgun. |
patmegame:Nothing like set preferred install location at the very top of the display? |
patmegame:Go to your settings and search for storage. |
patmegame:Have you set your preferred install location in the storage settings? |
Some people need to shut up forever. This "prophet" is one of them. |
What's the Android version? |
Suspected looters? Shouldn't that be convicted looters? |

#1. Horsetail: The Plant That Reproduces Via Walking Spider Monsters https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/2/4/479224_v2.jpg One of the major weaknesses of any evil plant out there is that they are bolted to the ground and can't chase after you. When shit goes down, humans reserve the right to get on their two legs and get the Bleep out of there. It's what has kept us alive. It's what's going to help us win the Human-Plant war ... unless they send the Mobile Horsetail Brigade after us. Here's why you should be very scared right now: The Equisetum plants (horsetails) reproduce by giving birth to tiny spores with legs (or "elaters," if you want to get technical.) Once released, the spores' legs begin to curl and uncurl when the moisture levels change, allowing them to walk on the goddamn ground. https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/2/0/479220_v3.gif Oh, and the spider spores can also jump. No one knows why, exactly (probably to murder), but one explanation is that they do it to catch the wind and spread to other, more fruitful areas. And by "fruitful areas," we mean our brains (probably). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZ216KD8XuM But that isn't the only explanation; it's just the only one that's a little bit beyond a wild guess. And that's the scariest part about these microscopic devils: No one knows why they have legs, how they learned to jump and walk, and what purpose those bone-like legs really serve. We know nothing. And in the future, when all that's left is the scorched Earth and the horsetail plants growing out of human skeletons littering the post-apocalyptic landscape, we'll know. But by then, it will be way too late. https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/2/2/479222_v2.gif |
#2. Puya Chilensis: The Sheep-Eating Monster Of The Andes https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/1/6/479216_v1.jpg A native of South America, Puya chilensis is a plant that grows up to 10 feet and feeds on the flesh of animals, which probably means that it's a big Venus flytrap that occasionally snatches a mouse or something, right? Nope! The Puya is basically a real-life version of the carnivorous monster plant from Little Shop Of Horrors. Only it's way more horrifying, because unlike Audrey II, this mean green mother from Chile is patient. https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/1/2/479212_v1.jpg See, the Puya plants have a mini grove of leaves with sharp spines at their base, which have been known to trap small animals, like birds or rodents. And once they are entangled in the organic barbwire, there is no getting out of it. The trapped animal will remain at the foot of the Puya, slowly dying of thirst and hunger, until it finally croaks and starts decomposing. Then, the flower will absorb all of the nutrients that seeped into the ground, like Clive Barker's fertilizer. There are even tales of the Puya trapping sheep, whose wool gets so easily entangled in the plant's spiky spines. Whether that's true or not remains to be confirmed (if so, no one has apparently ever photographed it), but it does sound plausible enough for us to call The Royal Horticultural Society a bunch of idiots (sorry, "wankers" for introducing a Puya chilensis to a glasshouse in England. Animal rights groups can relax, though; the plant is being fed a liquid fertilizer which should keep its carnivorous appetite at bay ... for the time being. |
#3. Manchineel: The Death Apple Tree https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/1/0/479210_v2.jpg The manchineel is a morbidly fascinating masterpiece of death and efficiency. Every part of the tree has been designed -- presumably by Mother Nature while she was dating Satan to piss off her parents -- to kill humans in the most horrifying ways possible. https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/0/6/479206_v1.jpg Officially dubbed the "most dangerous tree" by Guinness World Records, the slightest bit of contact with manchineel's sap leaves its victims covered in blisters, and can even render one blind if it gets in their eyes. And that's just the sap. It's delicious-looking, tiny apple-like fruits can cause excruciatingly painful oral swelling, enlargement of the lymph nodes, bleeding in the throat, problems with breathing, and even death. In addition, standing underneath the tree while it's raining can be enough to make you break out in blisters. And if you try to burn it, the tree will produce toxic smoke that causes blindness. https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/0/8/479208_v2.jpg It's little wonder that some Native American tribes allegedly used to tie people to this tree as a form of torture. There are even accounts that Ponce de Leon was killed by an arrow poisoned with the sap of a manchineel while searching for the Fountain of Youth. In conclusion, this plant could not be a bigger "Bleep you" to humans even if it literally grew into the shape of a giant hand with an extended middle finger. |
#4. Gympie-Gympie: The Jellyfish Tree Of Endless Pain https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/0/4/479204_v1.jpg The Gympie-Gympie is a poisonous tree from Australia, even if it's named like a Legend Of Zelda enemy. Try to picture a shrubbery made out of syringes filled with acid and mace, and you'll more or less have a Gympie-Gympie. Technically more of a shrub than a tree, the Gympie-Gympie's foliage is covered in tiny hairs which, upon contact with human skin, deliver a sting that can remain blindingly painful for up to several months -- or, if you're unlucky, over a year. One scientist (who was wearing welding gloves when she got stung) compared the sensation to "being burnt with hot acid and electrocuted at the same time." So not only is this the most painful tree known to man, it's also the kinkiest. https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/2/0/2/479202_v2.jpg There's lots of folklore centered around the Gympie-Gympie, such as horses jumping off cliffs because of the pain the plant inflicted on them. There's even a story of a World War II officer committing suicide after mistakenly using the tree's leaves as toilet paper -- which sounded kind of funny at first, but became more and more terrifying the longer we thought about it. Don't make our mistake. |
There's a reason nobody makes horror movies about plants. At worst, they can give you a little bit of an itchy rash or grow fruit that will poison you. (Hint: Try not eating random shit you come across in the woods.) But if you look hard enough, you'll find some completely real merchants of verdant death that would have actually made The Happening a little bit scary. #5. The Bullhorn Acacia: The Mind-Control Flower https://www.cracked.com/phpimages/article/1/9/8/479198_v2.jpg This devious plant has achieved something usually only reserved for B-list comic book supervillains: It's capable of commanding swarms of insects. The bullhorn acacia provides shelter and nutrient-packed nectar to stinging ants in exchange for their protection, but with a catch. An enzyme in the nectar changes the ants' physiology, making it impossible for them to digest any other kind of sugar. This essentially makes the insects chemically dependent on the acacia's sweetness, which they will get as long as they protect it. The plant makes a certain chemical which makes the bugs go absolutely apeshit psychotic on command. So whenever an animal, like a giraffe, tries to eat the plant, the acacia releases the chemical and has its army bite the face off the attacker. "But wait," you might be saying, if you know anything about ants and plants. "Don't ants destroy plants, because they eat the leaves and scare away helpful insects?" The answer is that they would, if it weren't for the aforementioned mind-control thing that the plant has going for it. When it needs to, the acacia can also produce a different chemical, which attracts pollinating bees to help it reproduce. It also totally repulses the ants, allowing its flowers to bloom in peace. Once the pollination is complete, the acacia takes the chemical lock off the door and invites the junkie ants back into its crack house of horrors. Mother nature, everyone! |
Lol, your source is againstscience.com? ok o |
instinctg:And these would take you there faster and more comfortably. |
What I don't understand is why said foundation don't deliver the donations directly to the beneficiaries? If you really wanted to do good, why would put goods worth millions of naira meant for the less privileged in the hands of the very corrupt people that put them in that situation in the 1st place? |
It's good in some areas and bad in others just like every other network in Nigeria, if it's bad for you then switch to another network that works for you, you aren't shackled to the Glo network, if a business's service isn't to your satisfaction it's your prerogative to not patronize them. |
non of the above. They look classy not swaggy |
