TravelRe: "Uber, Bolt Not Banned At Airports" - FAAN by linearity:
iSufferFools:
that's the issue here. She didn't tell us who were the people who put up that sign post in the first place.

If what she said is true, then those people who put up that signal are very wrong and should be punished. It's that simple.
Not true!

FAAN is just playing mind games with Nigerians, because they know we don’t comprehend things beyond the headlines and do not have time to read the details and fine print.

The FAAN rebuttal did not contradict the Sign post that was erected, neither did the Sign post contradict the FAAN rebuttal/statement.

The Sign post stated that the car sharing services are not allowed to pick up from the airport and was silence on drop-off, which means drop-off are allowed. The FAAN rebuttal statement states that car sharing services are allowed to drop-off at the airport, which the Sign post did not ban, but was silence on pick-ups, which the sign post ban.

So both statements are consistent, one and the same, I don’t see any contradiction; rather there appear to be some behind the scene coordination.

Can you guys spend more time on other forms of sex, other than penetration sex?

You can cum by her giving you a handjob with good lubes, the bj....Just condition yourself and set some days and tell her, no penetration today, let’s explore other forms of sex for today session. I think, she will begin to like it.

Finally, allow her to take the lead; listen or follow her body and vibal cues; also when you do penetration sex, you don’t have to continue with that until you cum, if she is tired; you can ask her to finish with handjob or Mouth Gig or you can even finish yourself up with her encouraging you with sexual stimulations.

RomanceRe: My Lady Is Showing Signs Of Unseriousness by linearity:
Brothers, my assumption is that your narrations are untrue, because it makes for a good movie script.

If they are true; count yourself lucky, this is the type of signs many men had been waiting for before going into marriage, but they would see it, because everyone put on their camouflage best behavior before marriage.

Ladies will mask their true color until they get married. Here this lady is telling you and showing you, who she truly is and how she will behave and you are asking, if you should still marry her? Hope she have not given you love portion to eat, because it does not make sense.

She does not respect your mom enough to even say "I am sorry"...Is that the kind of lady you want to marry or are you thinking she will miraculously change one day?

Please, don't drink that koolaid, marriage is not a child's play...Open your eyes wide open before getting into marriage and once in, close your them. Forgot that "love...love...love". Am among the few that believe, love is a big scam....People only "love" what they want.

You see a lady and if she have most of the packages you desire, you conclude that you love her..those items could be good behavior, nice ass, good upbringing, good boobs, nice interaction, good synergy, good education, good cook, tall, short, fair, black, humble, the way she walk, the way she present herself, she completes your sentences, etc.....the ladies also have their own list of packages before "falling in love". Once those things starts disappearing, the supposed love will start fading as well....Only God can love, we humans gravitate towards what we inwardly desire and wants.

My point is, DO NOT GO INTO MARRIAGE SOLELY BECAUSE OF LOVE....when there are other things you are not comfortable with. Another lady or guy with those same set of package you desire or more is right around the corner...and surprise! surprise!! You will equally "fall in love" with them.

Am just imagining in my head how hilarious it will be seeing such inscription in your profile @MrNipplesLover, then think of the other more vulgar profile names here on Nairaland having that inscription merely because they posted on an Islamic topic.

Imagine viewing @pussylover’s profile and seeing that inscription right after his name? It does not command reverence, respect or adoration. Then you go into @pussylover’s posts and they are full of vulgar, expletive, it leaves one wondering and scratching their heads.

Foreign AffairsRe: Emmanuel Macron, Justin Trudeau, Boris Johnson Caught On Tape Gossiping Trump by linearity:
AlphaStyles:
you said none has disrespected him because u work for the military in the United States right

And talking about Interest when he asked apple to build jobs in America was it for his interest or that of America?

When he complains that others are collecting too much money from America without putting their share was it for his own interests or that of America?

Donald Trump studied economics and has a degree in economics so u want to tell me that someone who has a cert in economics doesn't know a thing about economics? Those ur so called liberals who knows how to run the economy and country how has it be fairing for them?
Apple have their headquarters in the USA. Moving manufacturing from China to the USA is not feasible and can't be done! It is cheaper to manufacture in China, Trump manufacture all his products that he sells in America in China. Trump suggesting that, tell you how dumb he is economy-wise. He employs illegal immigrates at his hotel instead of America citizens....Stop with that his 'degree' in Economy, he declared bankruptcy four times, enough of that business stuff. He is just street smart and arm twist people, does not pay contractors or under pay them and tie them in endless court cases until they give up.

'Others are collecting too much money' but he increased windfalls payable by America citizens to Israel, gave concessions to Saudi...He just signed a huge tax cut to the very rich that the US have to borrow money to finance and the inputs are not showing in the economy.

He inherited a growing economy, but has managed to so far add more than $2T in debt to the US economy. The US economy is cyclical, very much like the Egyptian economy in the Bible. Look back at US histories, it is the GOP that usually ran the economy into Red...Obama bailed the economy out of the worst recession and this is it's growth cycle...just like with everything else; it can't grow forever, another down-turn is coming.

do u think because he smiles with them means that he doesn't have plans with him? Sometimes people act dumb or play dumb so that they will be able to get things done when u least expect it

Talking about military he gives credit to were it is due

He respects generals who respect him
Trump doesn't give a damn who u are if u respect him he will do the same to u

And talking about fed chairman he has been having problems with him because of interest rates

If u don't study Donald Trump very well but only listen to what others tell u then u will never know the kind of person he is

Trump is a politician who doesn't give a F
If u want to work with him work with him if u don't
F off
I see that, you are shooting from the hip.

Military Generals are professionals and none had disrespected him, before he lash out at them.

He has no business pressuring the Fed Chairman about lowering interest rates to benefits his loan positions. The Fed Chairman is an expert in this field and Trump have no clue about interest rates or how to run the economy of a country.

Trump wants people that will cater to his personal self-interests, it has nothing to do with putting America first.

Not true.

Bullies don’t have core principles, no strategic & no strength.

Putin has is outsmarting him; all you need is to take a look at the world stage today.

Kim is also outsmarting him and using him for photo ops....Now, Kim is giving him pre-conditions to the next nuclear talk.

All you need to do to outsmart Trump is to sing his praises and you are his BFF. And by the way, he is not running anything. Unless you call his reactionary policies and blame games, ‘running things’.....If the markets are up, ‘it is because of his policies’ if they are down, ‘it is the fed’s chairman’s fault. If the military had a bad day in the Middle East, it is the fault of the Generals, if they captured a terrorist, it is because of his efforts.

RomanceRe: How To Live Happily With Your feminist Wife by linearity:
I think you are distorting the true meaning of a feminist.

You started on a good footing by stating that; feminism is the advocacy of equality of all sexes. The focus is not exclusively advocating for female rights; it is only so because in many societies today, female are more neglected in comparison to men's rights.

Take for example the slogan "Black lives matters". This does not mean that, all lives does not matter, black is used there because, blacks are more likely to be abused by the authority in a multiracial environment compare to whites...off-course 'White lives matters" and all lives matters.

Picture in your mind, the sinking titanic ship....Feminists believe that; instead of saying "Women and children should be the first to board the life boats", it should be "All those who are weak and can't swim should board the life-boat first".

Feminist believe that, you should not open the car door for them, simply because they are lady; but do it only if you equally do it for men as well or do it for people that can't do it by themselves regardless of their gender.

In the work place, feminist believe that salaries, positions, seniority, promotions, etc should be based on criteria that gender-blind.

It is not true to assume that feminist women do not cook, they just believe the individual who is better at cooking should be the one to do it, regardless of their gender. Most of the world renowned cooks are men and not women.

In your other examples; if in the countries you cited: Men can leave a marriage anytime for whatever reason, then women should not be forbidden to do likewise.

Feminism has nothing to do with sharing properties in half. It is based on the earning ability of both parties; there are examples where women pay their exes spousal support and maintenance.

Lastly, we have feminist men as well, it is not just women. Feminist men, are men that believe in the equality of all sexes. A feminist man, will not give up his seat in a bus to someone just because they are female; but he can do it because the other party is weak, tired, an elder, etc.

You are confusing femininity with feminist; they are completely two different things and in many instances opposite to one another.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: How Should I Have Answered This Interviewer's Question? by linearity: 2:58pm On Nov 29, 2019
The interviewer is indirectly asking you if you can 'think outside the box'.

Internalize it and apply your response towards the position that you are interviewing for. The question have nothing to do with Arts or design creativity; it can be apply to any discipline and job type.

It is a two edged sword question and your supportive narrative must walk in between a fine line....Companies need people who are creative or can think outside the box, but unless they are interviewing you for the position of the CEO or the President of the Board of Director; you will certainly work under a Manager or a Supervisor; so your answer must also interject how your creativity and thinking outside the box would not make you to overlook company leadership or get into your head or distract from your company's assigned role/responsibilities.

The banks are being greedy(As banks usually are) they charge N20 for interbank and N52 for intra-bank transactions and they still don't want to cut the telcos in on it.

The telecos should cut the service and insist the banks share the profits with them.

Daviddson:
Very good! Nigerians envy the likes of US, UK, Germany, etc, but they're not ready to do half of what those countries citizens did or are doing that make their country so prosperous - a big irony! What's ₦50 that educated youths have been complaining about for months now? Do you think if French people don't pay taxes, VAT, etc, they'll be where they are today? In most developed countries, almost everything you buy or sell is taxed, so why the fuss here over a mere N50?
The N50 is not tax, but a fee. People will still be asked to paid VAT, which is equivalent to sales tax that you referred to as operated in developed countries.

There is nothing like POS fees when you want to buy merchandise in the US. Though some merchants will add a fee if the cost of goods/services you are buying is below a particular threshold set by them and you can skip the fees by paying with cash or up your purchase to at least the minimum, which in most cases is like $10.

The other place you are charged fees is when you are using third party ATM machines for withdrawal, which already happens in Nigeria and in the US some banks will refund the ATM fees.

The Police should start with a list of her debtors and the people she have been in communication with lately about drawing her debts; especially those who are behind in payment.

Her phone records combined with the phone records of her debtors will unravel the case.

In fact even among the very poor and in Africa that HIV affects the most due to lack of knowledge and lack of access to medicine; Diarrhea kills more people, more than AIDs and Malaria combined.

The thing with AIDS is, you have to know your status and get all the necessary information out there, access to google is even more than enough and that individual can live a fruitful life; can have kids; can marry and will not transmit the disease his/her spouse. Since, she know her status now, she is ahead of the curve and positioned to live a more fulfilling life than a good percentage of the rest of the population who don’t care to get tested and know their status.

baby124:
The banks that made the transfer of funds are American banks? Yes or no? This looks like a loan to me from American banks guaranteed by Nigerian banks. Based on fake documentation!
Not true.

No loan was involved, reread it again.

And the documents are only fake because the purchase of planes never occurred. Had it been the Atlanta based company ship them planes or are into the business of selling planes, these would have all been legit.

Put simply, they wanted to move his personal (no clue where he got the money, could have been legit or otherwise, but that is beside the point and the indictment is not alleging that he got it illegally) money from Nigeria to Country C, but for some reasons he is unable to do it. Maybe Country C have blacklisted transfers from Nigeria due to fraud.

So, they hatched a plan to move the money from Nigeria to the USA and from US to country C....but there is a problem, you can’t just transfer that kind of money into the US without a project tied to it, you have to categorically state the purpose and it has to be legit, otherwise it is money laundering.

Now, they have to come with a fiticious project/purpose for the transfer....luckily he owns various companies in Nigeria and a Company in Atlanta US, which is just a front. The Atlanta company raised invoices for the purchase of Airplanes, but they don’t sell Airplanes, and send the invoice to his Nigeria company.... the Nigeria company approached their bank for a Letter of Credit linked to monies already in their account and they send the letter of credit to the US company, which in turn prepare fake purchase documents, shipping documents etc and send it to them then they approach the Nigeria company to release the funds in their account to the account of the company in Atlanta US.

When the money lands the account in US, it is now a ‘clean’ money to be sent to country C.
FamilyRe: I Think My Husband Scammed Me by linearity:
@mrsabuh1

Many have said it already, stop stressing yourself. If someone is distancing themselves from you, instead of forcing yourself on them, give them their space.

From your story, you have been relying on your husband for a lot of initiatives, am not surprise since that is what our culture teaches. However, he has now shown you his true color and the fact that, he may have other plans.

My advise is to try that Canada route again, take the exam again if needed and emigrate to Canada with your kids.

Please, don’t tell him, don’t tell any friend, relatives, etc while doing this. When you get to Canada, change your location to Canada or just text (don’t call) him that you are now in Canada.

Sit back and watch how you will regain respect from him. But, it would have been too late because he had arouse the independent spirit in you, even if you guys reconcile tomorrow and start leaving under the same roof; he now knows you can do it without him.

Caution, always have a backup plan, eg if you are successful with Canada and he asked that you abandon it and move to UK, don’t close the door on Canada, make sure you have meet all the immigration requirements that would allow you to come back.

Yes, I know that Canada requirement work and experience component. You said you are a fashion designer and went to school for that....though you may not like it, rebrand it, register; you are a business owner, a CEO and a job creator, developing countries love business owners and job creators more than applicants; because you will be coming in to help generate revenue for their economy and employ labor...rebrand that as your job experience on your resume.

Therefore, they are more reactive; now they have her on camera and may already know her from previous visit and can hand her over to police or they will just lay wait for her to pay a visit next time.....posting her picture and the video on social media also help in apprehending the suspect since someone from someone’s timeline who got the video will know her.
