Does this post have a point or are you just venting your frustrations?

freecocoa:
You can't show yourself in that context(well except you are an artwork or an exhibitionist ), you can only show yourself if you were hiding from something or from doing something.

Showing your hand is an idiomatic expression, used to mean to 'reveal' something, mostly used in a game of cards.

It's best to ask for someone if you expect another person to give you that information, and if you seek to find someone on your own, you search for the person assuming you don't know where they are, but if you know where they are, you go there and look for them.

wetin concern me? I'm not the one stalking someone all over NL here

Reyginus:
Lolol. I'm very happy for them. Eden Hazard really did a good Job.

Reyginus:
It's your choice, bro and your life too. You can do whatever you want. The Blues just made Leicester Champions.

I know even educated people commit grammatical blunders sometimes but there are grammatical blunders that are just so outrageous and shameful at the same time, when they come right out of the mouths of supposed 'graduates' from tertiary institutions!

If you have been guilty of the following as regard spoken English, then you have clearly moved from being a 'Half-baked' graduate to a 'Quarter-baked' graduate!!!

1) 'You are smarting'...I heard a guy at a plaza who claimed to be a graduate saying this! Gush! Being smart is very different from being fast or slick. By the way, there's no verb such as 'smarting' in English language which means the same thing as what this young man was trying to say!

2) 'You are showing yourself'...just like the one above, how can someone be 'showing' himself/herself? So human being don turn movie? Na wa o!

3) 'Oya, come and go'...two opposite verbs. You are telling the person to come and at the same time, to go! Again, what's the meaning of 'Oya'?

4) 'My body is scratching me'...your body can only itch you and not scratch. You scratch when you use your fingers to stroke a surface roughly! Lol!

5) 'My phone is 'more' better than yours...this sentence can surely make you appear a 'quarter-bakie' You can't use two comparative adjectives in a sentence! We have good, better, best. When you compare two things, the middle one which is 'better' should be used so there's no need for 'more' which is also a comparative adjective but goes with 'than'. As in 'more than'

6) 'Did she went to the market'?...as absurd as this sentence is, I have seen many 'graduates' saying it! Two verbs with past tense form in the same sentence?

7) 'Ola, something is smelling. Can you hear it...ehen!!! 'HEAR'? English!!!

8. 'People has' or 'she have'...'has' is a singular auxiliary verb that goes with a singular subject while 'have' is a plural auxiliary verb that goes with a plural subject.

9) 'They takes people for granted'...this one is common on NL. A plural subject does not go with a singular verb and vice versa. 'Take' is plural and 'takes' is singular which goes with a singular subject as well. Take note of 'They' being a plural subject.

10) 'I am looking for Funmilayo'...you can't be looking for someone. Instead, say 'I am asking of Funmilayo'. You can only look for what is lost! It happens regularly when people go to check on others. We can only start looking for Funmilayo if she is declared missing!

I hope these help! We are all learning. It is only a foolish man that takes offence when he is corrected!

Good day!!!

You can add yours!

Reyginus:
Have I ever seriously called you a bad guy for using these words? Be honest. What matters now is this tantrum you both lace your words with. It's disheartening. Please stop this. Please. I'm tired of seeing you two curse each other.

Reyginus:
I'm sorry for that even though that was clearly in symmetry with the way we both converse here. You call me a Pant Washer and a White Knight but I never accuse you of trying to make me unhappy because I know you know we are always joking. I don't think we take our jibes serious.

Reyginus:
Is this a smart thing to do? You are pulling legs and catching fun and someone is hurt by it and you don't think you have to reexamine your position? You don't think this flow is not one you roll with? When Logic fails in correcting you what then comes to your rescue?

There's a limit to fun. If the humiliation of a person in any form is what gives you fun then you are a manimal. It shouldn't be so. No, I'm jot using his death as a moral platform.

You know, in life the evil often perpetuates in quantum heights and we lose our sense of positive morality. We are often brought to a balance by an external impulse on our negative equilibrium. I'm trying to draw from that balance.

Reyginus:
Don't expect too much when the man is intellectually fragile and ignorantly solid. His approach beats the logic he always tries to hang upon. The options are usually to pamper his tantrums or knock him off his feet while at it. I prefer both.

Reyginus:
Is this how you want your relationship to be? Do you really want to hate a fellow human being forever? Come on. I only had three arguments with Freemanam but I've been depressed all day. I thought I have lost my humanity but this showed me otherwise. Once again my essence of existence is threatened.

Ishilove:
Who is the ultimate maker?

swaggzo:

MY HAIRY BALLS

Reyginus:
Ishilove and Logicbwoy, why can't you two reconcile? What's really the problem? You don't believe in Forgiveness? The death of Freemanam has kept me depressed since morning and seeing you two lock horns is worsening my situation. You two can do this for us, yourselves and our world. How do you want to be remembered? Please I beg you two with every humanity in my soul and in the name of whatever you believe in. Please. Please.

Born2Freak:
Please, tell another lie. You too are part of this. You take part in the drama. Your comments on this page serves as evidence. I have always known you to be a fighter from the crazy days of the romance section.

Born2Freak:
You can always create a new thread without this drama.

Born2Freak:
Please, come back to the non-christian chatbox. Instead of some pompous clown calling us "pollution".

Born2Freak:
So this is where you have been hiding?

You have started this your Ishilove issue again! I knew it was too good to be true that Ishilove will stop bashing people on nairaland. hohoho.
A leopard can't change its spots afterall.

Ishilove:
Answer these questions and you will be illuminated

Tufanja:
I dont wanna answer any questions.

An0nimus:
Anytime I see this LB and Ishi saga I keep remembering this song Mariah Carey once did to diss Eminem

Ishilove:
I don't fight, I'm a lover. Anyone who wants to fight with me is just wasting their time

Ishilove:
Slums-of-London hooligan, I was going to ignore your inane rant until I saw this portion. I, along with uncountable others are VERY interested in knowing all the guys on here who have 'run through me'.

Or wait, this slander must be one of the brain farts your homo habilis brain frequently emits, right?? No wonder...

You stinky bum, when you're in the mood to expose me, do holla me so that I can know all the guys who have run through me and the ones I've solicited sex from. Don't forget to give us all the 18+ details.

What a disgusting low life. Your parents did a piss poor job on you.

Why am I even paying attention to this riff-raff??

I'm truly ignoring you for good. I've belittled myself exchanging words with a classless, egomanic tout like you.

Tufanja:
Why dont u become a priest if you love hearing confessions so much. You always try to make people admit crimes they are not guilty of.

Tufanja:
Interesting...you fantasize about the looks of sonoflucifer .

Tufanja:
I don't know about that business, it is rather striking that you do.
I am just medically trained.
Can't remember I put on an angelic face. Sonoflucifer gave me. For some reason I dont know. So dont keep me responsible for that image.

Tufanja:
Better take pineapple juice.

Reyginus:
Lol. I don't think there are up to a thousand Nigerians who would take coffee without milk. Logicboy, do you take coffee? Tell the truth.

Tufanja:
Why U not accusing me of whiteknighting? If it was the other way around...you wld have slabbed Rey with that stick. Just exposing your logics :p
