Romance / Re: Whats With Guys And Boobs? by longshanks23: 8:14pm On Jan 07, 2014 |
@OP, U know a baby can suckle on a bobbie that's as hard as stone? All he needs is for his mouth to find the nipple-areola complex. His hungry mouth on those warheads stimulate what is known as the 'milk letdown reflex' as a result of hormones oxytocin and prolactin, causing milk to flow down into his waiting mouth. Moral of the story:Bobbies were meant to be squeezed. For pleasure. By men. |

Romance / Re: Most Nigerian Ladies Are Boring...not Current! by longshanks23: 6:08pm On Jan 05, 2014 |
Wislet: I don't know what you people are talking about.Sensible post. A lot of Nigerian girls think the world revolves around Brazilian hair, makeup, BlackBerry and other mundane and banal things. it is very difficult carrying out intelligent conversation with them. I cannot, and will not suffer a girl, no matter how pretty, who doesn't know who David Mark is, or doesn't know that to begin sentences with 'am' instead of 'I am' or 'I'm' is wrong. |

Temptee101: Most Nigerian gals are very boring to be with, they hardly contribute meaningfully in a discussion. In most chats, the guys are left to do the talking while the ladies just sit there staring lyk dummies while channelling all their attention to pinging and because of this wherever the guy feels he has talked at length, in order to keep the two of them going, what comes to his mind is just kiss, smooch and have s.ex with her just to get her involve. What they are after is just ur compliments to them; how dey look, smile,dress, where u will take them to, what u will buy for them e.t.c. Thats why most relationships dnt last. Talking from experienceI agree with you. Once stopped talking to a beautiful girl (studying Theatre Arts) who didn't know who Chinua Achebe was. |
Education / Re: Useless, cringe-worthy Degrees? by longshanks23: 4:48pm On Jan 03, 2014 |
With the poor mastery of the English Language displayed on CVs, application letters and even on NL, it is no wonder a lot of graduates have some difficulty getting hired. Dreadful spelling, poor tenses, non-existent punctuation, starting sentences with 'Am' instead of 'I am' or 'I'm', and so on. Employers may not care about your course of study, but your presentation, including your application helps a lot. |
Education / Re: Useless, cringe-worthy Degrees? by longshanks23: 3:27pm On Jan 03, 2014 |
Universities advertise professional courses (you need to study these courses before you can work in the fields-medicine, law, engineering, theology, etc) and non-professional courses. That being said, all undergraduate courses are templates for achieving tertiary education (emphasis on EDUCATION) and not necessarily as a source of livelihood. No degree is worthless, as they are all meant to provide HIGHER EDUCATION. Most people want to study the professional courses but have to settle for others because of JAMB and co. and now lament the poor job prospects. Let's take a look at Nigeria. How many employers have a need for a graduate of Local Government Studies? Even Banking and Finance graduates have a hard time getting banking jobs.Thankfully, with the exception of the professional courses, there is no law that says most jobs in Nigeria should be tailored to courses of study. So, before going to study for a course, are you studying that course because of personal interest and enthusiasm for it, or are you looking for a livelihood? 1 Like |

Literature / Why Do We Begin Sentences With 'am' Instead Of 'I Am'? by longshanks23: 6:52pm On Dec 31, 2013 |
One might put it down to pronunciation, but it is so common for people, especially on NL to begin sentences with 'am' instead of 'I am': 'Am so grateful to God', 'Am very happy today'. This is incorrect grammar and the abbreviation 'I'm' instead of 'am' is the right one to use. |
Literature / Silly Bastardizations Guys/ladies Use On Social Media by longshanks23: 6:27pm On Dec 31, 2013 |
It is commonplace nowadays to see words replaced with neologisms that we think are 'Behind' or 'cute '. For example: 'sowee' instead of 'sorry'. 'pweedie' instead of 'pretty'. 'brava' instead of 'brother'. 'serzly' instead of 'seriously'. 'jawe' instead of 'jare'. In my opinion, they are pretty silly and childish. |

Health / Re: Doctors Performed C-section On 41-week Pregnant Woman But Found No Baby by longshanks23: 5:40pm On Dec 18, 2013 |
This is the 21st century. At some time during her antenatal visits, the pregnant woman would have had an ultrasound scan to show the fetal parameters, depending on the gestational age. While there is such a condition as pseudocyesis, there is NO GROWING FETUS as in a normal pregnancy, all the clinical features being explained by an imbalance of hormones. lt is just impossible for a 3rd trimester live gestation to disappear prior to delivery, in the absence of any antenatal complications. The obvious explanation would be that the delivery team did deliver the baby and did whatever they did with it. |

SQURA: 1. Thank God for a brown new day.A lot of Nigerian 'undergraduates' and 'graduates' don't know how to construct sentences. .e.g..beginning a sentence with 'am' instead of 'I am'. Very prevalent on NL, I might add. |

Science/Technology / Re: Recommended Glasses For Viewing Solar Eclipse by longshanks23: 10:57am On Nov 03, 2013 |
Observing the eclipse via a mirror in a bowl of coloured water (dye, ink) is relatively safe, compared to viewing it directly. An Xray film, without images, is also relatively safe. Viewing the eclipse with the unprotected eye can be dangerous, as the damage to the retina,even if not felt immediately, is permanent. |
