baba11: Any guy that is serious and so busy should never waste all his energy on one particular lady.If one option fails,one should readily grab another one.I don't see this happening to me sha!Wasting all my energy and financial resources on futile attempts.If i have invested such wisely,i know what the results might be!!!Yes. Very true. She says no. You move on no matter how hard it is. You never know what God has in stock for you. You might just meet that perfect person you have been seeking. But wait. . The post you quoted. I was refering to mac saying a lady being disturbed should go advertise in a newspaper that she's being disturbed by so, so person. |
deols: Does it even make sense that any form of defamation is used on someone who likes you??don't mind him. He was just trying to be funny. Like Baba11 said. We are in a mixed society and mac you need to understand the married ladies are not even left out of this o. maybe when mac gets that "lovely lady" with that lovely attitude and who has a magical way of keeping her calm he would understand better when she recieves millions of text daily from unknown numbers she knows nothing of and you tell her to calm down and just reply to all with smiles..or your calls are prevented from reaching her because someone is busy calling her lines 247. |
maclatunji: Male relatives, a newspaper advert, blog post, naming and shaming are all polite options. A thing of the mind I saysAnd who pays for the energy and time wasted on these adventures? So i should pay, invest my time and energy just to fend someone off. Not fair |
maclatunji: Rudeness is the basic defence mechanism for 99% of women including you Sissie, you lot do not want to be caught blushing and give attitude to prevent that.mac. You just don't get it. Do you? Lol. This same ish pissed me off over the weekend so much that i wanted to get a pot of paint and just write "stay clear" . Abeg give these ladies a resounding clap. Walahi. They are over trying. What they undergo in a single day ain't child's play. I don talk am. If na Me i don tell you i for don break bottle on top person head seriously. |
maclatunji: There is a feature called "call barring", after politely telling a suitor off and they keep calling, you bar their phone number. They keep calling or pestering after that, you file a complaint with the police or your male relatives. You can even pick their call, say bye and let them keep burning credit at the other end.Most phones don't have selective barring. File at the police station? Hehehe. That got me rolling. Please tell me you are not in naija. Sue someone because of breach of space. When i couldn't sleep over the weekend because someone put their gen on over night a fault i could rightly term as not of their own doing. No go try that thing Abeg. Na the police officer wey you go report to na im go even dey toast you next. Lol, On a serious note. You bar that number he gets another one to bug your life. Sims are sold for 50 naira now o, |
baba11: ........supported!lol. Baba. You know i was i just kidding up there. I want them to study to the highest point possible we just need a way to blow off these "flies" disturbing them and wasting precious time in the name of seeking them out. |
deols: The shouting part. I only gave extreme examples just to present my point.So na everywhere dem dey now? Lol. I thought i was the only one getting bugged. Lol. Ok i get you. Not easy being a lady then. If i were to be one, na bottle i for dey break on top their naughty heads. |
maclatunji: Nope, they do not. You decided to let them bring you down to that level by your agreeing to. It is like those who blame crimes on the devil.Easy for you to say. I am also of that leaning that you don't let people's actions decide for you but realistically some guys can take it to embarrassing heights that can rile you up. Maybe you would understand better when you wake up to see 25 missed calls from someone whom you already told to please let you live and next you see him popping into your personal space when you want to have just a little time for yourself to disturb you. God knows I can be persistent when i want something but seriously i can't go down the way of social harassment and causing the lady untold embarrassment. Some guys don't understand the polite words they only understand the rude ones. @your "lady" searching quest. I hope you aren't looking for a programmed "robot" who knows how to smile always in the face of great adversity. Tongue. |

tbaba1234: You can be polite with a stern voice. I didn't say rude. The kind of voice that ends a conversation before it even started.I get you. The stern voice and a look of disinterest should do the magic i guess. @Deeteeney . I see you. The in house ghost reader. Always reading and never responding. |
deols: Yes. Everyone is naturally bias. A man who won't shout at his younger female boss goes home to claim rights over his older wife...and that is because, of course he has the rights.I get you but wait shouting ?no, I can't tolerate that as a man sef. When am not having hearing problems that you have to shout at me when talking. That in every sense is not an acceptable behavior. I would naturally develop an attitude towards that person. But wait how do you fend off some guys who want something with you without sounding rude because some can really get on your nerves.. What excuse or reasons do you give that can make them see reason ? Trying to learn one or more tips. |
tbaba1234: Have a firm, stern voice. It is a vital asset for a sister in this age. Nothing scares a man more than thatYes. Thats true. But some are just way too stubborn. As for me, I see that stern voice as a challenge to "chase" more harder. How do you deal with such a person in a polite and make him back off? And also remember she's herself she can't go on frowning and using stern voices everywhere she goes. |
lizzlix: Thnks a lot 4 ur reply......I tink it's d former,BTW i do use power dvd nd VLC media, bt mstly power dvd.is it sorted? Does it still shut down? Have you checked the power settings? The system might have been set to shut down when it is idle. |
babylolaroy: thats normal. Even i do it too. My attitude depends on who is talking to me and how he/she is saying it. i can be nice or super nice. i can be irritating and i can be rude. Buh d last applies to persistent guys who come and refuse to go.Yes.. I understand you better now. I can relate to your experience. "I" had to put up with that also at some point in time. Lol. Guys reading wrong meanings to a ladies or is it lady's niceness. That's why we keep advocating that you ladies marry early. If only you ladies would just Forget that "book", a little of it is just enough. Ain't no man hitting on a married muslimah. Just kidding but thats the truth. |
Sissie: @deols true, the more beautiful a lady is, the higher the probability of meeting more men and the attitude helps keep some of them at bay.Does that mean you got a selective way of treating peeps based on their first time impression or what? Just curious. |

What about in ib |
tbaba1234: A stable marriage is not one where the husband or wife is incharge. A truly stable marriage is one where the husband and wife put ALLAH in charge. -true. But don't forget the human effort also. You can't put it in God's hands and go to sleep. |
Adolak: ok. You mean something like reinstalling another OS right? I expected such anyway. Thanks for ur help so far. I'm in a small town now and i dont think there is any competent computer engineer here. That's why nairaland was my only option. I'll get back to you in less than 2 weeks when i leave town. Thanks once again. God bless. Plus can i have ur digits?Ok. What town is that if I may ask? Not necessarily a computer engineer. but any shop they sell computer assessories.You can always pm if you want to get in touch.Off to msq. |
Adolak: yea. I have an external dvd rom plus i use the recovery disk(of thesame system type but not the one that actually came with mine) to do a system repair for it. But still no noticeable changes.go Get a windows 7 cd and get back here when you have it.. Shouldn't cost more than 150 naira. |
sexymoma: hmmm Prayers do work even when you think it not necessary... There was this day that i had a chronic stomach pain, my twin sis jos went to bring a cup of water and she prayed in it and read some psalms in it... she gave it to me and i slept off. even when she was praying in it i was like that and dey do you now na prayer me need ni' not until i slept off peacefully... my dear don't underestimate prayers o.Thanks ma'am. I am not disputing the fact that prayers work but in most cases you need to take physical action in combination with the prayers. Also in this case. The op clearly stated she was given some drugs. A critical look at those drugs would solve her insomnia problems. No one prays to fall ill but take action and pray along.. Don't have poison in your body and start tempting God with your prayers alone. He created those leaves and elements as a mercy so you could heal yourselves. |
Adolak: No sir.just navigate through all the links on the bios. You should find any link with diagnostic or tests. Also try f11. I guess thats for recovery mode in windows seven. Let me ask. Do you have an external cd or dvd rom? |
Adolak: That's what i got from the advanced menu. I'm sorry it's not clear. I used a phoneAnything like a hard disk test listed? |
CHRIS Lagos, South West , Nigeria. 11:00am It was bright sunny day in the city of Lagos. The sun was high in the sky and the air was blowing hot . Chris walked out of the Airport terminus to the bright atmosphere that lay before him. He looked around him and took a 360 degree turn gazing into the distance as he did. "Lagos!" he hummed under his deep breath. He dragged his luggage and made his way through a gathered crowd of other passengers in front of the arrival lounge of the MMI Airport. He took a few striding steps before he stopped and stretched as his muscles felt cramped. He continue walking towards lines of cars parked and for the first time he stepped into the blooming sunshine of the African nation. Chris recoiled back in shock to the covered platform of the arrival lounge. The heat that greeted him when he was exposed to the direct sunshine felt like someone had opened a flurry of boiled hot air. He looked at his arms and could see the formation of perspiration. If he made a guess , the temperature was more than 45 degrees Celsius. The humidity was very high and his nose was filled with the aromatic smell of burning fuel and incense. He looked around wondering how the people managed walking around in the direct sunshine without umbrellas or covering. He looked further right and he spotted a man in the distance resting on a saloon car in the blazing sun who was waving frantically at him. When the man saw he had gotten Chris attention he started walking towards him. The man was in his mid forties and was dressed averagely in a fading shirt and trouser. "Oga, You wan hire abi na drop you need" The man said . He didn't even wait for a response from Chris before he grabbed his luggage and hauled it on his and started moving towards his. Chris looked on puzzled and could only mutter "huh" before followed the man sheepishly towards the car. The man opened the hood of the car and dropped Chris bag in it before closing it and opened the passenger door for Chris to enter. "Oriental na im make i carry you go abi?" The cab man asked as he slammed the door of the car shut. "Sir, I don't understand you , Oriental or what did you say? Is that an Hotel" Chris replied. " Yes na. Na the hotel mak i carry you go abi?" Chris looked puzzled . He could only make out the words hotel and carry out of the mans words. He thought about the words before He nodded to the man silently to take him to the hotel". The cab driver nodded as he turned on the radio before tuning to a station where a male presenter with a deep voice was running a sports show. He turned the knob until the reception was clear. The presenter was running a match report of a game played by Nigeria over the weekend with Italy. "Those boys dem dey play ball walahi" The cab man said as he looked back at Chris trying to strike up a conversation with him. "Shebi you watch the match. Omo those boy na super. See as Rashidi just dey dribble dem and take score." The man continued talking and Chris could only nod in agreement to whatever the man was saying. "Omo, England go hear am today. Na you go be my last passenger . As i dey drop you now na club house me dey go be that. I no fit miss that match" Chris was not listening to him. He was lost in thought as he looked back at the disappearing airport terminal . He adjusted in his sit to get a clearer view of the unraveling city before him. He stared at the scenes playing out in front of him as the cab sped through narrow roads. He was fascinated that there were open stores displaying wears on almost all sides of the road. He was also surprised at the noise; which consisted a constant sound of automobile horns mixed with discordant sounds of people carrying wears on their heads calling out to their potential customers. He had read lots of storied about Lagos and experiencing it first hand was a different thing all together to him. The place looked much more alive and even interesting than the videos and articles had painted it. The cab driver seeing Chris disinterest concentrated on his driving and popped his head out of the window occasionally shouting at pedestrians and other roads users to leave the road as he made his way through. After about five minutes drive into the city. Chris was jolted back to reality as the driver turned sharply at a corner nearly missing an head on collision with an oncoming lorry carrying assorted merchandise. Chris ducked his head and was shocked to see the driver laughing hysterically as he sped down the road blaring his horn in the process. "Please can you drive more carefully." Chris admonished the driver. "Oga no worry abeg. If i no do like this we for still dey holdup for Ikeja" The driver replied as he continued driving with one hand and turning the knob of the radio stereo with the other. Chris looked continued his look of the scenery and his attention was caught by a motorcycle driver and two other passengers who had no helmets on trying to overtake them by the right hand side. The bike swerved right and left with reckless abandon as it made its way through like someone who was on a suicide mission. Immediately the first bike was able to navigate his way past them numerous others motorcycles drove past them with same behavior. Chris sat back looking puzzled at the recklessness of most of the motorists plying Lagos roads. Chris had planned on getting a rental car when he got to Nigeria and get a scout in addition to accompany him around but the little he has seen of the dangerous driving on Nigerians road was less pleasant than what he was expecting. He knew there was no was in hell he could drive in such and come out alive. Most of the drivers navigated through the city with no regards for their safety nor the safety of other road users. He also noticed that most drivers used their horns excessively, like it was some sort of toy. There was also no use of indicators or MSM (mirror signal manoeuvrings). They just honk to indicate to the other drivers in front of them about their intention to overtake and zoom they are already over taking without proper clearance. Luckily, they all seem to understand one another. Thirthy minutes later they arrived at the hotel and the driver swung into the parking lot. "Your money na 3000 naira." The driver said. Chris looked at him as the man made gestures with his hands pointing the three fingers. He dipped his hands into his pockets and retrieved his wallet. He handed over three ten dollar bills to the man. The driver looked at the mint dollar bills with astonishment. He spread it in his hands and brought it to his face as if he was trying to see through it. In one short movement, he squeezed the dollar bill and threw it to floor of the car. He watched as the money began to stretch back. Chris looked on at the bizarre actions of the man but didn't say anything. He had heard lots of fetish stories about some Nigerians and he guessed the driver was performing a ritual. The driver gave him a wide grin with a look of satisfaction on his face. He picked up the notes and stretched them before bringing out a diary from the car compartment. He gently layed the notes in between the leaves. Chris got down from the car and proceeded to the hood to retrieve his luggage. He looked at the twin tower of the hotel and at the median section the words Oriental Hotels was boldly written in a darkish Mandingo colour. Chris stretched his legs before picking up his luggage and headed towards the lobby of the hotel. |
