Just that I don't take most of the threads serious grin grin[/quote]No one is asking you to take any thread serious. You might as well move over to the joke section. People with real life time issues come here and raise it up for discussions, albeit, there are some un-serious threads in this section. It however does not mean, most threads must be treated as a joke or chit-chat arena.

Please keep up with posting these pictures. This is surely a good idea. Let the world identify with our corrupt leaders, and know that Nigerians are leery of their own leaders. Let their future generation know that their progenitors are thieves and pen rogues.

debosky:
Tpia (by my understanding) is not asserting that lack of evidence means she is definitely a professor. She is simply employing Socratic teaching by requesting that you search deeper or question further instead of stopping at the 'publicly available' biographies, given the non-trivial facts that she holds a PhD from a distinguished institution as well as her extensive experience - the type of qualities that usually lead to professorial appointment.
How ironical.

1 - There is a ''publicly available'' biography of her;

2 - She holds a PhD from a distinguished institution;

3 - She has an extensive experience;

4 - Does that imply she holds a professorial title-ship without it being made  (a)''publicly available''; (b) ''through which institution'' and (c)''what research experience she has undertaken and from where'' to deserve a professorial appointment?

He has a point, fine. Being finacially or spiritually stable isn't the same as being matured. I expect that we mature and grow wiser as we increase in age and face life's challenges. But, still, some donot. The way u handle a situation determines how matured u are.

A guy that can balance between the time he spends with family/game/friends/work and his babe is matured in my opinion. A guy that knows how to apologise to his babe when he is clearly at fault is also a good example. Not an egoistic guy that thinks he is always right.

A woman that knows how to voice her disagreement without raising the roof, disrespectful or kill her hubby's ego is one matured woman. A woman that earns more than hubby and is still a respectful, and submissive wife is sure better than the one that brags.

I just believe, maturity can be seen in one person by 2 different people.
@ Tgirl4real,

Yes you are quite right with your rejoinder. However, there are some fundamental issues you still are missing, which I feel I should point out. That you state that one being financially, spiritually stable or OK cannot be used as being matured has its flaws. The exclusive parameter to weighing such is relative and different ladies have often times used it as a maturity criteria when choosing their man. Would you therefore imply they are immatured?

In my view, the main determinant to be used for assessing maturity is seeing a person who is ready to open-up and make amends when in the wrong. Not only in the wrong, but is willing to accept and take in corrections when necessary, but yet still can stamp his or her feet when situation demands.

I agree with you, maturity can be seen by two different people in one person, but yet still, it does not form the totality or summation that such an individual is solely matured.

Tgirl4real:
Another thing I have noticed is that, we can be matured in an area while working on another area of our lives. But, generally we are ok.

The crux of the thread is to make us look within. Like u said earlier Pataki, I may have sum'n I am looking for in a guy. The question is, am I also working on myself? Will the kind of guy I am looking for be interested in me when he sees me?
I absolutely concur with you here Miss. smiley
FamilyRe: Son Wore His Dads Socks - Dad Freaked Out! by Pataki: 11:54pm On Apr 08, 2009
LOL!

People tend to be attached to things which cannot be shared with other. I also have that habit too. In the first place, how old is your son, that he could not know which socks was his and which was not? Since you stated they are both clinical about sharing things.

That stated, give him time, he will stop talking about it. It is just a matter of time. Do not pay him attention, and he would learn how to shut-up in no time.
RomanceRe: Why Can't U Be Matured? by Pataki: 11:47pm On Apr 08, 2009
Tgirl4real:
@ Pataki, u are not absolutely right. It is not a matter of preferences. An immature guy is simply immature.
The pertinent question to ask is that; is there a standard for measuring maturity? We all weigh maturity from our view points. What I may count as maturity in a relationship, might just be the foundation of accepting maturity to you. In other words, maturity is relative.

If a lady says she wants a man who is well established, financially, socially, spiritually etc. . . . . of course whatever standards she set is based on her exposure. Her exposure is determined by her maturity.

So I believe my point is absolutely right.
TV/MoviesRe: The Apprentice {UK} Thread! by Pataki: 11:41pm On Apr 08, 2009
Sir Alan was rather biased this evening. And for once, I think his instincts were totally flawed. James should have been the one out. Even though, at last week, I felt Maj should have been out as he made no contribution and had been rather too quiet in most planning and implementation of project tasks assigned to them.

Anyways, it is all part of the intrigues and dynamics of business survival. Sure there are good lessons to be learnt and acquired from the show.

RomanceRe: Why Can't U Be Matured? by Pataki: 11:20pm On Apr 08, 2009
Maturity is relative my dear. What you count as maturity may not be acceptable to another lady as 'maturity'. What is most essential is that you find what you looking for in a man. Get your priorities right, and if he does not have them, move on.

honestly, its very frustrating having any kind of discussion wirth iliterates like you.

geez- make una no tire me with una unique brand of stupidity, abeg!!!

Please go chat with fellow idiots like yourself jo!!!
See who is calling one an illiterate. Please check your spelling you dimwit. I wonder how you learnt English language in the first place. If you could have an easy recourse to referring to Wikipedia just some minutes ago as part of your input, what has stopped you since yesterday to show us where you saw Dr Okonjo-Iweala as a fellow to a college or institute as you claimed from which ever website you have seen it?

Who is the intellectual dolt here? Whom have you seen following your idiotic line of reasoning except LadyTwat (whose sole contribution was just to diss Pataki)? Yet post after post, you type out your malodorous inanity, defending the unreasonable, and banging your head against the wall even when you have been corrected, not only by the male gender, but your female gender. Yet you have not only a tenacity to defend your waffle but also insult whomever sets it straight to you.

But a simple search to show us where you saw Okonjo-Iweala as a fellow at a college or institute as you stated since yesterday is no where to be found on this thread. grin

PoliticsRe: Police Brutalty In G20 Meeting Kills Man - Ian Tomlison by Pataki: 4:55pm On Apr 08, 2009
@ i_laugh,

Have you seen the video of the occurrence? I watched the video online, and I must say, the man had no reason to be pushed by the police that way. His back was to the policemen, his hands were inside his trouser pockets, and that push was unwarranted. And definitely, the IPCC UK is looking into that case as we discuss right now. The officer involved with the pushing will have to answer for his actions. That's the beauty of a developed country for you.

Now back to the issue of Nigeria - as you demand 'where are the apologist'? Would the case had been the same? The case scenario was that of which anti-riot policemen were under stress, policemen had been attacked in the process of that demonstration, hence it can be reasonably tenable why that police officer did what he did. But in Nigeria, without any protest or demonstration, simply for refusing to give a Nigeria police officer twenty naira bribe- you may lose your life from a trigger happy-gun loaded police officer. Are such officers held accountable? NO.

There is no country, that do not have police aggression - police brutality. But in the case of Nigeria, it is rather on very useless and ridiculous reasons such as refusal to pay bribe, stating your rights as a citizen of Nigeria, etc. Are there any measures to ensure such policemen are brought to proper justice? I leave the answer for your brain to decipher.
PoliticsRe: When Did Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala Become A Professor? by Pataki: 12:35pm On Apr 08, 2009
troll, the burden of proof doesnt rest with me.  get that hammered into your head. I didnt make the wiki entry and neither am I the one who jealously started this thread.

If your detractor opens a thread saying pataki never graduated primary school yet wiki claims he's a school cert, then its up to your detractor to prove his claims. He can check with the office that issued your certificate to see if its real or fake.

If he decides to just make wild claims about you awarding yourself fake titles, then that amounts to slander and nothing more!!
tpia, the burden of proof is now on you. We are more than convinced, she is not a Professor. Various reasons and explanations have been given in respect to that. The onus now lies on you, to convincingly show us that Okonjo-Iweala is a Professor. All this noise you are making is irrelevant. You did not start the thread, and neither did you make the entry on wikipedia, but you rather audaciously tag those who question her title as ''bad belle.'' I would like you to validate your claim that truly it is ''bad belle'' on the part of the poster to incite this kind of thread.

Is it not amazing all you have been doing is typing and typing the same thing without any supporting statement(s) to all what you have been typing?

Where is your proof to indicate that it is ''bad belle'' on the part of RichyBlack and several others on the acclaimed Professor title-ship to Okonjo-Iweala?

Without any substantial reference to a valid web-link, you are nothing but a noisemaker on this thread.
PoliticsRe: When Did Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala Become A Professor? by Pataki: 12:19am On Apr 08, 2009
I wonder why people are bothering to respond to the troll above me. A simple question was asked, she tagged it as ''bad belle''. Her adjoining question was answered, yet all she could say was:
tpia:
Ngozi was a fellow at a major research institute or college which I dont have time to dig out right now.
She does not have time to dig out her supporting information which by the way is utterly useless, yet she had the time precisely after two hours of making the comment quoted above to sit down and type this:
tpia:
what exactly is your problem? huh


I said one of you people barking here should go and find out why she was called professor, and the answers you're giving me sound so daft!


Simple- the woman was called professor on wiki.  Richyblack out of bad belle and jealous indignation, insists she cant be a Professor because he's wasnt notified when she became one.

That's the whole point of this thread.


You, in typical mugu fashion, are trying to derail the thread by claiming I'm saying she's a professor because she has a PhD and because she was a research fellow.

Una well so?

Seriously, the rate at which many of you emigres are going down the drain sense wise, is very alarming and something needs to be done about this. Is the Nigerian govt not aware of this critical problem? This is the future manpower they'll say they're relying on later nah!!! You people make yourselves sound so stupid!!!!
One would have thought, rather than throw her tantrums on the internet, she do go and back-up her claims to astonishingly prove that there is really ''bad belle'' here. On the contrary, tilapia has failed to do, rather wallowing further in her idiocy.

What a loon. undecided
