RomanceRe: Lady Asks A Man To Send His Account Details For A Full Refund After A Date (pix) by Philosopher1979: 11:43pm On Dec 13, 2025
Kobojunkie:
The gal should also be careful that he does not stalk her after this. Imagine believing that going out on a date with you requires she be interested in you after it all. undecided
Most nigerian men believe that the fact that they spent on a lady entitles them to their body. This is why the red pill does not encourage spending money just to win a ladies heart. She did not force him to spend the money and so he should not complain. It was his choice.

LET ME BE CLEAR.
FOR AROUND 20 YEARS WE HAVE BEING UNDER POLICED AND ALSO WE HAVE NOT HAD ENOUGH SOLDIERS.
YET OUR LEADERS IN THIS TIME FRAME HAVE DONE LITTLE OR NOTHING ABOUT IT.
ALSO MONEY MEANT TO PROCURE ARMS FOR SOLDIERS IS OFTEN STOLEN.
IT TOOK TRUMP BRINGING TINUBU TO A POINT OF INTERNATIONAL EMBARASSMENT BEFORE OUR LEADERS
STARTED DOING BASIC THINGS LIKE RECRUITING MORE SOLDIERS AND POLICEMEN.
WE HAVE VERY VERY HORRIBLE LEADERS.
THE SELFISHNESS OF OUR LEADERS IS EVEN CHILDISH.
IF NIGERIA IS NOT SAFE THEN THEY THEMSELVES ARE NOT SAFE AND EVEN THEIR INVESTMENTS
IN THE COUNTRY WILL BE LOST. I MEAN IF THERE IS INSECURITY IN THE COUNTRY, IT WILL CATCH UP WITH THEM.
YOU DONT NEED A DEGREE IN POLITICAL SCIENCE TO KNOW THAT INSURGENCY AND INSECUIRTY LEADS TO SHEER ANARCHY
COLLAPSE OF THE GOVERNMENT AND OUTRIGHT CIVIL WAR, DESPAIR, AND THE FINAL DISINTEGRATION OF THE COUNTRY.
THEY SHOULD KNOW THAT IF THERE IS INSECURITY, THEY THEMSELVES CAN BE DESTROYED BY IT.
EVEN A 10 YEAR OLD BOY KNOWS THIS.
THE ISSUE IS WE ARE NOT EVEN USED TO DECENT AVERAGE LEADERSHIP. OUR LEADERS ARE
VERY VERY VERY HORRIBLE

i DOUBT IT. WITH NWABALLI INJURY, HE IS ALMOST GUARANTEED A STARTING SPOT.
ALSO I HOPE TALES OF UZOHO BEING BACK IN FORM IS TRUE.
ADEBAYO ADELEYE SHOULD HAVE BEING IN PLACE OF UZOHO EVEN IF MADUKA OKOYE IS NOT INVITED
HE WAS THE BEST GOALKEPPER IN CYPRUS LAST YEAR AND THIS EARNED HIM A MOVE TO GREECE.
THE THING I HEAR ABOUT UZOHO IS THAT HE IS BACK IN FORM BUT I AM NOT SURE. IT IS EVEN BETTER FOR HIM
TO JUST USE THIS SEASON TO GET BACK IN FORM.
IT IS SHEER MADNESS TO COMPROMISE YOUR GOAL KEEPING POSITION. YOU CAN PLAY VERY WELL AND BE LET DOWN BY A BAD GOALKEEPER.

There is emeka ayaosi but....he does not play in a top 5 league so you dont rate him. Football my dear lady is a Universal game played by humanity. The whole franchise of football cannot be limited to 5 countries in Europe. It is a universal game that every human loves. Using players not in the top 5 leagues of Europe to win the world cup is even good for football. It helps to globalize the game. I dimple don't understand how people think. It is disempowering and narrow to limit football to the top 5 leagues of Europe. Just look closer and you will see midfielders around. I wish we were like morocco or south africa with a well developed league. Even morocco still uses players from their league. See football is a joy humanity all share. This top 5 league idea is too rigid and weird

Just got back from X, and according to Osasu, he said he spoke with some people and that there'll be little to no changes at all from the squad that went to the playoffs in Morocco, because according to them, "they need people they already know" or something like that.

Are y'all still hopeful Nigeria will perform? 😂
If they don't do well in this nations cup what will happen next will be worse than the change they are against. The whole team may be disbanded and overhauled. Home based players and unknown players will come in. The temptation to disband rhrm will be too great. This team is gradually fading out. Its better they make the changes now and see what happens. Right now maybe injecting 3 to 7 players will make the difference. If they don't do well in the nations cup the call for an outright disbandment of the team will be too much to resist. The logic will be that after all the worst has happened and we don't have anything to loose again. What happened afterv2010 world cup and just before the 2002 world cup may happen again. Its better they just inject some new players now and see what happens. I am nit saying disbanding them is good. Its just that people will simple get tired of their failures and disappointments.

JESHAL007:
A lady who insists on a no sex before marriage most likely has other options, certainly doesn't desire you sexually, and definitely cannot attach to you emotionally.

A man who has to win a woman's affection, is already playing a lost game, and he'll pay dearly for it, when whatever won and sustained the woman's affection is no more.
The female gender is full of issues.
I once told a lady that when i have relationships with ladies,
i dont bother about sex and can even go a year without sexing them.
This is exactly what she said. "If that is the way it is between you and every girl you meet,
then you have a very bad and terrible problem". Which corrolates with what you
said that if a lady insists on no sex before marriage, then she does not desire you sexually
and cannot attach to you emotionally. A bad boy will not fall into this trap because
a bad boy will demand for sex and if there is no sex, he will leave. This is why bad boys gain a lot from
women. Generally, the female gender is full of issues.
The problem is that religion and culture teaches us that pre-marital sex is not good.
Anyway i hope most ladies do not marry a man they are not sexually and emotionally attracted to
all because of money or social pressure. That is a foundation for adultery.

What we really need is another westerhoof. The Super Eagles is suffering from bad coaching. That's sll. Also, maybe someone like emmanuel aysosi may be more effective than iwobi. But....our coaches limit their thinking to playing in a top 5 league means you ate better. Stuff like that happens. We should pray that God will give our coaches wisdom. That's all. Tactics and formation. Again, the Congolese ciach outsmarted chrlle. The Zimbabwean coach again outsmarted chrlle. Gosh...we need another westerhoof. A master tactician. Players are useless or at best limited without a good coach. Tactics, tactics, formation, coaching wins in football not just quality of players

Phillip Otele and Peter Agba (left footed midfielder) are good enough to have earned a call up to the National team. They have the talents to bring extra force to the team. Their not being invited all these while speaks volume of the criteria for invitation in the National team. It should be what you possess & can add and not whether you played in the Serie A, La liga, Ligue Un or Epl. Back in the days, Odion Ighalo was quite a talent but beacause he was not in the big league, they never cared and never invited him.
WHAT WE HAVE IS A MASSIVE MASSIVE MASSIVE COACHING PROBLEM
OUR COACHES ARE SERIOUSLY UNINTELLIGENT.
THEY JUST LOOK FOR PLAYERS IN THE TOP 5 LEAGUE PLAY A 4 2 4 AND HOPE EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT.
I THINK TOM SAINTFIELT (A BELGIUM COACH PROFICIENT WITH AFRICAN FOOTBALL) OR ANY OTHER EXPERIENCED COACH SHOULD BE HIRED AS OUR COACH.
OUR COACHES ARE SERIOUSLY UNINTELLIGENT
IN THIS NATIONS CUP, TEAMS HAVE FIGURED US OUT. JUST STIFLE OUR MIDFIELD AND MARK OUT OSIMHEN.

I read a book on boko haram. It actually started with good intentions. Some northern youths gathered themselves together to solve the problem of poverty and oppression of Northern leaders and corruption in general. They then took solace in religion. Its like Christians gathering to pray against corruption and bad governance in nigeria and then advocating for Christians to take part in politics. Thus, it was a good Islamic political group meant to improve things. But....along the lines they became radicalized and we have Boko Haram. Its like that. Even hitlers nazi party started as a way to find solution to the problems if Germany after World War 1.

Napoleon55:
Winning AFCON is far more difficult than to qualify for WC,but it's still very possible for this very team but it looks like injury to the key players is going to be a problem.

As for the NFF, their next action will even be worse than before, no put your hope there,na the players effort and determination to succeed we dey bank on.
And the decision to inject the younger players and retaining old players is for the coach not even the NFF,if the coach believes he can still use only Iwobi and Ndidi in our midfield to win serious matches,that's his problem.
The issue with our coaches is that.
1. The are afraid if young players and innovative tactics. They are nit aware that we are too predictable to most opposing coaches and our players are good but a little overrrated. Even the tactics don't bring out tge best in the players. Also they underrated players not playing in the big 5 leagues. Players like sodiq awujoola and onuche ogbelu may be better. The issue is not really better but different. Players like that introduce a new style that opposing years don't expect. For example, if sodiq ismail is played as a winger his accurate crosses will stun opponents simply because they are not prepared fir him and were busy making lookman, cukwueze etc. It's just having an element of surprise. God is God because nobody can predict him. See anything that is too predictable can be defeated. Our tactics and pkayers are too predictable.
2. The underrated other african countries. Other African countries are also improving and tactically they are sometimes better. We may have better players but tactically, they are better. They just capitalise on our weaknesses while we are stck with only one strategy ther can read like a book. We are so predictable. Jus put 3 hardworking okayers in midfield. Then stifle iwobi and isimhen. That's all.
3. Tactics and team work defeats talent and where a player plays. Our coaches have to realize this. Football us a team spirt and not an individual game like lawn tennis.
4. Underrated players not in the top 5 leagues of Europe. This is a big mistake as the global football scouting system is not perfect. Players not I the top 5 leagues will always be needed in the national team. That us why I don't condemn them totally. They have a big role to play.

RomanceRe: The Majority Of People With High IQ Are The Poor And Wreched Ones by Philosopher1979: 7:37am On Nov 29, 2025
High intelligence often creates contempt for small beginnings. Many smart people feel certain jobs or businesses are “beneath them.” They despise starting small. The irony is that almost every major wealth path begins with something embarrassingly small. The proud genius wants the billion-dollar idea or nothing. And “nothing” is usually what they get.

Thinking like this is not a sign of high iq. Wisdom will tell you that great things start small. I was once a secondary school teacher but now I am a lecturer and I even helped someone get a research grant. I am also a known writer. I don't understand great businesses simply have to start small.

Sirchiboy:
HIGH IQ IS ONE OF THE SIGNS OF POVERTY.

Read this only if you have stopped thinking like the average human and have started thinking like someone who has actually observed the world without illusions and “wetin them been tell me”.

1️⃣ High IQ often creates overthinkers, not executors.
Smart people see ten possible failures before they take one step. They analyse until opportunity dies. While the average hustler with half their IQ is already on their third business attempt, the “genius” is still drawing mind maps and reading another book. Overthinking is expensive. It kills action. And in the real world, action builds money, not IQ.

2️⃣ High IQ people generally don’t understand how the world works. They think society rewards intelligence. It doesn’t. It rewards usefulness, perception, influence. Markets run on human nature, not logic. So the high IQ guy sits there expecting good to come to him because he is brilliant, waiting to be “discovered,” waiting for someone to value their brilliance. Meanwhile the less intelligent but socially savvy person is getting the bag.

3️⃣ High IQ people are bad at networking. They get irritated easily at conversations that don’t massage their ego forgetting that money lives in networks, relationships, collaboration. Money is a team sport. Isolation is a poverty trap. The smarter someone is, the more likely they prefer their own company, and the more they accidentally block the social pipeline where money flows.

4️⃣ High intelligence often creates contempt for small beginnings. Many smart people feel certain jobs or businesses are “beneath them.” They despise starting small. The irony is that almost every major wealth path begins with something embarrassingly small. The proud genius wants the billion-dollar idea or nothing. And “nothing” is usually what they get.

5️⃣ High IQ brings perfectionism, and perfectionism is poverty-friendly. A perfectionist doesn’t ship, doesn’t launch, doesn’t sell. Money rewards speed and iteration, not perfection. Perfectionists die broke while “average thinkers” ship messy versions and get rich refining over time.

Lastly, intelligence creates options, options create paralysis and paralysis creates poverty. High IQ is one of the signs of poverty. Stop thinking, start doing.


One of the most powerful invention (aircrafts) was invented by two brothers who were uneducated called the wright brothers after the professor that first started the journey gave up due to overthinking
The only part I can agree with you is that high iq people are introverts. However, the points you mentioned don't necessarily show high iq. I mean not to understand the way the world works is itself foolish. Then analysis paralysis is foolish. I mean I don't believe you're is high if you know so much that you think nothing is possible. That is not knowledge but foolishness. As per a professor being starter than someone less educated. It may be because of opportunities, lack of money or just lack of discipline. Sam altman one of the pioneers if AI has high iq. I don't think my iq us so high but I just created some new ideas in math. High iq people are not like this. I disagree. The only thing is that high iq people have bad social skills and don't know how to socialize.

It will lead to agitations for seperation by the Yorubas and Igbos.
It may sound funny now but their agitations will be at least legitimate.
If the government cannot handle these terrorists then its better we split as a country and go our seperate ways.

the poverty and underdevelopment caused by the politicians in the Northen region and took solace in religion
Now it is another thing entirely. A sort of global terrorist netowork lined to ISIS.

Me, I no rate all those oldies. I watched tapes of old naija matches, and I got the impression they were hyped beyond their prowess and ability by Ernest Okonkwo and other ace commentators of that era.

Those were the days when radio commentary used to run simultaneously with the matches on TV, and if you no dey watch the ball and were listening to only commentary, you'd think Odegbami or Adokie was dribbling the entire players of our opponents.

Na hype job all the 80's set be. As far as I dey concerned, the really skillful Nigerian players emerged in the 90's. This is further buttressed by the exodus to Europe of lots of players to play professionally, and the eventual AFCON victory in 94.

I know this kinda thing is subjective so I respect your list but I truly think there's no way any Nigerian player that played predominantly in the 80's is better than those that played in the latter decades.

Wow, some oldies will fight you. Few african players were un Europe in the 80s. Most good afrcan players still played in Africa. The mass exodus reached fully kicked off in the 90s.

I did not say best but his dribbling skills are the best. Dribbling is just an aspect of football.

Our coaches must work on samuel chukwueezes mentality.
He is very inconsistent.
He is a big game player that can do magical things but he keeps getting missing.
He has a low mentality.
Players like this can score a hattrick in 10 minutes. Shoot from impossible angle dribble 3 players and score
and destroy a low block defence. However he is too complacent.
Someone needs to work on his psychology. One day like messi and another day like a division 3 moldovan player.
