This is the major question, we no longer have an house help, but a relative is staying with us though she works so she has little time to fill the gap for her in which she goes to work on saturdays too. My brother in law who is her younger brother also stay with us he is working class too but doesnt go to work on saturdays, so he stays with them. The problem here is, after agreeing on certain things, she turns around to do the opposite, as a self employed person, i work from Monday to friday, but few hours on saturday, i rarely get to spend time with her during week days because i get home at night, all i wanted is to at least get her to be fully around me on saturday/sunday its not too bad to ask for, because during the week days (5days) I can say categorically that I dont eat more than 3 times of her meal, so she dont stress at all, so if weekend are days she can have time for me, Its not bad at all, to even say that the previous saturday she dashed out without my notice, she was suppose to take oir daughter to the hospital based on an emergency issue, she left her and that made me to start thinking maybe there is more to the saturday market that i am not noticing.

Its very hard to trace her in the tejuoso market, most times sef network is very bad when i try to call her there, the market is rigid and there is no way in this world that I can make that happen. All I could do was to ban her, whatever she can get on saturdays, she can always get during the weekday, her excuse however is that sometimes materials they are using to sow for her isnt enough so she has to go, i said send your PA who you usually send there to help u get it, she said the lady is too lazy and sluggish bla bla bla
All these your rules are ridiculous tbh. Your wife can't be free in her own home to go out and come in at will because she is married to you. Imagine saying you will ban her are you in the 1950s. Nor be your fault na the woman I blame. So if she goes to market for 2hrs tops you will die ba. The remaining 22hrs in the day is not enough for you. You must cage her like an animal. Her own desires are secondary na only your own matter. Well done!

Maybe because the wheel of Time drops every seven days so the luxury of watching the Witcher all at once Is making you to talk shiit about the wheel of Time.

Go and rewatch the wheel of Time all over again from episode one.
How can you even compare this masterpiece to the Witcher?

I swear!!! You all must be mad.
Rewatching won't make the stale acting and average cinematic any better.

Masterpiece in your village maybe. Freya Allan acting alone blows away anything portrayed so far in the WOT.

And correction madness is saying WOT is better than the witcher. Its very clear to everyone who the mad one here is.

[s]Ok i just finished watching the Witcher and it's Good for a fantasy show, like it's kids favorite, it's for the knowledge of the general Public but just like every other fantasy show before it like Shannara Chronicles, Merlin etc
There is nothing spectacular about the Witcher, everything we saw in the Witcher season 2 we have seen before In other series like britania.

And i am going to say this again, you cannot compare the Witcher season 2 even to the wheel of Time season 1.

The wheel of Time is 1 billion times better than the Witcher season 2 that i just saw.

Perhaps if you easily gets excited Just like every other secondary school kid about monsters, magic, sword fight then you will prefer the Witcher but if you are like those that watches series because of the details, the history, the craft, the communication, names of characters, historical creatures and many more then you will know that the wheel of Time is another level, a higher level better than the Witcher.

In the wheel of Time, each characters has it's own history, each characters can literally have their own series based on their characters.

Each clans, each kingdoms, each people have their own history.
Should we talk about how lovable each characters are?

Like when you mention rand, moraine etc. You will see they are all fan favourites.

The Witcher is like Manchester united with Gerrard being cristiano Ronaldo, on paper people love it but in reality the wheel of Time is like Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich that will reap your soul apart from inside without pity.

Manchester united plays football to impress kids while Bayern Munich plays football to impress adults.
There is a huge difference.

The wheel of Time is much more deep and sophisticated than the Witcher.[/s]
That you like a series doesn't mean you should talk trash about another. If at all you want to trash talk at least add some substance to it. Which one be witcher is for kids, Bayern Munich, Man Utd, fan favourite huh.

What's so special about the wheel of time? Is it the mediocre acting from alot of the cast since ep 1? At least some of the cast does improve on their acting but Rand is just dull there is no life to the character. And praytell what haven't you seen before in the WOT?

Oh you think any of those five can hold their own series? Only person talented among all 5 is nynaevae and maybe perrin. The rest we just dey manage.

From your posts on this thread since WOT started its very clear you don't even understand what you are watching. How will someone who has watched the witcher say there is no detail, no history, no communication grin, no names of characters grin, no historical creatures? Witcher has all these and more. Well I am not surprised not after all the mysterious details you saw in your head about how the show revealed Rand was the dragon few episodes ago. If you could see Rand vomiting a dragon in ep 2. While everyone else saw a bat, no wonder you rate WOT a billion times better than the witcher, because only delusional people will do that.

True it was a bat he vomited, i remember now. But the dream rand had was different from the rest, they had a bat related dream but didn't say they vomited a dead bat like rand and rand refused to say his own dream when moraine was asking them to say exactly what they saw in the dream.
Rand kept quiet.

I think the girl in episode three might have figured out it was rand that's why she wanted to lock Only rand in and had to chase after him when he broke out, she could easily had lured mat in for sex and she wanted to initiate with rand but she choosed rand.

Remember lan told moraine in this concluded episode 4 that the dark lord only goes after the dragon reborn so why is the dark lord not coming after logan who is claiming to be a dragon reborn. Even moraine too was confused.

I think the dark lord knows rand is the dragon reborn. Remember the dark lord could easily have killed mat with the fade but he used mat to lure rand out.

Well we will have to see what happens during Next episode.

I think the reason the trolic captured nyneava was for a different reason which we just saw in episode four.
The dark lord knows she is powerful and has the power to heal many sisters of light at once.
The reason you are seeing things that are not there is because you saw somewhere that Rand is the dragon reborn. Even in the book at this point in time the dark one didn't know which one it was.

for a fact, she didn't connive with her brother... I will release evidences soon.. I thought she will change, I don't want my kids to go through the trauma of separation like I did.. I was trying everything to avoid a reoccurrence of what happened to my parent and since same thing happened to her, I thought she will change
If you are smart you will drop this notion of not recreating what happened to your parents because it has brought you so much pain and its still doing it. You are a man, you decide what you want. You don't need to be with her to take care of your kids.

Let her go. Close that chapter of your life immediately if you are smart. End all communication with your inlaws. Send her money for up keep and keep records. Because I am sure she won't spend it all on your kids. So make so you keep tabs on them yourself. If she fails in taking care of them maybe fail to pay their school fees, take her to court and show proofs that you sent her that money and gain full custody of your kids.

And stop being trusting. I have learnt a long time not to completely trust anyone. Don't bank on we are friends or you have helped them in the past. Scrutinise everything especially when money is involve.

Stop blaming people for your troubles. And if you are smart, give your dad a taste of his medicine and close him off too. Let his favourites take care of him. We must all reap what we sow and he is no different.

Work on yourself and build your finance. Chin up, you still have alot more to live for and achieve. Years from now you will look back and be proud that you didn't let this break you. Don't send your ex (thats what she is now accept it and move!) more than what the kids needs always verify the amount for stuff like school fees and co. Don't take her word for it. If it means travelling down to verify do so. She doesn't deserves any penny from you. Ensure you see your kids often, always explain why things are the way they are. Don't let your wife control the narrative. Be more expansive with the truth as they grow up and let them know you will always be there. Make sure they come live with you once a while and in those moments spend as much time as you can with them. Talk to them, listen also very important and spend on them because they are yours.

As long as you make sure your kids feel loved and secured with you. Then you have done better than your parents. Good luck!

Ayo2004:
Lol,telling me how I view football and saying Suarez dribbles better than neymar...the top dribblers of 2010-2020 were Messi and neymar,Suarez didn't even come close in that aspect,Suarez being a better dribbler has to be the most ridiculous football statement,in neymar best season,he was ranked 3rd in ballon d'or rankings while Suarez has never passed 4th,any body who watches both their matches in Barcelona and neymar's performance in PSG will see neymar brings more to the team than Suarez does

Plus,Ozil was never hyped..he was one of the best midfielders of his prime and when he lost form,he doesn't even start for Arsenal,if u can point out what important aspects lewandowski is a better striker but neymar is a better footballer,look who is better in passing,dribbling,crossing and co.
Lewandowski will surely be rated higher presently because he won a lot this season but with all due respect,Messi, Ronaldo and neymar are the best players on the planet
Any footbal fan who thinks neymar comparism to Suarez is disrespect clearly doesn't know football
Lol so Neymar dribbles better than Suarez thats why he is better than Suarez give me a break. In the 2015 season Sofiane Boufal was the best dribbler in Europe so his is obviously better than Messi right? The logic you use is appalling. So Ballon d'or is now the next thing you want to use lmao. I am pretty sure you have seen the stats thats why you so blatantly ignore them lmao. Neymar brought more to the Barcelona team yet Suarez scored more goals and created more goals grin grin grin. This weed you are taking please its too strong.

Ozil was never hyped showed how poorly you have followed football. Clearly you were living under a rock in 2015/16 season.

let me clear you on that 2014/15 season. The 2014/15 season was his first season at Bayern, Of course you don't expect him to hit the ground running. He had to adapt and learn Bayern style of play and combine well with his teammates. But he did end up scoring 25 goals overall in that season. Since then he hasn't looked back. His least total goals in a season after that is 40 goals. Neymar highest overall goals in a season is 39 goals, and this was way back in Barcelona. He hasn't gotten close to this eversince. And your comparing him with someone who has scored at least 40 goals in 5 consecutive season. There are comparison you just shouldn't make!

Neymar has never been better or contributed to a team more than Lewandowski. But you live in fairytale land where the player with the most flair is the best, so I am not surprised grin . You know what lemme not waste my energy anymore its obvious your knee deep in this fairytale and also high so no point.

Lets do a little table for you maybe that will help you understands what contribution to a team really means. I know you think its about dribbling, crossing and co. But no in the position both players play its goals that matters not all that. You can dribble the entire pitch but if you dont make sure the ball ends up in the net then you have done nothing. Because that is football putting the ball in the net more times than your opponent. And make no mistake thats the job of an attacking player.

2019/20

Lewandowski scored 40 goals created 9 goals thats a total of 49 goals that bayern got because of him

Neymar scored 23 goals created 11 thats a total of 34goals

2020/21

Lewandowski scored 55 goals created 10 thats 65 goals

Neymar scored 19 goals created 11 thats 30 goals

Now look at this and tell me with a straight face Neymar contributed more than the king himself. For a no 9 Lewandowski hasnt done badly in the no of goals he created. Who in the hell sees stats like this and opt to go for Neymar instead putting age apart. "No Neymar is a better footballer and what not" will be your rhetoric but how is he better when Lewandowski does it so much better. Oh right he is better because he has more flair and thats all that defines a great footballer. SMH oga you have no point. just goan siddon and cover your face.

lemme add the Suarez own so that useless discussion can end. Lmao Neymar contributed more than Suarez, imagine the height of ignorance.

2016/17

Suarez scored 57 goals created 22 thats wait for it a whooping 79 goals in one season

Neymar scored 31 created 15 thats 46 goals

lets do small maths sha we? 79 - 46 = 33goals

Now I am pretty sure you can see why I found that your statement heavenly hilarious grin . A player whose job is to either score goals or create goals manage 46 goals all season which is remarkable but to say he contributed more than Suarez who had the same job and manage 79 goals. Gosh! I need you to connect me with your supplier. The weed is mad. A whooping 33 goals difference and someone saying that kind of trash. OMG! Things we see on nairaland. Now run along I am done with you.

Suarez has never been better than Neymar...just because he won golden shoe twice doesn't mean so,Neymar is by far a better footballer than Suarez,u need to stop looking at goals only,also,u saying lewandowski has been "terrifyingly consistent" than Messi is a big lie,Messi has been netting at least 20league goals since 2008 while lewandowski has only been able to do that since 2012 without doing it in the 2014/2015 league season so explain that aspect to me of him being more consistent(since u want to use goals to determine)

I am not trying to jab anybody...the excessive hype given to most players who score goals and are playing the number 9 position is an insult to those who actually try to create so many chances and control their team's game,modern fans don't want to know about any player other than the goal scorer,Calvert Lewin has scored ten goals this season and suddenly he is being compared to some many great players,I agree with u, Lewandowski is a phenomenal footballer but he is not a better footballer than Lionel Messi or neymar

Also,aguero,dzeko,Suarez,aubameyang,Kane,ibrahimovic,benzema and many more are all good players playing the number 9 position and are prolific goal scorers for their respective teams but I will agree with u Lewandowski is actually the best among them presently
lol suarez at is best isnt better than Neymar shows how you view football. The same Suarez that totally destroyed so many teams in the premier league. Suarez at his best is a complete player, creates goals, dribbles better than Neymar and we shouldnt even mention the amount of goals he scored. What has Neymar achieved at his best again?

You should know to how separate hype from reality. And you make it seems no 9 are the only hyped players in the world. Wasnt Ozil hyped? was that based on the no of goals he scored or created? Again this is another example of making statements that holds no water. Hype is the culture in football if you don't like it goan watch Zee world. And oh Lewandowski is way better than Neymar theres no comparison there except you believe in fairytales. Messi on the other hand I can agree. And about the consistent thingy didn't I give you a range? Or did you hear me say all his life? SMH



I dont know why you call Neymar at all. Who the hell compares Neymar and Lewandowski self. Compare their stats and look at yourself in the mirror then compare it again. Even Suarez self ha the disrespect. In Suarez best season in Barcelona he scored 40 laliga goals (57 overall) and created 17 laliga goals (22 overall). Neymar only managed 24 laliga goals at most and created max of 10 goals in a laliga season. And you are here shouting Neymar upandan. SMH

I think Lewandowski should win it because of what he achieved with his team....but he is not as good a footballer compared to the likes of Messi,de bruyne neymar and co.There is no player playing number 9 for top attacking teams that won't score a lot of goals unless it is a completely mediocre player.he might be a better striker but he is definitely not a better footballer than Messi and neymar.same reason y I would pick the likes of messi,Neymar,de bruyne as being better than the likes of Suarez,Kane and lewandowski
Well Suarez at his best was better than Neymar at his best, Lewandowski is a phenomenal footballer. If you actually followed him from his days in dortmund to bayern you wont be comparing him to de bruyne, neymar and co. This guy is way above their level and has been terrifyingly consistent for so many years. Same cant be said of Neymar or De bruyne or even Messi.

Your statement about no 9 in attacking teams always scoring alot of goals is a clear jab at Lewandowski and totally holds no water. Look at the top teams in Europe and their no 9. From firmino to benzema and co. How many of them have come close to Lewandowski numbers in the last 5 years? That statement is a total disrespect to the hardwork this guy put in every game he plays. If its so easy for no 9 to score goals why is man city Gabriel Jesus struggling to find joy in front of goal. Sometimes you guys will just siddon and make statements that have no legs to stand on just so you can discredit someone's hardwork.

Well I understand the prejudice about DC CW series. Not surprised Stargirl is suffering from it. But in my opinion its really good. Its much improved from the status quo. The fight scenes are way better. I was impressed watching the fight scene in the latest episode ep 6. Its a refreshing change. But its still a series about teenagers, so if you are looking for more matured type series, you might not like it. Other than that it's really good.

Confusedgirl869:
What if he never changes it?
Hey there this is a tough one. I can only imagine how you feel. But my advice is that you tell him one last time in plain terms, that you don't want to be a baby mama, that you want a marriage instead, ask him not to interrupt you before you start so you can clearly and fully get everything off your chest. Tell him how you feel about him, express yourself and your intentions with all the love in your heart.

Don't come off offensive or like you are setting an ultimatum even though that's the point of this conversation. This will only make him defensive and raise up his walls. Be loving and emotional in your approach, give him the ultimatum in a way that sounds like you don't want it but you will have no choice to walk away if he doesn't change his mind.

He might most likely stick to his guns afterwards. If this happens, I know its hard but let him go and walk away. You won't be happy if you go alone with his babymama stuff and he won't be happy if you force him to marry you. The aim of this little display is to get him seriously thinking afterwards. If he truly loves you, he will come crawling back seeking your hand in marriage. If he doesn't come back, its okay too, you will find someone better.

Oh....my bad.I am surprised you don't rate prison break that much,cause many almost all the people who i know have watched it testify it is dia best or one of their top3.I will give the Fargo a try
Prison Break S1 and S2 were great but from S3 onwards it started losing its magic and ended up disappointing me really. Its probably the same story for Heroes. S1 and 2 were great, but the rest were just bad.

My problem with prison break is lack of consistency. The writers seem to lose their magic when there was no longer a prison to break out of. I think they knew, that's why they sent Michael to yet another prison. But it just didn't have the magic that they intended.

24 on the other hand was a consistent beast! Every season from 1 to 8 was a hit. It was truly a phenomenal piece of television. Hands down one of the best series of its time. If you are into raw action and intense stakes, you would probably feel it is the best series ever made. Thats a show that didn't lose its magic. Well it did lose it though, when they tried reviving it with a new lead actor.

I get its easy to get sucked up in the nostalgia feeling when remembering old series you once watched. Its easier to hype a old series than it is to hype a current one because of this feeling. But prison break wasn't all that great. If they had stopped it at s2 or s3 it could be in the running for best series but even then, I doubt it would have a solid ground to stand on in the presence of GOT. And this latest revival season just cemented how far they have gone from the magic of s1 and 2

If there are no Techno or infinix or itel,how many Nigerians will be using a phone,not to talk of using a high spec phone? Imagine if Nigerians have to choose between Samsung and iPhone to use a phone? How many can afford it?
I use Redmi note 8 by the way.
This argument is outdated please. Update yourself. Samsung now has relatively cheap phones from A10s upwards. Xiaomi Redmi phones are cheap and offer way more than what a techno and the likes offers at that same price. When you are being offered mediocre stuff at a imaginary cheap price doesn't mean you should take it. I use imaginary because certain flagship phones of techno and co are more expensive than Redmi or Samsung phones which offer more value for money.

Techno and the likes did well initially. Now if they had upgraded and started making high quality phones at cheaper prices. No one would be bad mouthing them now. For so long they made us believe we can only get mediocre devices for our price range. But Xiaomi and to some extent Samsung have clearly shown that it just isn't true. Techno and co are just too lazy and selfish to actually bring us quality phones.

true blood is far better than vampire diaries... it's depicts what a vampire really is. vampire diaries na just for teenagers.... VD was interesting though...... but I didn't finish it.. I got fed up at season six.. they were just going merry-go-round like they don't know how to end the story.. I will choose Originals over VD anytime any day. the storyline was very much mature than VD... legacy na for kids or teenagers.. it's like the vampire diaries of this generation so I don't expect young adults to find it interesting as it's predecessor Originals.. I myself don't find it that amusing.. I just watch many of this series to pass time including the uninteresting ones... there was a time that I was fed up with all this new series that I had to go back to watching Smallville all over again... even this present day DC series no sweet reach Smallville... na Supergirl I hate pass.. that series na one Feministic series....
So much truth in this post. True Blood was really good. It reminds me of the old argument of which series accurately described a vampire. But you have to consider what CW is. Its a network for teens, so all their series are tailored for teenagers. If you want more gritty and serious shows, don't expect to get it on CW.

Supergirl is really bad. I don't know how or why the series is still on. I think the new Stargirl is the best DC show on CW now. Have you seen HBO's the watchmen. Was really good but the ending could have been much better. HBO are currently working on a new green lantern series. DC hardly put too much money into their CW shows. But their HBO shows are where they spend the buck.

Money heist ain't trash,though they should have ended it in season 3 or 4.GOT is very good,i think prison break and 24 are the only series i can rate above it.The gangs of London ehn i dont understand the hype,so overrated,average at best.Breaking bad too the pace is just too slow,i was planning on watching peaky blinders but with your comment,i might drop it
I think you might have misunderstood my last statement. I said those shows were above average. So that's a definite recommendation. I don't know why you don't like Gangs Of London. I think its a solid series. Breaking Bad might look slow but the pace is just perfect for you to see the evolution of one Walter White. How he turned from a chemistry teacher to a drug lord. Any thing faster and it might lose its magic.

But everyone has a right to how they see things, so its ok if that's how you see it. I mentioned several series in the post you quoted that are really good check them out.

Personally and this is my opinion, prison break isn't all that great. I don't feel it should be up there with GOT, 24 well it was one of the best series of its time. And it depends on what you like, but for me it isn't at the level of GOT. But it is much closer to GOT than Prison Break. I would recommend Fargo. But it can be slow at times but when the action comes, it will blow you away.

Given the fact that they do change almost the entire cast every season and yet the series still manages to be this iconic. I have never seen a series take this long before a new season comes out. I mean the last season was back in 2017. This is 2020. Still we are still hype for a new one. I mean the acting is phenomenal but I feel the writers room is were all the real MVP for the series are found.

Am a bit taken aback to see Chris Rock playing a main role, but given the history of Fargo am sure he and all the other casts will deliver.
Chris Rock will do the show Justice

Dude you don't have to try so hard to sell Ozark to me. I like the series. But you clearly mentioned writing in your previous post. Now in your last paragraph your like movies are not judge by thrills and storylines. You do know how that looks right? If I may add you don't have the monopoly on what a movie should be judged on. Last time I checked there are awards for storytelling/writing. So don't try to direct anyone here on how they should judge a movie.

I think you should read your previous post to see how you degraded a lot of good series. You claimed you were talking about only current series but you said clearly only Jesse came close to Ben. Now is breaking bad a current series? And so you know Ozark has been out for over a month so in real sense it isn't that current anymore. But it did came out around the time Homeland was winding up so it isn't out of place to compare both. Also Westworld only ended few weeks ago so its still fairly recent, So falls into your atm tag.

And yeah Ozark has won awards and rightly so but so as many other series and so has many other directors.

No one says don't hype a series. But when doing so at least for people like us who have watched really good series don't use absolutes. There are only few series that absolutes can be used on and thats breaking bad and Got. But its best not to use absolutes at all. By using absolute statements like no one comes close to Tom's performance at the moment you have essentially degraded the works of these fine actors you mentioned. Thats my only bone in this discussion, your use of absolute. It makes you sound like someone who just discovered a good series recently, which it doesn't seem you fall in that category.

Lastly about Claire and Tom, theres no comparison. I was the one who brought up the comparison but Rita has shown me that it would be unfair to even begin to compare. And no Tom role wasn't a cameo please. He was a supporting actor. A cameo is a completely different thing. Now Ed shereen's role in GOT now thats a cameo. A cameo essentially doesn't affect the storyline in any real way, but Tom's character affected the storyline massively. Heck he played a major role in how the series progressed. So don't disrespect him by limiting his role to cameo. If you look at the casting for Ozark, Tom is listed has having a main role in the series.

You can also check out Stan Lee's appearances in MCU movies before he died. Now that's a cameo.

The point is there are many other series out there that are very good, just because you haven't see them doesn't mean they don't exist. So using absolutes is something you should try to avoid. I personally don't use absolutes anymore. I did before but we grow as we keep getting exposed to new things.

Check out altered carbon. Fargo is amazing too, storywise and acting, Stranger things, Narcos, the haunting of hill house, dark, mindhunter, the punisher, mr robot, fringe, killing eve, legion, sense8, rectify and so many others.

I do understand feeling so hype about a current series that we feel it's all that. But trust me it isn't. In Fargo you will find an incredible actress who can rival Julia's performance her name is Alison Tolman. There are great series out there so when I read your post of "no movie out there has better writing and directing than Ozark" I just feel angry for all these people who have given their sweat to bring incredible stories to life.
I couldn't have said it any better myself, I love Fargo. While most people praise GOT and BB, I feel Fargo is right up there as one of the greats. Season 4 was meant to be out this year but coronavirus has delayed it undecided. Hopefully it comes out soon. Oh Allison Tolman was incredible in s1 and also when she guest stared in s2. Was really hoping to see her again in s4 but alas she isn't coming back, yet wink

Now I understand why you didn't mention Claire Dane it would truly be unfair. And I didn't dismissed Brody, well maybe I did. Well it wasn't intentional, just wanted to get your views on Claire really. I have seen GOL. Its really good too. The violence is out of this world, I personally love the gunfights. Its a solid series.

And about your views on Ozark, I understand, sometimes it happens to me too. Especially when I have watched alot of similar series prior. I guess you should just sum this one as one of those times.
Glad you like GOL
