JJYOU:Some of them actually buy cubic zirconium and call it bling bling. Its called showing off in the hood of Portland Oregan, the grandest one in America at 29 years old. otokx:Why do you need to do homework if you are marrying someone you care about? At the point of marrying someone should you know enough about them that simple things would not resort into dropping them like its hot. Plus the way some of you talk like the woman is a desperate object that if you don't marry she will evaporate from existence with grief. Gimme a break. |
I took the time out to check your profile. Your 29 years old. Wow whenever you decide to grow up please mark that day as the most important in your calender. Don't let 2009 ring in with your mode of thinking or atleast pretend your not Nigerian because you're a. . . |
tpia:That's his way of showing he is Portland Oregan the biggest hood in America. |
ima1:This is one of the best responses I have ever read. HAhahahahahahahahhahhaaaaaa. Merrrrrrrrrrrrrry Christmas |
@outlaws. . . Angolobabe:. . .already answered but I will add, first of all calm down. If you are not Igbo or you are and don't like the practice simply marry a white woman like your brother did, that way you won't go through what whites did to black slaves. Secondly if you are ashamed of the Nigerian tradition then identify as a person from the West Side of Portland, Oregan, whatever the hell that means. Thirdly if you don't understand a tradition or you are ashamed of where your from don't call people greedy and out of their names to get your point across cause it just makes you look and seem stupid. You want so much to be American with your multiple curse words so resign from your Nigerianness but don't try to belittle people's tradition because you live in the whitest part of American Portland. Hah!! |
carmelily:Am sorry I had finals. The problem with pictures is that I don't like putting my picture on the internet that's why I don't have facebook, myspace or none of those things. I try to change my hair style up with cornrows, rope twists etc. I don't know if that helped. The rope twists are my favorite because its easy and I can make it really thin or thick for different styles. With the cornrows I make up my own styles or find styles I like over the internet. Also I wash my hair with the rope twists and I wet it daily and when I unwind the rope twists I wear it curly like that for some time and it looks pretty good. I'll find the style and put a picture up. |
i-bizI was having this discussion with people and they used this excuse. This is completely an untrue. As difficult and shameful as it is to admit it the standard of beauty is straight- Caucasian looking hair. If perms, weaves, hot combs and such implements and practices developed back in the day to help slaves look appreciable to their masters then natural hair would not be difficult. There is really nothing difficult about natural hair, its stronger than relaxed hair, healthier than hair tortured with weaves and better looking than those nasty mats-on-head people call wigs. The truth off the matter is too many people are afraid of being ostracized or criticized for having natural hair "Nappy" hair so they make all the excuse in the world to fit in to the white standard. The supposed black women's hero Madam CJ Walker succeeded in making her hair white enough to fit in and she marketed her goods. So sad. |
KarmaMod:Your still huffing and puffing ready to blow my house away? You'll feel better emotionally when the weave is off. |
LadyT:Bia, you think only polythene bags on the head or chemical scalp killing is the only hair styles that look good? Sorry ooh, my hair is natural and looks healthy and amazing. I am natural and loving it but I guess anyone not subscribing to the "self-hating" ideal of white- people's beauty is raggy head. What is sad is that the way your hair was maybe at the age of three (if your parents aren't like the Nigerians that perm and weave children's hair) disgusts you so much now. You probably think that Nneka that came on ANTM was raggedy headed or that an afro or dreadlocks or natural cornrows without weave or rope twists are all raggy headed. You are very sad indeed. |
LadyT:Oh no another one foaming at the mouth like a rabbid dog. I guess the best reply you can make to this post is that I can't afford to put dangerous chemicals or crazy ornaments that tear out hair on my head. Good for you!! I'd rather use the money to help the amazing kids I met at the Ho regional hospital in Ghana or for the kids at the orphange someone told me about in Nigeria. Your greatest accomplishment in life is ornamenting your hair with unnecessary things that are counter prouductive. You've probably used it enough and pulled your head tight enough stop blood flow thus the angry RANTING AND RAVING!! Hahahahhaaha they are funny though LadyT, the funny thing is that you would be pretty, even prettier if you were not wearing that shinny synthetic polythene bag hair and that pink makeup. Black don't crack so no need to try and fit with the white ideal of beauty by doing unneccessary things to yourself. Africans are the natural beauty!!! |
KarmaMod:Awwwww your feelings are still hurt, no need to rant and rave!! Since your feelings are so fragile again . . . I reapeat, and pay close attention to it . . . don't be the first to insult others and then mope and groan at a dose of your own medicine. O.K Poor thing!!! |
Echidime:How is not putting dangerous chemicals on your body returning to the "OLD days of Illiteracy?" Are you sure you read what the topic is about or are you sure you know what illiterate means? Cause frankly I don't think you really know what is going on. |
KarmaMod:Good for you Not being offended by name "chicken head." You are sure burning to know if I know what it is for someone not offended by "chicken head"!! Your amazed that I've dodged telling you what a "chicken head"? Well apart from the fact that its used it in rap videos, the meaning is in urban dictionary and I went to high school in America (what does head mean?). Apart from all these things I find it extremely funny that you have been killing yourself just to have me explain who a chicken head but I won't, I just won't. |
KarmaMod:No one laughs to death from an anuerysm!! See again your acting very how do you say "chicken headish." I know what and who a chicken head is and behaves like. Anyways call me juvenile until you take off the weave your wearing but I still find it funny that you get so easily offended for some one quick to insult. You curse people out in Yoruba but then get mad when they call you "chicken head." Well you probably should not start a fight you don't want to be a part off. Stop the unnatural things you do to your body and you will stop being so angry and quick to act without thinking. |
iamkate:Why can't we look fine without wigs? What is it about black women that is so repulsing that unless we put on a tupe on our heads we will not be beautiful?Furthermore what makes it that we only live for beauty, well other peoples ideals of beauty and nothing else? I really don't understand and that why am asking. |
KarmaMod:So I am on the verg of an aneurysm but then I am finding things funny. Do you know what an aneurysm is? A kid died at my college freshman year of an aneurysm and no one was laughing. You might find dark humor funny but I don't plus I doubt if I was about to have an aneurysm i would be laughing. Oh, so the "chicken head" comment is still affecting you. Honestly if you stop acting like a "chicken head" I promise to stop thinking of you as a "chicken head". I was so impressed by the fact that you are into chemistry, that's great!! But then your "chicken head" behavior makes me wonder how far into chemistry you got. But then again the chemicals from the perm is probably not making you think right, away with perms, away with trying so hard to fit into the white outlook of beauty. People like you should be the ones helping people understand the dangers of the chemicals in lye but instead your using it in your hair and claiming its beauty. In 2006 a 17 yr old girl redid the Kenneth Clarke doll experiment and 4-5 yr old black girls were still picking white dolls and calling it pretty. Now if 4-5 yr old children are saying that and adult women are secretly thinking it too then how do we break away. No, everyone wants to fume and fuss that all the crap they torment themselves with is to look pretty and not white. Yeah right, I laugh at you'll for the amazing self denial. |
whatever90:First you call me young, then you say am older than you then you call me immature, then again a girl and then again immature. Is being fickle your only way to fit in or is your weave wig on too tight again? Anyways I realize I hurt your feeling and I would be sorry but I find it too funny to apologize yet. Hahaha!! I am childishly happy, natural and innocent. You on the other hand are holding an e-grudge with someone who could careless. Maybe if you took those unnatural products out you would be happy enough with yourself to find the everyday joy, no you rather be a cantankerous "chicken head"!!! Too funny. |
tpia:That is exactly it!! I am not getting bent out of shape. The people that are being offended by the call to stop being self destructive are the ones being bent out of shape. No need to get angry when some one tells you something deep down inside you know its true and then start insulting people. Even worse don't insult and then become angry if the insult is returned. I don't sell hot combs, it damages hair . . . anyways, as I have said before this specific topic was not forced into anyone, people choose to reply and some only reply with insults but then get flabbergasted that their insults are returned to them. Frankly I think its funny how those that are first to insult cry the loudest when they get a dose of their own medicine. PS I don't have time to ask people about you or anything. I don't usually go around responded or following other people's ID on Nairaland. If I agree with someone on something today doesn't mean that I assign to every opinion. I noticed that some people on Nairaland follow each other to threads just to support each other. Maybe the individualism is lost because this is a faceless or maybe its the typical flocking around of girls. At any rate this is the internet and I neither have time for e-grudge nor to curb my opinion for anyone. |
KarmaMod:A duck is a duck and a chicken head a chicken head. Respect is earned!!!! respect can only extend to those that respect themselves. Can't take a joke or an insult don't dish it out and then get offended when it is returned to you. This specific topic was not forced on to you. There are certain people that have not entered into it. If you are spineless and have to conform to looking as white as possible, don't try to stop those preaching against self destructive conformity. |
felifeli:That was funny as hell!!! Na wah, so tell me is this Angiefarm Nigerian or British? Ewoo, why doesn't she take care of her heroine |
savanaha:Is the sentence correct. |
fayahsoul:Thank you very much. The chicken head comment always cracks me up. Chicken head for real!!! okunoba:Thank you. There are more like us out there. |
Oh my gosh I just heard the best news of my life to day. I am so excited, I need to stop scream. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! |
Nkem has no match. He knows it too, he will tear it up anywhere he goes. |
JosBoy4Lif:I mean they should go to the Nigeria because the Muslims are at it again. I thought Islam was the religion of peace and not pieces? Just my thoughts. . . |
I have a question maybe its because I haven't been on CNN or BBC lately or because no Americans are involved but why was the Mumbai situation so well braodcasted in the news but this stuff is not? I think maybe the government might have shame and help people if the international community was more aware. PS |
Africans take this wig and weave wearing thing to a whole nother disgusting level. This lady came to my house with those trifling curly weaves that is the signiture of Nigerians and the thing was turned to the side and looked like a dirty matt and worst of all her 10yr old daughter had an identical one. So disgusting and the child has beautiful natural hair that I have helped braid. So why the nasty wig? I don't know, but it sure aint for beauty. Africans think that a special outing means wearing a wig even they have hair. |
tpia:If not that I have respect for you ability to attack someone without making it obvious I would say you were a hater like the other Nairalanders who get on people for doing better in life. Must all Nigerians be advocates of the People holding others Down (PhD)mentality? Would you rather him live on the Romance section talking about fake sexual conquest and disvirgining someone. Atleast if it is as most haters would like to believe it is tall tales its not tall tales about dumb stuff. The levels people go to change the subject about how they hate themselves. There is an Igbo (wah wah) song on youtube called "ndi akwa siri ike n'ukwu." I think the bahavior on here is exactly what he is talking about. |
bacterium:I realize your not that smart but please stop looking for attention. Atleast before you try to type crap change previous posts. Didn't you say you like black women cause their hair are curly now they are bald. You are funny, one of the humors of life. |
bettes:So you don't interest me enough to look at your previous posts but from this one it is obvious how intelligent you are. Are you sure you weren't irritated by the fact that you didn't go to college or you didn't do the sciences? I am into the sciences, I was going to major in Biochemistry but found out I am much more into such research as malaria. That is why I was excited that he is into the sciences. I wasn't shocked, being shocked would mean I didn't think he could do it. oh by the way I am impressed at every doctor, dentist and engineers on Nairaland. And I am especially impressed by those that survived Ivy League schools if it hurts you that you didn't make it that far well then too bad. Now I see you think being happy at other people's achievements is sucking up well again I say TOO BAD!! Maybe if more people from our generation use the knowledge we got from Ivy league schools then we could help improve Nigeria. Believe me am working on it. I realize your only achievement is getting weaves, wigs and perms. Its not my fault you blow your money on trivial things in life and get mad at those that maintain there focus. I sure am not losing any sleep but I think red eye for other people's accomplishments has been burning you to the point of blindness. |

whatever90:I don't use hair oil because that stuff actually prevents hair growth by clogging up the pores of the scalp but you wouldn't understand. As long as you come close to looking white you will do whatever it takes even if the result is opposite of what you want. PS. I didn't know you were Nostradamus' kin called Nostra[b]dumbass and here I thought you were Nigerian. Anyways Nostra[b]dumbass [/b] the gift of reading people over the internet was not given to you so stop thinking it was. Don't you worry about my supposed "joblessness." this is not the job thread. I really feel horrible talking to someone who might be older than me like this but you can get whatever you like |
