Do I act according to what my parents want? Well that's what they wish. I mostly care about my own dreams.

Much of what we call love in the family is simply manipulation. My parents are the only ones who have provided tangible help to me when I was in need, either directly or through their friends, so I probably love them. But they can also be very manipulative, and they can also be counted upon to oppose any form of progress I want to make in my life if the idea is not from them. Some people why I don't expect criticism from friends. Well I get enouh already!!

Parents love to embrace with one arm and stab with the other. So I try to subject any feelings for them to rational scrutiny. I do not allow myself to be pressured into doing anything. I reject the idea that there's anyone who wants the best for me more than I want the best for myself. I trust my judgement more than that of anyone else. Sorry if you disagree.

Your father's state or origin. Tribe. State. Whatever! It's truly irrelevant.

Actually, there are one or two Nairaland ladies I'd love to import

Awwww, Naomi. Why don't you want to go through your mum?

Good suggestions, everyone. I'm so proud of you.

The team that has impressed me the most so far is the French team. Vieira rocks. Brazil? Blunt!

3000 Naira to apply? I don't support that! Anyway, registration is now closed. The show is likely to be boring!

I don't support him. Sorry. I don't support Buba Marwa. Bye bye. Please go and retire!

he/she. him/her. himself/herself. boy/girl. Argh!!

It's too bad that R. Kelly, talented as he is, has serious problems up there in his head.

IBB hasn't been banned. Please don't make me delete this thread. You guys can't discuss Nairaland without saying something that'll make me ban you. Try to consider your allegations before spouting them. Shoo!

Here are some thoughts:
1) At least he's honest enough to admit he can't drive. Unlike playas.
2) It is arguably ridiculous to spend time learning to drive when you can't buy a car.
3) Is she looking for 'normalness' or happiness in a relationship?
4) I'm almost 24, and I can't drive. I am also self-employed. Am I afraid of risks?

So let's learn not to make a big deal of small matters. The same women who can tolerate superiority complex, domineering attitude, self-centeredness in their African men should not be complaining about someone whose only sin is that he doesn't know how to drive. Your friend has more important challenges to worry about.

Seun, if the people were the ones leading in new decisions, then what do they need leaders for?

They merely need spokespersons who will promote the inerests of the people, and not their own selfish agendas.

Hehe. Kodewrita, thanks for appreciating the post!

I seriously should ban him.

ALl of them, including those awaiting trial, but excluding those guilty of violent crimes like rape or murder.

In addition, anyone insulting Seun, talking back to Seun or not praising Seun enough should also be subject to the the Death Penalty.

Hear, hear! I support that 100%!!!

It's okay for you to present a case and hide behind an idea you're unable to
sustain, only to show up with a joke. At least, it eases the tension.

You guys are too wordy. How can I refute 2 pages of raw, condensed text when I have work to do?

IAH: smart
chinani: conscientous?
Mamaput: Nigerian
2cantango: funny
Rhodalyn: addicr
Evelyn: blond

"Blasphemy! Seun Involved" Classic.

Well it's just because God does not exist. I can prove it if you want.

I haven't been celebrating my brithday on the 17th of July for a while.

This month will be different. Problem is I don't have anyone I want to invite to my birthday.

Thanks for sharing this information with us

The people of Bakassi are not agitating for a new Republic. It's their selfish leaders that are leading them down this trecherous paths. But it is the ignorant people that will suffer most from the consequences. People are stupid.

This system doesn't make the forum attractive to those who are not really into soccer. I want to talk about the French match because I saw them playing on TV, but I first have to do research on which group they are playing in.

THerefore I suggest that this system should be scrapped once we reach the second round. From the second round, the format for threads we start should be: TeamA vs TeamB: So And So Round Germany 2006. Thanks.

Fdeveloper: thanks for the information.

I agree with kag. Does God exist? No, She doesn't!!
