E be like say you na Odogwu

Wetin be the meaning?

onojaford:
Farming, hunting and stealing are the oldest professions. This because they are the natural professions of survival. Without those occupations none would live. Farming, stealing and hunting are therefore as old as man just as they are the natural professions.

Sure and true. I already said it as I mentioned farming and hunting in one of my posts if you you comb the pages of this thread.
However, I didn't put stealing sha o

koning:
Progeria alright. But she looks kind of funny. Not the typical Progeria look, but just old. Really old.

Exactly! She looks really different from that progeria syndrome.

The face is a perfect old face of an aged woman who is well stricken in years. Looks like something out of the ordinary.

Look well there is teeth and Serpent has no teeths. What kind of creature is that? Dragon?

That's a sweet monitor lizard... Most delicious when grilled with pepper

Loandbehold:
That's a monitor lizard. People eat that in most countries. Even in Nigeria, It's sold in many places.

Na only you get am.

Sleekfingers:
It is pretty obvious that you are not a deep thinker....... I repeat prostitution is the oldest profession in the world. If you can't read between the lines. Then I can't help you here......

Go and help yourself first, you're not thinking anything! I won't dignify you with response again. Goodluck.

ahswear e be things. i knw some people don buy infinix laptop when hp, dell, acer etc dey available. na after 1 year, tears go full everywhere

I was there when the new TV was delivered to one of my guys for ibadan last year. I don't know the situation of the TV now.

I saw it that day and my mind was like Infinix TV again, WTF? Personally, I didn't like the idea because I saw many of the abilities they said the TV could do as being smart (YouTube, Netflix app etc) and I felt it was needless. This is because we're in a fast paced age and still agile youths and workers.

Who has the time to watch and watch all those on TV in this jet age except retirees and oldies and perhaps during vacation and rest and that's for abroad people, not here. Even the function of my LG TV, I never sabi all of them

It isn't a bad idea though, but it is glaring that they wanna claim superiority and innovation over existing and legendary brands too quickly, but sadly, they may not have perfected their technology before launching it to the public.

Go and read from genesis to revelation...you go see am there.....

Very funny, you're trying to make a point but you gat no proofs. Who's gonna listen to you? So because you pointed out the Bible has meant I haven't finished reading from Genesis to Revelation ba?

People get more serious works or business to do with their time rather than arguing the common sensical facts that stares us all in the face.

I challenge you to bring out the Bible verse referring to prostitution as the oldest profession.

However, to educate you. If you have followed the thread, you would see that I later mentioned a writer named Kipling whose writing originated the phrase and that it is like an idiom or stereotype.

Madam Queenslander also called it an overstatement. It means the phrase is not necessarily true.

So bro. Don't just follow the crowd to make baseless arguments. Think and do research yourself. That a white man said it does not make it true.

And for your information, if you are quoting the Bible stories, know that God gave Garden of Eden to Adam to keep it and tend it as the first man. That's a GARDENER there, not prostitute or harlot.

Adam had two sons later, one was a tiller of ground (Cain) and the other a shepherd (Abel) : That's a FARMER and a CATTLE/SHEEP REARER you both have there not prostitutes.

And in summation both still belong to FARMING (Crop and livestock farming).

Crap.. Who u tryna decieve. I can imagine u already asking for her digits in her p.m

Hahaha... Even at that, wetin be your own sir? Are you jealous or what? Abi I don offend you before?

Sleekfingers:
Oga, prostitution is the oldest profession in the world.....even it is there in that useless story book called bible and quran.......

Where is it in the Bible? quote it. I don't know about Quran.

Babatunde7109:
I wonder where they have relegated goldsmith, tie & dye, bead making, and a few others to.

Also, I think it’s more comfortable to use ‘hustle’ rather than ‘profession’. E geh why.

Sure, you're right bro. The wrong phrase was adapted from a writer named Rudyard Kipling or so. It became an overstatement or idiom over the years and idiots helped re-echoed it.

I don't know where they want to put farming and hunting, after all the hall mark of existence as humans is to survive first before even thinking of anything else.

WhiteRuler:
Hello Sharpwriter, I need some writing work. Can I work with you?

Sorry Comrade, presently, I don't have any writing gig to give out. Me too sef dey find hustle o

Silentgroper:
Very predictable ... Smh

Why shake your head sir
If what you are thinking is lovey dovey, that would be a wrong turn!

frowland:
Maybe you should prove that it's not. Both of you need to make your argument very clear.

I have already done that with the people concerned. Thanks.

udede:
Any thing to trend

Perfect word..... You grasped it well.

festacman:
Toilet cutie

Imagine the size of poo that dropped

Guy, I dey chop for here na, han han.... Warn yourself o.

Queenslander:
Hmmm, it seems you know me too well,.
Um, what certain issues do I not respond to when questioned here?? Don't run away oh, Tell me?? z

Lol Lol ma'am, you are very inquisitive o. Anyway, I will tell you via PM. Things like that can be said in private. Please respond when you see it.

Queenslander:
Yes,. More of an overstatement,. Not to be taken literally ☹️

And I am not oga too!!

I understand now and I already quoted you.

But you always sound like an oga, and many times you don't respond to certain issues when questioned here on Nairaland

FamTomx2:
Dude, google is there for you ..

Ask the question for a quick reply.

Dude, I understand you.... I have seen that the phrase originated from one Rudyard Kipling, a writer.

He was misquoted and hence, the popular use today.

This phrase is like an idiom, cliché or stereotype not necessarily true but we've accepted it as part of our words/view.

Cc Queenslander

Queenslander:
It is not madam, I think it's more of a figure of speech!!

Figure of speech in what class? Hyperbole?
And I'm not madam.

Queenslander:
She's mad,
Even though she rightly called herself a hoe, I don't care,. She's still mad!!

so because the beggar has a big ass.. she should start selling herself to every Dick, Tom and Harry in town?? Wow, What a brilliant idea..
Smh!!

If the lady in question was her sister or daughter,. Would she advice her to go into such a devilish and demeaning work??

Prostitution as an institution is evil,. It doesn't matter if it is the world's oldest profession,. It is still wrong, immoral and deplorable..

Spits

It's not the world oldest profession oga.... Prove it if it is.

FamTomx2:


She might be right, because It's even the world's oldest profession..

A job that sustains a lot of Nairaland's females

Where did you all got this lies that ashawo is the oldest profession? Prove it.
