The Literature section in its first venture into the front pages of Nairaland presents. . .

"Women are intellectually inferior ninnies. What? We are not insulting them. . . Just look at what they read"

LiteratureRe: Why Do Ladies Like To Read Romance Novels? by Sisikill: 4:00pm On Aug 25, 2008
FINALLY!!! A Literature topic on the main page!!!!!!!!

Even though the "Why do Women read more novels than Men" topic would have been better than this topic perpetuating the myth that women and romance books go hand in hand. . . but it's still good, it's still good. Baby steps, I say. grin

Am so glad you got that I was using Richard Wright's book titles  relay the Emmit Till story. The case was reopened but the men were acquited so they'll go scott free. The worse thing is that the woman who was whistled at maintains that her husband was right.
Perfect example of how NOT blind justice is. Seriously he was 14 for goodness sakes, whistling (if he really did) was all he could have done and they killed him for that! Honestly, I would rather my want my niece didn't see the picture of him lying in state. . . I was sickened as an adult, can't imagine what she would feel but it's really out of my hands.

Who says we're not built for marathons.
Look at those northern cattle rearers
don't they look like like those long legged Kenyans ?
All those skills they used in chasing those wild male namas can be utilized in the 1,500 and 3,000 metres
All they need to do is imagine that their opponents are namas that need capturing.
We have many resources,but are we utilizing them ?
Rotflmao! I swear my brother-in-law told my younger brother the same thing the day Usain Bolt set new records. . . He turned to him and said in Yoruba "You know you should be able to do that with all the herds of cattle you chased growing up", don't get me wrong, it is a logical conclusion but what you guys don't understand is when you are chasing namas, you go in zigzags and those yeye goats are smart too, they can dodge like there's no tomorrow. The day we can get the namas to run on a straight line, is the day you'll start seeing Malas running for the country.

Train the namas and the malas will come, see and conquer.  grin

Thank you sisikill and mykali

No, no it could not be. He could not be one of Uncle Tom's Childrent. He was Bigger, a Black Boy. He realized and recognized that he had to prove that he was a Native Son . He had to prove this to attain a Rite of Passage to no longer be deemed The Outsider while on this
Savage Holiday. He proved his belief of the Black Power by whistling to the white woman with blonde hair and blue eyes. Bigger proved it in this backwards region of Tennessee where blacks folks were still picking cotton. But the price to pay for the rite of passage was grave, maybe too much for a boy of 14. That same night while they all slept Eight Men came for him. They came for the little boy of 14, while they dragged him away already with blood soaking his clothes he could make out his mother in the background yelping Lawd Today. It was a sort of prayer with which she beckoned God with, when the life of a loved on was close its journey's end. The further he was dragged the louder the cries grew, as if he was awakening from The Long Dream. His mothers prayer became a chanting, a chanting by 12 Million Black Voices, that only he and black boys like him could hear. However, sadly these cries and chantings were concealed by The Color Curtain that drowned out the black injustice and[b] American Hunger[/b].
Whoa! This excellent!

It is so funny. . . my niece was just telling on Friday that they are supposed to research and write a paper on crime and racism for this new school year and she choose Emmett Till. She figured it would hit close to him since he was also from Chicago. She's been fascinated with him since they reopened the case a few yrs ago.

Nairaland GeneralRe: Nigerian Nurses Beware? by Sisikill: 2:57pm On Aug 24, 2008
I’m not trying to be a Bimbo airhead here but I’m not really understanding how the issue of what nurses make comes into play here. It sounds to me like we are saying until people make a certain amount, they are not allowed into the elite group of braggers and should they force their way in by opening their mouth and holding their shoulders up high, they deserve to bludgeoned on to death? Isn’t that like saying a rape victim called for it because she’s sexy?

Even if the woman makes $5/hr, as long as she is not coming to beg for handout from anybody, it’s nobody’s darn business how she carries herself or what she chooses to say. Yeah, some people make more than nurses (good for them, more and more for you in Jesus) it still does not give you the right to tell them they called for having their lives taken because they brag or over estimate what they make.

The issue here is actually being clouded by all this money business and in my opinion MandingoII has said it all with this post.

What these trifling, low-down, demented and obsessively controlling men DON'T understand is that, Nursing is a VERY HARD FIELD.

These women are constantly in the face of dying people with no hope of a rebound or unruly people with incessant demands.  This field is for a TROOPER.  American sick people are elitist aZZholes!!!!

These women leave work and Their MAN puts more 'STRESS' upon them because they bring home the LIONSHARE of the family income.  These men WELD CONTROL AND ABUSE upon the nursing professional because they feel emasculated because their wife is out-incoming them.

These women can't win for losing.

What these men should be doing is "accept" the fact that their VERY SALVATION hinges upon these women and in so doing - comforts her to the best of their ability.

(this is what the ethiopian men are doing, between).

Instead - Nigerian men are stuck in the past with old out dated traditions and attitudes toward marriage.

Now they will languish in jail and face deportation.

These losers can't control their own lives and instead want to control others.
Regardless of what they make, nurses have stressful jobs and I don’t think it’s too much to ask that their husbands be understanding or divorce them instead of. . . you know, chopping  their heads off.

Metaphor? You are joking, right? Lmao!

Rotflmao! This is the funnies thing I've read on Nairaland to date.

Media LovePeddler has been used in many context but not in the context you have used it. The phrase was first used for people in the media who take money to say nice things about certain people, companies, product and what have you. It has never. . . I repeat been used to mean people who believe everything they read or hear in the media. Maybe in the village of idiots but not with people with an iota of sense.


By the way, I loooooove that we make you puke! Please, please keep puking. If we can't get you locked up for good ol fashion madness, Bulimia will do just fine. So like I said earlier, don't stop puking and if you need more incentive, just think of me. . . your friendly nairaland Aboki. grin

Hey
I was thinking about the "when are you going to finish it" earlier today, and somehow a plot started forming in my head. I think that thinking I'm about to write a novel is quite silly, but there's a plot growing based on that piece, and it's real complex, but it has all the ends tied together.

You see, it's not likely that I can do a lot of writing within the next few months. I just got out of one school in July, and I'm getting into another in September. The most access I'll have to a computer is the computer centre in school. If you can send your laptop to me, I'll be very grateful. Check my profile for my email address and contact me, so we can talk. LOL!

@Sisikill
You also do short pieces right?
Don't you just love it when that happens? just when you think you're out. . . the story Puuuuuuulls you back in!! It's like you're being haunted or something. I used to get so angry, fight it but now. . . I surrender to it.

There is NOTHING silly about thinking of writing a novel and If you are really serious about it, I'm sure we can work something out. Cross my heart and hope to die. . .  well not die but maybe coma. . . Hmmmm I don't know about. . . okay, okay sleep. Cross my heart and hope to sleep.

And you can stop thinking what you are thinking. Don't even try to pretend like you aren't thinking I'm a coward! That I like to kill peeps in my imiginition don't mean I wanna die. Shooooo.

Yep, short pieces is all I write. I lack the discipline, patience and stability to write anything longer than 5000 words. The resources are there but it is grossly overshadowed by an unwillingness to apply herself. . . I mean myself. So said my bastard prof whom I love to death.

Okay, here’s what we do. . .  present Seun with a receipt of the last payment you received (within the last 6 months) for your writing and he will double it. At least with this, no one will say they are being paid below their worth.

What the heck?  huh

put all my hopes on him

i wanted no other man he was the first man in life and the only one i intended to stay with,
Shaking my head in pity

my friends and family warned me but i refused to listen to them because i was so into him
See, why you need to be taught a lesson?

Then one day i went to his house saw another woman he introduced me as his friend and introduced the girl as his girlfriend, after two years of dating him?
Bwahaha! Perfect Lesson  grin  grin

Well i kept my kool and didnt say anything infact i chatted with the girl.

i left i was heart broken and worn out, i cried my whole life out i cursed myself.
Awwww, now I feel sorry for you. . . NOT! Anyway, I hope you learnt your lesson.

But i never learnt my lesson i still went back to him he used me like before and i started seeing different girls with him
Oh, looks like I spoke too soon. Tell me again. . . Who needs to be taught a lesson??  undecided

so i couldnt take it any more i called it quits with him.
Okay now this where we disagree, you quit too soon. You should waited until after marriage, after your 3rd child and he brings home the 5th wife.

Actually i know what my problem was, i wasnt sophisticated enough for him
Hmmm, yeah okay. Everyone needs to tell themselves little white lies. I have no problem with that. wink

now am back with him
What’s that old saying? Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice . . .

i helped him to build an empire and am crashing it one after the other because he is not man enough for me.

TV/MoviesRe: Bad Movies, Who Is To Blame: Actors Or Directors by Sisikill: 3:21am On Aug 22, 2008
vescucci:
Let's stick to the topic. Once Gamine asked what a good movie was. This has proved to be a good question. You could judge this based on different criteria, art, grossings, popularity etc. But when it come down to it, these yardsticks are not mutually exclusive, so I'D say a good movie comprises of all the elements I mentioned and more. It's virtually impossible as Ex-Inferis maintained to make a movie for all generations, therefore it follows too that a film should be judged based also on the targeted audience. I remember as a kid, I thought Jumanji and Never ending story were the best films in the world and I couldn't make out what the deal was with The Godfather and Kramer vs Kramer to mention a few. I'm sure if you have teenagers as siblings, they'D hate Brokeback Mountain and probably doze while watching No Country for old men. On the level of awards. Since the Academy consists of essentially the same artists involved in film making themselves. You can't say they are wrong most of the time. Though a lot. But they are mostly right too. The way I see it, they choose films that they think is an appropriate respresentation of the Academy.

Even though we're digressing I think we've basically come to a conclusion that directors, producers and the studio at large for a bad movie. Some complained about intentional sabotage of a studio marketing its film i.e. The assasination, I think this is very unlikely. They'D only do such a thing if they believed marketing costs would exceed the returns. Otherwise it's a case of a mother murdering her own child. I like Bay some but I like Nolan better. Not to take away anything from Bay though, in restrospect Bad Boys II was crappy!
That is PRECISELY why they did it. The studios were sure the average movie going audience won't want to sit through a 3 hr movie. Not even an action movie or something akin to the westerns of yesteryear. . . nope this was more psychological than it was physical. They had already sunk 30 mill on just production alone, of course they were not going to throw more money into it. The release date was pushed back twice because the studio and the director couldn't come to an agreement over cutting down to an acceptable time frame. It was finally released two years after they had completed filming, the director won and the studios took a washing our hands off it stance.

twinstaiye:
You are referring to Jacob, his real name (I think) is Tajudeen Gbadamosi, a famous hunchback who died long time ago.  They called themselves Jesters International comprising Jacob and Papalolo, later joined by Aderupoko.  Jacob died amongst the three and ever since then, the group had split.  There was one particular episode of their jesters in those days that really made the headline, it was titled "Pa Jacob is Ku" it was a jest version of popular newspaper obituary in those days to announce the death of people in the newspaper.  Back then, these groups used these caption to refer to Jacob as the one referred to in a particular advert.  It was so hilarious, as it is all coming back to me now.
Having said that, no one has come out to prove it that Jacob was actually kidnap for sacrifice, but the rumour was tesne at that time especially during the Ogunpa channelisation disaster in which a lot of people died, that a famous hunchback should be sacrifice to appease the gods of Ogunpa river.  It was claimed at that time that Jacob goes into hiding, until it was announced on the radio that it was a mere rumour.  Whether this is true or not, nobody except Jacob himself can clear that rumour, but he is dead now, may his soul rest in peace.
Oh my God! Yes! That's it!! You are a fountain of information.  grin I also remember them saying he's just finished a very intense movie when he died.

Now I remember Jaaacobu, Papalolo and Aderupoko. I also remember watching this movie. . .  scratch the watching part coz I honestly don't know what the heck I did but I was at my grandma's house and she used to make us sit down with her and watch these movies. Hardly understood what they were saying. . . hmm, maybe that's why she forced us to sit and watch, sly, sly woman.

Anyway, All I remember is two people in the bush, hiding money and trying to double cross each other. What really stuck was the song. . .  (I'm laughing so hard I can't type)

Papalolo go bring the money
I dey go bring the money
Because Money dey catchy me
I dey go bring the money.

Aaah Omo Adamo, Omo Efa.


I swear my hands are shaking from lauging. . . please tell me you know this movie.

Thank you soooo very much, I Wish we had a database for Naija movies. In my opnion, they made better, more authentic movies back in the day. Today's movies seem so affected, you know what I mean?
