Odunnu:
Hey nwoke m! Thru wid exams?

Nope! Just one paper to go, on Monday, the 14th.

Lol, I'm older than Nairaland. . . Happy Birthday!

Odunnu:
He should be given more than a 'thumbs-up', the man is 'awesome'.
I want to be like him when I grow up!

Hehe, 'small girl'. Wassup?

How can emergency landing ever be related to sabotage? If it's actually sabotage, I say, hold the pilot. On a more serious note, make sure those flying coffins are good to fly before they're put to use.

ola olabiy:
Michel Platini! Michel Platini! Michel Platini! I am sure you know there's a word/concept called CONSCIENCE.

Well, conscience's an open wound and I hope this statement jolts you awake.

For the first time in years, I slept and woke up with a feeling of utter emptiness. I feel robbed. Well . . . what more can I say? There are good days, and there are bad days, I just pray we end up with a trophy or two this season. Kudos to my men, it wasn't an easy and independent win for Barca.

ola olabiy:

Nairalanders, what do you call your father's friends. I mean his mates. Remember, you are not allowed to use their childrens' names o. So, I don't want Baba dis, Papa dat.


LOL. Oya, come see culture for English oo. I dey laugh before u don answer sef.

I use 'Mister' this or that.

ola olabiy:
I need to replace a word with a pronoun.

The word in question is[b] 'KID'[/b]. E.g. This kid (singular) is cute.

Which of these words is correct:

He

It

They

She?


Cheeky!

He [the kid] is cute. But you should know the gender of the kid before applying the relevant pronoun. Personally, if I don't know the gender, I use 'he', and wait to be corrected.

rasheedtobi:
it depends on what u're talking about. If u're referring to d young one of a goat then 'it' is the ans. Otherwise, it is either he or she depending on the sex.

Bro, have you seen a cute goat before? *joking*

semid4lyfe:
Mr Ola, help with this preposition(s) . . .among/amongst

I use them interchangeably and as the spirit leads and I'm not sure which is correct or if both are correct. Which is the correct one to use in the example below?

The movie features Ramsey Noah, Jim Iyke, Olu Jacobs, Majid Micheal ___________ others.

?

The prepositions mean the same thing and I guess it's okay to employ them as the spirit leads. Personally, I always go for 'among'. 'Amongst' sounds Shakespearean, if you ask me.

I don't know her, but if she's alive when the rumour mill said she's dead, then, thank God.

agabaI23:
You still got it wrong, I meant progrom not pogrom

Right, no problem. I didn't say I was sure, either.

gzib:
@Agaba,pls, b4 u continue, tell me the meaning of[i] progom[/i] so that we go dey the same level?. i no see the meaning for my dictionary.
Maybe i need to update.  
thanks

Agaba meant 'pogrom', I think. Even so, I think it's syntactically incorrect.

Her grammar isn't laudable for a first lady. That is her problem, we all have ours, so I think we should soften our criticism of her grammar.

That girl, I heard her armpits are not user-friendly. . .

I think they got sexy bodies . . .

God will certainly give us victory, as surely as He will give Liverpool tomorrow. Up Gunners!

Since when they were Econet.

revomind:
How about the crowd in the stadium

. . . Or the congregation at Christ the King Catholic Church, CKC, Aba, last year? Orji is a pathetic under-achiever, and anyone who supports him should be treated like a leper.

All these booing will amount to nothing if he finally becomes governor for the second time.

Kolo-mental. What a pity, I was really heart-broken to see him leave the Emirates Stadium. We all have our dark sides playing catch-up with our 'bright' sides. I guess his dark side just won.

oyb:
do these pro gejs even ealise that posters constitute pollution?

And defacing the posters with a black paint constitutes what? Beautification? Did GEJ invent posters or you just fell from Jupiter?

He should have sent off the assistant refs and fans, one after the other. That way, the record will be really difficult to break. Oyinbo people and mental case sef!

blink182:
Please expound

The Illuminati is not a society for kids or 'touts' like Tu Face; it's for high class people: Nobel winners, people like Achebe, J. M Coetzee, Larry King (CNN), Ted Turner, cardinals, Professor Hawkins, Barak Obama, Gordon Brown, Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela and other 'coded' men.

chakula:
My hand excluded out of this prayer take it easy gentleman!

If God grants prayers like that, peharps you wouldn't have been alive to welcome the Internet. So, 'chillax'.

Thank God for their lives. I hope this won't water the ground for the growth of a law that will make it compulsory for the governors, senate president et al to use official jets.

Morizo:
Am sorry to say this but pple like u shld be sold into slavery.

Who will buy him kwanu? @ topic. The NLC is becoming increasingly embarrassing with these feather-weight threats. At the end of the day, nothing will come out of it.

Opera mini 5, TTPOD, AED downloader, X-plore, Dictionary, Bible, 2go, Real Football 2009, NetQuin Anti-virus, Smart movie, etc.

What is the whole thing all about?

Whatever it means, I don't think it's enough reason to create a thread on Nairaland.

[quote author=~Bluetooth link=topic=615515.msg7835506#msg7835506 date=1299134253]If the guy could build a rocket with 30k,I'm sure he can build a plane with 20k and helicopter with 17K.won't like to ride in one of these ? anyways,it's a good development .[/quote]I tire o! I know how much it cost the Jet Club in my school to build a small inverter about five years ago . . . well, good for us all, I guess.

Good thing to imagine, but with the way this is reported, I wouldn't be suprized if what the guy built is nothing near a rocket.

Freewilly:
But what is a married pregnant woman thinking going into a man's hotel room for a job offer.

My guess is she thought the guy wouldn't go for se x if he sees the protruding belly; maybe a few harmless kiss and some touches . . . but she was wrong. Spiritual conji is real.

Children that are fed with stolen wealth, there's no limit to the evil they can do. In a responsible society, the father is expected to resign, but I doubt he would.
