Romance › Re: Consequences Of Sexual Relationship With Ladies In Same Building As A Bachelor? by SmartyPants(m): 12:10pm On Feb 01, 2019
Hidemyface:
One already already asked why I don fancy any of them. Some Ladies can be bold sha. I had to sit the youngest down and talk her out of boyfriendish when she complained I collected her number and haven't called her once but have called her sister. cheesy and the only time I called her sister was when I saw her missed. God help us.
Why did you collect her number?
Romance › Re: What It Really Means When A Lady Uses The Word "Dear" On You. by SmartyPants(m): 9:47am On Jan 30, 2019
Context is very important of course. Sometimes a girl will use dear, simply because it is too early/she is too shy to call you something stronger than dear.

Sometimes she will call you dear coz she is friend zoning you.

Sometimes, it is just a sign of light affection. Girls closer to you may call you hun.

The conclusion therefore is don't spend your time reading meanings from words. Approach the girl and get a direct response.

Celebrities › Re: Between Simi And Fan Who Said He Wished He Met Her Before Adekunle Gold by SmartyPants(m): 12:19pm On Jan 23, 2019
McStoic:
Simi lacks class and empathy. When people say things like that, it means they appreciate you. She shoulda given the guy a softer landing via a friendlier response. What is bad in saying 'thanks or don't worry your dream lady is on the way'.......Nonsense yeyebrity.
It actually looks like a friendly response and way of emphasizing that she is perfectly happy with the one she has.

Olawalesmarter:
that's not real appreciation, that was disrespectful statement toward her partner. it was like saying "I am better than Adekunle Gold, i wish i meet you first so that you could find out", and moreover the guy knew she was already married, People should stop all these fake Compliment toward married people, respect them and there is always a lot of thing to compliment people with apart from things that look like flirting compliment. That's why there is a lot of broken home in Nigeria today, you people don't respect Married Couple. There is a lot of things to compliment people about if you really like them and you know they are married. You don't have to disrespect her Partner just in the name of complimenting her
Excellent submission sir.

greggng:
Hiv is not only contracted through sex, lots of people got their through infested clippers , some through manicure and pedicure using aboki unsterilise tools. Like some have assured you, is not death sentence . We have seen Ebola kill many. Magic Johnson the great basket baller is still alive today.
There is no verified case of anyone getting HIV from clippers, and there are a number of reasons why this is actually close to being impossible.

thanks, I won't take their drugs. if my time comes I will die. I'm just a mere mortal
Please don't take just every piece of advise from people on nairaland. Go and see a doctor. HIV medication can prevent progression into AIDS indefinitely, and thereby ensure that you live a relatively normal life.

Stay prayerful for God is a merciful healer.
Foreign Affairs › Re: US Deploys Troops To Gabon Amid Fears Of Election Unrest In DR Congo by SmartyPants(m): 3:51pm On Jan 05, 2019
BabaO2:
They are not like Nigerian/African army, they are effective and efficient with the aid of tools doing what 1000 African soldiers can do assigned to just one. However, the choice of Gabon even make their motive more suspicious. Gabon is closer to Goma region, where they have many deposited mineral resources.
Such hyperbole. Is there any example in history where the US has even attempted an invasion with such a small amount of men?

R0ckefeller:
lol a troop could contain as large as 200 soldiers so you should be able to calculate 80 troops now lol
No there is no formation within the military called a troop. The word just loosely translates to soldiers. 80 troops literally means 80 soldiers.

Aphrygian:
Fighting cyber warfare with a computer produced in another country probably riddled with transponders and the likes.
I'm sure they are aware of what is involved.

pacino26:
My brother e weak me too. We've refused to invest in human capacity development and jump into the band wagon of trending technologies to further tell the world how inadequate and unprepared we are.

When was the last independent satellite launch? The country modified network platform? Are they aware the INTERNET is property of the American military? What global positioning system do they have control over? So what exactly is the command for, TWITTER & FACEBOOK?
Nigeria and America are allies and it is in Nigeria's best interest to maintain that status quo. As you can see in the article, the aim is to have the best in Africa, not the world. Thus it is obvious, that the goal is to combat regional threats, not a quest for international supremacy.

Does it occur to you that an effective cyber command might help intercept terrorist communications and race their financial system? What about armed robbers and kidnappers? They use the internet and cyber technology to carry out their operations don't they?

Yahoo boys and fraudsters nko?

You realize the ref is not to blamed for the linesmen's incorrect decisions? He is simply being a gentleman by apologizing.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: EPL: Guardiola Reveals Why Man City Defeated Man United by SmartyPants(m): 10:00am On Nov 12, 2018
vosquare:
Man utd lacked quality. Man utd didn't buy players required by the coach rather he was sticked to developing those he has compared to city which won't develop most but buy another. When you look at juve and city, you will know man utd have a long way to go. In juve, each position have at least 2 players for a spot.. Look at man u, no right wing, no right back very bad. Man u conceded 28 goals in a whole season last year, now they have conceded 21 goals in about 11 to 12 games, now see the reason the coach was after centre back? man u were 19 points behind city and what did the board buy? A young rb, a center mid and a keeper.. Smh

I won't still blame United misfortune on Mourinho, rather the board because he was screaming defenders during pre season but didn't get him one... The board said defenders United have currently is beta than his targets.. Like smalling is beta than Alderweireld...kai. Man u have a long way way way to go.. A team without sport director is failure in disguise.. They don't need to cheat like man city tho but that team a lot of investments
The utd board never said the current defenders are better than Mourinho's targets. The board said the targets would not be significant improvements, and that the targeted players were too old and therefore not worth the prices quoted by their various clubs. And is that logic untrue?

When Jose Mourinho came, Utd had one of the best defenses in the league with Smalling and Blind. Blind was immediately axed without being given a chance under Mourinho. Why?

Mourinho then proceeded to acquire Bailey and Lindelof. That is a complete centre back partnership the board has backed Mourinho to get, in addition to players like Smalling who were good enough to win the premier league under Sir Alex Ferguson.

You can't tell me all these defenders are suddenly so bad that Mourinho must continue to spend in order to improve the team.

And btw who told you the board just gets up and buys players??
Travel › Re: Nairalanders In Other African Countries I Need Your Advice,i Want To Relocate by SmartyPants(m): 8:33pm On Nov 10, 2018
IamaNigerianGuy:
Stay in Nigeria and start a business. 1 million won't get you anything in neighboring African nations that you can't get here. In Ghana for instance, you need $300k to start a business as a Nigerian

With 1 million you can start a small Calabar kitchen, a generator repair shop, or begin trading palm oil. All these are potentially very lucrative. Alternatively, you can invest that million in your education or get some certification. NEBOSH, welding, NDT sell like hotcake in the oil industry.

With only a million ($2500) and no backup, friends or relatives in a foreign land, you'll soon run out of money and either return home or be led into crime to survive.
I would largely agree here. If you have any decent bit of money just stay in Nigeria and find something to do. Truth is, every other country makes life a bit harder for foreigners in order to protect their own.

But to advice you better, tell us what skills and resources you already have or what business you think you can do best. @ msytery22

Yet the dullards government claims to have technically defeated BHT. Watch as the stupid Army first denies their death, then goes on to give them a military burial, that will still leak to the public. Buhari has been a disaster front and back.
Had it been the army posting information of a successful raid, wouldn't you and your type ask for pictures as evidence?

Where are the pictures here?

myfootballface:
"The injury is one thing, the victory of the World Cup is another," Koscielny said. "I think the victory certainly made me much more psychologically hurt than my injury.

This is a sad but true reality about life. Because he couldn't make the world cup, therefore he's angry the team could succeed without him. It's sad but I see this everytime. It's either we succeed together or we both fail together grin Psychologists in the house what is the term for this? See my sig...

Meanwhile
That's not what he said.

He said two different things:

1. He is angry with people who abandoned him

2. He is personally sad that he wasn't able to play in the world cup Victory

He is currently injured and could not have played a part even if he was picked.

Christianity Etc › Re: Foluke Adeboye: When You Fall Out Of Cash, Your Wife Will Fall Out Of Love by SmartyPants(m): 7:36pm On Oct 04, 2018
lexy2014:
D statement reads thus: "When u run out of cash, she falls out of love".

4a person to run out of something means d person had that thing b4. To run out of money means u had money b4. So d context isn't about those who don't have jobs. D statement is clearly saying if u run out of money, ur wife's love 4u will wane which isn't supposed 2b. Having Money shouldn't b a condition 4 winning or securing a woman's love b4 or during marriage.
Look carefully:

There should be no deceit in courtship.

The emphasis is on avoiding deceit

Don’t marry a wife on credit.

An instruction that one should live within ones means

Whatever you can afford is what you should do. Cut your coat according to your cloth (not your size).

Reiterating the previous instruction and clearly showing that the amount of money in possession is not the issue.

Get a job before marriage. When you fall out of cash she falls out of love.


Clearly the message is, do not lie or borrow money to create the appearance of a lifestyle you do not truly have the capacity to sustain otherwise when you run out of money, the woman who fell in love with you on the basis of your false pretenses will fall out of love with you.


Be objective.

lexy2014:
which context are u talking about? D contentious statement means that money is a condition 4 love. A man could loose his job in d middle of a marriage & "run out cash". In that case, what happens? D lady will "fall out of love", right?
I have already clearly shown the context.

She did not make the statement in isolation, she said other things. Collectively, these provide a context for as to what she was talking about. She was specifically talking to people who don't have jobs but want to get married.

So it is because of money she remain in love with Pastor Adeboye

Nigerian women and money sha !!! Even this highly placed and respected woman is not left out of the parasitic mentality
What she said must be placed in context. She first said, cut your coat according to your size, and another statement to the effect that one should be sincere as to his or her status.

She also first said you should get a job before getting married. I believe that the proper interpretation here is that a man should be gainfully employed enough to take care of his home.
