Food › We Ordered A Full BBQ Goat Online In Nigeria by spinna(op): 2:13pm On Sep 14

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EBZiYIMCg8

We ordered a full roasted goat online and it wasn't bad..I won't name the restaurant. Plenty of meat but I'm not sure if it was full goat more like half goat.

Well based on how Nigerians are, or can be, I was pleased..because what appeared to be Irish potato was actually so. I hate it when people use sweet potato instead of Irish potato

The side dishes and garnishings and sauces were excellent. If u look closely u can get the name of the restaurant . I wish they could marinate the goat for like 3 days in freezer then slowly smoke for like one day like those guys in Texas USA do, but I can only dream of that I guess

So could you do this? Order a roasted goat based only on Instagram videos and trust for over 100k? Let's hear 4m u guys

Travel › Man Risks Hands By Provoking Mama Lion At Offa Zoo by spinna(op): 2:33pm On Sep 10

We went to a hotel in Offa, Kwara State, that had a well stocked zoo behind it. By the next time we visited the lions had bundles..I've seen a video of someone trying this and the lion grabbed his finger..
Let's just call it the ignorance (abi na mumuness) of youth, and be thankful it didn't go wrong.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Alberto “Chuchito Nini” Sandoval Killed In Mexico by spinna: 9:29pm On Sep 05

MrEar:
There is a little debate going on online, on whether the young boy's death was necessary.

First of all, if you live by the sword, be prepared to 💀 by the sword.

Secondly, from the news article, 🧐

It is clear that there is no innocence anymore in this boy. If he grows up, with the amout of violence and bloodshed he has seen and participated in, he will become a 😈

This goes to show why sometimes, in the Bible, God ordered the nation of Israel to kill Men, Women and Children in pagan nations that performed human sacrifice and when the nation of Israel committed the same offense (human sacrifice), God used same pagan nations to attack them and kill their Men, Women and Children as well.

If a child from a young age has been trained to witness bloodshed, violence, human sacrifice, as was come in bible times, there is no innocence in that child anymore.

The movie Apocalypto, did a perfect job in silently letting us know this.

.
Interesting you mentioned Apocalypto, the film depicts the ancestors of present day Mexicans. I always feel the callous and blood thirsty nature of the ancestors is reflected in their present generations
