DameB:


What that doctor did is totally unethical

You didn't see then here on nairaland telling people to Google and not disturb them?

IMAliyu:

Something like deathnote and steins;gate are non action, but are great in their own way. It's all about the story.

Death Note was fine until I got tired of the talking. Only the last episode was worth it, right from the beginning. Can't remember the story. All the talking was all that comes to mind

IMAliyu:

Yeah

Without action? That's like watching anime without a protagonist.

IMAliyu:

Soulreaperzone.
I think i have it saved in my mega cloud storage as well.
If you are willing to watch older anime or non action anime there are still a lot of good unwatched anime out there.

Is that an anime still?

Mark23:


Season one is over. Season 2 might come out in 2021 I don't really know. Maybe they'll announce the date in the movie that's coming.

2021? Are you kidding?? These guys are nuts. If there will be a movie, I look forward to some serious action, and soon too.

Mark23:


You're right. All I can say is, keep watching. I don't want to drop spoilers

Isn't this anime now on hiatus? You can never watch a good anime till the end without these breaks.

nani667:
Time travel Arc begins....

I'm dreading these fillers. Once I saw the Mirai Sasuke-chuunin Sakura interaction I had to lay off.

What happened to Shingeki no Kyojin? The wait is intolerable. Or will it no longer be released?

Nowadays, I can't find any good anime to watch. They're all uninteresting. Any good anime always seems to come to an inexplicable end.

BTW, anywhere I can download the second Fate Stay movie? Heavens Presage 2?

I think they were used long before Nigeria's Independence

Very interesting. Do you think they were locally made or with development/processes brought along by the colonials? I hope you will not mind donating them to a museum one day when future Nigerians will decide to appreciate their cultures more .

jeff1607:


Don't know where there sourced from, but they are usually handed down to younger generations (offsprings) and also used for ceremonies

Wow. Is there any particular type of family who owns it, for instance descendants of any common ancestor such as a king?

Also, do you think it is a culture that will be passed down through your family without Western influence on the nature of such things?

[quote author=jeff1607 post=83527329][/quote]
What are these coins used for? What is their origin? Were they used to pay bride prices? Or simply as gifts?

jeff1607:


just as u said the ones that have holes(my great grandma once said these type are usually left in termite mounds after they are made ,hence the holes) and the emerald stone brown type has alot of value, people has brought as high as 400k to buy but can't sell them ,they are priceless,

as u sell remember to keep for your kids as a sort of heirloom .

these are over 8 generations old, the ones with plenty of holes are kept by the females from where I come from ( they transfer these to their daughters)

Very interesting. What tribe are they for, and what is their ceremonial purpose? Where are the beads sourced from? So many wonderful old things you have there.

TOPCRUISE:

Yeah. I returned to sing again. But unlike before I was put back stage. The choir were helpful. The next church I went to, they want me to join choir. I said no.

LOL

CanadianNaija:


Tell am! Maybe OP expects people to follow him and demonize the brother.

God knows how lonely the poor man must be, and what he must have experienced to make him keep everybody at arm's length.

Perhaps he's keeping everybody at arms length because he's full of the assumption that people are contacting him for money.

Why do Nigerians always think it's about money? He said it has to do with the guys marriage to a girl the family didn't like. How did you manage to make it about imaginary money? Is it really about money or you people don't have love even for your own families anymore?

Yes, people think you earn the billions you probably don't, but is that a reason to cast away your family? The only Nigerian who understands family is Linda Ikeji. First and foremost is unity. His brother can reject their money advances without making it outright enmity. If he was as lonely as you claim he could tell them what he felt, but because he thought it was about money, according to you and the host of loveless money obsessed people, he decided to treat his family coldly.

solite3:
the answer is mr flesh, it destroys anything it lays his hands on.
The solution is that pastors not just must submit themsleves under the greater pastor ( the Lord Jesus).
They should see Jesus as the head of the church and themsleves as just servant doing the will of his master.
The race must be run according to lay down rule set by the master anything short of this they are outside the will of God.

Why are pastors always above the law they preach? Then you cannot abuse them and deal with them because of the touch not my anointed clause, but aren't we all anointed? They need to be accountable to someone. Some are apprentices to wicked, evil bitter pastors and so remain in their folly.
Those who are pastors need a higher authority that will hold them accountable for their actions while they are on Earth. My wish for the above pastor is that he faces judgement, because he is a worker of iniquity and oppression to me.

I never knew his character until I got close to him. You have people saying no one is righteous. If that is the case, then such pastors should step down. They are doing more harm than good.

@Topcruise
I know an angry pastor who never takes it easy, fights with people, curses them and feels it is okay. He has no remorse about it. He lies and scams people. He is vengeful. He feels he is God on Earth, that he can make and unmake. He drives and abuses other road users.

His defense? Touch not my anointed, and that passage with Elijah and the 42 children.

His temper is always flaring for use on cursing and giving people hard words, he hardly uses soft words. I feel his ministry is fake. He and his wife are like two angry, dubious bulldogs. They take money from people and devise means not to return it, even when they know they are debtors.

Why is it that pastors are given so much room to be vagabonds when we are all the royal priesthood? What makes them feel they are so special when we are all anointed for the kingdom of God? Why must we tolerate their excesses and why do they feel they cannot apologize or restitute because they're pastors? And more importantly, why are they so full of it?

TOPCRUISE:
Embarrassing moment was when I was persuaded to join choir. Well I join choir due to persuasion of the sisters that they need a brother to join. I rehearse the song very, very well. Then as lead choir I was to address the crowd with the song. Fear first of all catch me. As I held the mike and I faced the congregation, I forgot the song immediately. I face the choir make dem help me. They were shocked. I shouted, hello so many times, I mumured some incoherent words back to dem to signal I have forgotten the song, they sheepishly smiled back. All the pastors where laughing inside out. They knew me to be a shy person and yet they were the ones that convinced me to join choir. I stammered, grumbled, talk, mumured, struggled and managed to drag the song join with the help of the choir till the end. As I drop mike and went to my seat the stunned congregation were just looking at me. I have learnt my lesson anyway.

Funny. Did you return to sing again?

deavicky:
I was invited to Jehovah witness i didn't know the routine, so it was time for communion. i was seated at the first seat on the first row, so when they brought the communion the man stood at my front for some good number of seconds so i thought i was supposed to take it so he can go to the next person. I had to take the bread. i became the only one in the church of over 1000 person's to take the communion. When i realized i was the only one who took it. to make matter worse, when they brought the wine i refuse to collect it. every eyes was on me i felt like melting.

So funny! Why didn't you just collect the wine?

What manner of people did this to her?

BluntBoy:


Why? What are your reasons?

The reason is that as a Nigerian you have a weak approach to the rights and choices of others around you. There's this feeling of entitlement. It is the reason market traders feel it is their right to feel up any female passing their shops, because who are you? Are you made of gold? You aren't even attractive, so you should let them feel you up. The same reason a man goes to a club and touches a woman without her permission, then he gets others to support him because she's ugly and so what if he did. The same reason female students complain about sex for marks and you need a BBC undercover operation to expose it, and even when they do, you can see a lot of males think it is a setup and that the girls are making a fuss and they should let the lecturers have their way, or that the lecturer is innocent as nothing happened.

What makes you think the driver has the right to be responded to politely when he is clearly failing in his ethics as a driver and as a right thinking individual? The lady said she was uninterested, why did he press on? She repeated again, her disinterest in his attempt, after his confession of sleepless nights over her, and he still pressed on!

Do you understand harassment? The problem is that in Nigeria people violate others privacy with impunity and feel it is their right. Outside that little hole, it is a crime and he is trespassing her right to be treated with professionalism. She didn't ask to be bugged after her trip, he decided to misuse her contact details to his unethical advantage of scoring. To make matters worse, when she refused he resorted to the moral high ground of inferiority complexes "are you looking down on me because I'm a driver?". He feels entitled. Why can't he look elsewhere?

With her information, imagine if he decided to threaten her rather than his oppressive love messages? How right would you think he is? That will give you the answer to how right it is to use her information without her permission. Forget all the "girls are rude" misinterpretations, what would you do if you were in her shoes?

People have the right to be asked their permission for certain things. Even your device apps need your permission. They aren't entitled to it or a good response from you when they violate it. Even if a million other people accepted it, once you say no, it means no.

Spanishmilf:
instead of chaining the poor dog he should cage him.....
Caucasian are aggressive and very protective he should also play with him

I'm a proponent of both caging and chaining for short periods of time to instill discipline in dogs

skin2care4:
There is this skin problem I have Been having on my body for quite a while now especially on my chest as you see in the pic below.

It doesn't seem to respond to all the treatments I have used on and it's not itchy, it doesn't hurt at all. and it seems it runs in the family including some of my cousins too. Please and please Doctors and skincare experts in the house can you help me with a solution to this problem? Am planning on getting married very soon. Thank you God bless.

Forgive me, but what part of your body is that? If your relatives have it, maybe it's not something communicable. See a dermatologist.

Public Service Announcement.

Regiomontanus:
Lol. As Martinez39 once said, when a woman is speaking on certain issues, you will know it's a woman without being told. Bye bye.

I grew up with women. They are humans.

Most of us who rant online against women are used to clean our woman's buttocks squeaky clean but want to act "woke". Some are still living in their mothers basements.

To be a man means to be scornful and bitter at women. Any man who disagrees is a woman. Men cannot sympathize. Men do not have daughters to understand. Men do not have sisters to understand. They live in a vacuum of men. Once you understand the perspective of a woman you must be one.

Behold, the logic of the men of nairaland!

You live by the words of another man. Lol. I hope you sleep with his eyeballs, too.

Regiomontanus:
If only you girls realised how powerless and ineffective your sophistry and manipulation are, you girls won't bother writing your trash because it's deceiving nobody. This manipulation, that most mothers have been using since the beginning of time, has been exposed by Martinez39 and no trash by any nairaland female can change that.

Once a man doesn't subscribe to your bitterness with women it must be a female?

No wonder there are deadbeat men. To be a man does not translate to uncontrollable hatred and disrespect for women.

The reason why women do that is because of men like you. You have empowered them. You are the reason those ones called feminists exist.

Understandably we have reached an age where men wish to compete with women, we are looking for how to absolve ourselves of failures on the homefront, but we need to be realistic with all the hatred we heap on women.

Are women the cause of broken homes or are there really deadbeat fathers? On whose shoulders do the responsibilities of family fall? The head of the home or the weaker vessels? Why bear the title of the head and do nothing with it?

Most here sympathize with their fathers now because they're dead and the passage of time has made them softer on the man. If a man cannot take time to be with his family and understand them, then his wife will rightly preach about him to the children. He has an equal chance to, but he's not interested in it probably because his family is not that important to him "it's my wife's business".

If you check it carefully, most African fathers are terrible. The children make excuses for them and try to paint them in a good light when they become terrible fathers as well or when the fathers die. There's this guy, O-tea who wrote on that. There's a cycle of bad fatherhood. The mentality that there are so many women we can have and impregnate when one annoys us is the reason why we tend to treat our families badly. We think we will start a new family. Sometimes we do and sometimes we don't. When we get lonely we act like we were good to them in the past. And when you think of how your father's died alone, you feel bad, but do not want to think of why that is so...except to blame your mothers. Why weren't your father's better dads? No smoke without a fire.

Blaming women never made us men.

Feranmicharless:
Were you not at any point in life taught how to relate any situation to a parable?

What is the parable you were taught in life that you see in the needless statement about his parents?

Everyone is blowing hot indeed

What does the story of his parents have to do with anything?

Modern parenting.

When you don't flog the silliness out of them, because your child is too intelligent and sensitive, look at what you could reap.

Spare the rod and...

MyOleSolksjaer:
As for the HIV part, churches mandate you must do HIV and STD test before marriage.

What if the test results presented during the screening were fake and someone has something real to say? I mentioned HIV, but it's not only HIV that people conceal. There are some other illnesses.

Kendumazy:
All these pastor with their "is there anyone who has a reason not to join this couple together" saying. They should do away with that saying joor. It's outdated. Honestly, I really hate that saying.

Would you feel the same way if there person objecting to the marriage has something important to say? Something like "the bride has HIV"? Or "the groom is currently married to three other women, are you aware of it?"? Or "she killed her last husband, here are the police reports"? Or, "he is an armed robber, convicted of killing three people"?

The saying is outdated, but it is relevant. We don't suppose you would keep quiet if you knew such a thing and it was your own flesh and blood going into such union.
