Absolutely!
I'm trolling an friend of mine who has been a Patriots fan for 20 years.
She dey vex now on fb

My Cowboys are out and I can't stand those cheating Patriots, so I'm a Falcons Fan today.

Curioussme:
Hi peeps, I've been dating this guy for almost 4 years now, and I've noticed when I need a major financial assistance from him, he'll just enter low key and be giving flimsy excuses like he doesn't have plans for me.

The most recent one that happened is that I need to pay my rent and the money with me isn't enough he's also giving excuses that he has commitments.

Sincerely, am tired of these excuses, I can't imagine getting married to a man who can't support me while am single what will he now do when we're married. He acts like someone who dodges responsibilities by all means.

Am confused right now,is he just a stingy person or what? The last time I needed money from him, I had to quarrel with him about it before he finally gave me money Guys pls help me out

You've been dating for 4 years? You don't have to worry about wondering if this guy will make a good husband. He obviously has no intention of marrying you. Who can blame him? You expect him to support you already? Are you dating your father? You are not married, and it sounds like you have your own place. If he wanted to pay for sex he could get it with a lot less hassles.

Maybe she is not ugly to him. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Or...

Maybe he figures she is more wholesome and clean living

........

Maybe he figures she is more likely a virgin.

........


Maybe he thinks she is less likely to cheat or have the opertunity to cheat.

........

He knows the home is taken care of, the wife is loyal, and not likely to question his moves or leave him. He can now cheat with all the "pretty" girls he wants and not worry about reprisals.

Maybe...

Good morning.

So clueless.

Nigerian culture generally does not include cremation.

People are usually buried in their houses/backyards/cemeteries etc



Great idea, wrong place.

I am well aware of the bolded. That is why I'm asking. I'm curious about what NLers think of this idea...if any would ever consider this. Why or why not?

iPrevail:
What the fvck does this mean?

When you die they cremate you and take your ashes and swirl them into glass objects. What is it you don't understand?

More:

This company will swirl you into class sculptures when you die.

"Our artists, capture the essence of your loved ones spirit in a swirl of color and ashes, Sealed forever within beautiful glass art."

What do you think?

CFCman:
Results have been mixed
Some politicians have had their illicit assets seized by the EFCC, but official corruption still thrives. Just within the last 3 weeks, the FG discovered that wages were being paid to over 50,000 "ghost workers"

Well at least some of them are being caught.

CFCman:
That's why EFCC exists, to catch the thieves

And how's that going?

Aside the fact that the health system in Nigeria is also full of those who rob, cheat and steal from the populous.

CFCman:
It could be a single-payer system or government and private insurance scheme existing together.

People who are employed by a company may be provided health insurance by their companies; or those who are unemployed (and earn less than a certain amount annually) could benefit from a public insurance program to be jointly run by the federal government and the states.
A portion of the trillion Naira tax revenue and/or proceeds from royalties could fund the govt program.

Of course, celebrities who earn millions every year, would have to buy health insurance on their own.

And you think those who rob the government coffers regularly will be willing to give up the funds to supply health insurance for a people they obviously care nothing about...hence the thievery?

CFCman:
Mr Bisi has spoken common sense. It's high time health insurance is made available to all Nigerians.

Who will pay for it?

What has a heavily Pregnant woman has to do with bikini? The panties isn't even visible. Shame!!

You can clearly see them under her arm actually. I wouldn't have chosen the bikini, but she is quite beautiful nonetheless.

plaetton:
What I am saying, which I trust that you fully understand, is that something like death, the cessation of life, what happens at moment of death , and afterwards, cannot be fully explained until an individual experiences the very phenomenon of death.

I find it interesting that a man who claims to believe in logic and science would make such a statement as the bolded. Life, in its simplest form, is energy. Energy never ceases to exist. It simply changes form. So why do you believe we cease. Is it not logic to believe we continue in another form?

plaetton:
Everything woven around the phenomenon are simply legends, myths and illusions.

Simple science can be applied here to deduce the outcome. Since spiritual energy cannot be quantified, in the end, I suppose, technically this theory is only hypothesis till it can be proven. In which case, it can only be proven in death. Anyway, logic and science still have sway here.

plaetton:
For example, I imagine you as a lanky, tall, dark complexion man with a slightly receding hairline. I imagine you to be somewhat snobbish and introverted , until you reach a level of comfort with people , before you liven up to unleash your WORD SORCERY on hapless souls.
Deepsight is real.
But these are my illusions of Deepsight.

Only the EXPERIENCE of meeting you in person would prove these illusions right or completely wrong.

So close, and yet so far.

plaetton:
In a way , yes.

If you haven't been to the city of Paris, everything, every fantasy you have about the city of Paris are mere illusions, until such a time that you have the experience of visiting or being in Paris.
Same thing with NEW York city, or Hollywood.

I think you are confusing illusion and fantasy. Paris is not an illusion. It is, in fact, a real place. I'm not sure this is the best example to use to prove your point.

DeepSight:
No, really they are imaginations or projections of what Paris might be like.

You still have not got the point: get it now:
An illusion would be actually visiting Paris- but understanding that what one sees and perceives is actually a simulation. Its not really there. It's an existential illusion. The existential illusion we live in prior to death.

Somehow when existentialism becomes all consuming, we forget to "live" and begin to only exist.

Even if life itself is only and illusion, it is still the "reality" we currently find ourselves in. Isn't it then wiser to attend to living in this reality? If only, for nothing else but to save our own sanity.

If we are, as you seem to think, just a lab experiment, why simply exist to eventually die? Why not live? Who's to say our observers do not wish us well? Perhaps those who fail to flourish in this illusion are merely "failed experiments".

plaetton:
Compliments of the season, my fair Madame.

We have missed you here.

I have been missing any kind of intelligent discussion on NL. I was about to give up all together.

Good to hear from you plaetton.

urheme:
longest time Ma.

good to have you here.

Who is this?

Interesting discussion.
