iamoyindamola:If they reveal that to you already,What will be the point of season 3?The whole mystery that is keeping you and other viewers glued to the show will no longer be there. The pace is just right and the introduction of new characters is brilliant,some of which have a role to play in figuring the whole mystery;the likes of Elgin,Randall and so on. |

First of all,Why will I even buy tickets to listen to songs that my ears have grown accustomed to ?It is not like I am going to behold Zeus in human flesh on stage..Na full fledged human being like me baring our different circumstances.

Celebrities / Re: Omah Lay Wears Bra Thrown At Him By A Fan During His Concert In Berlin [video] by Thales01: 6:51pm On Apr 10, 2023 |
Nigerians and reading meaning into everything..For Pete's sake,he is basking in the euphoria of the great show he is having and is also reciprocating the affection his fan lavished on him.I'm not saying it is ok for a man to wear a bra.But the context in which he is doing it makes the difference.So Tagging him "gay" or "the next bobrisky$ is nothing short of preposterous. |
Celebrities / Re: Israel Adesanya Speaks Yoruba And Pidgin After Victory by Thales01: 5:51pm On Apr 10, 2023 |
The enthusiasm with which he displays our culture is just exemplary..You can just tell that it stems from a deep rooted pride in his Nigerian root;some thing many Nigerians lack because we are too busy copying the western culture.I smiled from ear to ear when I saw him prostrate before his father in the octagon ring after his championship victory. Massive kudos must go to his parents for inculcating an unshakable sense of belonging and his true origin in him. 1 Like |

Phones / Did I Buy A Fake? by Thales01: 7:38am On Oct 01, 2022 |
Good morning, everyone.I need your opinion on this issue. I am trying so hard to believe I was not cheated.I bought this oraimo 27,000 maH power bank for 19,500 naira with high hopes. But one thing that put me off was how fast it charged full.It took less than 8 hours to charge from 56% to 100% in the blink of an eye(I have heard about how slowly that power bank charges).I decided to try it out to boost my phone from 15%.It had barely gotten to 60% when I realised that percentage reader has dropped by 10%(from 100% to 90%).I was baffled by the discharge rate for a power bank of that size that I had to disconnect my phone.I am seriously worried judging by how much I spent on the power bank. Pls Did I buy a fake or Maybe my expectations are unreasonably high? |

Poems For Review / Farewell Message Of July by Thales01: 9:15pm On Aug 01, 2021 |
JULY,having tarried with us for thirty one days bids our fickle world farewell as he prepares to embark on his journey to land of the past with a solemn promise to visit again In a grander style in the coming year; As he turned his head to take a last look at our world behind,Tears in his eyes stood, And he uttered in a dolorous tone: "I am sorry that I could not stay enough long to fulfill all the promises unto you I made when I arrived on the heels of the departure of JUNE. But to take my stead, AUGUST my friend will be here very soon, And he will build magneficiently on the all the foundations I have laid. I beseech you to treat him with the same hospitality you afforded me to find abundant favours in his eyes because of all my friends,he is the most kind" |
Poems For Review / A Nation In Doldrums. by Thales01: 9:42am On Jul 25, 2021 |
O dear Nigeria, Why dost thou in thy little strides bask when thy counterparts keeping Sprinting forward in the race of progress? Once upon a time,thou roared And thy counterparts cowered in reverence at thy unassailable might. Why hast thy mighty roars into moans softened? Nature that adorned thee with a myriad of resources And made thee,among thy peers the cynosure Of envy now cringes at what thou hath become; From thy abode,Peace and Justice hath taken flight like a bird perched on a twig unperturbed until it is startled. Terror now seated upon the throne of the land grins As he hears the agonizing wails of his hapless captives, In shackles bound,pounding relentlessly Against the iron bars of their unforgiving dark dungeon. The gloomy sky above echoes with the unceasing cries of the innocent; The mournful earth below with the blood Of her offsprings has been begrimed. O God in heaven when will thou harken unto the voice of the oppressed? |
Poems For Review / Fleeting Nature Of Life by Thales01: 2:57pm On Jul 18, 2021 |

Poems For Review / Lines Written During My Journey Homeward. by Thales01: 11:45pm On Jul 17, 2021 |
The boundless sky above Is gloomy and all shades of grey. Flanking the narrow smooth tarred road that stretches endlessly before us Are thick shrubs of green that dances briskly to the tune of chilling breeze that whistles by. From the misty eyes of the clouds Pours down rain that splatters on the windshield and roof of our speeding bus, drowning out the hum of the engine. All I see ahead of us through the crystal clear lens of my spectacles Is a hazy view of speeding trucks and cars. Amidst all this, unperturbed by the unfavourable element Of nature that waylays us,a familiar,pleasant smell of home wafts into my dry nostrils from afar, rousing all blissful memories to me so dear from long lost days ( that forever I treasure) from me Time has stolen; As a potter out of clay fashions a statue to his and the eyes of the world alluring, so has this memories moulded me into who I have become today. All the poetry gurus here,I hail una.I am an aspiring poet.I need your candid reviews. 1 Like |
Poems For Review / Bird Of Hope by Thales01: 4:14pm On Jun 20, 2021 |
When the challenges of life prove too much bear Such that I begin to sink in absyss of despair, The bird of hope, after exploring the boundless sky, Unperturbed by wordly cares,comes to rest In my restless heart where it lays a temporary nest. In the course of her stay,she unceasingly sings her melodious strain that slowly away melts my pain Like a block of ice in bowl of water dissolved. When fully sure that my woes have been resolved, She,to the azure space takes flight, bearing on her strong wings,my earthly plights. |

Nairaland / General / Re: If You Don't Want People To Disrespect You, Stop Doing These 10 Things (Opinion) by Thales01: 1:33am On May 24, 2021 |
stanliwise:Apart from your last paragraph,I disagree with your other statements. My deciding to ignore her has nothing to do with neediness.It is simply because I cannot no longer tolerate her BS anymore. In social physchology,there is a law of reciprocity which states that it is natural for us human to return a favor done to us.So on her part,it is downright ingratitude not any sense of entitlement on my part.That was why I called her out JOKINGLY for not returning the favor. Morever,she was the one who befriended me as a senior colleague.So she practically has nothing to offer me.So I obviously don't have anything to lose but she does. |

[quote author=stanliwise post=101993026] Well it is easy to be angry against this said girl but you what you didnāt realize is that you placed yourself in a position you only created. She never beg for your calls, She never owe you a call back, You werenāt really calling because of anything but because of attention. At the end, You felt entitled You became angry You became needy. This is just plain game nice guys play. Had it been you communicated your intention early, You were direct with your actions, You watched the feedback and took actions. You were always ready to move on if you donāt see yourself in the picture You would have had a happy ending [/quote 2 Likes |

Op,I second Point 2 strongly.I had to learn my lesson the hard way. There was this girl;a junior colleague I was genuinely interested in helping with school stuffs.i called her like twice a week to check up on her.I realized that she hardly call me at all and when I decided to jokingly call her out on it(in order not to seem needy),she told she was broke and can't afford to call. I believed her and kept my weekly routine of calling her.As Time went on,I started noticing a pattern I did not like;Her phone rang twice as much as before till she decides to pick to few minutes into our interaction when I call her ,she would come up with silly excuses and promise to call back so that she can quickly go off the phone. What pissed me off was the day I called her and she blatantly ignored my call by leaving her phone to ring on my ear.Since that day,I realized how much cards I invested in this girl that did not get reciprocated by her.I felt cheated.I vowed since then that I was never going to call this girl again or any other person (except family members of course) who does not reciprocate my gesture. 16 Likes 1 Share |

Why are the guys above reprimanding her? Do they think it is easy to be a rich man's child and have a very low standard when it comes to men? She should be commended for levelling the playing field for every Tom,dick and harry. As it is now,the likes of shatta bandle have a good shot at her.All they have to do is save the bones anytime they eat meat so they can feed the dogs. Kudos to dj cuppy. |

Romance / Re: What Do We Call This Guy? Simp Or Romantic by Thales01: 2:54am On May 15, 2021 |
This is apparently one of the proud sons of the great SIMPson family. For the dude up there who is saying he cannot pinpoint where the dude went wrong,it is obvious you don't know game. First of all his comment about wanting to own the girl was too intrusive and flippant.He unapologetically objectified the girl and subconsciously told her that it was the only light in which he saw;A commodity to be possessed and nothing more.No decent woman deserves to be denigrated in that manner imo. She subtly rebuffed his aggressive advance by giving him an unrealistic condition on which she would accept his proposal.In doing so,she established the frame that she would be the one calling the shots not him. The mumu obviously bereft of social intelligence(a very unattractive trait)who was trying to prove all alpha by his intrusive approach end up showing he was a beta male(simp)in disguise by buying into her frame and subsequently giving in to her terms sheepishly.By doing so,he subserviently handed her his balls and permitted her to do anything she pleases with it. Men like this don't deserve a pair of testicles. #Spit 2 Likes |
Poems For Review / Life's Dual Options by Thales01: 7:18pm On Mar 21, 2021 |
The options life affords us are twofold Equally for both the feeble minded and the bold; To search steadfastly for gold in life's mine Or to remain complacent that everything is just fine. To seize every opportunity as they come along Or to continually sing procrastination's own song. To wallow in the rubbles of life's inevitable woe Or to learn a lesson from humanly mistakes we constantly rue. To stay in life's comfort shore And savor while they last,the fleeting scenery Or dive into the deep waters of mystery And discover the myriad of hidden treasures. |
Poems For Review / No Place Like Home. by Thales01: 7:02pm On Mar 21, 2021 |
Amidst journeying through life's wilderness, My heart is always fulsome with merriness at the thought of returning to my homely nest Like weary birds after the day's labour to rest. Priceless is the motherly embrace where I find long lasting solace; Equally doting is the fatherly pat of pride On the back for my academic stride. My itchy ears incessantly pines for specific details Of my cheerful siblings' endless tales About all that has happened in my absence; There is literally no place like home hence. 2 Likes |
