Business / Re: Forex Trade Alerts: Season 20 by thetruthmale: 12:49pm On May 12, 2020
Saxy4c has more than enough self-awareness so there is no need telling him what he knows.

For newbies like me; on following mentors.

I want to advice that you reduce the "noise," follow few people that align with your style (assuming you have gotten to the level where you understand your trading style) and copy them very well till you really get their style. Yes, skills are transferable.

Saxy4c you don't have to post anything here but, you do and you mentor people like me and you do it consistently and for free. If people realise how difficult it is to get mentors like you dem go take advantage of wetin dem get in real time.


.

Lastly, saxy4c abeg once once dey post your set ups some of us wan pick your brain.

Thank you for all you do.

Lol... The bot just suspended me for posting any on beeetc.

The bot na tyrant like Wike. The screenshots of beeetc analysis reposted. D1 and H1 charts.

The guy is sitting on a good s/r area. If it breaks 8.7k I'd be longing. If it breaks 8.1k I'd be shorting.

But, my bias is long as the guy get good fundamentals.

Family / Re: Why Am I So Unemotional? by thetruthmale: 4:12pm On Dec 25, 2018
UyaiIncomparabl:
Why am I so unemotional? I mean, nothing hardly interests my fancy. Just this morning, I've received countless 'Yuletide's' greetings from acquaintances and close friends, but I haven't even deemed it fit to return the texts nor the calls. I intentionally rejected two calls from unknown persons who I know were calling to wish me a Merry Christmas. Nothing ever interests me.

I'm not even turned on/elated of the fact that today is Christmas. Seeing people passing by and chanting at the top of their voices 'Eku Odun' or 'Merry/Happy Christmas my sister' really irks me a lot. I wonder what the whole fuss is all about!

I mean, I've just been trying to force myself to reply people who've been disturbing my ears to the ongoing celebration, and in actuality, I don't even mean it.

I remember warning someone yesterday never to wish me anything else I block him. How sad!

Now, the whole summary of my post is, I'm not fun-seeking. I'm too rigid. I'm never elated at any celebration. I don't go to see movies. I hate eateries. The mall scares me. I tell off the few friends I have, but they understand my madness and they keep returning. I hardly get moved if someone is even dying. I always find faults in everything.

Am I mentally deranged or totally normal?
Am I a sadist? Why am I so unemotional? Right now, my mind is filled with strife. I truly agree now and think that I need mental help. I think I'm a psycho.


Most people here know nothing about what you might be going through so, you need discern what you take.

Also, most here share similar disposition which isn't much of a surprise as it is a fact that most Nigerians suffer from depression.

.

Now, I am not try to label you... But, you might want to take psychological tests (you can search for them online eg "test for depression"wink especially if you think this is a problem... Your last paragraph suggests so.


Also, try seeking help... I strongly advice that you seek professional(Psychologists or Psychiatrists not clergies) help, teaching hospitals have them.


You can dm @MentallyAwareNG on twitter they are an NGO that deals with mental health issues.

Good luck.

Education / Re: I Need Suggestions On A Campus Oriented Contest One Can Organize For Undergradua by thetruthmale: 2:09pm On Dec 19, 2018
opthinker:
I and my friends are trying to organize a contest for undergraduates in my Alma mater , that can involve very creative team work, puzzles, ideas etc that can make them form teams or groups and the nest team will win some cash.

Pls I need great ideas.

Off the back of my head... May not be great though.

Try an idea I termed "poetic justice"

The whole idea is adding flavour to poetry.

.

The poet can be reciting her poetry while another member of the group plays piano in the background and/or have other act drama on stage.

The most creative, best synced etc wins.
Romance / Re: This Is What My Ex-husband Did To My House. A Monster For Real. by thetruthmale: 12:20pm On Dec 19, 2018
revontuli:
I couldn't tell any of this to my close friends and family cause of shame.
Easier to tell complete strangers you know. I felt ashamed for allowing this to happen.
I got the divorce in 2017 but didn't have the mental energy to kick him out and dealing with the lawyers and such, until this past summer.
I shouldn't be ashamed, the shame isn't mine but it's quite embarrassing to tell family and most friends about such a thing.

He got committed into mental hospital against his will for violent and suicidal behavior before, I found that out much much later.

It's understandable and totally normal that you didn't tell family... The fear of being stigmatised is tangible.

MW strangers are strangers and they don't know you, even when they judge you wrongly it won't matter much (depending on your personality of course).

.

I believe you have achieved a level of relief by pouring it out here and that could help your mental health.

However, based on the evidences on your posts you may still have some attachment to him, you clearly hate him and you also have anxiety due to your fear and apprehension that he might attack you.
.

We do not know the extent to which this is affecting your life, the potentials to cause trauma far reaching into diverse aspects of your life. So, you have to do something about your mental health.

You are a smart woman. If you aren't seeing a Psychologist already, put it in your plans to do so.


Also, you deserve a better man.

Cont.

I have tried several times to breakup but her reactions have been scary.

She didn't eat for almost 24hrs one time and, she brought a knife to my room on another occasion.

Sometimes I get scared she might poison me or kill me after finding out I was flirting with someone else or they with me.
.

Just my very close friends know about the original arrangement, the rest of the world think we are the best couple after Romeo and Juliet.

.


To be sincere, I have been conditioned to having her around.


I wish I was quite assertive the first time.
Romance / Re: My Unassertiveness, My Enfeeblement: I Need To Be Helped! by thetruthmale: 5:58pm On Jul 06, 2018
This story is real... I'm still in the relationship.

This write may seem fictional because the writer in me just wants to spice it up.

I would have sworn but, I am not a religious person so, it won't mean much.

However, I am serious and I need real (matured) advice abeg.

Cont.

She said that in our second year.

In our second year I stayed in a one room apartment with an irritating toilet and bath and I also had a roomie. Classic babe repellant right?

So, being rich was out of the question.

I am also "unfine" sometimes depending on the angle of the camera, and stress I can be very ugly. I even have a bad denotation sef. I look good here and there though.


So, there goes fine boy too.


Yes, I am smart but, I am not the nerd kinda smart.

To my credit, I am athletic built, 5ft, 11inch, I am a good listener and counselor. I am a dreamer and I believe I have an aura of wealth because I never feel poor even when I am dead broke and comments from observers reinforces this. People like being around me and ~even if I have to say it my self ~ I am kind hearted and generally a good person.


I agreed to her plea...

She isn't the first to ask me out or show blistering "green light" that I have dated.

I agreed because I pitied her, I mean how low can she bring herself? I was also scared she'd act irrational if I had stood my ground. So, I adjusted the goal post.


We started dating. She started showing signs of insecurity and possessiveness. I tried to curb her excesses though.


She has been a good girlfriend generally but, she has faulted her side of the bargain several times.

.


I asked her not to let anyone know about us at the department. She faulted.

I told her I'll be attracted to other girls and she should stay out of it. She faulted.

In our penultimate year everyone in the department had known that we were together. I didn't like this, I told her but, I played along.

Her family knows me. Even her mother!. Everybody knows us as a couple.

She talks about marriage and acts like the conversations we've had about "no commitments... That the department shouldn't know about us... That this is just till we graduate" never happened.


.



I understand that she loves and cares about me and that it is difficult to understand what the workings of the "heart". This is why I have been a good boyfriend to her so far.


Now, we are in our final year (last semester).

Things got better for me... I moved to a selfcon in my 3rd year. I also have had more money around and I have treated her right when I have enough.

So far I have been her mini dad, food, transport, little payments here and there. She stays with me now even though she has her own hostel.

This is just to show that I have been good to her to even though I didn't have to.
Romance / My Unassertiveness, My Enfeeblement: I Need To Be Helped! by thetruthmale: 3:07pm On Jul 06, 2018
I am in a "forced" relationship.

I don't want this relationship, I have told her this several times but, she won't go and I'm not assertive enough to push her.

I do not like to bother about romantic relationships... Not to the extent of coming to NL but, this one don weak me. I am exhausted.


My story.

She was admitted to our department through DE (direct entry) so, she needed to do some catching up. I am known to take people on tutorials and that's how we started getting close.


We started going for night classes, then I'd visit her at her place... We grew closer and she started talking about her troubled relationship ~ I had problems in mine too ~ her relationship didn't last much, neither did mine.

We got closer and started making out at her place, she got me good meals and started checking on me often. It became very apparent that she liked me but, I just wanted sex (does this make me bad?).


We had our first sex after she insisted on coming to my place. This sex was beyond bad...about a minute. She was disappointed, I had to make up for the bad sex but, I saw that she got to attached and I didn't want to go further.


The next day I apologised for the bad sex. I told her that I didn't want a relationship and that I wasn't ready for commitment.

Yes, she's not the kind of girl I want even if I wanted to date. I was very clear that I didn't want a relationship. It was hard but I did it.


I thought I had done the hard job until she came back crying... Ah! If you cry then you've got me in your control yet I didn't bulge.


She did the saddest thing and beg for a relationship... She begged for a deal.

"just date me till our final year, then we go our separate ways"

I'm a writer.. But I'm not not surprised many Nigerians including you can't deduce it from my comment... i mean with the kind of demented brain you guys have I'm not surprised at all.... As for that thing you call a prayer it will befall on not just you, but your family including the pigs that brought you into this world ten fold.

Dumbo... The prayer wasn't mine, I am just wishing you what you wished others.

Sociopaths always justify their abnormal thoughts and actions. Everybody thinks you are sick but you don't. Are you surprised?

The difference between the both of us is I am tryna save the world from the danger that you pose.

You are toxic to humanity.

Keep justifying your freaky self.

Your impending downfall is lurking and hovering around your head.

I have nothing against your family and parents, for all I know they could just be victims of you.

Olórí burúkú.

Pets / Re: Why I Named My Dog ‘buhari’ — Joe Chinakwe by thetruthmale: 11:23pm On Aug 18, 2016
StOla:


Why are some people so self-destructive, suicidal and craving for conflict and anarchy?

The Northerners did not misconstrue his intention. They know him to be a hateful Igbo, the likes of which vent their frustration and misery on this forum and other online media. Now an Ipob member who has forgotten he is not in Aba, has met his match in Buhari's tribesmen. Even if the complainant is claiming to have Buhari as his father's name / surname, it is evident that both defendant and plaintiff are fighting a tribal proxy war over President Buhari.

Can he name his dog Ojukwu or Azikiwe? Imagine a Yoruba man in Nnewi naming his goat Ojukwu, or a Fulani man in Aba naming his dog Nnamdi Kanu and parading it around the IPOB meeting centres? That is the suicidal attribute the Igbos are known for. Imagine using such a revered name in a community populated by Hausa-Fulani? Even if he had named the dog Awolowo, I know his Yoruba hosts may find it repulsive, but would not react violently, resulting in the boldness of the Igbo man who then concludes that Yorubas are cowards and are docile.

Since the Igbo man welcomes bravery and detest the peaceful Yorubas as weaklings, let him celebrate and enjoy the bravery of his Hausa-Fulani neighbours. It is stupidity such as this that was displayed by Igbos in the North, that led to their slaughter in the Northern pogroms as a Northern civilian reaction to the Jan 1966 coup killings of Northern politicians and Army officers.

However, whether the coward directed his friends of hate to eat up his own dog is irrelevant as no case exist here, talk-less of an implication. Nevertheless, the arrested man is safer in that police custody as his bigoted life will be wasted without a second thought, the moment he steps out of police "custodial protection".
We all know the Hausa-Fulani, they don't need to mouth hatred and beat their hollow chest to teach an equally hateful lesson.

See what hate has caused now? His days of peace are over in that community. Except he is released by the police directly at Aba, where his fellow bigoted clansmen will welcome him as a hero who had to runaway from Yorubaland because of Hausa-Fulanis who are his fellow settlers.

After his brain was reset at the police station, hear him declare eternal love for Buhari.



His actions were wrong but, please can we stop this generalisations.

please.

Fajuyi proves anybody who calls Yorubas cowards wrong.

I must also point out that the Jan 1966 coup might have been headed by Igbos but had Yorubas and Hausas involved. It was welcomed by the nation at that time because it a fight against corruption. Until our ethnic differences were exploited...

Thanks.

Do you know what is most surprising to me. The fact that Nigerians are surprised about it. What do you think happens in a corrupt country? There is no facet of life in Nigeria that has not been infected with corruption. None whatsoever. What would be surprising is if it did not happen.

Education / UNILORIN & Tablet PC, Wifi And Sweatshirts: By A Concerned Student Of UNILORIN by thetruthmale: 12:06pm On Jul 03, 2016
So, I have decided to let the world know my plight and, that of my fellow helpless, confused, sometimes tired and, confused student.

What you are about to read are nothing but the truth but, I will propose means to verify my claims.

This short essay will gives insight into the unfair treatment meted out to helpless student of ...UNILORIN in general and my department in particular.

UNILORIN:
1. Tablet pc: Since 2013 first year students are been mandated to pay extravagant fees, about N25,000 of that money is reported to be for the acquisition of android tab. Sadly, they are substandard, any student will readily attest to how sub-standard these tabs are, only a meager number of students use theirs beyond a semester because it develops faults easily, the calibration always has fault, in fact, mine developed fault just lying on the ground.
Also, the 'mass' production of a tab that substandard should be not more than N10,000 but, unfortunately we are charged an exorbitant fee of 150% extra.
Currently, the freshers and some 200L students are yet to receive the tabs. Bear in mind that the money for the tabs have been paid for with the school fees, also bear in mind that the purpose of the tab was to 'aid' learning and we are already having second semester exams.


2. Wifi and Sweatshirts: At the resumption of the 2015/16 session students were compelled to pay N5,000 and N2,500 for Wifi and sweatshirt respectively.
Social sciences didn't get the Wifi infrastructure till the second semester.
For the sweatshirts... there was an uproar in school over how substandard the sweatshirts were, just wash them for about three times and they will fade as if you have been using them for over two years. As at the time of writing this, only the 100L and final year students have received their sweatshirts. Those sweatshirts will take nothing more than N1000-N1200 to produce, but then we paid N2,500.

FACULTY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES (MY DEPT):
1. Sexual harassment and paying for results: By now some of you must have heard about a Dr. Idiagbon of the Faculty of Arts that sexually harassed a female student. Breaking News! THERE ARE MORE!!! like him in Social sciences.
I have first hand knowledge and information about sexual harassment in my department (For now, I will not mention names of Lecturers or department). I also have first hand experience of a lecturer collecting money for results. These people are my 'friends' and fellow students and, that's why I've decided not to name names.
My problem with these acts is that the lecturers automatically makes foes of those students that wouldn't act obsequiously. I and some other diligent students have been dealt by this.
In the 2014/15 session a certain lecturer even after facing allegations of bribery and other offences eluded judgement because he has 'legs.' Students don't talk publicly or call for results because of the fear of victimisation.
Well, I know students that paid bribes, female students that were favoured, and student who were treated badly. Hmm, still not calling names.

UNILORIN' ROLE IN VERIFYING MY CLAIMS AND CURBING THIS MENACE:
1. Carry out a survey among students (students must be anonymous), survey should be directed towards (i) knowing students who have been harassed or knows somebody who has, (ii) knowing lecturers who are involved etc.
If these lecturers perceive that they are being watched, they will behave.
2. Create a body or mechanism where complaints like this can be lodged anonymously so students don't suffer the repercussion.
3. Give us goods worth our money.
4. Students shouldn't be mandated to pay for tablets, the country is tough enough.

This is the cry of so many students feeling helpless. Please EPP US!
NB: I've good grades, but my grievance is that it should have been better if not for lecturer-impunity. Written sociology faculty courses are good examples of mindless allocation of marks.
Even if nothing is done about the past, at least, something should be done to curb further occurrence.
UNILORIN 'Probitas Doctrinas (In learning and in character)' shouldn't be limited to students alone.
