Nauseous also means to be affected with nausea, so one can actually say "I feel nauseous".

Forum Games / Re: Fish Riddle: How Many Fish Left? (See Picture) by tierthefirst: 10:05pm On Jan 13, 2016 |
What's the possibility that it's 10 human beings (or at least some) named fish? I mean, there was nothing specifying that they were actual fish. Just throwing this in there for consideration. I mean, by this consideration, it's possible that some could get out of the tank and still live if they are actually human beings. And if they are human beings, then of course, they can drown in water. The other one that died without drowning could have died of an unrelated cause. However, even if they are human, the riddle says some swam away, not got out of the tank. So by this reasoning all of them should still be in the tank. Hmmmmm....... |

HighPhar0ah: Owwwkaaaayyyy..... i'm confused. What you wrote there went from Akwa Ibom to Cape Town in three lines. I mean, on one hand, not bad points. But on another, you really don't have proof he isn't doing other "christian" things asides building the statue. And then you're swinging at Nigerian artists? Really? We may not have Michelangelos or Da Vincis or Donatellos but Nigeria today DOES have loads of talented artists. You may want to stop comparing commercial art with commissioned art. |

"premarital sexual relations before marriage" Which is it; premarital sexual relations or sexual relations before marriage? I just care about the English here. Or is it possible to engage in premarital sexual relations with the same person after marriage? |

Crime / Re: Thailand Seizes $1m Ivory From Nigeria (Video) by tierthefirst: 5:25pm On Dec 19, 2015 |
Terrible reportage. And here I was, thinking the shipment was owned by the Federal Government or Thailand had sent soldiers to storm our borders to seize ivory. What kind of a headline is that? The shipment was illegal and originated from Nigeria. Doesn't mean it was shipped by the Federal Republic Of Nigeria. So why say Thailand seized ivory from Nigeria? 1 Like |

Interesting..... But if this our young lady knew about this all this while, how come she hasn't said anything to the EFCC since? Or at least the media. It's npt like the PDP government that's being probed now is still in power so she could have at least blown the whistle when Linda bought her 550m home. Really, why wait till now? 3 Likes |

For one, that you saw such magazines being sold on the premises of a big RCCG event doesn't mean they were published or endorsed by the RCCG. I'm not a member of the church but we know Nigerians have a penchant for turning any large event into an avenue to make money. Besides, we should by now be familiar with how Nigerians have taken this sensationalism thing to a whole new level going as far as crossing into the territory of telling blatant lies just to sell copies or get hits. I think it's about time people start sueing more for libel. Maybe some people would think twice before they just write absolute nonsense and defame other people just so they can make money. |

faites: Lol. My dear, the problem is not with the volume per se. The problem is with the quality. Most of the newcomers, let's face it, CAN'T BLOG! Most of them don't know the first thing about blogging, aren't patient enough to learn and give up after one week if they don't get adsense approval or a bank alert.

Webmasters / Re: Why You Most Likely Won't Succeed As A Blogger by tierthefirst: 2:46am On Dec 01, 2015 |
Blogging Really Isn't That Profitable In Nigeria: For all the blogs we have in Nigeria, you would think we have a small pantheon of super rich bloggers. Yet ask most bloggers who their blogging role model is and only one name comes up; Linda Ikeji. Does it mean she's the only really good blogger in Nigeria? Nope. Far from. There are lots of Nigerian bloggers who are amazing in their own way in their own niches. The fact is just that she's one of the few that have made something out of blogging. Most of the other rich or semi-rich bloggers either have day jobs or business that they do while they blog on the side - and it's those jobs and businesses that bring in the big bucks for most of them, not the blogging. You might just want to keep that in mind. 1 Like |

You Don't Take It Seriously Enough: Show of hands - how many people are willing to spend money on their blog to keep it going, even when you're not getting hits? Another show of hands - how many people have ever spent money on their blog? Fact is, for those who hope to make money from blogging, then you have to take it as seriously as any other business and devote your time, energy AND MONEY to ensuring your blog succeeds. Too many Nigerians think "oh, I can start a blog on Blogger or Wordpress and start making millions". It doesn't work like that. Like any business, a commercial blog is an investment. You put little into it, you get little out of it. If you're an entertainment blogger and you're not willing to stay up at night to get the latest breaking news (because, let's face it, most news breaks while the world sleeps) so you can be one of the first to blog about it, then you probably aren't taking blogging seriously enough. And if you don't take your blogging seriously, nobody will. You Follow An Already Bloated Trend: I think I can make bold to say that of every ten new Nigerian blogs, at least half are entertainment/celebrity/gossip/everything blogs a la Linda Ikeji's blog. That niche is already over-saturated. If you'll make any success in it, you'll have to be different in a very remarkable way. Unfortunately, most Nigerian bloggers are not different. Or remarkable. The fact is that, Nigerians know they'll most likely get all the latest - and authentic - celebrity an entertainment news on Linda Ikeji's blog. The chances they'll come looking for yours is practically minute - especially when you ALSO get your news from Linda Ikeji's blog. IF you want to succeed as a Nigerian blogger, you will need to be different and stand out - something most Nigerian bloggers aren't. |
