[quote author=god_of_music]A MOD said 1 and 2 are true na[/quote]Who is the person?

[quote author=val_dubem]1 & 2 is soo true.[/quote]Can you prove that?

chokl8candie: lool . Sweetheart all the 15 problems i stated up there are actually personal problems i go through and thot i'd share on NL. But ur not entirely wrong. I can be an extrovert when im around people im comfortable wiith or pple who dont make me feel uneasy
but fact is i am my bestest company and i dont hv issues being alone or stayin indoors as long as i got tv,fon,movies,gossip girl,internet and exciting novels

Your list is very silly dear.

Besides, this narcissism over introversion is getting too much, people should try to think out of the box occasionally instead of always doing simon says.

If i go over your op one at a time, you'll figure out why most of what you posted is false.

For example, you're saying only introverts are on the internet for long periods of time?

sounds like they were having a gay moment imo.

placing hands on buttocks [and elsewhere] et all.

You people need Jesus to deliver you from all this voodoo stuff.

dare2think: You clearly missed my comparison.



Lets assume you notice something funny on your scrotum and you are worried. You go to a clinic, and alas, the doctor available is female, do you think your wife should/would have issues with the female doctor inspecting your balls?

Dude, when it comes to health matters, female doctors/male doctors are trivial matters. You should worry more about their competency rather than their gender!

thanks!

bjcole: @ dare2think, i dont ve problem seeing a female doctor, but i cant remember going to one to inspect my private part or help shave d hair, or check if i my balls are still present, I dont why we cant compare things appropriately. Anyway thks 4 contributing

does sickness know the doctor's gender?

well, seun's gigabytes arent yours but you're still using stealing them anyway.

would anyone like to bet the op is not an introvert.

[quote author=god_of_music]There have been rumors circulating rapidly in Nairaland and at the Public on being a MODERATOR.

They say before one can be a MOD he/her must:
1.He/her must always be careful and decent with words.
2.He/her must be fair
3.He/her must be over 2years on Nairaland
4.And most importantly He/her must create a topic that gains alot of Views and over 70000 comments with pages hitting on above 1000 pages.

This is serious and we are curious.
Is it true??[/quote]none of it is true.

@ topic

panshing the baby mama, no doubt.

super story.

this is called baby mama drama.

when the thing dey sweet you, you werent planning for this no doubt.

of course, regardless what you "work out", the boy remains at the receiving end of the drama, after all is said and done, you, your baby mama/s and whichever woman/women you end up with, will sort yourselves out, not so for the products of una romps.

^your analogy is reminiscent of "omode meta nsere".

still a very ambiguous song whichever way its viewed.

Is he the one who was estranged from his father?

Hope they made up before his death.

Jesus Christ, this is someone's future wife.


Anyway, she's perfect for somebody, no doubt.

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]I think she was respecting his right to be funky but we do have the right to breathe clean and fresh air.[/quote]So you had no other access to clean and fresh air save in his vicinity.

You have the hots for the guy perhaps?

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]There were more words I could have used but I was less detailed as possible so he doesn't take offense.

Imagine a line of people tugging you left and right complaining about a strong odor. I waited a moment hoping I didn't have to be the bad messenger and my hubby was tending to the children playing soccer.

I tried to encourage people to ignore and it didn't work.[/quote]Explain how this still concerns nl members, since you say you already told the guy.

Rawdeal: Maybe you should get tired of posting crap too. If someone needs to know if she did something wrong, its her right and her business. Who knows who she'll meet tomorrow...

She said SHE ALREADY TOLD THE MAN AND HIS GIRLFRIEND he stinks.

What concerns nl again?

Why are you people so much into dumb threads of oh i got a whiff of stinkiness yesterday, i saw or heard somebody took a crap the day before yesterday, my aunty's mama bought crayfish for 50 kobo two days ago, that girl wore purple underwear last week, my papa's peeper said his b.alls stink, somebody smelled them to confirm few days back.

Low IQ doesnt necessarily have to be on permanent display here?

Stop giving seun's forum a bad name, dem send una ni?

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]Keep on getting tired of reading posts that doesn't interest you and complain about it

If a chatter were talking about a moderator and even the owner...you will find something dumb to bish about.

It's not by FORCE to read every post or thread on NL...I don't think Seun gives a Bleep.

Next![/quote]You must be referring to jaybee, since you are surely not dragging shrekilt with oghogua?

You dey find sugar son for here?

As per seun, good job with the heads up, maybe mukina can reward you with a mod position if thats your goal in life.

When people tell you you have opened a d.umb thread, its best to listen.

not saying women should go around beating guys up, thank you.

just get the general idea of how to politely release a would-be suitor who is infatuated, infatuation doesnt last.

you can also introduce him to someone else, who knows, could be his missing rib.

prexios: Of course, it is wrong to deny history, it is like trying to kill a part of Yoruba history every time we rationalize or suppress this aspect of Yoruba history concerning the Igbos. the Igbos emanated from people that were settled across the eastern side of the Niger by the ancient Yoruba ancestors. Avoiding this aspect of history portend more danger than making it manifest. It is better told than hold.

Nobody needs to agree with it, but information like this are for record seekers, not for egocentric, online tribalism-peddlers anyway. Albeit, people have their way of interpretation - to the extent of their limits.

i think yoruba has some clearly defined limits, or boundaries so to speak, when it comes to certain matters.

ie there's almost always an antithesis for every context, group or word.

for example, beeni beeko, sort of similar to yin and yang, opposing dualities.

same principle applies to twins- that's why the yorubas say the first to come out, is the youngest of the two, and vice versa.

imo, igbo falls into this opposing duality, there's a boundary underlying the two which is not necessarily meant to be crossed save for occasional intermarriage and suchlike. This boundary is also observed by the other side in question.

its actually quite strange there doesnt seem to be a similar boundary with hausa (to the same extent and only seems to be pronounced mostly when it comes to marriage), this might be due to the effect of Islam perhaps, not sure. Or the pre-jihadic period maybe. Never mind the intermittent skirmishes between traders sometimes, and barring the boko haram menace in the north.

prexios: If yes, you agree that the bible sustains fact. if no, you do not agree, if undecided, then you are biased. I am not biased in anyway, and i have my reasons, Others do as well. I believe if you have a point, it should be verifiable, and wee can see if it's really true.If not, it will come out by itself that maybe that person does not know what he or she is really saying.

We all have one common denominator here, we have honour and respect for ile ife, but we are not hold back by that, maybe you are really from ile ife, i am not from ife, i am from Ado, and in my oriki, we were said to have come from Orun, i am not a kid, i do not buy to any notion that orun has suddenly become ile ife.

Aye loja Orun nile,
Adia fun OLodumare baba 'taye matu.
Aye loja orun nile eyin ero.
Beedele Aye beegbagbe orun.
E o jiyin eo jabo oun ti eri.

That,s what we are doing here, where is Orun? I am looking for my roots. You know your root already, but my own root is Orun, where the Yoruba were said to have come from. Can you see the difference? Except it was from ife (if there is any proof to that) that people migrated to Orun. If also we can claim that we are the source of humanity, it also mean others can lay claim to the same too.

I envy the fact that you came from Ile ife, really. But my ancestors came from Orun, an unknown place literally and i believe there is a place for "Ara orun kii-kin" in Yoruba lexicon about their ancestry, it is not "ara ife kikin." So looking to a book with people who are known world over with the obsession with Olodumare or Olorun, i may not really be making any mistake, nor do i expect the Yoruba language to be that people's language. Its been a long, long time.

Me and my colleagues here are wired differently, we do not go against our tradition, we know there is Itan and we know there are aroba, we know that this difference exist and we know we have plenty aroba, we are just trying to sift Itan from Aroba. We dont seems to care to be right or wrong anyway, so you may be right. we are like homing pigeon, that's why we are looking out.

what is your definition of orun in yoruba mythology.

do you think its a physical location or an invisible one.

prexios: if we do not reach conclusion, then there should be a way to profit from what we do here, financial wise. We spend and put good resources at public disposal, something that could go for someones post degree thesis, given out without a dime to compensate the effort. It mean something brother. I will eventually come to a halt at some point.

I share your sentiment as to the Yoruba culture being a melting point of several near east cultures, but i really believe that the Yoruba were monolithic people. They might have absorbed other cultures but, the Yoruba had always pride themselves as "Omo Anibi Niran", that is "scions of those that have a particular place and a particular race."

The Yoruba have primordial link with the ancient Ashanti or Ghana. Given a careful look, the word Ghana may be an estention of igana. The link is built around Obiri Yeboa. Do some research in this respect.

i think its very interesting some schools of thought say christopher columbus sailed along the west african coast to ghana, before he set sail to the americas.

[quote author=El fenómeno]I am Yoruba from the oil producing region of Ondo State, just wanna ask if you understand the meaning of 'Delta' this time around not the Greek alphabet. Try get that, then put Niger before the Delta and check a Nigerian map. The fact remains, all states of the SS are part of the Niger Delta so the term has now become synonymous with them. Italy, France, Greece are European countries and also part of the Mediterranean belt, will you say Libya, Tunisia, Morocco are also not part of it just because they're Arabs?[/quote]technically, the niger delta covers only the regions where the river niger empties into the ocean.

any other context is a result of the oil embroglio and politics aka money.

ondo coastline is from inland rivers (not niger) and the atlantic ocean.

see what they're being told by their mentors:

eyah, that's terrible.

@ topic.

oh well, they should just continue with the previous places they were in before, in other parts of nigeria.

the incident is over, why bring it to nl, are the guy and his girlfriend here?

i seriously get tired with reading about every minute detail of what transpired somewhere, on nl.

very dumbing if you ask me, especially when its 24/7.

sometimes, its ok to let bygones be bygones.

so, he's saying she has his name tattooed on her butt?

lord have mercy, if true.
