CelebritiesRe: VDM #180M LIES: Don Jazzy Unfollows Verydarkman by trium:
liveyourlife007:
How can someone call himself darkman.
Like if it were blackman that's still better.
Black is different from Dark. Dark is something evil
I disagree with you. You're not black btw, you're dark skinned and there's nothing wrong with that. More correctly, you are brown skinned or whatever color fits you. I have people in my family with a complexion that is not dark or what you call black, do I call them white? If Rita Dominic and Genevieve were from the same family, will you call them black because some people called you that? Look at your hair, if you are younger than 35, it is likely black or maybe brown.

Accepting that you are black when you clearly know what color black looks like is the biggest prank they played on your education.

FoodRe: Man Laments Over A $32 Grocery In America (is this grocery worth it? by trium: 6:06pm On Dec 31, 2024
Alakoriomo:
Man lament for buying 5 pieces of apple, eggs and tomatoes for 32$ (after taxes). Americans are enjoying but they’ll still complain why?

This food item in Nigeria will go over 200,000 naira if you were to buy it in today’s economy. But this guy complain just for $32? Why are some people ungrateful
You keep comparing apples to oranges and that does not show good education.

Compare the earning powers of both people before analysis. You don't just change the cost to Naira as you will. Enough of these sort of threads on Nairaland. That's how they compare UK wages to Naira but never talk about the cost of heating, insurance among others.

APC is not anything progressive. Buhari took us back to 84 and Tinubu took us to 1976. That's why he went back to Obasanjo's first term when he changed the national anthem. Give APC more terms and they'll take us back to pre independence. If you think I'm joking, look at the bromance with France and how the politicians are behaving. THEY want the citizens to be paupers and depend on palliatives. Nigerians are now hungry and poverty had been weaponised to enslave them. How many years did you fight before the British gave you independence? That's exactly where APC is taking us to

I laughed, you know why?
Some of Fela's children today are dinning with those that killed their father, a very popular son of his, campaigned for one of his father's oppressor in 2015, that's when I lost faith in Nigerians.

You want to die for Nigerians?.. Even your children will piss on your grave.
You are funny. Beko Ransome Kuti was a Minister of Health while the bro was fighting gov't and mom fought gov't. We can't all be same, even twins don't do same 24/7 so this example of yours no gel.

Lagos state agencies are fond of harassing businesses.That is why so many factories are moving to ogun state. How can you close them because they drilled borehole to extract ground water ? Did the government provide water for them and they refused to use it?.
This is the star comment on this thread. Make it make sense. Nigerians pay for taxes without services from government. They pay Band A and Band F for Fraud for epileptic power. I laugh when people say we don't pay taxes then they show us UK and U.S. where they pay water and light bills, good roads, health among others.

Oyo State tried this too by levying borehole drillers. I don't think Nigerians are ready for change yet. The day they push them, even the State officials will be scared.
FamilyRe: Single Mom Spoils Son With Lavish Gifts, Sparks Heated Debate Online (Photos) by trium:
Maeve7:
Too much trash. My kid keeps getting toys from different family members and barely plays with any of them or they break easily as they are cheap made in China things. Our house is full of clutter and I just think of the environmental pollution excessive consumerism causes. I will go and donate some of the stuff to an orphanage.

My child loves playing with us more than with any of these toys. Quality time is what makes children loved and smart, materialism not so much.
Do you mind sharing more about this i.e. your child and play?

What do you think parents can realistically do with kids?

Though I condemn those who give smart phones to kids, the reality of life is that adults need time or are such parents not really intentional? For instance, parents who have helps realize that the child is closer to the help than they are but they had to go out to work for money that will pay the same help! Parental instinct or neglect sets in. Is it a question of us accepting that we have to sacrifice one for the other? You can't win that time back. As a man, I always understood that value of time because it is a more important memory than what we buy that their brains haven't processed the value of money yet for lipsrsealed

Mindlog:
That is so very wrong, my postgraduate dissertation was focused on children outdoors play and children in prehistoric times played with toys made from suncaked muds, sticks, stones, clay, wood, etc.
Don't get me wrong. I like to learn so I am open to discussions. If you saw the video, they did not say remove all toys but that giving kids toys does not make them more creative. Kids love to experience and experiment with what they have. Toys today are products created for them not products they create by themselves. We are trying to feed them and they will crave more. It's like social media doomscrolling.

Today kids don't play outside like before. We are more gated and closed and because they are indoors, parents don't have their time, they are fed with toys and devices. Outside play for kids is what we adults call TRAVEL. No matter how we read on NL or watch videos of other countries, it can never be like being there.


Back to kids, you sound like a parent. Have you ever noticed that if you buy a toy for a kid, it wears out in a day or 2?

Is this studio based in a mud hut or mkhukhu or something? The audio is terrible. Was waiting for that foul-mouthed one with a hijab to speak her usual bs about SA but i guess she was locked in a Libyan airport storeroom and couldn't make it. The last show i watched had all 4 panelists talking smack about SA alongside the callers - total echo chamber, do you call this news in Nigeria? SA news is far superior, no panel discussion will ever take place without diverse views - no wonder you so toxically brainwashed about everything black South African, its spoonfed to una by discredited so-called news outlets.

Anyway, on a lighter note, Chichi really looks malnourished and lacks glow nowadays, not to mention those gigantic bags under her eyes. Baby girl needs to import some SA water and pap.

Hi, sorry to interject, but I don't believe that. I think far back, they made toys with clay or cloth or stone or hay, even then.
Hi purple25,

I want you to watch the video and let me read your thought. Tell me what you think about removing toys.

Today, mothers and even fathers are replacing toys with smartphones. I cringe when I see parents deny their kids early development by feeding them with a device

This mother is obviously financially reckless. No single learning material, just toys and shoes, most of which would be useless to the kid in some months cos kids grow fast at that stage.

Invest in your kid's future instead of spending all on useless toys just to impress people on social media.
You remind me of something wild I read today. Okay, it's not so wild. It said that the concept of toys is not as long as human civilization. Kids never played with toys until modernity thought they brought up an invention.

Growing up in Ajaokuta, Chukwuma developed a deep connection with the Igala language and culture. This bond was nurtured by his family’s Igala neighbour from Ikanekpo, who taught him the language during his formative years.
Over time, his fascination with the Igala tradition blossomed into a lifelong passion.

This man lacks courtesy and discretion in talking to people as a public servant.

After watching the Presidential chat, you can see where he gets endorsement from. His boss is comfotrable with talking down at people because of POWER. Some people confuse that with being BOLD/COURAGEOUS.

Power is dangerous unless you have humility.

Nairaland GeneralRe: To All Men Between 30-40, Name One Mistake You Have Made In Your Life . by trium:
Archtype:
Some of this introvert thing was caused by some strict parents who always want their children to stay at home, make them avoid friends to avoid being corrupted especially immediately after secondary school, some of these parents build a close monitoring around their children that even when their child finally gets permission to go out that is after questioning how your movements will be and dropping the names and necessary address and promising to come back within 2hours; so, the children now starts developing cold feets on meeting friends instead of going through the stress of convincing his parents, and somehow they develop a way of staying on their own and will rather watch BF than going anywhere.
Our old parents contribute so much to this sh*t especially if you are an obedient child that doesn't want to be like your brother who they already rebelled "rebellious and stubborn" cos he took his small freedom by force
You have a valid point about parental influence on a child being an introvert. On the other side, have you noticed that many Nigerians follow the crowd? They go with trends and they don't have a mind of their own. I am not saying being an introvert means you have sense but I think the other side of letting kids be also has its detrimental effect on you as an individual. Instead of learning from books, experiences, listening to others and all that, you experiment yourself or you learn from your peers, who don't know better. Children want to grow up fast and behave like adults but some of the things they do will cause them fatal mistakes in life. Like when you see girls gone astray, why do people always ask 'where is the father/mother'? It's because they know that the world is not as it seems but the child is in a hurry to see the deceit of outside world. Look at the kids of today learning from the internet, they are not able to think on their own, they have the stress of the outside world which is technology.
You don't realize until later on in life that you have never made decisions on your own, you always needed validation of the outside world, your friends or external to make decisions. You don't have your own convictions. YOU are not doing what you really want to do in life, you are doing what society wants. Some people only discover this in their 40s that they have not been living their own lives. Why do you think the Japanese Samurai and other disciplines focus on listening to yourself? Many of us grow up as adults then realize that we only needed 1 or 2 friends in life, not the whole class. We start to see the peace of mind having less people does. LESS people, LESS drama.


There are some points for me that I want such kids who are adults now to respond to:
1. As a parent yourself now, do you think that you now understand why your parents kept you away from the outside crowd?
2. Will you do the same thing to your kids albeit in a different way?
3. As an adult, do you think being raised that way helped your life today?


PS: this thread proves that there are adults on this forum even though most topics because of FP gets taken over by clowns and political lackeys.

Nairaland GeneralRe: To All Men Between 30-40, Name One Mistake You Have Made In Your Life . by trium: 4:01am On Dec 27, 2024
I read the thread and it's interesting seeing what men have written. I know the one that men talk about is how they wish they would have done more if they weren't married. I remember a funny post online where someone said a man brings a girl to his life and she calls her friends in to have fun. Friends here = your children.

I think marriage makes you more responsible and you start to solve problems as they come. Problems you never thought you could have solved, life throws you a curve ball.

A mistake I made was trusting people. I learned to tell people only what is necessary and I avoid gossip about others. Why? People will talk, many people don't know how to keep things confidential. What they tell me about other people may also prevent me from knowing them for who they are so I start to use other people's biases to judge them. Being into business made me understand the term, MIND YOUR BUSINESS. Do what you want, maintain your principles and move on. Don't be too much in people's business and don't let them be in yours. I applied this to family and it changed how I related with them, my life has never been easier since then.
