OP, you wrote "got" instead of "goat".

@first pic, does it work out?

Orubebe01:
Tell us how you got the job then I will tell you the salary scale

If he had gotten the job, would he still be asking for the salary?

Nice !

It's good the record was broken by another Nigerian.

What is "Davido snubbed"? Is he the only musician not nominated?

Lol... it's funny when people say "don't go in raw with these girls so you don't get infected with the diseases they carry about" as if girls are vectors while men are always clean. Meanwhile, the man is more likely to infect the lady during a heterosexual intercourse.

OP, I'm glad you've learned your lessons both for your sake and for that of those around you.

Happy weekend!

The heart of man.

Females in Nigeria...

Vaughanlanrewaj:
Yes. It's only the children and school staffers that take time off sir

Ok, thanks. In other words, nursery, primary and secondary schools are closed today. I believe universities aren't included, right?

jom28gy:
Where is the woman now

She's a nurse in the US.

OP, I heard she stood in for Bianca.

Lol.... the title made it seem like the owner was the helpless one.

Do people work/go to school on Children's Day in Nigeria?

Medical doctors?

You got an STD after cheating, you knew you had it and you went ahead to sleep with your girlfriend? In other words, you delibrately gave it to her? And she's still dating you? Hhmm...

Quick recovery to you guys....

Nice...

Let her try again! Falling is nor the problem, staying down is. Meanwhile, even those who wrote JAMN exam 10 times are here mocking her. People fail these exams everyday, Kim is not an exception. If anything, this shows she's working hard on herself.

And the non vaccinated ones will live forever. Yeah!

Tell us how much you bought it. I read somewhere that grasscutters are now raised in farms in Africa. Maybe that would reduce the price.

Meanwhile, when you put a space between the "grass" and the "cutter", you're referring to the machine (lawn mower) and not the rodent.

Happy married to to them!

Hmmm... The baby girl is probably a victim of child abuse. I suggest you tell your family and y'all should inform her mum. In cases like this, everyone is a victim. If they can't catch the culprit, they should at least be able to protect the kid by keeping an eye on her and helping her get the stuff off her mind. It's sad she had to experience this side of life at such a tender age. On the bright side, her age means she's not likely to have any trauma as she'd probably forget everything including the "uncle" before next year.

I honestly hope it's just something she saw, but her utterances suggest someone might have used those words to deceive her. Saddening.

Haha... Ned's father-in-law has arrived! Congratulations to them. If they are happy together, that's all that matters. People will always talk anyway. Meanwhile, the man might be younger but he's seems old enough to be Regina's dad.

As if taking his surname wasn't enough, you had to take his lyrics too. Lol.

Good luck, Mr. Jackson.

Odiriance4all:
I wonder what the benefit of joining cultism when you still remain wretched and haggard

Power.

The desire to be supreme/powerful is just as strong as the desire to be rich. While the rich folks try to convert thier money to power, the not-so-rich ones seek out other ways of getting it.

Success is not determined by education. But this does not undermine the importance of education. Be it basic or professional level education, it keeps you prepared for opportunities. At the very minimum, education helps you fit in to this rather complex world without constituting nuisance to others.

Lol... I saw connection, self-care and gratitude.

AntiWailer:
Leave her and watch.

When it is open, it won't be easy to change it to anything.

Once she keeps that relationship secret and away from you, then anything can happen in the secret and in the dark.

With time, she will outgrow him once that one faces his life squarely.

I love the idea of leaving them and allowing them keep it public. If they didn't do anything all this while before she got married, it's not likely the will now. Trying to force them apart might lead to the friendship becoming a secret affair. Besides, I don't think it's fair to cut your spouse off her longtime friend with whom she's had a lot of experiences. Friends bring out the sparks in us. If she loses such friends, she might go dull and even the OP wouldn't like that. If she's not giving OP enough attention or not doing whatever OP believes she's a supposed to do as a wife, his concerns would be more appreciated.

Regarding your last statement, do you really think she'll outgrow a longtime friend who still lives in the same city as herself? I think things will change when the guys also get a lady of his own. That way, the OP and that lady will join forces wreck the friendship

Fox... not surprised, it's thier turn to play the opposition. Lol.

Afromentalist:
Why should my own contribution derive its conclusion from your own premise? you have stated your premise and drawn your conclusion as a result. I have a different and equally possible assumption, whence I drew my own conclusion from.

As usual, you write this then you will later turn and form self-righteous that does not "engage in petty talks".

In any case mr Governor of Quebec, you are the one that did not really read correctly. You even admitted you confused monikers, and were arguing since without knowing you are talking with a different individual. All in a bid to assert yourself as a Canadian with exclusive rights to Quebec.

In your Manichean binary reasoning, you think it is always about proving you right or wrong. Mr Governor, I have good news for you: it is not about you at all.

You made a statement under an assumption. I came to tell you, that your statement is only valid should your assumption be the only logical one. However, this is not the case. If a different axiom is possible/postulated, then one can arrive at different, equally if not more pertinent conclusions. It has nothing to do about proving you right or wrong, but everything to do with showing you "the other side".

Read yourself, I made à statement stating the sole condition under which the statement is valid. And then you quoted me to tell that my statement is only valid under the condition I stated. I that added the condition in the first place, you think I didn't know that? What value did you comment add to my logic that wasn't there already? You echoed what I said already, how is that not redundancy? You even accused me of working with an assumption.

I : if the the guy invited, he's not smart.
You: You assume he invited them.

First, I did not just assume, I clearly stated à condition. If I had just said he wasn't smart, that would have been working with an assumption (like those calling him smart). But I made à comprehensive statement of fact: if he invited them, he's not smart. This means he could still be smart in the case that the IF statement evaluates to be false. Second, you going ahead to tell me he's smart if he invited only one girl does not in way oppose or invalidate what I have already stated.

And how come you did not add to the statement of those calling him smart to tell them other conditions under which he might not be smart? Or maybe you're just okey with everyone calling him smart regardless of the condition and that is why my statement was the one worth quoting?

Others: the guy is smart!
You: .....

How objective and logical.

Afromentalist:
So according to you, a premise is only stated when the word "if" is used ?

I said "may" and "likely" are these not premises or expressions of assumption? Or I must write "if" necessarily before your brain can decode that we are dealing with a (reasonable) assumption? The fact and the matter is that, neither you nor I nor anyone knows what transpired. We all give our opinions based on (rational) assumptions from the facts provided to us.


Dude where did I ever talk about the western world to you ? Now you are lying to make a point? You brought that up yourself (perhaps with some other dude), thinking you are among villagers. I had to correct that false impression, each time I was in Montreal I always paid my bills, even when people did invite me. Moreoever, the western world can't be restricted to Canada in anyway.


Well, this monday is not open over here, So I still got the time to address your lies.

Lol... let me break it down. When I say it has no premises, I meant it did not derive its conclusion from my initial post that started the conversation cause my post gave a condition under which the statement I made would be true, so I didn't just "assum he invited them" as you stated in your post. I have updated my last comment just to break this down.

Looking at the username now, I see you jumped into the chat half-way. You accuse me of "assuming" when I made it clear in the first post the guy's act is only shameful if he actually invited the girls. You accuse me of wanting to sound superior, meanwhile the person I was responding to actually made a statement that made me mention I was in Canada. Maybe if you had read the posts that started the conversation, you would have been in a better position contribute. But it would appear you were in a hurry to let me know you've also been to Montréal.

Nevertheless, even your own argument does not hold up cause my statement still stands: if that guy invited those ladies, then what he did is not smart but shameful, and this is regardless of the location.

Afromentalist:
You start petty talks but when you meet stubborn resistance and are reciprocated, you begin to act self-righteous. Anybody can read the whole conversation and see who began to question the character of the other one. We already know your type, I have met such a few times on Nairaland: the type that because of foreign citizenship think he can lord it over the rest, thinking he has the keys to any country.


This is my first response to you on this topic:



How did I not state the assumption I was basing my opinion on? In fact I even stated your OWN assumption. Now it is very obvious you just want to act self-righteous to give yourself some form of self sense of superiority. Lmaoo


You just confirmed my doubts with this sentence. you are trying to validate yourself. You come in an open forum, and you think people quote you because you are important?

Nigga, nobody cares who you are, we are here to exchange and have fun. I quoted you without looking at your moniker, and soon we will move to the next discussion and would have forgotten each other monikers.

First you start with "I am Canadian", then "I am from Quebec", " we have Etiquette", and now "you are the one that quoted me"

You quoted me for "assuming" meanwhile, in the post you quoted, I clearly stated the condition under which what he did wouldn't be termed "smart". The IF statement simply means what the guy did is only shameful IF he had invited the ladies. Unlike those calling him smart, I did not just give an opinion based on my assumptions, I gave a condition for my statement to be true (cause there's a possibility that he did not invite them). And I did that cause none of us actually knows what happened. Even if you think the guy was smart cause he did not invite them all (which is not stated anywhere), how does that contradict a statement that says "then he is not smart if he actually invited them"? What I find interesting is that those that called him "smart" did not even state any condition. They just passed judgment based on thier assumptions and you did not call them out for assuming, but would rather call me out despite my explicit condition statement. How objective.

Within a very short period of time, you've moved from saying my statement doesn't hold in the western world (as if taking care of your invitee is a region specific thing) to accepting that not paying for one's guest is actually shameful, and then to accusing me of missing the point, and finally to accusing me of feeling superior (I like this one). Yet, I don't see how all this invalidates my statement: IF they guy invited those ladies, then he wasn't being smart but shameful. Which part of this statement don't you agree with?

But superior? Lol... I only mentioned I'm Canadian cause you said my statement doesn't hold in the western world and I needed to tell you the guest pays everywhere. I really don't care about childish inuendos, memes and emojis. Nevertheless, I'm sorry if any of my comments made you feel inferior or triggered something within. I don't hold back when I'm chatting with someone who I believe to be just as confident. But yeah, my judgment fails me occasionally.

I was actually having a boring weekend, so thanks.

MALIGNANTGuest:
Normal Experience in the United States & other countries.

Yeah, I once got a line previously used by a Chinese lady. I started getting messages as soon as installed Whatsapp (apparently, she didn't transfer her account to her new line). It wasn't funny. I was told to come and pick a new line but I eventually decided it wasn't a big deal.
