emperorz:
you don chang yur post nice 1 baba lev am lyk dat

Change which post? You quoted all my posts here, so you have them locked in your own posts. Which one was changed? Or how has what I've been saying changed? Go back and read my first post:

Lmao... you see how you attacked her for suggesting women shouldn't settle for single fathers without realizing she was only shedding light on the stigmatization faced by single mothers. Love can be found anywhere really.

I clearly said her posts sheds light on the stigmatization faced by single mothers, and that love can be found anywhere. Which part of this has changed? Where did I say it was the man's fault or that the lady you quoted was referring to single mothers? The problem is that you people are so emotional, rough and aggressive that you read everything with the sole intention of fighting rather than understanding what you're reading. Now, after running around and realizing how off tangent you were, you're wriggling out with "you changed your post". Not like I was expecting anything tangible, I just wanted to satisfy my curiosity about what could possibly be your thought process. You can now go back to your chit-chats.

Bluntguy:
13 only? Why not 47? Is he celebrating his 13th birthday?

Too many questions. Wetin I know sef?

Isn't likely those cakes were gifted to him?

Lol... Can y'all just stop behaving like village people already? Let people be. Let people live thier lives how it fits them. Someone called her a rotten fruit above. I wonder the kind of homes some of y'all come from. You feel comfortable insulting someone you're not fighting with. What's the thought process behind that? She was called out for not having a husband. Now she has one, and she's still not spared. Wow... Nigerian women, y'all are really trying.

emperorz:
you are off point she was never referring to anything abt single mothers read again barrister

Wow... Is it that you don’t really understand or you're just trolling? Did I say she was referring to single mothers? I said her biased comment about single fathers reflects the kind of stigmatization single mothers face.

You say "how many years old than you am I?" (and all its variants).

You can also say "what is our age difference?" (and its variants too).

Though interchangeable, they are not exactly the same. The first suggests you're sure you're older but want to know how much older you really are. The second doesn't emphasize who's older.

My understanding of pidgin is poor, so forgive me if I went off on a tangent.

@OP, the article "a" in your title shouldn't be there.

MZrapper:

What's "long cappings"?

It's actually meaningless, bro. Lol.

emperorz:
in what way oo b4 una start to dey type rubbish just to look cool ..... She is a divorcee both of them are previously married....aw is it his fault? You are off point always looking for a simPson nonsense you said i attacked her without even reading wah i said ? Observe which means no be today she don dey bad mouth men on this platform so b4 yu come up to me and say gibberish pls do read the words well

I never suggested it was his fault (and we don't know this for sure). I only said such stigmatization (such as the one expressed by the person you quoted) is what single mothers face everywhere. And I went ahead to point out that it's not ideal cause single parent or not, love can be found anywhere. Did you even read my comment or are you just out to draw blood? And what do you think an attack is? You violently opposed her by suggesting you'd slap her if you knew her personally, and this wasn't an attack? I don't know the person you quoted and I don't care about her comments on NL. We were only chatting within the context of this thread and as I said, she just showed us how unnecessary it is to stigmatize single parents.

Ibrahimmrfish:

Your pipeline is still under construction.

Oh... I see.

What of Nigeria?

emperorz:
see d way way yu just dey tok anyaw ehn if i sabi yu personally i for don rest yur head wit one correct slap atleast yu go come bck to factory setting den den buy yu coldstone afterwards

Lmao... you see how you attacked her for suggesting women shouldn't settle for single fathers without realizing she was only shedding light on the stigmatization faced by single mothers. Love can be found anywhere really.

drmuchin:
Oga Madam in action. Give a woman power this is what you get.

Marriages end everyday with the woman leaving the house. So it's not like giving the man power has proven to be any better. Their marriage just hit a block just like many others. Someone had to leave and giving how Nigerian marriage laws are messed up, it's always the rich partner kicking out the other.

Death*

Dorwadora:
On the contrary, I have time to invest in my pests... I'm a student. I just gats this love for cats, it's natural. The way they ignore me elegantly always make me laugh. There sleek body and their whining meows ....

I was once called a witch by Ikillbrokebitch because I said I own a black cat .

But dogs, I'm new to them, I don't know anything about them and they are not as intelligent as cats. My dog Daisy is still not answering her name tho she reacts to noise and signs.

I've been advised not to own a cat after the previous one were poisoned to avoid people's superstitious opinion. I would have just gotten another set after my mourning month . And yes I always follow her in after opening the door then pick her up to help her urinate in her sand bowl... I'm not giving her out .... She's a cute soul.

Lmao.

I like cats too, but from all indication, I feel you just don't how to raise dogs. You're so in tune with cats that you're attempting to raise a dog as a cat. First, unlike cats, some dog breeds don't like doing thier business on sand and even those that do wouldn't instinctively start doing it in litter-boxes like cats do. It all stems from the natural adaptations of each animal. Cats are small and require less amount of exercise. They can just run around the house and be OK, so doing thier business in a litter-box is fine. On the other hand, dogs need to take a long walk daily. The owner wouldn't be obliged to take the dog out if they were naturally adapted to use litter-boxes like cats. That said, litter-boxes are OK for small breeds of dogs and larger breeds can also be trained to use them provided you don't forget to walk them daily nevertheless. The keyword is "train". Again, pay attention to what the dog likes. Intelligent animals have the brain capacity to have distinct preferences. You might need to replace sand with fine gravel or turf.

You think cats are more intelligent because of an untrained puppy you've had for a few weeks? Lol... While cats have more natural instincts than dogs and even humans (enough to see them through life without formally learning things) they aren't really more intelligent than dogs if you view it in terms of acquired knowledge (where dogs are similar to humans). Cats just don't learn as fast as dogs and can't learn nearly as much also (and as I said, they don't even need to). Dog's learning is also more progressive. Thier superior brain capacity makes them more reliable in the long run. Since you're bent on keeping the dog, you must begin to learn how to love and take care of it's physical and mental needs as a dog. You also need to stop comparing the cute little thing to cats cause it's just not a cat.

Daisy is a nice name.

Lol... I believe those ancient gods called cats are for people who like animals but maybe not well enough to invest in them or just don't have the time to. They're so independent and yet very entertaining. Dogs, on the other hand, are little babies that always require your attention and validation regardless of thier age.

My love for animals would probably not let me see anything wrong with your dog. But that aside, it appears you have a highly trainable one. The fact that it can hold its pee till it locates a convenient location is already a plus. Intelligent animals with a lot of personality are always a handful but with the right handling, could be very rewarding. When it comes to training animals, positive reinforcement never fails. It's a good thing you've learned the dog's pattern/body language. Use that to your advantage. Pay attention to know when it's about to pee, take it outside and stay with it till it does that. Then offer it some treat, praise and play with it. Do this for some time, and you'd be amazed how fast he'd learn.

I have a lot of pets including two different species of parrots, and I can tell you dogs are the easiest to train simply because of thier desire to impress us. But then again, if you realise you just can't handle the puppy, please give to someone who can for the sake of you both.

I don't understand some people's thought process, really. Why would anyone do this?

Where is the criticism?

OP, your titles are always off-putting. When you combine unrelated topics this way, people lose interest cause it becomes obvious you're just throwing to see what sticks. Just a tip.

If this is true, if this is really that sexist guy, then it's really a sad situation.

Dude, are you getting the help you need? Are the people around you supportive? I learned you're having issues with your mum. Do you at least have someone you talk to without judgement? You surely need to take a break from NL but I do hope that's not some kind of withdrawal from reality. We would rather have you here cursing everything female than have you hurt yourself.

For those who know the OP personally, this is the time to get closer to him. I've seen people battle with mental health issues and it's just heart breaking. People don't usually understand them cause they seem to be functional in many aspects of life like education, business, etc. but deep down, they're not okay and can't help themselves. Self harm is the red zone and OP seems to be there already.

I sincerely wish him well.

Well, they have the right to contest. It's up to the voters to decide the outcome.

thorpido:
Please don't get my comment wrong.It is not about a gender thing.I'm not gender biased.

I only chose to address the other woman in this case because of the peculiar situation. She went to a groom's wedding to sleep with the groom! I would not even have bothered with the other lady if he had gone to meet her at a hotel.
I already called the groom a fool because his own case is a case of insanity.

@second bold,yes I would have addressed the strange man more if he had come to meet the bride at her wedding.

I'm careful to use 'some women' or 'you' when I address situations.I deal with each situation on its own merit.

Ignore many comments on Nairaland deriding women.Many of them are from kids.

Noted!

Sorry, I misunderstood. My bad.

This will be an interesting court case in Nigeria

thorpido:
Even if the man is a cool,what if the lady he was having sex with,she no get common sense to at least free the man?
Anyway she could see it as a revenge for the man not marrying her.

Sir, let's not make this one about the woman. Let's not get so invested in the stranger's thought process that we forget the only person cheating here is the man. Tell me, would you have typed this if it were the bride who was caught cheating with a stranger? Would you let the bride off the hook to concentrate on the stranger who couldn't care less about the marriage? The fact is, if the lady in question was single, then she wasn't answerable to anyone. While she was wrong to have slept with the groom, the moral obligation was on the man to respect his relationship.

A fellow man messed up, let's accept it and criticize him. This attempt to blame women for everything while treating men with kid gloves is embarrassing. You'd end up presenting men as brainless entities that just go in any direction they're pulled. Just saying.

_{Meanwhile, I've noticed how we carefully say "some men" whenever we want to to criticise men on this platform. That's not bad. We only need to extend that courtesy to women as well instead of using expression like "that gender", "fear women", "Nigerian girls", etc.}

You got moves, bro. Nice try.

illicit:


He should have included the said sounds

He said sounds not the sounds you know

Actually, you're the one who didn't read him correctly, sir. Notice that he said "this combination of sounds... ". The word "this" implies he was specifically referring to the combination in question and not just combination of sounds in general.

illicit:
In which language is combination of sounds not allowed

Lol... you clearly didn't understood that part. He said the combination of the sounds /p/ and /s/ are allowed in the beginning of a word in Greek unlike in English. Notice he said "this combination of sounds". The word "this" implies he was specifically referring to the combination in question and not just combination of sounds in general.

nairaman66:


If you read correctly. This diplomatic post of yours would have been addressed to him. He was the one who fired shots at me when he quoted, I only dropped an opinion. You seem to be biased somewhat with your points.

He was the one who disagreed with me and went further to call me unfounded names! My conclusion is most atheists do not have any sense of acceptance of a different opinion!

Ok. Maybe I didn't read correctly then. No offense.

nairaman66:


These questions are too subtle to address the argument of evolution. Come up with something concrete, you can do better!

The problem is not that you disagreed with the guy. Science encourages us to disagree if we see reasons to. That's a natural way of refining the final output. Again, the point is not that the guy could not be wrong. In science, being wrong in a new way is considered progress (just like a change of error message is considered progress in IT). Most times, the one time you're right out of a 100 trials makes the difference.

The issue is the way you disagreed with him. You guys bring unnecessary emotions to this platform and that makes it difficult for you to have civil conversations and effectively pass your message across. You called his work trash instead of contributing your take on the subject. You insulted his education and thereby making yourself the omniscient/infallible one. Now, he's stepping up to defend his education and you're saying his questions are subtle. Do tell, what is subtle about his questions? You've obviously seen he's an authority of some kind on the subject and you're struggling to wriggle out of the fallacious argument you started. Unfortunately, that has proven difficult cause of your approach and everyone can see through it.

Let's learn to treat one another with some respect here even when we clearly do not agree. No need to always be aggressive, loud or hostile.

Looks great. Can one prepare this with spinach?

Hhmm.... Before you ask others thier view on the issue, I suggest you first ask them if thier own friends and relatives behave that way. I said so cause I personally believe the reverse is the case. Those in Nigeria tend to think the ones abroad have made it in life until they move abroad themselves only to realize after a week that the struggles are pretty much the same everywhere.

If you belong to a circle of friends who constantly want to show others how they're better off, then you shouldn't be surprised when they start rubbing it on your face that they're in a better country. On the other hand, it's also possible you're the one reading meaning into everything they say cause you're already feeling inferior without knowing it (no offense intended, it's human nature). Or maybe you're projecting your own personality on them cause if/when you travel out, you'd like to let others know you're better off. Any of these would imply you either need to change your friends or your mindset. Just saying.

It's also possible I'm just lucky not to know such people who look down on those in Nigeria. That would be funny considering how many immigration share flats, live in basement apartments and do all sorts of things just to survive. Even the educated ones would tell you the first couple of years ain't always easy for them. But it definitely gets better, trust me. In fact, seeing them as modern slaves would be overreaching cause the truth is, any legal work one is doing doesn't really matter if the compensation is worth it.

Let's hear what others have to say.

Ximenez:

Always check well.

If he's not the one farting in an interview, then he's being chased by his gay boss or talking with his friend's wife for hours if not being seduced by his boss daughter at work.

He looks for trendy controversial issues and makes himself the protagonist.

Lol... thanks for the heads-up. I just hope he's okay though.

NnamdiAzikiwe:
Nobody should apologize for supporting a particular candidate. No be him fault sey buhari mess up

So true.

But they shouldn't lie about it too.

Ximenez:
Instead of wasting your talent here.
Why not consider writing a prose for Nursery schools?
You drop an average of 2 fictions per day here.

I contributed so much to his last thread. Seeing this one now, I don't even know how to feel. Lol
