FamilyRe: How Can My Wife Stop Shouting When Getting Kids Ready For School? Man Seeks Help by yongg: 1:00pm On Jul 26, 2025
If the parent work together they can make it work.

Fathers work well especially when it comes to compliance and enforcement of home policies.


However, in reality some wives discount methods of their significant other as being too weak, inferior or downright turn it down for trivial reasons, outside of child abuse, excessive brutality and inordinate punishment.
PoliticsRe: You Are An Ozuor If You Insulted Okpebholo For His Speech About Obi - Ilukholor by yongg: 7:25am On Jul 24, 2025
It is that preparation gan-gan that Peter Obi does not want. So that you guys will not have an excuse to spend state funds unnecessarily to pursue irrelevant issues.

You make it sound like the governor was talking about preparation when his context was about Peter Obi spend 15 million on citizens in his state, wondering where he go it from and appending an incident separate from the social figure, also that happened after he had left... And yet struggle to provide proof of this while also hide the reporting of said incident which gives it the vibe of a cookup.

AngelahFlo:
I wanted to support your claim but on second thought I don't agree. I think his body has been programmed to having a bath a day that if he misses, his brain fires a.message to his body, prompting him to run a temperature such that he needs to cool it down with a dip. In my case if I don't clean my tongue after brushing my teeth. I feel an incompleteness in my being until I've done the required routine. His case is a routine induced Adaptation gone overboard.
In other words, OCD, right?
SportsRe: China Launches First Humanoid Robot Soccer League In Beijing by yongg: 9:18pm On Jul 02, 2025
Bittersweetnig:
did you watch the video at all? It's total nonsense
Those robots performed beautifully given today's standard, planet wide. If it were that easy perhaps other countries would have held a similar competition to outperform and demonstrate their recoverable units within the time duration they were offline or failed after tripping or being fouled.

You think they don't know that their movement is far from fluid as humans' are? That right there is an immersive platform to cultivate interest in a budding sport.

It's is no brainer that robotic motion will get more fluid because they'd have places like these to test it.
SportsRe: China Launches First Humanoid Robot Soccer League In Beijing by yongg: 9:11pm On Jul 02, 2025
It may not make sense to most of the commenters before me however just from this they have created a platform to test improvements.

Most advanced things start with a simpler version. It provides a threshold to measure performance and new features against.

Do like a creator of stuff would, that mentality.
PoliticsRe: Tinubu's Scholarships: Peter Obi Is Clueless About Foreign Policy - Omokri by yongg: 3:47pm On Jul 02, 2025
Dymaco:
People in your country is given loan while outsiders are given scholarship
Sometimes, I feel they don't understand the meaning of things....

Maybe if they are told in layman terms, what this means is that Nigerians have been asked to pay more money to the current government through more tax reach and levies and loans (which the receivers are still going to pay back, I think they forget they will have to pay it back later, perhaps it's because they feel they won't need to pay it back) just so that the Caribbean countries specified can enjoy free education.

…Alongside with the funds he sought from other countries such as France, US, China etc... describing how the average Nigerian could not afford food.

The question is what is the catch, what does this hope to achieve. Maybe if it is worth it, then it can be given a pass but when you charge your citizens lacking and under huge economic pressure to pay more for education they were barely affording only to provide free education to another country is mind-boggling.

What happened to "charity begins at home", huh?
HealthRe: Pimples Won’t Let Me Rest – What Actually Works? by yongg:
Kobojunkie:
A non-prescribed and non-researched idea that worked for you will likely not work for others. Why? Because chances are, what in fact worked in your case may not even be what you presumed it did. 🙄

2. Watch the following videos about what causes acne, and tell me how you concluded that food can cause acne. undecided

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDBzqZp7slM?si=uyolW-tjo33xN6EP
This just goes to show that even you do not understand the video you prescribed, which is by the way is lacking especially in parametric considerations you accused mine of (which will also be what yours would suffer from if you gave it) in what I had earlier stated for handling acne.


At first I thought you were joking, thinking maybe because you wanted advices for the OP to lean towards more specialist remedies, however it seems you are oblivious of the fact that diet which is part of the supply chain for the largest part by volume of acne (which is the oil referenced) is a major contributor... ...and that the external treatment is geared towards reducing oil buildup (or drain the oil buildup so that supply depletes faster), or bacterial buildup or combination of both which you video also validates.

You fall my hand Kb, no big deal sha, we learn everyday.


If you noticed, those procedures aimed to provide solution from the point of
- diet (or diet process, or nutrition) control

...and

- bacterial control via skin maintenance

The other one which is hormonal control is left for good reason, simply because it is usually dicey to mess with hormones because more often than not, other body processes (some more important than the acne one is wishing to solve) are dependent on it.

Going back to me standing aside for dermatological answer because obviously these are based level things one can do to handle acne. Else, aren't you just to asking the OP to seek professional guidance ?

Granted there are more things I could have specified like my preference for fruit and veggies since one is basically using food as acne therapy...

Also, disclaimer: I am clearly not a dermatologist so I would gladly stand aside for any one more qualified than moi.

HealthRe: Pimples Won’t Let Me Rest – What Actually Works? by yongg:
You can attend to this internally and externally.


Internally: has to do with what you take in, injest whether drugs or food.

1. De-worm your self (once in 3 months). Choose which one works well for you, fruits and juicing fast or herbal solution (e.g. aloe, bitter leaf, etc custom mixes) or use pharmaceutical drugs like 'combatrin' or the likes

2. Cleanse or purge your gut (once in like a month, you shouldn't do to frequently): similarly choose which one works well for you. Either Juice fast using fruits, or herbal mix or pharmaceutical solution (medicine). If you can help it let the purge or cleanse go on for 2 days, during this time it is very important you drink salt and sugar solution to replace the fluid and electrolytes your are losing from your body while purging if not person fit kpai o. Lucozade boost is an alternative, fruits also work wonders. And drink plenty water.

3. Maintenance: Reduce how you consume oily or fried foods. If you consume a lot at once, starve yourself of oily foods and make sure the body makes use of that excess fat.

4. Maintenance 2: You have to empty your bowels regularly at least once everyday. When you don't visit the loo to do number 2, you will accumulate the excess oil it is trying to expel. To help with bowel movements you need to drink water enough and fruit and fibrous nutrition in moderation, do not overdo. For example, if you are using fruits, you can use cucumber, eat cucumber first, then now eat the main food you want to eat, then you can top it with cucumber again, drink water. (Maybe during war is it ok not to do number 2 everyday at least once, imo... )


External:
1. Get a handkerchief to clean your oily face, periodically after washing your face every 3-8 hours. When the handkerchief starts becoming oily or sticky wash it with soap right there where you wash your face. After cleaning your face, do not leave it dry, leave some water on it so that it is damp not wet and dripping o just clean it and leave it damp, else you could dry out your skin and you don't want that, do you (especially in an AC environment)

2. When you bath wash your face only entirely with soap 3 out of 4 days. Scrub your face 1 out of 4 days making sure the soap catch the sponge well and your sponge is sterile or pre-rinsed.

WizardOfNG:
Can you listen to yourself? Resurrect Abacha and hang him then. Miscarriage of justice in the past can only be addressed by acts of exoneration and reparation in future by those not connected with the events.

Your talk is oxymoronic because if you punish or harm a man wrongly and then die, you cannot come back to regret or undo your action.

It is those who have outlived you that can do the right thing and make that can applogize to that man through acts of exonerating him.publicly.

Even a bright kid of ten can tell you this is no act of forgiveness. It is admission that wrong was done to to Ogoni nine who were not guilty of a crime. The honour bestowed on them is then the act of reparation on behalf of Nigeria. Simple.
Easy tiger! we are saying the same, how could you not have seen that perspective in what I wrote though?

I do not see forgiveness and exoneration as the same. This is where exoneration applies not forgiveness.

I will advise the FG to train them in other skills.

As an authority in fx trading I can say with my full chest that it is not something you can just train people about.

It takes years of mastering and emotional discipline to have a headway.

Its better you buy keke napep for each one of them.

I'm a strong authority in fx trading and I even developed EAs that trade for me.

Except they just want to waste money they should please forget this project.

Don't get me wrong.

Fx trading is a genuine business but only very few who have mastered their emotions are making money and they are not even up to 4%
They don't know it is one of the hardest profession to participate in. Only psychology is the biggest obstacle to be conquered among others like internet, power etc.

Maybe it will reform their psychology to make them think better about life in general, about who to vote, why dirt should be disposed properly, why pricing of real estate requires regulation in order not to cause an artificial bubble.


If they don't regulate their training well, tears loading....

and the tears are necessary before a trader that will become profitable understands the importance of risk management.
PoliticsRe: FG To Train 100,000 Youths Annually In Forex Trading by yongg: 10:42pm On Jun 10, 2025
Forex is profitable but it is a rite of passage to feel the pain of loss and how strong the psychology that makes that happen materializes in the individual learning.


Youths never learn engineering and manufacturing finish, you guys now want to take up a probabilistic system that requires a different mindset to master. With failure rates in the 90%s.

If they can pull it off, fine and good. But can they? when the easier task of seamless engineering, manufacturing, agriculture and security is undone?
PoliticsRe: Nigeria To Spend N393 Billion On 1,477 Street Lights In 2025 Budget by yongg:
Wow,


So each street light is as expensive as a luxury house, real estate building.

That's around $150,000 one can use to almost get a house in the US.

What a rich country to be spending so much for a street light. I hope arrangement for facility management, maintenance, repairs, theft and vandalization prevention of the infrastructure has been covered for say 6 years.

We didn't borrow for this, did we?


Maybe the fund allocated for it is designed to sustain the presence of that streetlight indefinitely because it would be a shame for that amount of expense for so little value.

Are you projecting a higher value?

Personally I think the 800bn may have been inflated but I can't prove it although I know for a fact that all the raw materials needed for road construction we have it naturally occurring in sufficient quantities. Coal tar, bitumen, asphalt, laterite, crushed rocks and limestone.


I would like to believe calculations are objective, totally removed from the behaviour of the Nigerian government towards management of funds. Just an estimation except they have a way to differentiate when fuel is sold is for anything other than road use.

What's your take?

By my calculations, I'm projecting an inflow of N903 billion based on this move.

NGN 0.903 trn can be self sustaining if well managed. When you take away the NGN 800 bn require expense, the rest can go into other developmental things like better, streamlined system of planning, expansion, upgrades and multi-mode connectivity and indigenous research and development, standardization and implementation, and of course welfare.

Yes, they investigate too.

There's also a corp for intelligence gathering, Signals and Military Police. If they know what they are doing, no terror survives when only one of these 3 distinct corps and services is functioning properly. Just one o. Just one.

RomanceRe: "Go And Marry" As A Yardstick For Failure by yongg:
Banbanna:
So you really told them that? You get mouth o. That's flippant mehn!
grin grin.
Lols, there's nothing more flippant than for them to assume another sovereign human should just go marry as if it were a one-party operation, that the other person will always agree or that their 'agreement' or 'consent' were inconsequential (imagine how preposterous when it's coming from a woman, what an irony! walking contradictions!), not considering if both parties are compatible. They are basically assuming I cannot recognize what I want in a partner, they even assume all partnership is the same with the popularized traditional roles. The amount of flippancy embedded in that statement especially when they say it so disrespectfully is just inexhaustible.

Imagine that when they say it, So one should just 'kidnap' a partner (they have not even considered the affinity type), will they be willing to handle all requests and blames from that operation because apparently one should get married because of their busy-body, they should draw up the timelines, copulation, handle resulting financial problems, and so on. Isn't that ridiculous? There's so much to say about the ridiculousness it has to be witnessed when it's being said to them pressure for pressure.

Infact let's assume that they really believe their logic, then they should actually consider dieing sooner, really, because if they so wish to be so hasty in cycling out, after a certain age, marriage, then death, then they are also missing out on a step. They miss a step when they marry and yet to have one more child. They miss a step when they fail to die after having the amount of offsprings they want, then again, eff what they want because they didn't consider mine before suggesting marriage. Hence, to die sonner should be their recommendation, mirroring their logic.

Can you imagine a grown human being throwing away personal planning towards lifelong or short term adult partnership to please a total outsider (or even an unaware familiar) oblivious of all parameters about his/her person, completely aware that they will bear no responsibility for any or all incompatibility, conflict and critical situations which will make or mar one for life in the partnership they so hurriedly want to force into reality.

Brah, there's therefore no difference between a gambler relying on sheer luck and no planning and these guys who flippantly harass unmarried adults when they say this.
