Please Stop "flashing" Us by sosisi(f): 10:27pm On May 17, 2009 |
I'm sure I speak for all the "diaspora folks" as I humbly plead with friends and relatives in Nigeria to please stop flashing us. ![]() For those of you who don't know what the term flashing means, let me explain it. It's a situation where someone calls another on the phone and lets the phone ring once or twice then hangs up expecting you to call them back. It is extremely annoying IMHO. If you have something to say buy enough credit and say it. Do you folks know how irritating it is to be woken up early in the morning by a phone call or worse still disturbed as you're getting into a romantic mood only for the stupid phone to stop after the second ring and repeat 20 mins later. Stop flashing us, [size=24pt]I say make una stop the flashing [/size] If you're expecting anything from a relative, flashing will make them change their minds. This is a friendly piece of advice. ![]() |

Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by OgidiBoy(m): 2:47am On May 19, 2009 |
Nne osisi you absolutely right, and the most annoying thing is that it's now cheaper to call from Nigerian than it is for us to call Nigeria. Nigerians are so selfish. ![]() |
Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by sosisi(f): 3:27am On May 19, 2009 |

Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by eddy1977(m): 8:00am On May 19, 2009 |
blacksta: dream on brother. if u ve never been abroad, your mind will always think about butt wiping and diaper changing, and toilet washing. you sound like you have been deported once or denied the opportunity to join us. all the dirty jobs that you mentioned are just simple ways people use to get their feet off the ground and penetrate society. can i have you contacts because i would like employ you once i return home to wipe my butt? dont worry i will pay you very well. |
Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by blacksta(m): 9:14am On May 19, 2009 |
eddy1977: Yoru are the dreamer . cAN u imagine " opportunity to join us" what a joke sorry mate i would not like to Join the Broke and busted organisation abroad. for your information i live in the U.k and Nigeria and would happy when you come back to send a two car escort to pick up your broke self from the airport . Send me your email or flight details . All these people think Nigerians are not also interested developing themselves . How many of you abroad can buy a brand new car ( Merc, Lexus and not ford escort) outright or put down N40 Mil for a piece of land. Dear friend i am running a hauluage company in lagos my turnover is 2.5 Mill Net every month " Can you match that. Nigerians are doing wonderful things and please come home when you have managed to complete your 80 hour shift. make i spoil u You know the saying - bird of the same feather flock together ( My friends or parents dont flash me when i am abroad , they call and we talk for hours) so if they flash you it means you are broke and surrounded by broke people. Please come home - My company is looking for a 7.5 ton truck driver No hard feelings bro and i am serious about the 2 car escort - and you wont even go thru immigration. ![]() |
Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by eddy1977(m): 9:39am On May 19, 2009 |
blacksta: that was good spanking you gave me ![]() ![]() for your record, working in a nursing home while preparing for a career in healthcare is very wise. countless wise men and women have supported their families and paid their tuition while wiping old folks's butts. dont betray your lack of formal education by emptying your filfthy guts on me. ![]() i hope i have helped you . with compassion ![]() |
Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by blacksta(m): 10:08am On May 19, 2009 |
eddy1977: I am wasnt in any way bragging out being rich - with my small change - God forbid - I am just upset when Nigerians who have had the opportunity to better themselves abroad look down on people back home - Which is very typical . So what if somebody flashes you - just ignore the call. simple. I am also not in way having a dig at somebody working at any of the places i mentioned . My attack was against the person who now thinks he or she is big boy because they are earning foreign currency. myself also worked in warehouse in England but i knew where i was going" My point was " Nigerians back home inspite of the hardship are making the best out of the situation" The risk are very high which equally makes the return high as well. Sole intention of the original poster " was to compare and contrast" . p.s while wiping your ass and i would also make sure i put hot steel thru it. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by eddy1977(m): 10:33am On May 19, 2009 |
blacksta: but my broda, you worked in a warehouse in london and paved your way up untill you saw the sunshine. i think that's a good example you can use to stimulate our people to work hard and pave their way into higher education and rebuild our land. people like you have what it takes to help others succeed but you dont want to share. as far as flashing, i have always been mad at it because i dont know what kind of news they want to tell me; may be funeral or medical emergency. so by leaving me hanging, i get restless. but usualy when i call back its not an emergency at all, its always secondary issues like : buy me a new pair of shoes; or i have seen a girl, send me your bride price contribution. if our folks would change this pattern, i will stop complaining. peace |
Re: Please Stop "flashing" Us by oderemo(m): 2:27pm On May 19, 2009 |

Do you folks know how irritating it is to be woken up early in the morning by a phone call or worse still disturbed as you're getting into a romantic mood only for the stupid phone to stop after the second ring and repeat 20 mins later. The highlighted part is so funny. LMAO ![]() ![]() ![]() |
