My colleague sucks..yes!!! Big time. She has sooooo many nasty habits I cannot even "begin to start" counting..
A) she begs-anything u chop, she must wan chop even if na kuli-kuli and she does it unashamedly. Everyone has noticed but no one wants to say anything..its horrible. She even stares at your food till you lose appetite for it. The one I hate pass, you put your drink on the table she picks it up and gulps sticking her tongue into the bottle*rme*
B) she sneezes , coughs, blows her nose, talks loudly (can't control her pitch),chews like ......
All these and so many more.
No one wants to correct her but they don't suffer as much as I do..I sit close to her and I cannot move for now..I can't even concentrate. How do I address this without coming across as rude? Thanks.
Write a short detailed story using fake names. Make sure u tell d story like it is and see her reaction. I think dt'll get to her OR bettter still be a good colleague sit her dwn and say it NICELY. She myt want to flare up bt mke her see reasns.
Hmm, i feel u. I have a male colleague that sits right beside me with the nastiest habits! He chews loudly, belches uncontrollably and worst of all makes this grunting noises like his brains are stuck in his nose...its beyond disgusting! So what i did was, when he made that sniffing sound, i asked him if he slept in the cold the previous night, when he confirmed he did, i advised him not to as he was doing more damage than good to his body. I lied to him that making those sounds will eventually block his nostrils and he will need surgery. i guess that scared him straight up.lol. It was a subtle and effective way without any bad blood.
funny enough you will be surprised to know that there are such people in almost every office you enter. but since it bothers you most,you just have to call her aside and voice it out in a concerned manner.she should know it is now a concern and irritable to your colleagues.she should try and take control because obviously it is now more of a sub-unconscious and reflex action. don't finger people out and quote whatever they said,else things will take a different turn. just let her understand your concern and hoping she doesn't see you as the black sheep since you voiced out.....take heart.
Tell your colleague to attend The Awake Program Beginner's Course on the 2nd of June, 2012. This will help her start to learn some basic manners and self control.

Buahahahahahaha. Colleague from hell. Even if you are rude, I doubt if this character you've just described will change, okay maybe for a week or two but after she's done sulking, she will resume the same bad habit.
lwkmd @ She even stares at your food till you lose appetite for it.
My dear, run , run, run very far. Face your food/work, ignore her all the time! Tune her out. It might be awkward at first but after a while she will get the message and comport herself around you.
It's simple, try to ignore her. I've met people like her and trust me, she knows what she is doing and its her nature. If it bothers you a lot, don't eat where she is.You could go to another office/the cafeteria if you have one.Put your drink bottles under your desk and have a hand sanitizer close by! lol Look at it as an opportunity to learn how to tolerate others and you'll find out how useful it'll be in the future as i have.
Hahahahha I can relate well to that. I have this colleague too, she is so loud, when she sees people talking she will stand and look at their mouths and before you say jack she starts commenting on what she doesn't know. Always ready to defend and shout for what she is not sure of.My advice is show her some love by being more friendly to her then you can politely tell her how her numerous behaviors is affecting her personality and career even though she might not know. You may be surprised at how she will improve, she knows she is like that but maybe cant help herself.
Sometimes a rude awakening is just what one needs... And in these kinda cases, ther's hardly eva any way to approach the issue without offending her... So just get it out.. It'l probably shock her to rightness!
You should call this girl over to a quiet place and gently talk some sense into her. I hate it when people keep asking for food. Makes it uncomfortable eating in front of them not to talk of putting theor mouth on my drink! Ewwww!
So yea, u need to tallk to this chic and let her know every1w is sick of her behaviour. U might be surprised to Find out she dsnt even know she's doing anything wrong
Buhaahahahh I feel u but how 2 tell her wifout making her feel bad is easy. Tell her...she deserves 2 feel bad 4 making u miserable every single day. I'm 100% sure d lady is YORUBA...cos of d dirtiness!! Yuck!! XxxxxxxxxX
I believe you're rude for writing this. Everyone has a bad habit somehow. and people who despise people for no reason will hate that kinda person. For me, i'll overlook such habits and probably warn her to stop doing those shits when shes with me. i have a friend that spits whenever hes wt me or anyone anywhere. but am kinda use to that and i always joke with him or yab him. Gerrit
"Show me ur frnd and I will tell u who u r" ever hrd of dt addage. Reading thru I didn't hear u say u two were cojoined together. So why cant u severe ur ties with her n pick another sit mate or colleauge. Because I think dt girl is possessed with wild distractive n dangerous beggi beggi spirit(pardon ma parrot english). So get out of such frndshp while u still ve ur senses intact, b4 u suddenly blow up out of frustration, which is bound to happen eventually. Cheers Miss Eno
Reminds me of a certain cave girl back in them days. Y'all gotta find what annoys her and do it till she's so sick of y'all & then let her know that's how sick she makes y'all.
Pour pee pee in a bottle and leave it on your desk.
When the omo jukokoro touches the bottle tell her that bottle content is fresh pee and that if shes not careful that's what might end up drinking in the nearest future.
mary Says... Some times it best to say it as it is..... When i was in a telecom job in Lagos , my colleague used to stink up the whole place BADLY .... luckly she quarrelled with a troublesome girl who told her the truth of how her armpit ,mouth , pussy and all deals with our nose daily and How she was a dirty PIG
She came quietly to me later and say IS THAT TRUE ?........yes ooo for real i told her and gave her tips on how to reduce body odor . That helped greatly as she improved....na wah , this my poor nose don see something for that Lagos
I know someone like that but I tamed the bitch by simply ignoring her stares and when she asks for food, I tell her to stop begging people and start spending her money.
She respects herself now. You have to be blunt to these people because they don't understand how their actions are affecting others around them.
Poor Thing,I think you should tease her about it. Like drop small hint if you may. So she knows that @ least you can't stand it (esp on the begging part). @ fisrt you will seem like the stingy or inconsiderate person. But if your going to love your neigbour as your self, I sugest you draw a line on what you cannot endure and call her out (really nicely) on them. Goddluck.
Lmao! There's no easy way out of this one. Your are going to have to come clean and tell her straight up without mincing your words. *sticking her tongue down your drink*? Ugh Ugh...HELL NO!!
lol extremly too funny . dis stuff is everiwere . as i type i had 2 sneak amala nd ewedu (my lunch o) in my hand bad cos of this attitude in my office too oh . lmao even if fly pass dem go chop . it happens in a small office not big office if na govt office hia except u want chop jazz nd poison beg 1st . nd im sure u hav to eat on ur sit or u hav a sitting area 4 food . u need to tell d girl oh esp were no one is if u cant u kip givini exuses dat its veri lil nd ur very hungry , if u lie about d food she go stil peep see am nd my dear ders nofin u can do u wud feel stupid . had a girl in sch den dat did dat if u buy rat meat pie she go chop sef but her own u no go see am nd wen u do she wud say tamuno said i shud hold it 4 her . lolllls cant imagine eatin pples food esp wen ur an obnoxious fellow
Talk To her politelY and correct her constructively and not destructively.she really nids to change esp as a lady.her character is so unladylike.abeg help her save hersef.
Re-B don't we all do these? You sneeze, you cover your mouth & you say excuse me. You cough, you cover your mouth and use anti-bac. You blow your nose; as long as the tissue is clean and she throws it away. If she doesn't do these things then tell her.
Lol...suffering same with a guy in my ofix,he kips malice wit all the girls in d ofix bcs he wants 2 choke dem and ey refuse...eeewwww*ignore...just ignore
You must be talking of Isoken ...wunmi not sure of the surname works in a bank, but she nasty as hell. If its not Isoken then she sure is related. Nasty people yet dem f* lazy
I guess no1 is sayn anything cos she is a snr staff. slap d maga next time she touches ur stuff
Buy what she begs for most. Give her one and hold one. Once she has eaten like half, tell her 'babe u really need to work on urself'. When she's like how? Tell her ur mind and walk away. Damn d consequences. She may keep malice for a while, but i bet u; she will adjust.
She needs divine intervention.. If it dosn't come, ummm, its either u sack yaself or u bomb her... Hehe... Bro, don't let it get to you, people do have bad habits, just learn to live with it, or better still, pray for her to be transfered.
Your colleague must be an IBO girl, they love food more than their life. Their mantra: I live to eat instead of the I eat to live norm. Have ya'll been embarrassed by these IBO chicks at a party before? To them, a buffet means pile up your dish until there's no space anymore cos theythink that the entire thing will be gone before they come back. They can just take your glass from you and start drinking from it. To them it aint nothing. So there's nothing you can do about it but to leave that environment. Can treat it, it is sure pathological.
She Ȋ̝̊̅§ rude alrdy wit such behavior,,nd she doesnt give A̷̷̴̐͠ damn so u ar even doin her gud by callin her 2 order Just sit her down nd tell her "her character Ȋ̝̊̅§ rude alrdy dat u dnt mean 2 b rude bt 2 tell her d truth" den spill it
linda abeg you need to open another blog called 'talk to aunty linda on issues of the heart' i heard this blog is for news and gossips including other things except giving advice. ABI!!!!
Her attitude makes me wonder where yu work,smh! Nne endure yah? Just try to ignore her or better still talk to her abt it in a mild way and remind her dat she's a lady and shld act like one.. As for the begging aspect,,there is love in sharing naa so share wt her....lmao!!!!
Dat shows she had no home training. Pls You could try using a male colleagUe to insult her. WhEn thIs is done regularly. I think she wuld come back to her God given senses.
My brother/sister, i feel u. Once had a similar experience, had to put up with it, till a structural change came to my rescue. Anyway try this tips:1.Be straight and formal with her going forward. 2.Get an earpiece so u could get lost in your world.3.Adjust your eating habits 4. Make a new friend in the office, it'll distract you.5.Pray for a change. Hope this helps. Goodluck
LOL!Thank God you only get to meet this colleague of yours at the ofice,what if you were room mates? Truth is,at work we tend to have nasty and annoying colleagues,sometimes you wish you could put a gun to the person head!but you gat to learn tolerance.do your bit by coming clean to her,tell her what you really think about some of her awkward behaviours,i tell you no matter how stubborn she is,she'l def think about what you said when th chips are down,
I also have an annoying colleague but the issue is basically one of I-TO-KNOW.she doesnt ever believe she can be wrong about anything.She just wants to be the one that gets the whole job done despite the fact that she has colleagues that could be of help to her,she ends up doing the whole job alone and yet getting maybe even far less than i earn.Whatever!
Lets just try to accomodate the excesses of our colleagues,however annoying they are.afterall,it all ends at 5pm.*winks*
You must be puttingup with so much...iiieeessshhhhhh!!!I can imagine. I advice you sit her down and explain everything she does that offends everyone, talk as a friend not as a critic.
I'm concur with u anonymous. A letter will do it. Type it sef so ur handwriting won't be detected. Explain in full detail how 'somepeople' have begun to resent her. BADASS
I must say dis is so funny esp d stickin in tongue part! My dear der is no two ways abt it! U don't have to give her! Just tell her u are not giving n she should go get hers!
seee it depends on how u first started out , if in d beginin u didnt mind yea mayb now u mind . igbo ke hmmmm mine is mostli yoruba nd i wont condemn dem lik u cos its evriwere . u neva see hausa wey dey beg ba ? pls. "spit inside (make sure she sees you) before you start eating." dats ttooooooooooooooo funny . ive sneezed in my food b4 nd dem stil beg mi , na mi liv d food afta irritatin mysef. take God its jus colleague cos a beggy beggy roommate choi !!!!! worse pass cos na ur bafs go sufa . u need 2 jus ell d girl oh . but der r times u wudnt b able to finish ur food nd d 1st peson 2 come 2 ur mind 2 finish it wud b her sooooooo wat wud u doo. xcept u say "id remain 4 u " lol abolonjeki frend loll. well in my office if i wanna eat alone i jus go 2 an empty office eat nd do lik say i dey fast . even if im invited id jus say im not hungry . lol pple dey tink say na formin , its jus havin good manners nd controlling ur longer throat. phewww . pele my dear u sef u don chop d girl food b4 ?
I think you have to tell her when she's in a happy mood and don't be direct cos some people might be very sensitive and find it offensive..yoy can tell her but in a very diplomatic way cos for all u care she might not be aware of these habits
Well...If i were you, the most polite thing when next she triies that shit with you is to tell har Point-Blank to her face: "HEY!!! BACK-OFF BITCH, I AINT TOLERATING YOUR GLUTTONY NO MORE!!!, WHAT DA FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU SISTER? YOU GOTTA LEARN HOW TO CHILL MEHN, CALM DA FUCK DOWN AROUND MY STUFFS AND ONE MORE THING...PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, GO SHOPPING FOR SOME GOOD HABITS, TRUST ME, YOU NEED 'EM"
Heehee...Trust me dear, that will fuckin do the damn TRICK. You gonna be thanking me later.
Hmm, i feel u. I have a male colleague that sits right beside me with the nastiest habits! He chews loudly, belches uncontrollably and worst of all makes this grunting noises like his brains are stuck in his nose...its beyond disgusting! (P.S: I copied n pasted that from one of the comments). And dats cos its exactly wat a lot of us are goin thru, so no need to go over it all over again. These "bad habits" are soo irritating and i understand why she cant tell her cos i cant do the same up till this moment cos it so difficult to be RUDE cos theres no way u can "pu it nicely"... so am still living with it. Meanwhile: Anonymous 11:00am berra sharrap der! See his mouth like shes being rude. What wrong with voicing out one frustrations? Or did she write the persons name? Perhaps u get those nasty habits so u feel guilty.. Mr "tolerant" oshi...lol
I don't know y u igbos are highly intolerant of the truth. U guys make me sick! Long before that anon talked about Igbo people liking food, another person (possibly igbo) had talked about Yoruba people and called them dirty. No yoruba person has replied that person, and I don't see u ignorant sycophants calling that person a tribalist. Even LINDA is guilty of this! I've noticed how quick she is to post stories of yoruba folks involved in crimes abroad. We don't see the igbos and their crimes on this blog. Even though a good research on google will reveal that igbos commit crimes abroad by the second. PLEASE NAIJA SHOULD SPLIT ALREADY! We aint one in this country, and u igbos are the leeches found in most parts of naija, but can barely tolerate other tribes in your place.
See ekaite dey talk o. Abeg wen house girls begin browse? My friend go wash ur madam pant there. See calabar winsh dey talk say pesn dirty. U dey wash ur guava pussy after dose mai kilishi nack am finish? Who no know say igbo like food! Especially d girls. Na so dem go dey order ten plates of nkwobi dey shack bottles of star like villagers.
Take her to somewhere (an eatery, a park) so that two of you can talk and if after talking, she is offended and does not want to be friends with you anymore so be it. At last you were bold enough to let her know.
Anon May 25, 2012 4:48 PM you have a racist inspired mind and people like you should drop dead. The country should split my ass. The Ibos will be in your face forever. So jealous. Go to hell and burn.
hahahahahaha LWKMD...... u guys made me laff till tears started running and my stomach started hurting....no place like my country naija mehn, so this is wat ppl hv to put up with? So funny esp, 11.27, 11.45 and 3.40, una too funny, i'm in d UK and linda i always visit ur blog makes me feel like i'm home, thanx to the great members too, funny advices like pee inside a bottle for her, spit inside, sneeze inside, slap her face, eat inside ur bag, type anonymous letter, use fake names,give her rat meat pie, her personal mantra: i live to eat, una no go kill me wt laff, love u all,....i'm still reeling wt laughter
Anon May 25, 2012 4:48 PM your comment is incendiary. Blame Linda for posting tribalistic comments. Also blame her for posting responses without sequence. Sometimes when the posts come through, it's last first and first last. It's quite annoying and lazy. I usually condemn all form of tribalistic comments whether it's Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa so to all of you who have abused a tribe shame on you all. The thing is Nigeria will never split because of tribalism. Get over it and deal with it. If you can type what you did, you can kill your neighbours if they are Igbo.
ONOME says....... Nigerians and tribalistic comments; na wa o. We are all humans first.Why not address or label people as good or bad?why label them as either Christian or Muslim,black or white,Yoruba or ibo?
Hey... U'r a what!?? A cretin of the topmost order... Ur post is what!?? The most asinine, crass n bogus bullshit I'v ever had the misfortune to read.. Go get a life oh nna.. Anuofia!
You must be very big idiot for what u just said. It is people like u dt have bad habits. In fact u r worse than d girl in d story cos u r a tribalistic fool. I pray in ur time of dire need u will never find help. And if a yoruba person offers to help make sure u don't accept. Ode oshi!!!!
Ask God to grant you the utterance and pray before you call her and sit her down. See it as a problem or a challenge she has and she needs help. Dont feel irritated, talk to her in a humane way, let her not feel hurt, tell her people are watching her and are not pleased with that behaviour. I know by the time you finish she will come to love and respect you more.
linda ooooo!!!! ihe blog gi a ga ado, am yet to find out. @anonymous 2:34pm nwanne ka gi nwe aka....ochi ekwem type oo ihem choro etype. still laughing @kitikpa....ihe ka ahu gwurum ike ndaa. mana nnem anyi bu umunwayi ibo likiri nri well wellu. mana ihe njiri likee anyi bu, anyi puta na ama,anyi na acomport onwe anyi ofuma. enwere some atom of truth na ihe okwuru mana owu so n'ulo ka anyi na eme exhibit omume ahu,obughi na ama. outside ka anyi na echeta na ana watch weight. with that been said,am sure an ibo chick has turned him down and he came here to pour out his frustrations.
Idiot leleyi sha! So dem don dey allow internet connection for Aro abi? Oma se o! "Wetin dey yoruba land sef" u people are just ungrateful animals! That's why hausas dey kill una like fowl. With your frog brain. If nothing dey yoruba land, why are you igbos flocking their lands like refugees? Why una no fit stay una dry and cursed land whether no be only cassava una go dey chop. Even we for naija delta don't want to identify with you animals.. Before u come and start killing our people and stealing our lands.... Useless people. Awon olori iburuku oshi!
Ur an idiot for saying that we yorubas did not talk because it is the truth. Im yoruba and i refused to entertain that animal that mention yorubas cuz i know its not true its u igbos dat get hot body. Say what u like about yorubas i am not moved......
I usually would pray about stuff like "Holy spirit pls touch her heart". I will tell her my bit.
Sometimes I will say it jokingly.. like omo mehn, this drink sef, u like it ohh.... u know where u can find some next to that kiosk. I will collect money from u next time and buy it.
Or I will just give u a stern warning. DO not touch my DRINK.
Stop begging until u are offered.
I think me being me I WILL JUST SAY IT TO UR FACE. THE MORE IRRITATED I AM, THE MORE HARSH I WILL BE and I wont care.
Always looking to turn issues into tribal wars or religious b.s. Smh. Your parents must b proud. EMAIL YOUR COLLEAGUE AND IF SHE DOESNT CHANGE EMAIL HER AGAIN AND CC THE BOSS OR HR. SHD DO THE TRICK. COMMON SENSE. WHAT R U SCARED OF? AT D END OF D DAY U R ONLY HELPING THIS PERSON.
Mumu,,see idiot oo she called yu ekaite and ur here blabbing! Keep stereotyping calabar gehs to be sluts oo after ul claim ur educated and exposed.. Why wnt yu remain anon and talk trash,show ur face nw lemme slap yu tru ds fone so ur brain go coordinate! Ewu yoruba!!!
@Anonymous May 25, 2012 11:28 AM: You wan kill me? I've bin laffin for the past ten minutes and thanks to you , I now have a headache!!!! Too funny...........LmfAO!!

Hi,
The most diplomatic solution is to lie that you have an infection - flu ... nothn serious and the doctor advices you not to share anythn

Buy what she begs for most. Give her one and hold one. Once she has eaten like half, tell her 'babe u really need to work on urself'. When she's like how? Tell her ur mind and walk away. Damn d consequences. She may keep malice for a while, but i bet u; she will adjust.
She needs divine intervention.. If it dosn't come, ummm, its either u sack yaself or u bomb her... Hehe... Bro, don't let it get to you, people do have bad habits, just learn to live with it, or better still, pray for her to be transfered.

Your colleague must be an IBO girl, they love food more than their life. Their mantra: I live to eat instead of the I eat to live norm. Have ya'll been embarrassed by these IBO chicks at a party before? To them, a buffet means pile up your dish until there's no space anymore cos theythink that the entire thing will be gone before they come back. They can just take your glass from you and start drinking from it. To them it aint nothing. So there's nothing you can do about it but to leave that environment. Can treat it, it is sure pathological.
WENEVER SHE CARRY HER LONG THROAT COME, TELL HER "SORRY THE FOOD NO GO DO ME" OR "IT'S NOT MEANT FOR TWO" SIMPLE!
Hahahahaha! we all hv colleagues that sucks sometimes. Am sure writer- u suck too!!
ME
She Ȋ̝̊̅§ rude alrdy wit such behavior,,nd she doesnt give A̷̷̴̐͠ damn so u ar even doin her gud by callin her 2 order
Just sit her down nd tell her "her character Ȋ̝̊̅§ rude alrdy dat u dnt mean 2 b rude bt 2 tell her d truth" den spill it
na your colleague abi? endure! it is only your boss who fit sack her. e better as she no be ur spouse.
linda abeg you need to open another blog called 'talk to aunty linda on issues of the heart'
i heard this blog is for news and gossips including other things except giving advice. ABI!!!!
hi, trust me she is better dan d geh in my work place.ewwwww #sodisgusting#
Lmao@ She even stares at your food till you lose appetite for it...dude,ur a nut case.
You have not given her a stern warning and a dirty slap
How did this make it here? Slow news day? KMT.
Her attitude makes me wonder where yu work,smh!
Nne endure yah? Just try to ignore her or better still talk to her abt it in a mild way and remind her dat she's a lady and shld act like one..
As for the begging aspect,,there is love in sharing naa so share wt her....lmao!!!!
Dat shows she had no home training. Pls You could try using a male colleagUe to insult her. WhEn thIs is done regularly. I think she wuld come back to her God given senses.
My brother/sister, i feel u. Once had a similar experience, had to put up with it, till a structural change came to my rescue. Anyway try this tips:1.Be straight and formal with her going forward. 2.Get an earpiece so u could get lost in your world.3.Adjust your eating habits 4. Make a new friend in the office, it'll distract you.5.Pray for a change. Hope this helps. Goodluck
Ignorant Anon May 25, 2012 12:29 PM; i'm Igbo and i don't love food. Happy now. Tribalistic goon!
One advice, when you buy the food this time.. spit inside (make sure she sees you) before you start eating.
If she still begs you... then she don dey kolo be dat!..
LOL!Thank God you only get to meet this colleague of yours at the ofice,what if you were room mates? Truth is,at work we tend to have nasty and annoying colleagues,sometimes you wish you could put a gun to the person head!but you gat to learn tolerance.do your bit by coming clean to her,tell her what you really think about some of her awkward behaviours,i tell you no matter how stubborn she is,she'l def think about what you said when th chips are down,
I also have an annoying colleague but the issue is basically one of I-TO-KNOW.she doesnt ever believe she can be wrong about anything.She just wants to be the one that gets the whole job done despite the fact that she has colleagues that could be of help to her,she ends up doing the whole job alone and yet getting maybe even far less than i earn.Whatever!
Lets just try to accomodate the excesses of our colleagues,however annoying they are.afterall,it all ends at 5pm.*winks*
@Proudly Igbo, lol..ignore him. someone's been heartbroken by a damn hot igbo chick! and dude, loose the 'racist' attitude...
You must be puttingup with so much...iiieeessshhhhhh!!!I can imagine. I advice you sit her down and explain everything she does that offends everyone, talk as a friend not as a critic.
WRITE AN ANONYMOUS LETTER, AND SIGN IT: CONCERNED.
AND MAKE SURE SHE FINDS IT WHEN U R NOT IN THE OFFICE, SO YOU NO GO BE SUSPECT.....
Kitikpa gba gbu kwa gi ebe ahu. Inshort oko ike ko gbu kwa. U tribalistic ewu. Taaa mechie onu ishi gi ahu
I'm concur with u anonymous. A letter will do it. Type it sef so ur handwriting won't be detected. Explain in full detail how 'somepeople' have begun to resent her. BADASS
How can u spit inside ur food and still eat it? Ewwww
Please, send her a mail and cc HR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lmfaoooooooooo dis lindas blog wont kill me o
I think you have to tell her when she's in a happy mood and don't be direct cos some people might be very sensitive and find it offensive..yoy can tell her but in a very diplomatic way cos for all u care she might not be aware of these habits
This reminds me of a colleague of mine who now owes me about 4k under the pretext of not always having change when we are ordering lunch.
Well...If i were you, the most polite thing when next she triies that shit with you is to tell har Point-Blank to her face:
"HEY!!! BACK-OFF BITCH, I AINT TOLERATING YOUR GLUTTONY NO MORE!!!, WHAT DA FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU SISTER? YOU GOTTA LEARN HOW TO CHILL MEHN, CALM DA FUCK DOWN AROUND MY STUFFS AND ONE MORE THING...PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, GO SHOPPING FOR SOME GOOD HABITS, TRUST ME, YOU NEED 'EM"
Heehee...Trust me dear, that will fuckin do the damn TRICK. You gonna be thanking me later.
*puffs weed* #BomboclatJahRastaFariBabyloniaManJahBless...#OneLovePeace
@willadebo
Hmm, i feel u. I have a male colleague that sits right beside me with the nastiest habits! He chews loudly, belches uncontrollably and worst of all makes this grunting noises like his brains are stuck in his nose...its beyond disgusting! (P.S: I copied n pasted that from one of the comments). And dats cos its exactly wat a lot of us are goin thru, so no need to go over it all over again. These "bad habits" are soo irritating and i understand why she cant tell her cos i cant do the same up till this moment cos it so difficult to be RUDE cos theres no way u can "pu it nicely"... so am still living with it.
Meanwhile: Anonymous 11:00am berra sharrap der! See his mouth like shes being rude. What wrong with voicing out one frustrations? Or did she write the persons name? Perhaps u get those nasty habits so u feel guilty.. Mr "tolerant" oshi...lol
@ anony 12:29 U ve d most foolish psn I knw. Mscheeew.
I don't know y u igbos are highly intolerant of the truth. U guys make me sick! Long before that anon talked about Igbo people liking food, another person (possibly igbo) had talked about Yoruba people and called them dirty. No yoruba person has replied that person, and I don't see u ignorant sycophants calling that person a tribalist. Even LINDA is guilty of this! I've noticed how quick she is to post stories of yoruba folks involved in crimes abroad. We don't see the igbos and their crimes on this blog. Even though a good research on google will reveal that igbos commit crimes abroad by the second. PLEASE NAIJA SHOULD SPLIT ALREADY! We aint one in this country, and u igbos are the leeches found in most parts of naija, but can barely tolerate other tribes in your place.
I na atupuru ya onu? Onye iberibe nwuru anwu.
lol....dis ur advice sef....
lol....dis ur advice sef....
Ode(stupid person)
Obviously d yorubas didn't reply because it is d TRUTH , however igbo's find it a lie so they replied .. Ekaite
See ekaite dey talk o. Abeg wen house girls begin browse? My friend go wash ur madam pant there. See calabar winsh dey talk say pesn dirty. U dey wash ur guava pussy after dose mai kilishi nack am finish? Who no know say igbo like food! Especially d girls. Na so dem go dey order ten plates of nkwobi dey shack bottles of star like villagers.
Take her to somewhere (an eatery, a park) so that two of you can talk and if after talking, she is offended and does not want to be friends with you anymore so be it. At last you were bold enough to let her know.
What's the name of your company? i need to speak with your manager.
What a stupid comment. So its good to encourage bad behaviour then.
Lmfao......u jus described ma room mate....same fin mehn...itz beta u tell her..or wenever she begs u dnt give her..she can't kee u...
set a bomb under her chair....boko haram style hehehehehe or use raid as perfume and she will stay away lol
Anon May 25, 2012 4:48 PM you have a racist inspired mind and people like you should drop dead. The country should split my ass. The Ibos will be in your face forever. So jealous. Go to hell and burn.
hahahahahaha LWKMD...... u guys made me laff till tears started running and my stomach started hurting....no place like my country naija mehn, so this is wat ppl hv to put up with? So funny esp, 11.27, 11.45 and 3.40, una too funny, i'm in d UK and linda i always visit ur blog makes me feel like i'm home, thanx to the great members too, funny advices like pee inside a bottle for her, spit inside, sneeze inside, slap her face, eat inside ur bag, type anonymous letter, use fake names,give her rat meat pie, her personal mantra: i live to eat, una no go kill me wt laff, love u all,....i'm still reeling wt laughter
Anon May 25, 2012 4:48 PM your comment is incendiary. Blame Linda for posting tribalistic comments. Also blame her for posting responses without sequence. Sometimes when the posts come through, it's last first and first last. It's quite annoying and lazy. I usually condemn all form of tribalistic comments whether it's Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa so to all of you who have abused a tribe shame on you all. The thing is Nigeria will never split because of tribalism. Get over it and deal with it. If you can type what you did, you can kill your neighbours if they are Igbo.
"nigeria should split alredy"?-yorubas wey no sabi hustle.hw una wan manage survive.na igbos day carter for una ooo bsides wetin dey yoruba land sef?
ONOME says.......
Nigerians and tribalistic comments; na wa o.
We are all humans first.Why not address or label people as good or bad?why label them as either Christian or Muslim,black or white,Yoruba or ibo?
It's really annoying and damn shortsighted
Rat meatpie..lmao..cudnt stop laughin..had to take a few minutes to get myself togeda..made me wonder if there's even snake meatpie sef..lol
Hey... U'r a what!?? A cretin of the topmost order... Ur post is what!?? The most asinine, crass n bogus bullshit I'v ever had the misfortune to read.. Go get a life oh nna.. Anuofia!
The Marauders alter ego!
You must be very big idiot for what u just said. It is people like u dt have bad habits. In fact u r worse than d girl in d story cos u r a tribalistic fool. I pray in ur time of dire need u will never find help. And if a yoruba person offers to help make sure u don't accept. Ode oshi!!!!
ℓ☺ℓ=)) this is very funny
Aunty Linda people that comment on ur blog want to kill me ... i laugh totee people start thinking if I'm mad.
Ask God to grant you the utterance and pray before you call her and sit her down. See it as a problem or a challenge she has and she needs help. Dont feel irritated, talk to her in a humane way, let her not feel hurt, tell her people are watching her and are not pleased with that behaviour. I know by the time you finish she will come to love and respect you more.
linda ooooo!!!! ihe blog gi a ga ado, am yet to find out. @anonymous 2:34pm nwanne ka gi nwe aka....ochi ekwem type oo ihem choro etype. still laughing @kitikpa....ihe ka ahu gwurum ike ndaa. mana nnem anyi bu umunwayi ibo likiri nri well wellu. mana ihe njiri likee anyi bu, anyi puta na ama,anyi na acomport onwe anyi ofuma. enwere some atom of truth na ihe okwuru mana owu so n'ulo ka anyi na eme exhibit omume ahu,obughi na ama. outside ka anyi na echeta na ana watch weight. with that been said,am sure an ibo chick has turned him down and he came here to pour out his frustrations.
i know, she must b yoruba girl. abi? guy, try 2 correct her, n if u can't walk away, no time.............
What are all these shallow tribalistic comments for? is dat d koko of this post?
I dont think you can solve this issue without offending her, whether u say it nicely or not. Just tell her except u're ready to endure!
Idiot leleyi sha! So dem don dey allow internet connection for Aro abi? Oma se o! "Wetin dey yoruba land sef" u people are just ungrateful animals! That's why hausas dey kill una like fowl. With your frog brain. If nothing dey yoruba land, why are you igbos flocking their lands like refugees? Why una no fit stay una dry and cursed land whether no be only cassava una go dey chop. Even we for naija delta don't want to identify with you animals.. Before u come and start killing our people and stealing our lands.... Useless people. Awon olori iburuku oshi!
Ur an idiot for saying that we yorubas did not talk because it is the truth. Im yoruba and i refused to entertain that animal that mention yorubas cuz i know its not true its u igbos dat get hot body. Say what u like about yorubas i am not moved......
Proudly yoruba
U are a dickhead for saying yoruba.....please hang urself already mtchewwwwww
Pls discuss to her face.
I usually would pray about stuff like "Holy spirit pls touch her heart". I will tell her my bit.
Sometimes I will say it jokingly.. like omo mehn, this drink sef, u like it ohh.... u know where u can find some next to that kiosk. I will collect money from u next time and buy it.
Or I will just give u a stern warning. DO not touch my DRINK.
Stop begging until u are offered.
I think me being me I WILL JUST SAY IT TO UR FACE. THE MORE IRRITATED I AM, THE MORE HARSH I WILL BE and I wont care.
Better still, do not EAT AROUND HER.
As his friend u shd hv corrected it instead of turning it into a joke. It's not funny!
Always looking to turn issues into tribal wars or religious b.s. Smh. Your parents must b proud. EMAIL YOUR COLLEAGUE AND IF SHE DOESNT CHANGE EMAIL HER AGAIN AND CC THE BOSS OR HR. SHD DO THE TRICK. COMMON SENSE. WHAT R U SCARED OF? AT D END OF D DAY U R ONLY HELPING THIS PERSON.
just take her out to a nice place, tell her the truth but politely please. After dat, start to tell her ways both of can do to solve the problems.
Mumu,,see idiot oo she called yu ekaite and ur here blabbing!
Keep stereotyping calabar gehs to be sluts oo after ul claim ur educated and exposed..
Why wnt yu remain anon and talk trash,show ur face nw lemme slap yu tru ds fone so ur brain go coordinate!
Ewu yoruba!!!
@Anonymous May 25, 2012 11:28 AM: You wan kill me? I've bin laffin for the past ten minutes and thanks to you , I now have a headache!!!! Too funny...........LmfAO!!
