My Take on Social Media Subs

Let's talk about 'subs'.

I have read many dramas emanating from this platform. People who are always waiting for someone to obliviously give them the slightest  chance so they could walk into the person's hearts and pierce it multiple times with their sabres.

Yes,  many minds are like that. These days, many hearts are filled with raging darkness, bitterness and the urge to drag someone to the gallows and have him/her hung while they watch as the person is being asphyxiated , they pour wine to make merry.

It is the human heart. You feed it with hate, it comes with all the vices that make the world a bitter place. You feed it with love, it comes with all the virtues that make the world a better place.

Who knows who would be the next person thrown into a stadium full of lions; and spectators would watch and cheer the lions up as they  devour the innocent soul.

People may just be here on your list waiting for the day someone would besmirch your hard earned reputation so they could aestivate and jump in to the scene to help drag your name through the mud.

It is a pity!

We all have to be careful.

If you are looking for popularity, please do something that a lot of people find helpful. If you are able to achieve that, people will visit your blog or your wall even when you are not writing again.

Enriching your blog's traffic through being involved  in 'facebook subs'  isn't going to help you, because you would have to be a serial and notorious 'subber' before people would even remember to have your sculpted image with devilish horns, venomous fangs and green eyes erected in a dark cavern. It will be called ' the Grotto of the Lord of subs'. You get popular through your bad reputation.

My friends please be careful.

I am King Ifey and I love to see you prosper.

Is it 'off head', 'off hand' 'off pat' or 'by heart'?

I love all the new students in my class. You guys are awesome by the way. 😀😀 Today. I want to give you a better expression for saying that 'you know something very well'. #Offhead? There is nothing like offhead. 'I know it off head' is wrong. #Offhand? What does offhand mean? It mean without previous thought or consideration. Just like saying 'on the spur of moment' , 'immediately', 'spontaneously'. So, do you just know something offhand? No...not at all. You can say something offhand, do anything offhand but then it seems weird to say ' I know the answer offhand'. It is normal 'to say the answer offhand'. Do you get my drift? People don't know anything spontaneously, rather, they  say what they already know, spontaneously. Now to the final expression #HaveSomethingOffPat? It means to know something or be able to do something perfectly; be perfect master of something . So rather tha...

Do you say 'talk more of' or 'talk less of'? Also, how to pronounce 'parliament'

My beautiful KIB students, today,  you will be happy learning the correct way to express yourselves. Nigerians have a way of changing typical English expressions to suit them. Someone still had to argue with me that the English expression 'Better the devil you know than the devil you don't "  is so wrong and does not make sense.  He opines that angel should be there.  He forgets that English can be quite illogical to our Nigerian minds. Lol. People say things like. 'He has not even proposed talk more of walking down the aisle with me' 'He does not have a car,  talk less a house" Well these two expressions or collocations are not common in British and American English. Here are the universal conventional English collocations for Nigerian English's  'Talk more of' and 'Talk less of',  #LetAlone 'Let alone' is  used to indicate that something is far less likely or suitable than something else already mentioned. E.g ...
