Yes, but we can see you only show your bad behaviour to people that deserve it. So, please, by all means, continue.
You got #{score}/#{total}
Very, you were a very badly behaved child, and now that you’ve grown up small, your bad behaviour is even worse. We would beg you to stop, but it looks like you actually enjoy it.
You got #{score}/#{total}
Not at all. You act like you shit rainbows and piss unicorns.
If you notice that you’ve been making any of the gestures mentioned in this article for a while, you’re not alone. But remember not to do some of them in public sha.
Covering your mouth when you laugh
Koreans cover their mouth when they laugh as a sign of respect. If you’ve watched a lot of K-drama, you may have copied this habit subconsciously. Sha don’t do it in front of older Nigerians before they tell you that you think their mouth is smelling.
In K-drama, the main characters slap their heads a lot. As a Nigerian, adopting this would probably come easy because older people have randomly hit your head since you were a child to date, what difference does it make if you now do it on your own? Make sure you say, “Aish,” after slapping your head for added effect.
Flicking peoples heads
Flicking people’s heads is the Korean version of knocking someone’s head in a friendly manner in Nigeria. Does it hurt? Yes, but it’s not your fault you learned bad thing. Everybody go dey alright.
Clapping when you laugh
As a k-drama fan, it’s not strange to find yourself clapping while you laugh. No, you haven’t been possessed. You’re just copying what you’ve been watching. As a Nigerian sha, be careful how you do it outside before they think you’ve lost your mind.
Throwing the peace sign
One day you saw your favourite character in a drama series throw the peace sign, and now you can’t pose for a single picture without doing the same. Don’t worry. You’re not alone. Plus, it’s super cute.
Making a heart with your whole body
The transition from doing this as a K-drama fan to a K-pop fan is insane. All your friends are sick of you posing this way in every picture. Not us, though. We’d take pictures with you any day.
Making two fists and shouting, “Fighting!”
You can’t imagine yourself cheering someone on without making a fist and shouting, “Fighting!” as loud as you can. How else will your friends know that you believe in them?
Bowing your head before receiving things from people
People probably think you’re the most respectful person they’ve ever met, especially if you live in a Yoruba-dominated city. But don’t overdo it sha, because some people deserve to be disrespected. Don’t let your head stop you from giving it to them hot-hot.
Dear Nigerians, we know you have good intentions. But sometimes, you need to check those good intentions before someone decks you. If you know you do these things to other people, whether they are strangers or people you know, please stop. It’s not proper.
1. Pulling down a stranger’s blouse or t-shirt because their waist bead is peeking out.
No, but what is your problem? Can’t you see something and turn your eyes away?
2. Walking up to them to pull their sleeves because their bra strap is showing.
The question for you is “Why?” Why did you do that?
3. Seeing people and asking them why they have gained so much weight.
Clearly, boundaries mean nothing to some of you.
4. Seeing them and asking why they are not pregnant yet.
Whatever spirit that wants to make you ask this kind of question, please rebuke it.
5. Grabbing them to get their attention.
This is really horrible, sha. And it’s wild when you are going on the road and someone grabs you to come buy their wares or come enter their bus. Please stop it. Really.
6. Seeing them and asking, “Hope you are still a virgin oh?”
If you ask me this, I’m going to assume you want to sleep with me. Because, clearly, there is no other reason to ask me such a personal question.
7. Peering into a stranger’s phone because they are next to you on the bus.
The worst part is when they tell you, “Bros please scroll down a little, I have not finished reading that part.” Excuse me, is everything alright at home?
8. Dipping hands into someone’s food because you know them.
Even if you are dating, please minimise this act. Or maybe ask them before you chook your spoon or hand inside their food.
9. Commanding them to give you something because you know they can afford it two times over.
In this economy where everyone is struggling? LMAO you better check yourself.
10. Going on a stranger’s picture to comment rubbish.
This is really unkind, sha. If someone posts and the only comment you have is something horrible, just look and pass. It’s not every post you must respond to.
With all due respect Susan, pls let me call you aunty.
Years ago, back in UK, my 1st time in my Masters class, the Dean was addressing us, I had a question and kept saying excuse me sir, excuse me Sir; the man didn’t answer, then one small girl on my table called him by his first name and voila he answered.😳🤷🏼♀️.
“Might you be interested in correcting this?” Are you whining me?
Instructions from your manager/senior colleagues are framed like suggestions but you will be in trouble if you don’t implement it. https://t.co/791NfH2hnz
I started a Bible class in London. After an evening class, our group pastor asked for those who were interested in going to the bar for 1 or 2 glasses of beer. I shock o. I kuku went and low&behold, over a glass of beer, the conversation was still about what we studied in church.
First time i went to a hospital & i saw alot of doctors & nurses had tattoos on their arms.. had to look around again to make sure i was really in a hospital😂 make dem no prescribe wetin go kill me
Landed in Manchester Airport and took a one hour car ride into Lancashire; in rush hour, cars everywhere. About halfway into the ride, something felt seriously wrong, then I realised what the problem was – I couldn't hear a single car horn! The entire ride. E shock me!
First time I tried to chew bone in front of a non Nigerian and they screamed. Me: abeg calm down I wasn't intending on swallowing this one. Got another level of respect o. They probably thought was going to eat them if they mess up 😱
LoL. Lab attendant mistakenly broke a glass while we were in the lab. I said sorry. Everyone turned and looked at me like "na you push her?" Even the lab attendant sef dey look me like say I said something bad.
Didn't know you only say sorry when you are at fault. 😭😭
We started online classes on zoom and one of Coursemates was rolling his weed and smoking in class with his camera on. Infact, he was contributing to the lecture as he was smoking.
