Amebo!

First off, happy June 12 (click link and scroll down for Nigeria) y'all. Sorry I'm a day late hope those of you in Las Gidivocab enjoyed the public holiday? :o)

Now, for my milklady update...or in this case SERIOUS AMEBOvocab (but I prefer to be called the milklady thank you). In the past, we've had people sign on to hi5 and create profiles of actual people and then write abusive testimonials about them - a way to get back at them (if you haven't heard of this then your'e a big ROASTOvocab). E.g. a useless guy acts like his usual stupid self and does a girl anyhow, and the girl (sometimes with her friends) decides to get back at him and creates a hi5 profile of him, attaches a picture of him that she owns and disses him in the "about me" section. The picture may sometimes be incriminating or a normal pic, and then this "supposed guy" invites others to his hi5, usually his friends and friends of friends. So they all think hmmm isn't this person already on hi5? Okay let me accept the invite anyway, and they do. Some just accept and ignore viewing the page but some people have extra-sensitive radars (I think they may be mutants), I call them amebo-radars and they click on this person's "new" hi5, and bam! There it is, a whole testimony/self-description about the guy, usually exposing his dirty laundry and things of that sort.

I know this because I have seen a few of this on hi5 thanks to the people with mutant- amebo-radars (no offence guys). Anyways leave story, I've given you some insight, if you still don't grab then please get off this page, you're not cool. (jk)vocab So, I was reading my dear new blog-friend (heheheh, what a "tacher" I am! Ok ok, I'm her number 1b fan...I know she understands), Taureanminx's blog and she had a post about someone blogging and as if to say it wasn't the person etc. etc. but I didn't quite grab (yea slow Mona - it was Monday evening dammit!) So I went to this blog oh and ha! This just takes the absolute biscuit and prevails all over hi5 lo5s I've ever seen! (Thank's kunle... I knew that phrase would come in handy)

And 'cos the guy they wrote about is Nigerian or, well has Nigerian names, y'all know I had to holler!vocab I say no more....frankly, I was weak after reading it....whoever created the blog went a bit deep but hey! Do you think the person went a bit too far or do you think it is dependent on what the guy presumably did to the person? Menn maybe I live in the past but ha! Anyways read on....(click here)
Apologies if anyone finds it offensive

P.S. Yep, I've confirmed someone else did this, and it seems it was his ex la vie en rose - read the comments.

P.P.S. Speaking of hi5, you thought Naijas would stop there, have you heard of Naija5?!!! A carbon-copy of hi5 with the theme: Na here we dey! I trust Las Gidi to never let me down. People hit me back please!

Wow Naija5. And it doesn't look abd either. I'm past all that hi5 stage though (although im still on it) but im sure they'll get a whole wave of youngsters joining up.

As for that Nonso stuff, it really made my skin crawl to see such vile treament of someones mother. Like someone said on my blog, a female scorned...La vie en rose has declared WAR and she had to drag poor Mrs Obih and Ifeoma into it.

Naija5? LOL!!! Should have seen that one coming.

As for this hi5/blog attack, we do crazy things when we are so annoyed oh... But we regret it eventually...

It wont work. Copying the business model exactly is corny. They need to steal some parts and build on it...

Whether you can have the herbal Viagra online . Some people claim that since herbal cheap Viagra alter the hormonal balance of the body, they are potentially harmful. This is true indeed if the herbal Buy Cialis are taken for a long time.
