Viral Video: A Japanese Politician Cries Hysterically After He’s Caught Stealing $30,000

Posted in: , , ,

A video showing Japanese politician Ryutaro Nonomura breaking down in hysterical tears during a press conference has gone viral!

When the 47 year old was asked by reporters at a press conference to explain his theft of public funds, he wailed and hit the table several times. The explosive meltdown was over how he had used $30,000 of public funds for his personal travel expenses.

For those who don't understand Japanese, a Facebook friend taxed herself to translate what he said here (for free, I might add);

'I wouldn't have misused the public funds for my personal travels if it wasn't for her. you would too, if you had eaten from her pot. Oh Ekaete! see what you have done to me!'
*Weeps.

As The Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria Pageant Premieres, A Case Against Beauty Contests

Posted in: , , , ,

By Etcetra

Every year, thousands of girls compete in various beauty pageants across Nigeria. While the organisers may believe that they are helping our girls to feel “beautiful,” they are also in many other ways causing significant damage to the self-esteem and body perception of other girls.

The girl who won may feel as beautiful as the prettiest woman ever created, but what about the girls who didn’t win? How do they feel?

I spoke with some past contestants of one of the pageants (the girls that didn’t win) and asked them why they think they didn’t win, and this is what some of them said:

“Because I wasn’t pretty enough,” “Because the organisers didn’t like me,” “Because it is a racket and who knows what she has offered,” etc.

Couples Who Use Twitter a Lot Are More Likely to Cheat and Break up

Posted in: , , ,

Results from a new research say if you and your spouse spend much time on twitter, then you are likely to cheat and break up.

PhD student Russell Clayton from the University of Missouri-Columbia who conducted the study found that too much tweeting leads to arguments, often about the amount spent on the social media network, as well as jealousy about who a partner is talking to.

The study also found the more active a couple is on the network, the more likely they are to be unfaithful to each other, and for the relationship to eventually break down completely.

10 Marriage Tips Every WIFE Needs to Hear - And It's From A Twice-Divorced Woman

Posted in: , ,

I wanted to take some time and write down some things that I’ve learned in the last ten years.  You see – I’m now in my third marriage.

When people learn this fact about me, their reaction is usually pretty awkward.  It’s almost as if they’re waiting for me to be embarrassed by my admission.

While going through two divorces was some of the most painful times of my life, I’d only feel ashamed if I’d gone through it without being able to say I’ve learned a thing or two.  My husband and I had both been through divorce before we married each other, and with that brings a unique perspective into many do’s and don’ts of how to treat your spouse.

A Daddy’s Letter to His Little Girl About Her Future Husband

Posted in: , , ,

Dear Cutie-Pie,

Recently, your mother and I were searching for an answer on Google. Halfway through entering the question, Google returned a list of the most popular searches in the world. Perched at the top of the list was “How to keep him interested.”

It startled me. I scanned several of the countless articles about how to be sexy and sexual, when to bring him a beer versus a sandwich, and the ways to make him feel smart and superior.

And I got angry.

Little One, it is not, has never been, and never will be your job to “keep him interested.”

Celeb Insta Fashion - Genevieve Nnaji Celebrates 4th of July With Friends

Posted in: , ,

Genevieve tagged the picture of her in a simple blue thin-strapped floral gown with black cardigan "#aboutthismoment. #4thOfJuly". She's obviously at home with friends and has little or no make up on.

What I want to know is, who is that mystery man in the picture? Genny, do you want to tell us something?

Meanwhile, her picture is causing some controversy among her fans, some of whom don't think Nigerians should be marking the US Independence day when they don't live in America. Others came to her defense, saying there's nothing wrong with it.

What do you think?
