^ what a fantastic custom that is NORF. really exudes community spirit and brotherhood. there is a hadith that encourages people to finish their food and that the last bits of food have the most good deeds.

actually, NG, the second part of the year has seen a shewd and prudent financial policy on my part. there is even a hagbad at the place at i work, i pay that on a monthly basis and i will take it last lol.

if your shoes are turned up-side down then that means your whole person is upside down. this is quite serious.

good afternoon and salam dearest juxa.

that's a nice suit he's wearing.

the words you are uttering are completely fabricated.

lol@JB, isnt that what most employers are looking for these days!?

^ are you jealous of our close and personal friendship?

^ lol@IBZ, i wonder if NG ever visited his home village east of burco? i have an image in my head of a clip i recently watched on NATGEO WILD where a tribe of Papua new Guineans encountered the white man for the first time. lol... you can imagine them saying 'waar, does this ciyaal carab know we're talking about him, much to NG's disappointment lol.

The shack across the road lol@NORF, that shack has the best tea in all of somaliland. it has its own dynamics too. there is the lady khat seller, who i reckon was a stunner like 20 years ago, we've become friends now. she's a kulmiye diehard and hates UDUB. there are the three sisters who work in the little shop, i occassionally flirt with all three and they don't seem to have a problem with this. i like ubax the best tho. despite whitening her skin, she's quite nice and lets me borrow things on tap loool. and there is the ex-imperial shop worker who after being sacked now has his own money-exchange business. he's a nice guy ruunti. i never go to imperial, its full of diaspora folk who are looking for mashruucs.

Supressing your tears and emotions all inside aint a good thing to do. When you cry you not only excrete harmful toxins from your body but also help lower with stress. That's why you feel better after you have cried. Personally when I see a grown man cry it makes me emotional and to me shows that he is strong and confident enough to express his emotions and feelings. Crying in a man means a sign of strength and not of weakness because it takes alot of strength to shed tears and share your emotions and you also come across more manly sexy and attractive if only they all know. Ladies do you find a crying men attractive sexy or just a turn off, how would you deal with a crying man infront of you? Gentleman what do you think of men crying and have you ever cried hidden from everyone, showed your emotions openly or you don't cry at all (which I find hard to believe)? Ps Knight what nonsense! somali feminist like 5 and nariah who are self-haters will come with all sorts of delusions to kill the masculinity of the somali man. this small yet very loud group MUST understand that no amount of derision and ridicule will help them achieve their ultimate goal : A WORLD WITHOUT SOMALI MEN: where IVF, strap-ons and 30-something-year-old career women are the norm.

in our collective history during colonialism as well as before that, our interactions with the White Man has always been somewhat imbalanced...based on a slave/master - dominant/subservient - coloniser/colonised relationship. that traditions has not changed one bit and is causing serious damages to our collective will, maanta. yesterday's historic events along with Somaliland's road to recovery may signal the end of the White Man in meddling in the internal affairs of our people and may signal a path towards mutual inter-dependency and partnerships based on collective interest. the White Man needs no introduction and is the devil-incarnate and certainly has a good interest in trying to manipulate us and set in motions actions that may benefit him to our detriment and eventual destruction . they may come with a sense of purpose, in kind of course, and claim partnerships in their attempts to alleviate the suffering they are partly responsible for in the first place. they may present to us capacity building plans for democratisation and long term strategic funding plans for public-sector developments but its all lies and we're none the wiser for wholly accepting their proposed ideas, without consideration. they may have productive ties and relations with one region in the name of aid & development and may not afford these inducements to other somalis but its always the same - divide and rule. our dignity, our integrity, our pride, our sense of being have to all intent and purposes been seemingly damaged in the process and our interactions with the White Man and inability to stand tall and united even if for Somalinimo. but there is hope and the day is fast approaching when we're in a position to kick these vultures and AIDS (Aid Induced Dependency Syndrome) infector to leave our land so that through collective actions and partnerships of strengths, we may prosper and be in control of our own affairs...that day my bros and sistas is here. join me in condemning their destructive actions. join me in condemning and holding them to account. join me in asking them to leave our land once and for all. Thank you, Alpha.

waar, as the cliche goes, one death is a tragedy, 10,000 are just a stat and lies spread by opposition. if your clan is so patriotic as you claim, why on earth would abdi iley cull them in large quantities? thats a little odd, don't you think? i see this is also in line with your historic role as been ******-*******s. if there is internal dissent in your neck of the woods, why must you come here and pollute us with pure fallacies of a greater clan purpose? this is uncalled for AT. you must really be a man of your words, why? becos i'm beginning to think this is an innate tendency unique to your type. they say 'the said people always talk and brag but never really act on their word. i forgot the maahmaah but its was for your clan lol.

^ that's an excellent question Arafat. its the imagined sense of purpose and patriotism that AT is force feeding us i don't particular like dee. this group of individuals are failing miserably in all socio-economic indicators. tell me the last time we had a fully ethnic somali hero come from this clan. the only tales you hear are how many camels they posses and now becos of ESTV propaganda, how many irrigation projects in the dhagaxbuur valley have been completed in the financial year of 11/12.

I have been getting calls from elated members of the community and there is no talk of "what is our share", "who is the PM going to be", "we will seceed if not given big portfolios", "we should get this or that" but an overwhelming joy that Somalis are happy and Somalia is going forward. They may be the gypsies of the horn, Galeano's nobodys, but for sure the most patriotic somali clan. I am proud to be from this community whose world revolves around the notion of Somalinimo and who are dying to uphold the dignity of Somalis. Last week, the Tigre's, for the first time in 21 years, met somalis who are not kowtowing to them, somalis who looked at them sternly without the need to blink when the Tigre's look back. It was a moment of pride for all Somalis for the Tigre's to know that Somalis are not all about Faroole, or Siilanyo or Iley or Sheikh Sharif. There are dignified men who can talk to them like equal partners. Back to Somalia, you will not hear a sulking man from this community even if they don't get any big docket. Hail the big-footed men of honour! :D these cowards massacred a group of innocent farmers and nomads just last night in xarshiin. you should be sidelined and i suppose the two generations of inter-racial/ethnic marrying with ethios have rendered your genetic DNA different and anti-somali. you might joke about it AT, my honourable close and indeed personal friend, but i find your type very repulsive. you cant eat with nor sleep in the house of the big foot. you might wake up only to realise he killed you. in the morning laughing like a kid with lots of snot hanging from his nose saying 'hey, hey, look what i did, its impressive somaha?
