emreal@emreal - The Dangers Of Being Too Good

Good people suffer the most, why is it that almost every trap that is set often end up catching the good ones while the bad ones escape? I have seen my fellow good individual suffer harm in trying to dispense the act of goodness to others, nevertheless we will not stop being good, we will not stop helping men and women who are in need of our graces.

This writer shared his story of what being good landed him into. Not sure what lesson to learn from his story though... Stay good or go bad?

alexlight@alexlight - Questions From a Confused Mind

I made the decision to kill time by pondering some of life's big questions as I sat in the bus, stalled in traffic. I had no idea, though, that the answers to these queries would just cause additional confusion and hilarity.

If only he found something better to kill time but instead he frustrated his brains after asking himself some funny life's questions.

balikis95@balikis95 - The Undiscovered Discoveries: African Mothers Vs. Scientists.

Speaking of scientists, they always work with backing things up with facts but... "How can they back up some undefined discoveries of African mothers?" It is crazy that there aren't facts to back the discoveries by African women.

Are there discoveries without backings? Yes. Who came up with them? African mothers. You should check out some of their backless discoveries.

kingsleyy@kingsleyy - Snake in the house

"Wait, you mean you want to go and kill the snake? Kingsley, it's very risky." Immediately after Nancy said this, my shoulder raised so high, she just noticed my bravery. I nodded my head and left them in my room and head on to hers.
To be honest, I was a bit scared because I didn't ask them how big the snake is; I don't know if it's an anaconda.

Taking pride in killing a snake even though he knew he was risking his life but he found something unexpected indeed.

nelson-george@nelson-george - The-rapist Nelson: The COMtest

In another lifetime, I would've made a good therapist, a very good one. It's just that it's really hard to help someone battle their demons when mine are almost killing me. I always tell people to embrace their demons because their demons have been here longer than they have and probably have more experience.

Can someone be badly good? This writer keeps professing that he's a good the-rapist but we all know it's actually the opposite.

supernova004@supernova004 - FOOD, GREED AND MORE FOOD. || COMtest.

At first, I smiled. I started to eat and eat. Then it got boring. I made to stand up but my mum declined. She got a cane and sat next to me. She told me that if i needed to ease myself, I should not hesitate to do it there, and then, continue eating. That she'll clean the whole place up.

What a dreadful outcome for him, you think? Then you should read the COM post to find out what really happened before that.

actordontee@actordontee - Gym Fitness Gone Wrong

I started with dumbbells, my friend jumped to a heavy weight of 5 kilos instead of starting with a light one.
Within two minutes my friend started breathing heavily.
The instructor rushed to take the weight off him.
He said he should take a break and go lighter.
But my friend said he will be fine, that we shouldn't worry. He then took a 15-minute break. After he had some rest, He jumped on the treadmill and set it to a fast run.

You're curious to know what happened to his friend after setting the treadmill to fast run? Find out in his post.

ovey10@ovey10 - Spreading Money During Parties Is Not For The Weak

After I spread everything and went out of their faces to go and seat with my other colleagues, of cause I've made a name and that was sweeting my body system but then where did that huge amount of money came out from? I asked myself and was just thinking and wondering how comes about this. I looked at the black trouser I wore very well and boom... That was when I remembered I wore the wrong black trouser

Ever got hyped to spend what you don't have? I'm thinking it was more than the hype, I mean how did he not know where the money he used came from?

josediccus@josediccus - Here's Why I don't love "The Love Of My Life"

They'd be like "Josssseeeephhh, my love, I'm sorry I don't love you" then I'd reply, "My little piglet, I don't love you too" It was so amazing, sometimes, I'd laugh out my lungs, and even people who are passing by would join in the laughter.

When "I love you" becomes a word said by just anyone to you, it's enough reason to not love the love of your life. You'll understand when you read this COM post.
