Joke – Incomplete text messages!


Sometimes, due to network problems or the length of the text message, we receive incomplete messages. It’s not often a problem; we simply wait for the complete message which usually takes seconds to minutes. But what if the incomplete text is full of suspense, how would you feel? Take these examples:

 A lady received an incomplete message from the boyfriend. It reads in part:
‘Please, Dr. Kehinde, I need my HIV … (incomplete)’
This lady spent the next few minutes waiting and wondering, ‘HIV drugs, HIV test, etc?’ To compound her worries, she receives a different message, ‘Sorry, that text was not meant for you.’ Then, the complete message came, ‘HIV magazine.’

A lady has been in a relationship for some months. She’s been hoping the guy would man up and say the right things. Then, she got an incomplete message:
‘Ada, I’m in love with … (incomplete)’
Ada said, ‘Oh, he’s in love with me.’
When the complete message came:
‘Ada, I’m in love with your jollof rice. Can you prepare it for me later?’
Ada was quite upset, ‘Ode (fool), come and eat fire. Mschew…’

Some other time, Ada received another message
‘Ada, I have known you for ages. You have been there for me through thick and thin. Today, I went out and looked for the perfect gift for you. Ada, please, would you be my … (incomplete)’
Ada jumped in joy, ‘Yes… Yes…’
Then the complete message came
‘Would you be my date for the forthcoming Night of a Thousand Laughs? I bought VIP tickets.’
Ada was disappointed at first. Then she called her friend, “‘I go die’ (comedian), will he be there?’ The reply was a yes. She said to herself, “At least, there is hope. If only I can get ‘I get I go die’ to see me.”

A man was in a beer parlour, when he received a message:
‘Congratulations!!! You are the brand new winner of … (incomplete)’
The guy was beside himself with joy. He ordered drinks for everyone while waiting for the complete message:
‘You are the brand new winner of a 500 naira recharge card.’
‘Mschew… Hey, wait! Don’t touch the drinks. Madame, please take back your drinks. I forgot my wallet at home.’

I've closely followed COVID-19 coverage for more than 1 year. Here are my key takeaways. (Part 1)

In January of 2020, I started seeing news of a novel illness in China. At that time, I didn't give it much attention because of the then ongoing impeachment trial of Donald Trump. One of my favourite pastimes is following up on current news and topical issues. So, it was towards the end of the impeachment trial that the news of this new infectious disease in China started picking steam in the traditional and social media. The possibility of a new transmissible infection reaching the shores of Africa, for me, was a dreadful thing to think about because it brings back the memories of the 2014 Ebola crisis in West Africa. As a practicing health care worker in Nigeria, I remember how it felt seeing febrile patients with history of travel to regions with confirmed Ebola cases. The last thing I wanted was to relive that experience. Hence, out of fear, anxiety and much trepidation, I closely followed every key event related to this novel viral illness that later came to be named COVID-19 ...

Reflections: A Moment of a Lifetime!

Image
We all have had a moment in our lives that we would always live to remember. That special moment when the earth stood still and the universe became your audience. Yes, that very moment you became the epicenter of the universe. The moment that remains indelibly marked in your heart and mind. That moment he saw her; that moment she saw him, and they both knew that they were meant to be together forever. That moment you stopped in your life’s pursuits and realized that your life has a larger purpose and meaning. That moment you made your life’s dreams come through. That moment you were declared a doctor or lawyer or engineer or the likes of that. Yes, that moment you began your life’s career. That moment you got a promising job. That moment you stepped from the plane and you began a new phase of your life. That moment you stood at the altar, took an oath and swore your undying love for your life partner and then opened a whole new chapter in the history of your life. That moment yo...

Reflections: A Sense of Humour! A Sense of Balance!

It helps to look at the light side of things. If someone insults you or make you angry, can you look at the funny side of it and smile about it, it can go a long way to ease the tension! When you sense that people laugh at you because of a defect you have, can you preempt them by joking about it? For example, I’m short and dark. If someone wants to pick on me, that will be his first point of call. So, I joke a lot about my been short and dark like, ‘black pot’, ‘black charcoal’, ‘briefly summarized’, etc such that when so insulted that won’t be the first time. Don’t be discouraged, whatever defect you have if you can’t change it then take advantage of it. What you lack vertically, you can make up horizontally. What you lack in length, you can make up in width. What you lack in colour, you make up in contour. What you lack anteriorly, you can make up posteriorly. What you lack superiorly, you can make up inferiorly. What you lack outwardly, you can make up in...
