Guys, learn to look and waka pass

It’s not every fine babe you should stare at. [View in browser](=.CkG2-GBi-zkcOAl_477kOMI6RyYwwTOXild-c3v5_L0) [Zikoko Daily] 7 June, 2023 Hey . I wish I could go back and tell 16-year-old me to stop feeling guilty about liking beans because she thought she was already too tall. If, like me (and almost every Nigerian child), you believed beans made people tall, there’s an article in this newsletter that’ll make you question everything. Also, Marv has a message for Nigerian men today. Yes, baddies dey this world, but it’s okay to look and waka pass. Let’s not make people uncomfortable. 🤲🏾 Tife Editor In This Letter: - 1 [Can Nigerian men just slow down on these things?](=.lIMKPJ1H98mePPP16-sFS2wLGyiwsfFzxNcWAhP2Dac) - 2 [Does eating beans actually make you tall?](=.oE4OGM7XaQ8k5k6ZF0XUYHLvI2KMfqG-PIDcLP4rQKg) - 3 [What if Spider-Man was bitten by something else?](=.Y_fEiseLnLeCvyhBMl_KS866S39-kWWynHNq28ZtYcc) WHAT SHE SAID The Inside Gist: I Own 324 Books and Counting =.l65o6xEgeTr9xHg9p_G__1D_vR5xoJL5nLprFzabQWM Lolade, I’m so curious. At what point did the subject let it slip that she has 324 books? My dear, in the subject request form. That got my attention real quick because, as a book lover myself, I barely have 50, and I've been so proud of my collection. You really can't win in this world. LMAO. I can already imagine the interview was amazing, seeing as you both have a shared love for books. It went GREAT. We fangirled over the different titles and authors she mentioned — some of which I also love. In fact, we spent the entire interview fangirling and exchanging booklover stories. So best believe it was heavy work drafting the actual article. Do you think you'd ever get to 324 books? I definitely feel challenged. Also, now wondering if I could break a Guinness record for that. 🤔 Only one way to find out. It won't be bad to be able to say, "My colleague is a world record holder".

For this #TalkTrue episode, I spoke to a nutritionist about a subject that’s dear to my heart. As a tall babe who loves beans, I’ve seen pepper in the hands of Nigerians.
