@emrysjobber - Don't mess with my patience, I'm tougher than I look|| The rogue passenger.

A man sitting behind me was alerting the driver that he has gotten to his destination but the driver turned deaf ears to it, I guess he didn't want to stop in the BRT lane to avoid getting caught. the man kept shouting to alert the driver but he just continue to act as if he wasn't the one we were talking to, eventually the man kept quiet and said nothing. we all tried to talk to the driver on his behalf but this man asked us not to bother.

The outcome of this story got a little shocking and to think that we won't get to know how it really ends with the driver and the passenger, is a little unfair.

@zeegirl - Culinary Capers: My Hilarious Kitchen Mishap

My siblings know how to piss me off. I guess they take that as an advantage over me. I was busy in the kitchen preparing the ALMIGHTY EGUSI soup when my younger brother came into the kitchen. Not only that, but I was actually busy cutting the vegetables when he walked straight up to the pot of boiling soup, opened it and tasted it, then he shouted "As Usual Tasteless food." Oh My Gosh! It felt as if I was bitten by a bee, quickly, I dropped my vegetables and went off to chase him. I tried chasing but Alas, he slipped away like a shadow, vanishing before I could arm myself with a suitable weapon. You know how painful it can be, if someone make fun of your cooking skills.

Nicely described, siblings being siblings and the almost big mistake our narrator almost committed. The progression of her words in the story made it interesting to read and hilarious.

@bhetea01 - Was she truly foolish?

I was sitting at home this afternoon with my mom peeling melon that would be used later in the day to prepare Egusi soup. While peeling it, a woman knocked on the door and before I could answer and check who it was, she barged in angrily and sat on an empty sofa near my mum in the living room.
I and my mum turned and stared at her speechless. Her little drama got us wondering what was happening. My mum finally broke the silence.

A conversation that was both funny and crazy, it's a hard one to decide if the woman was really foolish or being kind as the narrator thought too. A part of the story was more hilarious, check it out.

@balikis95 - Moana Needs To Come.

Let's leave that and get to why I need Moana. So, it happened that for the last few weeks, I have been angry for no reason, which is very unlike me. I get irritated with unnecessary talks that I love and lots more! This made me turn Te kā! Who we all know was once Te Fitti. Now, tell me, what are the odds? Why isn't Moana coming to save me from this phase that I have found myself in? Zealy has done me well with sleepless nights and unexplainable mood, which I know is mainly because I haven't had a good sleep.

This writer is threatening to turn Hive upside down if we don't get Moana to come to her, what a sarcastic comedy it is!

@rayoo - Diary of a foodie.//. A taste of regret

Unfortunately, there was a day when her luck ran out. On that unfortunate day as usual her boss sent her to get food. She decided to eat her usual portion. She took a bite and realized that the food was exceptionally good she couldn't help but be tempted to take more than the usual portion, she even had the mind to take a bite from the chicken, like the audacity, lol. The food was so delicious but She had to stop herself from eating any further.

Okay! This has got to be some really serious shit when it happened but super funny to think back to it. You really should read the story to know what happened to our unusual foodie.

@lara-bee - Stranded in Lagos.

I had the intention of going to Lagos about four years ago during the festive season when my aunt told me she wanted me to deliver some stuff to her friend who was travelling back to the UK and she needed to go with the package that contained dresses. I didn't want to run sun errands for her initially but she was ready to pay my fare to Lagos. Aside from that, she told me that her friend would definitely reward me.
Upon hearing that, I was excited and agreed to run the errand. I arrived in Lagos on Friday and the person agreed to meet me somewhere on the Mainland the next day.

Is the part that she spent her transport money to eat an early breakfast she rarely does, that was funny. Well, she got lucky an aunt picked her call.
