Sigh.
3. Your typical Nigerian father says he’s hungry but Oyinbo bae brings pancakes.
Daddy please eat it like that till she learns. Thank you.

The bastard queues!
5. Your boyfriend takes you out on a group date with your friends and then asks aloud for the waiter to split the bill.
Is that how you used to do?
6. When your boyfriend kisses you in public thinking people will clap, but everybody is shouting Audhubillahi and Blood of Jesus!
Demonic children!
