(5,477 posts)68. Your original "how do you know it's Nigerian" post...

Bonus points: if you maintain that your post was not intended as a veiled accusation, please do explain its purpose. I see no other option.
Edit: one poster actually did jump on to support this ridiculous notion, and took it a step further by accusing me of racism because I don't see "Nigerian" and "Gambian" as races rather than nationalities. Fucking absurd.
