<span class="html-content">
<p>GOOD MORNING MY NEIGHBORS!!!!!!!!ππππππ</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Hope you are having a wonderful weekend, especially my Muslim brothers and sisters (Sallah approaches)</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Please endeavor to send my ram, whether by courier or witchcraft, I'm available to take deliveries ππππ</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Anyway, to the business of today; we would be having a vocabulary lesson on different PHILES</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Yes, I know you are happy. Today, I will not be attacking your spoken grammar or usage of words, but just educating you.</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Who knows, you might find something you would use going forward?</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Jump in on the fun people because it is about to be a Phily ride(I just made that up)πππππ</p><p>1. POGNOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>My beardless guys have been attacked every fortnight for the inability of their beards to connect or even grow. On behalf of my gender, I apologize. I love a beardless guy. </p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Sadly, this post is not about you but the lovers of beards(so sorry ππ). Yes, a person that is into beards or love beards is called a pognophile. So when you see that girl or guy with an insane fondness for beards, (anyway you swing) this should come to your mind.</p><p>2. SELENOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>As I write this, "Talking to the moon" plays fondly in my head. Okay let me sing it to myself now, ".... talking to the moonnnnnnnnnnnnn, tryna get to you......." </p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Okay let me pause, there is a piece to be written girl!!!</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>A selenophile is not a Selena Gomez lover, no, but someone who loves the moon. Now you understand the Bruno Mars reference πππ</p><p>3. STIGMATOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Okay who is a stigmatophile? I'm sure your first guess is someone who loves stigmas(shakes my head in grief and disappointment)</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Sometimes, words are really not what they seem to be or look like. But look at your body, how many markings do you have? How many ear piercings do you have? None, two, three? Oh great, you are still not the African parent prayer point, that's awesome. </p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Why did I ask you to check for markings? Because tattoos, duh!!! A stigmatophile is a lover of tattoos and piercings. There, I said it π€π</p><p>4. HELIOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>I know you have learnt your lesson from the last one so what came to your head when you saw this?</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Some smart people may say helicopters</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Some will still disappoint me and say Hell(your case is still there)</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>A heliophile is a lover of the sun. Well, it comes close to loving hell because I don't understand how you would be that obsessed with the sun, I mean heat oh, and you just had to be named appropriately to make up for this love. At least, they got that one right.</p><p>5. CYNOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>A cynophile is a lover of canines and by canines, I mean dogs. Yes dogs, not your teeth, so please close your buccal cavity.</p><p>6. COIMETROPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>This one is a bit off because I might have to call you a vampire. Seems like a more appropriate nomenclature because why, just why?</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>A coimetrophile, wait for it, is a lover of cemeteries!!!!</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Like you love cemeteries for what exactly?? You see why I posit vampire seems more likely, because what is so romantic about a cemetery? Are you having dinners discussing the past with Napoleon or Micheal Jackson just happens to be giving you a great concert? </p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Are you networking with Rockefeller or getting political advice from MKO Abiola or Abacha? I just would really like to know. </p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Okay we will not discriminate so inclusion and diversity ππ
Anyway I think I'm done so let's just move on</p><p>7. AILUROPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>I am pretty sure once the cat lovers saw the canine comment, they wanted a piece. </p><p></p>
<p></p><p>You are getting your piece now AILUROPHILE!</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Yes, you already figured it out, an ailurophile is a lover of cats. Look at you, you Einstein, you deserve some pounded yam and ofe nsala with better fish and meat.</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>I'm on autophagy so excuse my french</p><p>8. AUTOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>An autophile is a lover of solitude</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Peace and quiet are their watchwords</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>The introverts are dancing and prancing because this is their jam</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>No dear, even extroverts can be autophiles</p><p>And yes my car lovers, an autophile is also a car lover</p><p>9. CERAUNOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>I love Thor, don't you?</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>As a marvel fan, if you do not love Thor, please leave this conversation</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Na, I'm kidding πππ Love who you want</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>If you are a Thor lover like me, then you probably would enjoy this one</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>I don't but I can't speak for you</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>A ceraunophile is someone who loves lightning and thunder. Y'all surprise me everyday with the things you love but to each his or her own.</p><p>10. BIBLIOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>My personal favorite and that is because it involves books</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>So yes, a bibliophile is someone who loves booksππ</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>A recommendation: The Subtle Art of Not Giving A Fuck by Mark Manson</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>You can also read Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Also Blue Ocean Strategy if you're looking to become an entrepreneur</p><p>The Bible is also an interesting read as a Christian</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>Great reads</p><p>11. CHIONOPHILE</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>A chionophile is someone who finds comfort in cold weathers. I guess Canada and Iceland have a haven for you if you fall into this category. </p><p></p>
<p></p><p>And we have come to the end of our session today ππ</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>You would learn more next week or soon enough, who knows</p><p></p>
<p></p><p>So let me know which tickled your fancy and which is weird to you?</p>

At the end of the month, we give out prizes in 3 categories: Best Content, Top Engagers and
Most Engaged Content.
Best Content
Top Engagers
Most Engaged Content
Best Content
We give out cash prizes to 7 people with the best insights in the past month. The 7 winners are picked
by an in-house selection process.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Top Engagers
For the Top Engagers Track, we award the top 3 people who engage the most with other user's content via
comments.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Engagers" tab on the rankings page.
Most Engaged Content
The Most Engaged Content recognizes users whose content received the most engagement during the month.
We pick the top 3.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Contributors" tab on the rankings page.
Here are a few other things to know for the Best Content track
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate contentβuse it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio contentβhigh-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover imagesβif your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.

Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.

user engages with other users' content via comments and upvotes.
Here is a list of metrics that are used to calcuate the Engagement Score, arranged from
the metric with the highest weighting, to the one with the lowest weighting.
1
A user's comments (excluding replies & said user's comments on their own content)
2
A user's upvotes
Monthly Score
The Top Monthly Contributors ranking is a monthly metric indicating how users respond to your posts, not just how many you publish.
We look at three main things:
1
How strong your best post is —
Your highest-scoring post this month carries the most weight. One great post can take you far.
2
How consistent the engagement you receive is —
We also look at the average score of all your posts. If your work keeps getting good reactions, you get a boost.
3
How consistent the engagement you receive is —
Posting more helps β but only a little.
Extra posts give a small bonus that grows slowly, so quality always matters more than quantity.
In simple terms:
A great post beats many ignored posts
Consistently engaging posts beat one lucky hit
Spamming low-engagement posts won't help
Tips, comments, and upvotes from others matter most
This ranking is designed to reward
Thoughtful, high-quality posts
Real engagement from the community
Consistency over time β without punishing you for posting again
The Top Monthly Contributors leaderboard reflects what truly resonates, not just who posts the most.
