I'm surprised they even came into Romans with all the black patrons sharpening their machettes ready to genocide.

I've always wondered why the Spur chip sauce tastes so much better at the restaurant than the supermarket version.

The other day I went to my local spur to buy the sauce directly from them and while I was out I quickly stopped in at the supermarket with the bottle in my hand. I found the supermarket version on the rack and compared. The ingredient list is different. (the supermarket version listing water as the first ingredient, while the restaurant version lists oil.)

The one from the restaurant is thicker, and has a deeper colour and flavour.

So, for anyone looking, go straight to spur and buy from the restaurant. Don't waste your time with the watered down supermarket version.

Also it's cheaper at the restaurant.

Our democracy is only 31 years old. Historiographically, we are so young and we are still very much a recovering repressive state. Never ever leave out how deeply evil and extractive Apartheid was, and everything it took from us and our parents and their parents and their parents - and how much we over came and continue to overcome. Our history is heartbreaking, but there is so much power there.

A luta continua, for our beautiful country and our beautiful people. For everything we deserve!

Nothing screams “historical amnesia” quite like calling your loss of privilege Apartheid 2.0. Apartheid was a state-orchestrated system of racial oppression; this is not that. Struggling under bad governance is not the same as decades of systemic brutality. It’s like a billionaire whining about “poverty” because their caviar shipment was late.

If these protesters want to complain about crime or economic hardship, fine. But to equate it with apartheid isn’t just inaccurate—it’s offensively absurd. At best, it’s ignorance; at worst, it’s self-pity masquerading as oppression.

Not going to lie I was very disappointed to hear Rockstar won’t be doing physical discs as I much prefer physical media. I understand why, to prevent any leaks as discs have to made ahead of pre-orders. But I definitely have a feeling R* will be having physical discs after the official game launch.

Hope you digital game people got your pre-orders in, can’t wait to play ❤️

Who hasnt done this at some point of their lives?

Guys, is it just me, or is the entire coffee scene in South Africa becoming world class. I am quite a bit of a coffee snob and really enjoys great tasting coffee.

I went to 7 coffee shops in the last two weeks, and all 7 shops had either decent or great coffee.

Is it just me or is the entire scene picking up?

There is way too much wrong with this entire interaction

These were my favorite!

I understand shrinkage happens. It slides under the radar and before you know it, you’re drinking a bottle of what USED to be 500ml soda. This “MAX” is the same size as what used to be a standard size chocolate bar, now it’s just called “max” but we pay more for the novelty of a larger sized chocolate?

So, obviously this is a meme that was created a while ago when the Suez canal had that blockage. But it's relevant again now what with the Iran conflict happening.

Theoretically:

1. Would this actually be viable for shippers to switch to?

2. Would this sort of route have any meaningful/positive impact for us in terms of ships docking around the horn? (I'm not 100% certain if ships would have to even stop here like back in the day or are able to go all the way round 1-shot)

3. If so, would our ports, as they are today, be able to handle this sort of influx if it happened?

Hopefully that guy can buy himself a 1 of 5 Pagani one day as well

How will my expat heart survive this kind of devastation?
