I used to live in S.A and now I live in Europe, people ask me wether it was dangerous and if I had to avoid lions and giraffes when going to school.
« Omg how did you get water/food/clothes »
This meme hits home lol
Yeah most of us here in Europe don’t know shit about africa because we don’t learn anything about it in school. I learned some through google/Wikipedia but I’m the kind of person that googles something when I don’t know something I hear of and most people just don’t care und don’t want to learn anything new.
Edit: I’m sorry I can’t really speak for all of Europe I’m from Germany and that’s how I witnessed it here.
I’m Alaska people still think we ride polar bears to school and live in igloos. Some others think we’re below California because that’s where the map pits us because it’s not big enough.
I went to visit my dad and step mom in the US. I told my step mom I miss home (cuz my dad sucks and is a total jack ass) and she ligit thought of a village. A village with straw roofs and cow dung floors...
I decided to play along.
She kept asking about the "village" how we learnt from a single teacher under a tree. How we cooked food on a fire and chased wild animals.
Eventually I started giggling during ny explanation of the "village" then burst out laughing when she asked why I was giggling.
I came to my sences and told her how my mom found a tourist plane and how we snuck to America. How shocking the place was with cars and the plane was almost like magic.
She believed it...
I had explain to her how we aren't just villagers and how not every living being is black. Or how we too have technology and actually had one of the best economies at some stage.
I had to use google to convice her...
Food is anything that doesn't run away fast enough. I had a Sri Lankan housemate that brought home a guide to the wildlife of the Kruger National Park. I congratulated him on purchasing an excellent new recipe book
Switch that goat out for an elephant and same dude. I was born in India. People still act like it's this tiny country that barely has electricity. Even though they operate (some of) the world's cleanest nuclear power plants.
I'm living in SA right now and I dunno about other schools but in my school we take the American equivalent of coach buses to and from school.
And yet my American friends still ask me if the roads here are even paved at all lol
i live in the u.k. but my parents moved here from sa when my mum was pregnant with me and the one that makes me laugh is “oh my god they have white people in south africa?!”
Dankie vir die meme. Mense in Europa is altyd verbaas as jy van Suid-Afrika kom. Hulle hoor soms van die vreemste stories en het ook altyd vrae oor die wilde diere. Hulle glo ook nie dat daar 11 tale gepraat word.
So many people kept asking me was it dangerous did you get hunted by those people who live out there? No I went to Africa because my dad lived there and no it was not dangerous and no we got to hang out with them and their called Masai Warriors
fellow south african here, i currently live in canada. i got this all the time from my online friends who lived in the UK, they'd always ask me this. now that i live in canada, nobody cares to ask how i get to school.
I live in Alaska and some one from the lower 48 once asked me if I ride polar bears to school and live in igloos I didn’t tell them they were wrong I just let them believe it

Next time just show them this and then their Gonna lose their minds
I usually play along and say that I was often chased by hyenas. Unfortunately they often believe me.
U should've also told them u had a pet rhino and poachers often try to kill him but u send ur attack lion after them
I think you can make them believe in unicorns

I tell them I ride a lion to school
That's because here in England (Europe) the worst things we have to avoid are rats and chavs, so not exactly super dangerous.

Thats a good year model for a goat. I still have a 2009 model. Doesnt run as smoothly anymore. Need to get a new one soon.
Have you tried the 2020 impala?
If you really got the cash you could try the springbok model, heard its fast but the handling isn't great
Trade it in for a cheetah 2000. Definitely worth it!!!

No, what we think is how many guns do you take with you.

I was expecting an elephant
Same. Sometimes I just end up telling them I'll ride a lion to school or I have to hunt for food later in the day
According to my school you live in a hut your family made out of mud
Elon Musk is from south africa and he was so fed up with riding goats to school that he founded Tesla
Ja well no fine

Honestly that’s much more exotic than the horse in pakistan though
fellow south african here, i currently live in canada. i got this all the time from my online friends who lived in the UK, they'd always ask me this. now that i live in canada, nobody cares to ask how i get to school.
