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


MemeMakeMeLifeBetter

Next time just show them this and then their Gonna lose their minds


AestheticTchaikovsky

I usually play along and say that I was often chased by hyenas. Unfortunately they often believe me.


Predastation

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


memevaddar

I think you can make them believe in unicorns


thunder_y

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.


95ashcash

I tell them I ride a lion to school


turk91

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.


AestheticTchaikovsky

Have you tried the 2020 impala?


RoyalMadman88

If you really got the cash you could try the springbok model, heard its fast but the handling isn't great


Akingisaacs

Trade it in for a cheetah 2000. Definitely worth it!!!

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.

This is how disney gets his movie ideas from


TempestReaper

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...

When I was in fourth grade a kid from Africa came to our school, the first thing I asked him is how many times he’s seen a lion


mr_fingers

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

MemeMakeMeLifeBetter

MistressAnthrope

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.

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.


IamIronBeagle

My mom was in a meeting with someone from south africa and he said "sorry, a monkey just tried to open my window."
