My first day in SA school was so embarrassing. Reason being I didn't know about roll on. I have seen a lot of people say Zimbos don't bath, usually the case is that people especially those from poorer backgrounds don't know about roll on and it's importancce. So hence they smell

Lerato with the pumps is the one they go to when everything else is crumbling because she's most likely the one genuine friend. She's not in their life to fit in but because she genuinely likes and wants what's best for them and is happy with herself. She's not competition.

Lerato with the pumps would probably be called at 3am when shit goes south and is asked either to drive there or Uber them home. Lerato with the pumps will do it because she likes them and she is a real friend.

@MbauReloaded If we lived in a society that favors women over men, majority of the world leaders would be women, executives would also be women, but no, women are not and tend to earn the least and at times not simply because they're not qualified enough, but because they're not favored.

So it's not that they don't bath, but thing is they actually don't know about roll on and have never had to use it in their lives probably because it wasn't a necessity or widely bought then. So the people just believe bathing is enough and roll on isn't necessary.

Many people who work in big cities are up at 3am to only arrive at work at 7.30am. Some walk for kms everyday from their drop off to work place. They get back home late at 8 or 9pm.. Yah no, I don't see any laziness hey. People who feed this narrative live comfortable lives.

2 weeks ago, I received a call from a guy telling me that he is the bf of my 2.5 yr gf. Yesterday I found out that the guy who called me was not the other bf, but someone used to act as one. They used my friend's mom's phone. The actual other bf doesn't know. My life issa movie

This #NicholasNinow 's mother interview is very weird. How often have we seen journos go to the black family or community of a convicted rapist or killer to find out his background? It's almost as if they make it like crime committed by a white person is an exception

I will say this again A sharp grade 7 pupil under Cambridge or Zimsec syllabus can probably pass that Maths Lit matric paper 😒.. A decent form 2 kid will definitely pass it quite easily.

Yeah if you’re studying actuarial sciences and want to qualify, this is very bad advice. That salary difference between you with less and the ones with more exemptions will have you in pains.. In general, for all students, get your distinctions, they actually matter, a lot.

Just pass your course. Even if you scrape through with 50's. Distinctions mean nothing in the real world

@ErnestB_ @Jeff_hound @LeeLivesOn @Rato_K @Trevornoah That show is mainly for Americans and they understand the context of that. The white genocide issue is being spread by right wing groups to America and Europe, most of them don't understand the context, and Julius is giving those right wing groups ammunition.

@polankosinathi @SizweDhlomo I thought people would learn after this Bianca saga. You're currently a student, soon you'll be looking for a job. Don't be reckless for likes.

@jfk9000 @micmoa @MmusiMaimane @Our_DA No no and no, this is a lie. Imagine Mark Zuckerberg had been some kid in one of the many poor areas in SA, even with ideas, he'd have needed money. Research has shown time and time again that those who come from better families financially are more likely to succeed.
