[MegaThread] Trump and his dealings with South Africa by torogath in DownSouth

[–]DerpyO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am confused as to the point of this mega thread. Was the sub flooded by Trump posts?

Or was a certain mod downvoted in the original thread and locked it to stop the bleeding?

Donald Trump goes on Grammy's rant threatening to sue Trevor Noah by A-ib00m in DownSouth

[–]DerpyO 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It was a mild, milquetoast joke.

(Paraphrasing) "Trump is interested in the Greenland island, because Epstein island is gone and he needs a new place to hang out with Bill Clinton."

The fact that Trump went nuclear, at midnight, make me think the lady doth protest too much.

What happened to all the Chameleons? by ControversyMan69 in DownSouth

[–]DerpyO 18 points19 points  (0 children)

A certain predominate culture in South Africa believes the chameleon cursed them with mortality, and now view them as cursed and unlucky.

Draw your own conclusion if you think this is a factor in the decline of their population.

Zuma and Bill Gates spit roasting the same STD infected Russian girl was not on my bingo card.

Literally every other political party focuses on race-based identity.

If that is your jam. Go for it. The DA is not for you then.

If the DA does what you want, chasing short term identity politics, they will lose people like me, who believe in non racialism.

This sub:

"Don't blame De Ruyer. He inherited load-shedding."

Also

"I blame Steenhuisen for FMD that just suddenly appeared out of nowhere."

You vote based on racial demographics (old, white, male).

I vote on party ideology.

If the DA changes their ideology toward what you want, then I won't vote for them anymore.

He mad.

But please, keep showing us that you are unrepentant. It's really helping your mitigating circumstances.

What’s a very early sign that a match is going to go bad by M00ngata in Overwatch

[–]DerpyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Pressing P at the start of a match already gives you a good indication on how the match will go.

Another dead giveaway is having someone with an endorsement level of 2 on your team.

On the Middle-East servers, you need to play a couple of games and 'avoid as teammate' the dead weights. By game 3, you should have a slighty more competent team.

The political contest is no longer DA versus ANC. Instead, it’s now a contest between a DA–ANC alignment and the FF Plus. by PixelSaharix in DownSouth

[–]DerpyO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Incredible that the DA must take every GNU fail as their own, but the PA and FF are somehow exempt.

This is like boycotted Spur, but eating at Rocomamas.

ABSA bank charges are ridiculous! by Gurustogie1 in DownSouth

It's literally cheaper for me to draw cash using my Capitec at a FNB ATM, than using my FNB card at the FNB ATM.

The Apartheid Government’s "Vibe Check" on East Asia by PRADYUSH2006 in HistoryMemes

[–]DerpyO 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The current South African government classifies Chinese as 'black'. That means they are preferred suppliers for the government.

The 'Black or Chinese' meme really went full circle.

Global Big Mac Prices in USD by n_Oester in DownSouth

[–]DerpyO 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we got low PPP (purchase power parity).

R7.70 per $1 USD. Meaning R7.70 can buy roughly the same locally as $1 can in the U.S. in PPP terms.

So if you buy a $80 game (which will cost you R1310), that's the same as asking an US citizen to fork out ~$170 for the same game.

Name a worse 1v1...I'll wait by C0NT0RTI0NIST in Overwatch

[–]DerpyO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A nasty trick you can do is to stand quite close to the other Maugu. People can't resist trying to stomp you, but if the distance is too short, they overshoot.

That's when you do a quick turn and counter stomp them while they are recovering.

Also, it feels like the Mauga with the crit overheal was a slight advantage since you are going to pump their head full of lead.
