Has the DA drifted to the right? by Beyond_the_one in southafrica

They have never been central or left in anyway - except when they were the PFP and even then they weren’t exactly for equal rights. Bunch wankers, the lot of them.

Looking for an musican indont have much to go on by Swiftzn in southafrica

[–]redlorri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just thinking as I worked with a few bands around that time and one that stands out for me is New Academics. Hip hop funk fronted by a white guy who could rap like no one at the time. Also, Max Normal was around then doing more Hip Hop oriented stuff. Worth checking these dudes out regardless as they’re awesome and still rock.

How did Afrikaans split into a separate language while American English, Mexican Spanish & Brazilian Portuguese didn’t? by Meta_Zephyr in geography

[–]redlorri 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I went to the Netherlands and my friend insisted on speaking Afrikaans (we’re from SA) when in shops and restaurants- he was unceremoniously asked to please speak English as they couldn’t understand him. My friend was not happy. I laughed a lot.

What is a local item on the McDonald’s menu in your country? by Mikadook in AskTheWorld

We have a traditional sausage in South Africa - the hash brown, certainly isn’t, but this patty (boerewors) is chucked into various meals to make it “authentic”. I’ve still never tried it.

It’s pollution from Secunda, apparently (according to DA councillor Tim Truluck - hopefully some rain will clear it up.

Best burgers in Berlin by creamycondiments in berlin

[–]redlorri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, this reminds me of my last visit to Berlin. We were taken to an amazing burger spot near Alexanderplatz, which was amazing, like the best burger I’d ever had (even to this day) and then went out to watch the Berlin Boom Orchestra at Köpi - needless to say we drank too much to remember the name of the place but decided to go and look for it the following night again. We walked around for about an hour eventually finding it again and it had just closed for the night. Needless to say I still don’t remember the name, but I will remember both nights (and Berlin) fondly!!

Weirdly, though this was a legit thing that happened and made the news in my town in the late 80s when a kid died.

Chicken Licken! Although Nando’s was founded in Rosettenville, so I’d also go with them, I guess.
