Arsenal is either about to give me the biggest joy or the biggest heartbreak at the end of the season, but regardless I’d still support this club forever.
You work at Deloitte so you don’t have to worry about losing your job to a foreigner willing to take a 50% pay-cut. This is something the waiter at your favourite restaurant has to deal with. This is what the construction worker next to your office park has to deal with. The car guard outside “Pantry” has to deal with this. It’s not a coincidence that many of these jobs are taken by foreigners.
You live in a gated community with 24-hour surveillance so you can sleep peacefully at night. You don’t live in central Joburg next to buildings hijacked by foreigners that house drug dealers/users and criminals.
You buy your fresh food at Woolies so you rarely have to worry about your food being spoiled. Your child isn’t sick because they bought repackaged rotten food at the Somalian spaza shop down the road.
This is why I’ve been enjoying the content from the digital nomads infiltrating Cape Town. You didn’t see an issue when poor people were complaining about the effects of mass-immigration. But now that your favourite coffee spot is charging you R70 for a latte and your rent has almost doubled—now the “government has to do something” 😂
That’s why it’s very important for you to shut TF up if you come from a place of privilege.
unless you’re naturally a music lover, no one warns you how you’ll become less interested with new music the older you get, & you just go back to all your old favorite songs
My broski’s girlfriend is not my friend and never will be. She’s “cool” as long as she with him and doing right by him. If she’s not… she’s as good as an OPP.
