Nephew (5): what are you doing?
Me: just working on some ads. Do you know what an ad is?
Nephew: yeah, something you skip 💀

My Checkers 60 app only works intermittently. Majority of the time it only shows me the checkers hyper options. I’ve deleted and reinstalled but the problems persists. When I change my address it works. Could this be an area issue? Please can it be fixed

Nothing worse than your tea dropping a few degrees below optimum temperature and then it just doesn’t slap the same.

They put our Imaan and reliance on Allah to shame 😢

May Allah help the Palestinians

I’ve just watched my generation go from being the children at cricket matches to taking their children to cricket matches 🤯🤯🤯

@WOOLWORTHS_SA this is what you need to be using as a sample during R&D taste sessions for low cal Frozen Yoghurt.
@waitrose wins this one!

Crazy how one minute you and your friends are struggling with the exact same maths problems in high school, and the next they’re on their 3rd child and you’re debating on the best country to be a digital nomad in. Same age, completely different journeys.

What are the chances you can score Centre Court ticket and get good seats? @WimbledonAlerts
Just let these CC finals tickets go because it felt too high up. Wise or foolish?

@MasudDasoo And the balls have to be replaced after 5/6 matches 😩

How do I live in South Africa and not in Cape Town? I ask myself this every time I leave here. This needs to change. Tweeting it into existence.

The Abaya debate 💰

Am I really paying for overpriced material
Or am I just hopping on the bandwagon protesting the cost without being fully aware of what it entails to run a small business(sb)?

As an Ecom sb owner myself, here’s my take.
Disclaimer: I do not sell Abayas

@Safiya_S_A Be it Zara or any other clothing retailer.
Clothing is volume driven. The more you produce the cheaper the cost per garment. Sbs don’t manufacture in the 1000s, they would do a few hundred at best - so their cost per garment would be much higher.

@Zubiscuit I may as well add influencer to my bio now 🤭

[Aaqila @leftphalangeeee]

If you made it to the end of this thread then you have wasted enough time. Do you know what’s worse than wasted money? Wasted time. Instead of reading this thread y’all should have just gone and bought that overpriced abaya instead 🌚

[Aaqila @leftphalangeeee]

Or, would y’all prefer that they drop their prices to under R1000 only to go out of business a few months later? This would leave you stuck to import it yourself which I can guarantee will be 3x more expensive.
R1600 sounds pretty cheap now, huh?
