In my matric year, 16 years ago today, South Africa held it’s first democratic elections, which brought the ANC and Nelson Mandela into power. Since that day, some of you have spent each and every moment petrified, preaching that the end was near.

Nelson Mandela casts his vote in 1994

“When Nelson is no longer in power, we’ll be fucked.”

Then, from the day Thabo came into power, it was, “Oh dear, this Zuma guy is worrying me. if he comes into power we are well and truly fucked!”

But now that Zuma is in power and his biggest fault is his addiction to ass, it’s all about Malema and how he will “turn SA into another Zim.”

Oh please! Do you know how much has to be done before that can happen? Trust me, it’s a lot. One of the things that would have to be changed, to begin with, is the constitution. Trust me, you’ll have plenty of time to pack your bags and run for the hills.

“We’re not going to get the World cup,” is all you bitched the whole way through. And now that it’s here, you’re going for the, “it’s going to be a fuck up” vibe.

Shame on you. 16 years down the line, people are tired of your naysaying drivel. You’re painful and sad and should either leave, or change the subject.

Fill up your drink and enjoy the view.

I’m going for a quick dip in the ocean and then we can start the fire.
