Long-time readers will have noticed that 2oceansvibe has undergone significant changes over the course of the last year. All of the change has had one goal in mind: to bring you better content, every day – you know, stuff that people really talk about. To that end, we’re happy to announce that Sipho Hlongwane will […]
There are actually two massive stories here, but I didn’t want to litter that headline. You’re here now anyway, right? Exactly. Well listen to this – not only was the Euromillions lottery won this weekend (£121 million jackpot = R1.3 billion), but the US Mega Millions lottery (coincidentally posting an equally rare jackpot of $312 […]
The government is going to be launching its own printed propagand… err newspaper, and it will be published by the head of government communications, Jimmy Manyi. Yes, Jimmy who doesn’t like coloured people that much. Basically we shouldn’t get our hopes up and expect much investigative journalism.
Elizabeth Taylor Artwork Discovered – Vanity Fair is proud to offer the exclusive first image of a lost masterwork recently discovered in a cellar of the building formerly occupied by Chasen’s restaurant in West Hollywood, California: Elizabeth Taylor Ascending to Heaven Accompanied by the Angels Michael Jackson and Richard Burton, artist unknown, date unknown (circa early […]
Yep, that’s right. We’re not screwing around. You don’t perchance recall this little announcement made earlier in the day? Well here’s the first of many benefits to come to you as part of the Jack Friday campaign (formerly known as the 2oceansvibe Campaign For The Abolition Of Friday Afternoon Work Hour Tyranny). Download these sick notes and submit them to your boss on your return to work on Tuesday morning.
Borre Erstad and Paul Age Olsen from Bergen in Norway waited patiently for the search engine’s car after receiving a tip off that the drivers were in the area. This is the sort of stunt that you can only dream of pulling off, but, these guys actually did it. Awesome ambushing footage after the jump.
The mankini-clad cyclist who sent South Africa’s cycling community into a heady froth over his BMX and lumo green couture has been identified. But there is so much more to this story than the superficial…
What’s in my bag? Free songs by Olinosterfant, Don’t Panic and Danti Daxi. Step inside.
Who knew that Johnny Walker was also a plumbing business? Check what I spotted driving along Buitengracht yesterday morning. Don’t you love the slogan, “keep it running.” Pure class I tell you. Not sure how the actual Johnny Walker would feel about this though?
Hey, you guys know that photo, right? The one with the tennis-playing girl lifting up the back of her skirt in a way that’s sort of sexy but also obliviously enough for people to call it art, rather than sexy-tennis-photography? It’s by Martin Elliot, who died recently, so the model’s decided to let us know who she is.
Here’s a totally non-creepy idea, that’s just won an Australian design award. It’s called “Prevue” and it straps over the pregnant ladies tummy and then mummy and daddy and all and sundry can see the Phoetus as it grows.

Forex trading is a way to earn money. Enough money to live the holiday, ergo, not work. Get out of the office, okay? Which is of course desirable because (I needn’t necessarily tell you) you’ll have both the times and the means to do whatever you want. What kind of things might you like to […]
Government has decided that we need a new nickname for our national soccer team. The affectionate monicker Bafana Bafana was a nice idea at the time, says Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula, but now we need ‘lions that will roar’.
You’ll have seen from the numerous banners on the site that we’ve embarked on a campaign here at 2oceansvibe to liberate the people of Cape Town from the tyranny of Friday afternoon work hours. A critical development has arisen, ladies and gentlemen, and we invite you all to read on.
I know we did this last week, but this is unfortunately the reality of the hour that one officially applies the Cape Town Friday Rule. It’s called habit, and there’s no better way to form a habit other than through repetition. Essentially you should now start embracing everything non work-like, so let’s celebrate with a naked shower protest.
I can actually hear Michael Stipe singing, “that’s me in the corner…”, as I’m typing this. A study using census data from nine countries indicates that religion will all but die out altogether in those countries. Have a look at who made the shortlist inside.
Fidel Castro has popped up in public to remind us that he isn’t dead yet, and to let us know that he isn’t in charge of the Cuban Communist Party. And hasn’t been since 2006, when he let his brother take over. Fidel didn’t realize that it might be cool to let people know that it was permanent.
We all want to be living legends. Like our boss, Seth. But this guy is very close to actually being one as well. He completed this years Argus Cycle Tour wearing only a Borat Mankini, a pair of sneakers, and his safety helmet. All on a BMX.
We all love Facebook. Some of us love Facbook so much that we’ve given up our meth addictions just to spend more time on Facebook. But every now and then Zuckerberg does something that just doesn’t sit right, like serving up adds as you type.
LOL, OMG And ♥ Added To The Oxford Dictionary – The stalwart bastion of language, the Oxford English Dictionary, will now include ♥ and LOL as real words worthy of etymological recording. Other words added include the formidable OMG. As they say, ‘words” like these “are strongly associated with the language of electronic communications,” and have […]
And that’s an unintentional pun in the headline too in case you were wondering. But, these really are the times that we live in. Now UK residents, Cornwall residents in particular, won’t have to worry about who will look after the chickens if one were to take a holiday or go on ones “gap yah.”
The original WILF, then MILF, GILF, and later GGMILF, Great Dame Liz Taylor was picked up in a limousine sent from heaven yesterday. During her time on earth, it took her no less than eight marriages to realise that she’s just not cut out for it. Her response in this video when asked if she’d ever marry again is…just…epic.
The Red Bull tyre-burning bonanza has moved from Marine Drive, Blouberg, to the Killarney Race Track, which is just up the road really. They announced this about an hour ago. If you show up at Marine Drive on Sunday you will witness precisely nothing, except for the usual kite-skaters and some severely hungover bar managers, emerging into the light.
I tend to die a little bit inside every time music heroes try to put out new material after they’ve peaked, but I really like David Bowie so I guess somebody up there likes me. An unreleased 2001 Bowie album called Toy made its way to the internet earlier this week.
One of the longest-standing 2oceansvibers out there, worldwarwon, has managed to get away with a colourful new installation in Hackney, London. If any of you dig this vibe, I suggest you watch the movie Exit Through The Gift Shop, a documentary created by and featuring one of the world’s most famous graffiti artists, Banksy. Click […]
News just in, Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder of Facebook and seller of your personal information, is no longer single. The world may now breathe a collective sigh of relief. None of us could bare his loneliness for even one a moment longer.
While walking is not always the most practical way of getting around, with troublesome Mercury turning retrograde in a few days’ time, you may want to try staying off trains, planes and other forms of mechanical transport for a little while. As evidenced by a tragic public transport collision in China earlier today.
Dave Moffat from the Dirty Skirts just sent this in. Enjoy the wording under “i’m lovin’ it” Pure quality. Thanks for that, Dave. Follow Dave on Twitter here.
The Japanese have displayed some of the most heroic efforts in aid of fellow man during this, one of the hardest experiences they have had to endure. Now, we’re happy to bring you an animal and man story. No dog, just a small dolphin in a rice field. That needed rescuing. Brace yourselves, this is literally fantastic!
