Why South Africans are Special

230 Views 18 Comments

I thought I’d share why South African’s are so special, we have many sign posts and sights that are just… well… not right but hilarious. Perhaps that is why we used to be such a popular tourist destination… that and the fact that we are cheap…

PG rating is advised…

And the best one I am yet to get a photo of… It says : No Hooting! Ostriches getting laid!

I wonder if he managed to catch anything?

    Oh, this is so hilarious. I’m just beginning the day and after signage from SA, shall not take myself too seriously for at least a few hours. Thanks for this!

    How true, if we can’t laugh at ourselves we’d cry – rather cry from laughing lol. Glad you enjoyed, chin up & hang in there πŸ˜€

    My favorite is the Pothole Mecca of SA.

    The city of Berkeley in California sadly requires a similar sign.

    Lol good to know we aren’t alone! On my first trip to Kenya I got the shock of my life while travelling on the way to the Ngong hills, there sticking out of a pothole was a giraffe’s head! So alas we aren’t too bad πŸ˜€

    What a great way to start the day – laughing! With that sense of humor, it’s really sad that there’s so much turmoil going on. Otherwise, it sounds like you have very interesting inhabitants. With my warped sense of humor, I bet I would fit in!

    Lol you’d have a blast here that is for sure! Even through the turmoil we smile, our country has gone through a lot over the years, we have to laugh or we’ll just cry πŸ™‚ Glad you enjoyed and it put a smile on you’re face πŸ˜€

    What a cack!

    I loved the Green Toe Gang sign. I also like the warning about learning how to drive on playstation.

    One of the best warnings I’ve ever seen on a car was a bumper-sticker that said “warning, I brake for hallucinations”
