You can eat half dried meat and not be considered disgusting.<br /><br />2. Nothing is your fault, you can blame it all on apartheid.<br /><br />3. You get to buy a new car every 3 months and the insurance company even pays for it.<br /><br />4. You can experience kak service in eleven official languages.<br /><br />5. Where else can you get oranges with 45% alcohol content at rugby matches?<br /><br />6. It's the only country in the world where striking workers show how angry they are by dancing and singing.<br /><br />7. You're considered clumsy if you cannot: use a cell phone (without car kit), change CDs, drink a beer, put on make-up, read the newspaper and smoke, all at the same time while driving a car at 160 kph in a 60 kph zone.<br /><br />8. Great accent. (!!!)<br /><br />9. If you live in Johannesburg, you get to brag about living in the most dangerous city in the world.<br /><br />10. Burglar bars become a feature, and a great selling point for your house.<br /><br />11. You can decorate your garden walls with barbed wire.<br /><br />12. The tow-trucks are the first on the scene for most major crimes, without being called. The police you have<br />to call about three times.<br /><br />13. Votes have to be recounted until the right party wins.<br /><br />14. Illegal immigrants leave the country because the crime rate is too high.<br /><br />15. The police ask you if they must follow up on the burglary you've just reported.<br /><br />16. When a murderer gets a 6 month sentence and a pirate TV viewer 2 years.<br /><br />17. The prisoners strike and get to vote in elections!<br /><br />18. The police stations have panic buttons to call armed response when they are burgled<br /><br />19.
