This Heritage Day, we’d like to take a moment to honour South Africans for creating truly fantastic memes. From Instagram to TikTok and beyond, there’s no doubt that our country is filled with good humour.
Whether it’s looking on the bright side of a dark situation (hi, Eskom) or hitting us in the gut with classic culture, there are a bounty of witty locals who keep us giggling all year round.
Here are 12 memes we’re celebrating this Heritage Day.
1. Why be a mermaid when you can be a snoek?
