Bodies for days, crybabies and baba’s return
A face for Father’s Day
You Satafricans will indeed not get to see the promised kingdom, I tell you.
It was Mother’s Day last Sunday and as usual, many took to social media to wish their and other people’s moms all the best for the day. Vera suspects that many superwomen answering to the calling of motherhood never got to hear the words that were said about them on Facebook, Twitter and other platforms. I digress. One nasty piece of work found time to write and Vera quotes: “Happy Mother’s Day to Zodwa’s body ... the face can wait for its day: Father’s Day.” Don’t worry Zodwa, dear. There will always be haters and Sis Vera knows we all don’t need them in our lives, like you don’t need those panties. Toss them out to the wind!

Many have often complained how we on the southernmost tip of this great continent have airs about ourselves in relation to the rest of the continent, often regarding South Africa as some appendage doing Africa some favour by associating ourself with her. Siyayitshela, period.
At times Vera is tempted to agree, especially when confronted by odd behaviour that exposes some house nigger tendencies even among the most arrogant of us.
Take for example that 50-yearold crybaby who does a great job coaching Mamelodi Sundowns.
The morning after the night before when Bafana ba Style were given a foot-balling lesson by Barcelona, who hardly broke a sweat, reports surfaced that fatso had ordered his charges not to tackle Barca stars. WTF?
It was not just limited to that. Noticed how the Sundowns players on the bench were made to occupy the hard plastic section of the bench so that Messi’s and his teammates’ behinds could sit cushy on the padded leather chairs?
Vera just hopes someone can balance us here, as they say nowadays. Motsepe forks out a hundred million dosh so that a bunch of Europeans can come and do as they please. The more things change ...

Whitney Houston once asked in song, Where do broken hearts go? Vera wants to know where old presidents go, after one Gedleyihlekisa emerged from the woods into the news once again.
Vera suspects we all miss the harlequin acts of Baba ka Duduzane, who hardly a week passes before we find something to put him back in the news. The other week it emerged that he had found another mamncane for uDuduzane and we were all aghast at how Duduzane was going to call an agemate his other mother.
Anyway, good ol’ JZ was in the headlines again when the DA and EFF walked out of a provincial parliament when it emerged he had been invited to a sitting.
That gave Vera an idea. We have all been wondering where the heck Duduzane is.
Well, we can use the old man as a reverse bait to flush Duduzane out of the Nkandla bunker, seeing that everywhere Jacob goes, people walk out ... remember Juju and his Teletubbies in Gog’ Baleka’s House?
Forget the lotto, bring Mduduzi
While many dream the gods will smile on them one day and give them those six numbers in one row so as to change their lives, others have discovered a new uniquely Mzansi way to hit the jackpot.
