The first thing that comes to my mind when I think about Africa is all of the hippos that people just assume are really happy.

But really aren't as pleasant as people think.

Windhoek , Namibia is the only city in Africa that celebrates Oktoberfest

and the German Karneval or Fasching or Fasnacht

I'd probably go to Africa to watch the 2k Flaming Tire Around The Neck run.

I heard it's quite an event in Africa, along with the machete head-chopping competition.

I think of failure.

I have to agree. Very sad.


I'm old enough that I recall some lingering optimism that decolonization would lead to an.... increase in African growth and developement since you didn't have A. imperial profits being extracted, or B. the layer of useless white people overseeing the work the blacks were doing while taking a cut they did not deserve.


It was already fading by the time I came along and now... wow.

When I was a youngster, the only thing we cared about Africa were the pictures of big floppy titties in the National Geographic magazines.

Africa and Europe have the "good blacks". American blacks are destroyed, uneducated killers roaming in packs. THX LBJ and EARS.
