Engulfed in a fever of spite
Beyond your tunnel vision reality fades
Like shadows into the night

How many BDS supporters does it take to change a light bulb? None, BDS supporters can't change anything.

Bwahahhahah I'm putting that on facebook

I'll stop buying Woolies sour gums when BDS stop laundering money for Hamas.

This is very true. The Fordsburg area is rife with jihadi money laundering.

you're becoming delusional if you think a cup of coffee you may or may not have had makes you (or anyone else) important to me.
because i am simply able to recall something does not make it of any importance to me whatsoever.

Actually yes recalling a mere cup of coffee does make it seem like you do follow what I say. I honestly can't recall what you type on these forums as I pay so little attention to you. But hey you can "follow me" on MyBB.

If only these goons would spend as much time on things that will improve South Africa. The more they rant, the more I look for Israeli products on Woolies shelves.

Which insecurities? Please enlighten me.

I like myself. What is your problem?

Well you brought up some irrelevant things which may come from your own insecurities. They certainly did not come from anything you could have deduced from what I said.

Yes we don't have local talent that does the kind of work he does, with that kind of reach.

Then maybe we don't need someone who does that 'kind' of work then. We have 50+ mil South Africans to choose from. It's a shame to promote a foreigner at a time when our Rand is so weak and our country in turmoil.

So you are hating on them for doing something good? Or are you hating on the artist for doing something good?

I'm not hating. Please don't project. I have nothing against that guy, just that I don't see a reason why we can't use someone local. Maybe not the same "global" standard, but then Woolworths products are not exactly world class.

It's a deduction. I mentioned a voucher complaint about a cup of coffee and it registered with you big time. I would not be able to recall anything this trivial unless I was interested in the person who posted that, or maybe I was some sort of White Knight for Woolworths. Honestly the first option is better.

Some good news on the war on terror front. Lower oil prices for longer means less Saudi Barbarian cash for terror ops and less mosque building (like that eyesore in Houghton) which are defacto hate indoctrination centres. Also less cash to finance jihadis like BDS and the upkeep of the mosques!

Riyadh (AFP) - The Saudi budget deficit will be more than twice its own forecast, a leading research firm has said, forcing the kingdom into the debt market for the first time in more than a decade.

Hit by plunging crude prices, the world's biggest oil exporter will post a deficit of $106 billion, compared with a government projection of $39 billion, Saudi firm Jadwa Research said in a report released late Tuesday.

The kingdom that exports 7.0 million barrels per day on average will see oil revenues fall by 35 percent to $171.8 billion in 2015, the quarterly report said.

Total revenues are forecast down 33.7 percent at $185 billion, while public spending is expected to remain almost unchanged at $290.9 billion.

Jadwa said the government is highly expected to return to the debt market for the first time in around 15 years despite its massive reserves.

"The government is now expected to issue debt as part of its deficit financing strategy," it said.

Saudi Arabia has massive foreign reserves, which stood at $714 billion at end February, but Jadwa said borrowing would eliminate the need for the reserves to be the sole source of deficit financing.

The kingdom is also forecast to post a current account deficit of $23.1 billion, its first shortfall since 1998, after registering an $81 billion surplus last year.

A large chunk of the forecast deficit -- around $30 billion -- is a result of new King Salman having granted Saudi workers two months extra pay.

The report did not take into account the eventual cost of the Saudi-led war in neighbouring Yemen.

Nor did it consider a possible cut in crude production to accommodate the expected rise of Iranian oil output if it reaches a final nuclear deal with Western powers.

Jadwa's forecasts were based on a 2015 oil price of $57 a barrel and an average daily production of 9.8 million bpd, up 200,000 bpd from last year.

Which things?
You are deflecting.
Like I said read a bit and find about the whole campaign.

So Trevor Noah and a million+ South Africans working/settled abroad should not be selected either, right? Because surely they have millions of locals in respective countries? I wonder if you have ever crossed borders for work?

Look forward to the day we no longer need to use oil and in turn fund terror

perhaps i have a better memory than you - ever considered that ?
or maybe, you made a huge drama stamping your feet like a petulant child over a cup of coffee - one or the other.
unless you are a drama queen, i'm going with the first option.


**edit
changed my mind. going with second option.
only a drama queen would bitch & moan about a voucher for a R10 cup of coffee on an internet forum
