Anele says in Xhosa culture, if you arrive at an event in an S-Class or even a helicopter, get ready, you're doing a speech! 

It’s just known: an S-Class means you’ve reached a certain level and anything less might even get side-eyes. You could pull up in a Range Rover and someone will still ask, “But why didn’t you get an S-Class?” 

But that’s just one example. In different cultures, we all have our own markers of importance: 

Maybe it’s owning a family business, sending your kids to a certain school, having a house in a specific area or even the size of your wedding!

Let’s be honest — growing up doesn’t mean you stop being scared of certain people. 
You could be pushing 40 with a bond, two kids, and a whole job… but let your mom give 
you that look from across the room — suddenly, you're 12 again. 

Or maybe it’s your old teacher, your no-nonsense auntie, or even your boss who still gives 
you heart palpitations. 

Respect? Trauma? Muscle memory? Who knows. But no matter how grown you are, 
some people still have you shook.

So, Anele was at a 70th birthday party this weekend – a big, beautiful milestone 
celebration. Speeches were being made, heartfelt tributes were flowing… and yet, people 
were talking. Loudly. Mid-speech. 

It’s something that happens way too often: weddings, birthdays, funerals someone is 
pouring their heart out and there’s always that table at the back, laughing or chatting like 
it’s halftime at a braai. 

Is it bad manners? Are we just too casual as South Africans? Or are speeches too long 
and people tune out? 

Whatever the reason, it’s disrespectful. A speech isn’t just words - it’s someone standing 
up to honour, reflect, or thank.

It started with just one post someone sharing how they’d moved back to Joburg after trying to start a new life in Cape Town. But what stood out? The flood of comments underneath it. Dozens of people saying the same thing: “Same here.” “We’re back too.” “Cape Town was great, but Joburg just works for us.” 

From soaring living costs to job opportunities being centred in Gauteng again, it seems more and more South Africans are quietly packing up the coastal dream and heading back inland. It’s the unexpected reverse semigration wave — and if the Facebook comments are anything to go by, it’s bigger than we thought.

Have you made the move back? Was it emotional? Relieving? Frustrating? Let’s talk about what really brings people home.

We’ve all been there someone’s fast asleep on the couch, mouth slightly open, mid-day light streaming in…Do you wake them up? Let them be? Cover them with a blanket?
