Mageza
Short for Magezel'empompeni, is a derogatory name used to refer to a taxi driver. The word directly translates to "the one who baths from a tap". The name originates from that stereotype that taxi drivers have a long distance relationship with water.
Abo mageza from Jozi are so rude and funny at the same time.
Bafana Maths
Bafana Maths refers to the calculations Bafana Bafana usually does before qualifying for a major tournament. It usually entails “if team A wins, team B draws, and we win by so many goals, then we qualify”
We need Nigeria to beat Benin and we beat Rwanda, then we’ll qualify for the World Cup. My Bafana Maths is on point now.

Take it or leave it
These are the guys who sell alcohol during the hard lockdown, when there is an alcohol ban. They inflate their prices like crazy. You can even get an 1818 bottle for R850.
They got the name because they don't care, it's either you buy at their 500% price or you leave it.
I got this gin from my Take it or leave it guy.
