#TikTokTuesday – 24 January

Tuesdays just got a whole lot more exciting! Take a look at the top TikTok videos that are trending in South Africa, Africa, and the rest of the world:

South Africa: When She Calls You “Tsotsi” … 

@lefamoloi When they start calling you “scam” or “tsotsi”, RUN #mjolo #mjolothedating #makhelwane #relatable ♬ original sound – thembadlamini536

You’ve been there before: that one neighbourhood granny who’s alone at home and is looking for some “company”. Before you know, they’re talking sweet (or dirty) and giving a sneak peek of their assets. Play it cool like @lefamoloi or run – just RUN.

Africa: How to Body Shame an Entire Country

@dikatso Gambia is shaped like no other country in the world. It’s long and skinny. Its borders are based on the Gambia river. The country is less than 48 km wide at its greatest width. With that, it is the smallest country on mainland Africa. #countriesconvo #tiktokbotswana #tiktokbotswana #tiktokgambia #tiktokgambia ♬ original sound – dikatso

Wow, Botswana, whatever happened to being one of the friendliest countries in the world?

In this hilarious clip, Botswana (as portrayed by @dikatso) gets a little (read: majorly) cheeky by taking shots at Gambia’s shape. Shame, at least it has access to the ocean, unlike its southern counterpart.

The World: Snack Cake Attack

@thahodgesfamily I bet she think twice next time No one was hurt, just a joke tiktok. #dadjokes #fatherdaughter #dadsoftiktok #parentsoftiktok #fyp #trending #GenshinImpact34 #meechoandyaz ♬ thank u so much – <3

As the @thahodgesfamily of the USA shows us in the clip, don’t be that person who takes the last snack cake. It’s not worth getting the beats for. (NB: Don’t worry, folks, no kids actually got hurt in this video!)
