Will you buy me a drink if I tell you.
In the pub (that used to be a church!,)at the
Royal Hotel, in Pilgrims Rest, Mpumalanga, South Africa - there is a board with these letters carved into it - WYBMADIITY. It is almost guaranteed that overseas visitors
will glance at it and then ask the barman - "Oy what does 'wybmadiity'
mean?" - He responds casually, "Will you buy me a drink if I tell you?" They invariably agree to do so and only then after further clarity and payment for the barman'
s drink do they finally get it, that is what it means.
