- A guy shared then-and-now photos of his crew, but one buddy, “Tall,” got roasted for no longer living up to his moniker.
- South Africans chimed in with hilariously witty comments, poking fun at Tall's height transformation.
- Despite the teasing, the thread sparkled with lighthearted fun, celebrating the bond of friendship.
You know those moments when you scroll through your feed and stumble upon something that just makes your day? That's exactly what happened when a group of friends decided to share their then-and-now photos on social media. This wasn't just any ordinary trip down memory lane; it was a celebration of their journey from high school to adulthood. But as with anything involving friends, things got a little spicy—and Tall became the star of the show, though maybe not in the way he expected.
The post, originally meant to reflect on how far they'd come, quickly turned into a comedy routine thanks to South African netizens. One friend, affectionately known as “Tall,” became the focal point of all the jokes. It seems his nickname might not have aged as gracefully as the rest of the crew.
From Towering to… Not So Much
The video went viral in no time, with users reminiscing about their own high school glory days while laughing at Tall's predicament. As the comments poured in, it became clear that many people couldn't resist pointing out the irony of his current stature. Some were downright ruthless, while others kept it playful, but everyone agreed: Tall's nickname had officially become a running gag.

One user joked, "Last I checked, Tall wasn't exactly towering over anyone anymore!" Another chimed in with, "Guess he shrunk faster than my bank account!" Despite the playful jabs, there was an undeniable sense of camaraderie in the thread. People weren't just laughing at Tall—they were celebrating the joy of friendships that stand the test of time.
@king_vodloza’s post reminded me of how much friends can change over the years. Nicknames that once fit perfectly may no longer make sense, but that's part of the beauty of growing older together.

Mzansi users couldn't resist getting in on the action. One commenter, @Bee17, hilariously quipped, "I knew we all thought Tall was just one of the community members 🤣." Meanwhile, @MaKamo added a cryptic twist that had everyone in stitches: "Bathong I thought Tall…" leaving the rest to the imagination.
Others took the humor to the next level. @user2922483250799 joked, "I thought I’d see Tall rocking a dress," while @user4497322012806 dropped some isiZulu wisdom: "Tall, why emfutshane ngku? 🫣🫣🫣" Translation: "Why is Tall so short now?"
Not everyone was amused, though. @Andiswa Pita expressed disappointment, saying, "I don’t know why, but Tall kinda disappointed something 😩🥺." Even @Thobani got emotional: "So Tall is no longer Tall anymore 😭." But the grand finale came from @Sesi anonymous, who summed it up perfectly: "Tall is no longer tall, he caught up 😅." Classic!
