Hakuna Matata
The Lion KingI don’t give a fuck - Disney’s old classic version.
I was wearing my bracelet which has 'HAKUNA MATATA' engraved into it when I went with my mum to take my sister to her Ballet class. One of the mum's of the other girls' came up to me and complimented me on the bracelet, this is how the conversation went.
- The Mum: That bracelet is really lovely, is it meant to be the thing you strum a guitar with?
- Me: Yeah, a guitar pick. I got Hakuna Matata engraved on it with the paw print. I love it.
- The Mum: Now what does this 'Hakuna Matata' mean? Is it latin?
- Me: Urm...no...it's African. I think it's Swahili.
- The Mum: Oh. So what does it mean?
- Me: It means no worries.
- Me: For the rest of your days.
- The Mum: *waits for me to elaborate*
- Me: It's a problem-free.
- Me: Philosophy.
- Me: Hakuna Matata...it's from The Lion King.
- The Mum: Oh, is that a TV show?
- Me: It's a Disney Movie. It's my favourite movie ever.
- The Mum: I've never heard of it.
- MY MUM STOOD ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS WOMAN GIGGLING UNDER HER BREATH AT THE FRUSTRATION ON MY FACE WHO DOESN'T KNOW THE LION KING OR HAKUNA MATATA OR WHAT YOU CALL THE THING YOU STRUM A GUITAR WITH THIS WOMAN NEARLY GAVE ME A ANEURYSM
