On October 23, 2015 the queen of the broken heart, Adele returned from obscurity. After two years of radio silence, she blessed ears around the world with her new single Hello. Unless you were in a coma for the past two weeks (sorry about that), you cannot have escaped the song. It’s everywhere.
With the madness surrounding the song, people have also got a bit creative (or perhaps just cruel). The #HelloChallenge has appeared in Twitter land: people send Hello lyrics to their unsuspecting exes and screenshot their results for Twitter. South African have caught on to the wave, and the results are, well, epic:

Hope Adele’s appreciated the free publicity!
One thing is clear, we had a good laugh finding these.
