TERRORISMO LATINO


No sólo en español podemos encontrar rasgos tan marcados de nuestro entorno latinoamericano. Para los que pueden entender el idioma inglés, aquí les presento algunas características que nos delatarían si pensásemos en algún momento meternos a terroristas:


----- WHY LATIN PEOPLE CAN'T BE TERRORISTS............

1. 8:45 am is way too early for us to be up.

2. Since we're always late, we would have missed all 4 flights at the airport.

3. Pretty people on the plane would distract us.

4. We would talk loudly and always bring too much attention to ourselves.

5. With food and drinks on the plane we're thinking party! We would forget why we were there. 6. We talk with our hands, so we would have to put the weapons down to have a conversation. 7. We would ALL want to fly the plane.

8. Then we would argue and start a fight in the plane.

9. We can't keep a secret, we would have told everyone a week before doing it. AND THE BEST ONE.....

10. We would have to put each of our country's flag on the windshield.

------ARE YOU LATIN?-------


See if you have some Latin blood in you.

1) If you have ever been hit by your mom or your girl with a "Chancleta" (a flip-flop shoe)

2) If you grew up scared by something called "El Coco" y or "La Llorona". (ugly/scary thing that makes you cry)

3) If others tell you to stop screaming when you are really only just talking.

4) If you light a candle to the Virgin Mary on the night before your big test.

5) If you use your chin or your mouth to point at things.

6) If you refer to the morning cereal as "con fleys." (Korn Flakes)

7) If your mother yells "M'ijo" at the top of her lungs to call you for dinner, even if it's a one bedroom apartment.

8) If you can still dance salsa, or merengue without the music.

9) If you use "manteca" (lard) instead of olive oil and can't figure out why your "nalgas" (buns) are getting sooo big.

10) If you're the 7th passenger in a 5 person car, and you still shout "súbanse, cabe uno mas!" (get in, we can fit one more!)

11) If whenever you feel the start of any slight illness, you instinctively smear "Vick's Vapo-Rub" all over your "pecho" (chest) and inside your "nariz" (nose).

12) Your mom packs your "lonche" every day even though you've just turned thirty-four.

13) If you have been calling all North Americans "Gringos", all Asians "Chinitos" (little Chinamen) and you refer to the corner store as "El Chino." 14) If you fall in the river and they have to call a tow truck to pull you out because of the jewelry. 15) If your idea of English as a second language is calling the roof - "el rufo", the yard - "la yarda", and the carpet - "la carpeta".


If you have answered yes to 4 of the questions then We Know You Are Latin!
