Eye-Italian
Why do Italians hate Jehovah's Witnesses? Do you know why most men from Italy are named
Tony? You know you're Italian when . . . . You
can bench press 325 pounds, You carry your lunch in a produce bag because
you can't fit Your mechanic, plumber, electrician, accountant, You have at least 5 cousins living in the
same town or on the same block.. You are on a first name basis with at least 8 banquet hall owners. You only get one good shave from a disposable razor.
If someone in your family grows beyond
5' 9", There were more than 28 people in your bridal party. You netted more than $50,000 on your first communion. . . . . . . And you REALLY, REALLY know you're Italian when . . Your grandfather had a fig tree. You eat Sunday dinner at 2:00. Christmas Eve . . . only fish. Your mom's meatballs are the best.
You've been hit with a wooden spoon or had a shoe thrown at you. Clear plastic covers on all the furniture. You know how to pronounce "manicotti" and "mozzarella." You fight over whether it's called "sauce" or "gravy." You've called someone a "mamaluke." And you understand "bada bing". |
