You know your Latino if: You have ever been hit by a chancla. * You can play any sport wearing chanclas. * You grew up scared by something called "El Cucuy." * Others tell you to stop screaming when you are really just talking, * You use your lips to point something out. * You constantly refer to cereal as "con fleis." * Your mother yells at the top of her lungs to call you to dinner even if it's a one bedroom apartment. You can dance ranchera, cumbia, or salsa without music. * You call your sneakers "tenees." * You have at least thirty cousins. * You can't imagine anyone NOT liking spicy food. You are in a 5-passenger car with 7 people in it and a person shouting, "SUBANSE, TODAVIA CABEN!" * Tamales, champurrado, posole y menudo are must haves on Thanksgiving. * There is more Tequila than punch at little Juanito's birthday party. * There is at least one member in your family named Maria, Guadalupe, Juan, Jose, or Jesus. ***** You swear "Choco Mil" is the same as Slim Fast and try to lose weight by drinking it. You have a drunk uncle/aunt. * You not only know who Don Francisco from Sabado Gigante* is, but you tell people he's your tio. You have ever had to tell your kid not to walk the floor barefoot or they'll catch a cold. ***** You go to a wedding or Quinceanera, gossip about how bad the comida is, but be the first one to take a plato to go. You have a bottle of Tapatio in your purse or back pocket. Your cousins are delinquets/hootchies. * You have a chola in you barrio named "La Flaca" who's bigger than a house. You know a chola named "La Shy Girl" who is loud and obnoxious. You need to point out how much something you just bought cost. * You have a bottle of Bacardi or Tequila in your house right now. You're laughing right now because some of these things have actually happened to YOUR [self]! ********************** You're proud to be Latino and you pass these jokes on to all your Latino friends.*
