February 6, 200422 yr If you have ever been hit by a "Chancleta. " If you grew up scared by something called "El Cuco" If others tell you to stop screaming when you are really just talking. If you light a candle to the Virgin Mary on the night before your big test If you use your lips to point something out. If you constantly refer to cereal as "con fleys". If your mother yells at the top of her lungs to call you for dinner, even if it's a one bedroom apartment. If you can dance merengue, cumbia, or salsa without music. If you use "margarina" instead of olive oil and can't figure out why your butt is getting bigger. If you are in a five passenger car with seven people in it and a person is shouting "subanse, todavia caben!" If whenever you feel under the weather, you compulsively dab on some "vapor rub" all over your chest and inside your nostrils. Your mom packs your "lonchera" every day even though you've just turned thirty-two. If you call the North Americans "gringos", including Canadians, and call all Asian people "chinos" or "chinitos". AND you call the corner store "the chinito store" If your favorite heroes were "El Chapulin Colorado" or "Cantinflas". If you don't need any explanations, you know you are truly a Latino!
