I received this from a Latino friend of mine:
WHY LATINOS CAN'T BE TERRORISTS
1. 8:45 AM is too early for us to be awake.
2. We are always late therefore we would have missed all 4 flights.
3. Pretty/handsome people on the plane distract us.
4. We would talk loudly and bring attention to ourselves.
5. With food and drinks on the plane, we would forget why we're there.
6. We talk with our hands, therefore we would have to put our weapons down.
7. We would ALL want to fly the plane.
8. 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 MY FAVORITE
10. We would have put our country's flag on the windshield.
ARE YOU A LATINO? HOW CAN YOU TELL FOR SURE?
1) If you have ever been hit by a "Chancleta"...(Flipflip)"
2) If you grew up scared by something called El Cucuy or La Llorona..(latino boogie man).
3) If others tell you to stop screaming when you are really 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 to point something out.
6) If you constantly refer to cereal as "con fleys."
7) 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.
9) If you use "manteca" instead of olive oil and can't figure out why your nalgas are getting bigger.
10) If you are in a five passenger car with seven people in it and a person is shouting "subanse, todavia caben mas! (get in, a couple more still fit)"
11) If whenever you feel under the weather, you compulsively dab on some
"Vic's vapor rub" all over your pecho and inside your nostrils.
12) Your mom packs your "lonche(lunch)" every day even though you've just turned thirty-two.
13) 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's store."
