Please tell me you have that musical Trinidadian accent and not the Indian accent which no one can really listen to and keep a straight face at the same time :D
Lol! Nah it's strictly Trinidadian. I have never been anywhere near India. You have actually heard someone with our accent before? And I have actually heard it being described as sing-song before.

I doubt she would have the Indian accent:D
Haha do you speak as badly as the majority of our population? :D I think I am somewhere in between bad and not so bad.

I have Italian pizza sauce like everyone else.

I think the entire question here is almost nonsensical. Because given that all blood can pretty much be traced back to the plains of Ethiopia, the question isn't about whether someone has Italian blood or not. The question is about what you personally define as a divider to exclude other people from your select groupings.

This is a question of exclusivity, not inclusivity.

Of course.

But what, didn't work out for ya in Italy?
You're so dumb... you live in America, full of Sicilians who had to run away from the problems of poverty and unemployment. Such was the case with my family. They moved to Egypt and did very well for themselves but then war broke out and they fled to Australia leaving behind all their hard work in Egypt.

So now i'm here.

Yes, you're right. I'm so dumb.

But hey, at least I understand how an economy works.

And what do you care, you're going to hell anyway.

you just listen to what some economist tells you, open a thread and write it claiming it to be your own ideas.

I don't like economists on television. They usually lie to the public and fall into the bull market trap CNBC loves to spew.

So no, I don't regurgitate what economists tell me. But you still don't know shit about economics and will still go to hell.

:lol: you're just looking for excuses to be an arse



yeah speak it too (congratulate me on that too Andy) but i've gotta say that its less common for Italians born in foreign countries to speak it. In Melbourne there are tons of Greeks (the second most Greek populated city in the world to Athens), Russians, Croatians etc. and they all seem to have more of a sense of nationalistic pride than Italians here. I mean, they all eat the same food, play/watch the same sport, but the parents don't stress things like language and "being italian".
cant help but i agree it angers me to hear people say i am italian and not speak it or no anything about it besides that we make pizza and pasta lol.

i can speak it fluently and yes andy if u want to congratulate me on that u may as i am proud of my heritage. lol:rulz:

anth are u sicilian?
