You Know You're Haitian When . . .
1)Your parents still put you a genou even though you are 19. 2)You use bed sheets as window curtains. 3)You've eaten rice within the past 3 days. 4)You eat too much chicken, diri kole, or diri a djon djon 5)Your living room couches are covered with plastic. 6)You try to bargain your way out of everything and anywhere even in department stores. 7)You point at things and people with your lips.
8)You just don't feel fresh until you've drenched yourself in "Bien Etre" 9)You have three sets of china: odd, even, and miss-matched. 10)Maggi, Matouk's/Tabasco, & tomato paste are cooking essentials. 11)If someone says that the party starts at 8pm, then you know not to show up until 11PM! 12)The weakest old woman can strike fear into your heart with just one look.
13)Deep fried pork (griot) is one of your favorite dishes. 14)Yawning more often indicates hunger than fatigue. 15)All soda is called COLA and all chewing gum is called CHICKLETS. 16)You refuse to throw out old grease. So that everything you fry has that taste of fried fish, chicken, bannan pese, or griot. 17)The US is only made up of three cities: Miami, NY, and Boston. 18)You have either Jean or Marie placed somewhere in your name and you know someone named Roro, Fanfan, Pouchon or Marie Rose.
19)When you hear (pssssssssst), you know that someone is trying to get your attention. 20)You go to work as though you were dressed for church, you go to church as if you were dressed for a wedding, and you go to a wedding as if you were dressed to meet Queen Elizabeth 21)You dip bread in your coffee, hot chocolate, and even certain kinds of liquor (Kremas). 22)Your furniture is too big for your house. 23)You're proud to be Haitian :)))
none of these jokes are meant to be disrepectful in ANY way. i myself am of Haitian descent so this was all in good, innocent fun.
