You're Sicilian when....



  Io, come tanti altri Siculi come me, mi ci ritrovo in pieno....che ne dite?

leggerlo mi ha fatto sorridere..
---------------------------
I received it from a friend and I enjoyed it because it's a faithful portrait of the way we, Siculi, are:
at least, I smiled reading it:

You are Sicilian when/if

  •  although you are unemplyed and don't have money, you offer coffe to your friends
  • you don't have any job, but you drive around with your luxury car
  • if, although you don't have time, you find it for a smile
  • if, when you meet another Sicilian aroad, you talk to him as a very good old friend
  • if you always complains about your town, but abroad you describe it as one of the seven wonders
  • if you LOVE with passion
  • if you're jelous of the people who are important to you
  • when you "parri cu tutti" ....talk with everybody
  • if you're proud when you talk about Peppino Impastato, Paolo Borsellino and Giovanni Falcone
  • if you meet with your family for the Sunday lunch and you start at 3.oo pm and finish at 6.oo pm
  • if, at least once in your life, you thought to change things
  • when you play TOMBOLA(Bingo) and after the first number you exclaimed: Ambo!
  • when you say that you're not a touchy person , but you don't like when others criticize you
  • when you live abroad but you say that "ca nun ci moru!" that is you will not die there
  • when , living in the north,once a day you feel nostalgic about Sicily and its people
  • when, after living in  MIlan for five years, you still don't lose your wonderful Sicilian accent and people spoil at you
  • if , living abroad, once a month, you receive a box full of the Sicilian specialities
