O' BRNDS

YOU KNOW YOU ARE BRAZILIAN WHEN: You think American bathing suits are enormous; You are the loudest person in the room; You dress up to go to the supermarket; You are too friendly; You like Guarana better than Coke; You own Havaianas in every color imaginable; Your entire family goes to grandma’s house on Sundays for a big family get together, even when you guys see each other everyday; You would ……rather die than see Argentina beat Brazil in soccer; BBQ means steak, sausage, chicken wings, pork, rice, farofa, sauce and beer; You cried when Brazil lost the world cup; You go to a birthday party and you can’t leave until you take a piece of cake home; You eat rice and beans at least 7 days a week; You are so used to corruption that nothing surprises you anymore; You have a sense of fashion; You still argue Pele is better than Maradona; You know what it’s like to buy liquor without an ID; You make friends everywhere you go; You travel to Brazil and instead of taking a suitcase with all your stuff, you take presents for the entire family, the dog, the neighbor, not to mention the old/used clothes that you take just in case someone needs it; You take soccer too seriously; Your breakfast consists of milk and coffee, bread with butter and a piece of cake; You take pictures everywhere you go; Your favorite drink is Caipirinha; You spend an entire day at the beach; You know how to party, and if the party isn’t over after 5am, it’s not a party!
