You are one of the best on FR in my book. My wife is Italian and she cracks up when I tell her stories about my WASP self and my brother calling each other Fredo when we were young.
Thanks man.
And that’s funny. :)
I tease the rest of my family who left staten island for NJ and Westchester and said they try to act more like WASPs now than WOPs :)
It’s a compliment. If it was true.
But they’re WOPs and always will be. At least I’m proud to show it :)
They’re all 2nd generation just like me but they try too act like their ancestors came off the Mayflower :)
Now my NIECES and NEPHEWS, only a few have Italian looks and none could be picked out of a lineup as WOPs.
I could be picked out of a lineup as a WOP in the dark :)
