It's a trini thing

Was unable to post due to the kids and myself being really sick. So I had a lot of time to think about this post. So here goes, sort of humourous. Hope you enjoy!
It's a trini thing:
1.to leave home late for work/school and want the taxi/maxi to speed/ drive recklessly to reach on time and be vex (swell the mouth/ pout, cuss/use obscene) if the driver don't.
2. for males to call women according to their ethnicity- reds, darkie, dougla, spanish...
3. to eat a snack ....then lick the inside of the wrapper.
4. for parents to call their children 'mother' and 'fadder' instead of the other way around.
5. to drink and 'lime'(hang out).....especially when a storm looms, many say 'God is a trini', so an imminent natural disaster is an occasion to celebrate. The rumshops, bars, pubs are full at those times.
6. to dig your nose anywhere!
7. for maxi touts to call women over 30 'tantie', 'moms', etc. General terms include 'small man' (a little boy), 'family', grannie, pops, grandpa etc.
Remember not all and every trinbagonian will/ have done these things listed above. These are just some quirky habits of some folks who live in tnt, not all.
