You know you’re Mexican if …

1. Your whole family goes to the laundromat.
2. You grow corn in your garden.
3. You have a birthday party for your son or daughter and you invite more adults than children.
4. You beep your horn instead of ringing the doorbell.
5. You go to McDonald’s or Burger King and you bring your own salsa and jalapeños.
6. You took Spanish in high school for an easy A and got a C.
7. You take your family on un paseo through the car wash and tell them that the ride is called “The Tidal Wave.”
8. You’re married, but your mother still hits you in public.
9. The police pull you over and you pretend not to speak English.
10. You have a statue of la Virgen in a half-buried bathtub in your front lawn.
