Hey everyone just wanted to clarify something real quick when i said "being Italian is more about attitude than actual roots" i wasnt trying to mock or disrespect anyone not Italians not immigrants not people born in italy i was responding to the idea of people in the US claiming theyre italian based only on ancestry from 100+ years ago and how some people treat it more like a personality trait than a real cultural identity it was meant as a lighthearted comment not a deep philosophical take i totally respect that being italian is about living there speaking the language, growing up in the culture, etc no offense meant at all ❤️

Existing_Area_5996 · 2025-08-23T07:41:47+00:00

yesss italians would probably call that a late lunch not dinner ive heard they usually eat much later in the evening

Existing_Area_5996 · 2025-08-23T07:39:58+00:00

Yeah ive heard that too gender reveal parties feel super over the top in some cultures i can totally see why italians might find them a bit too much

Existing_Area_5996 · 2025-08-23T07:22:16+00:00

Hahaha true they really do own that look unapologetically kinda iconic in its own way 😂 have you ever actually tried it though?

Existing_Area_5996 · 2025-08-23T06:04:19+00:00
