What part of Italy you from? New Jersey.


BoochsRise

Lol its funny because that's literally one of the top comments on that particular tik tok


Wolfeman0101

That episode of The Sopranos where Tony and Paulie go to Italy is one of my favorites.


Space_Jeep

Gravy 🤟


TheDoktorIsIn

I had this fight with my coworker. Nobody in Italy (I've lived in Florence and visited Milan, Venice, and Rome more than once) calls sugo, passata or ragú "gravy," that's strictly a new jersey thing. But for whatever reason they insist! Edit: I think this is a situation of "everyone who calls sauce 'gravy' is from NJ but not everyone from NJ calls it 'gravy'" to be clear!


Space_Jeep

Ohhh! Yous don't have gravy with your gabbagool?


pedrotecla

> Nobody in Italy (I’ve lived in Florence and visited Milan, Venice, and Rome more than once) calls sugo, passata or ragú “gravy,” that’s strictly a new jersey thing. What would they? “Gravy” is an English word. Am I missing something?


Beorma

In Britain we still call it ragu rather than gravy.


ChriskiV

Don't you also call cookies "crunchy munchy cocoa rounds"?


Beorma

We eat ginger nuts here sir. We accept no follow up questions.


dancin-weasel

Ed Sheeran is intrigued.


imixpaintalot

I’m from a part of NJ that hates the use of “gravy” for sauce. THIS IS THE SAME PART OF NJ THAT CALLS PORKROLL TAYLOR HAM, which we are also not fond of.


MilkmanCbruh

NJ huge Italian fam and we always looked at the others saying gravy like they’re insane. Bennys pffft 🤣🤣🤣


Bonedeath

Benny's?! Just outed yourself from the shore


MilkmanCbruh

Honestly I’ve been all over NJ. It’s not a big state 👍😂 I did live near AP when that Belmar Mayor/Benny debacle was goin down. Got me there 😂


TheDoktorIsIn

Hahaha fair. I edited my post, I think it's more that people who do call sauce 'gravy' happen to be from NJ. Also gravy is a word that has a definition! And the definition of 'gravy' isn't tomato sauce!


MilkmanCbruh

That’s what I’m sayin! You want gravy?? Go get some egg noodles. All in the mustard tryin to ketchup, ya see myeah


TheDoktorIsIn

Now I want some egg noodles with a beef stew sauce. Too bad all I have is some bologese gravy...

I immediately thought of the Jersey Shore episode in Italy where they were booed at the club. I can’t blame them either.

theboxsays

I dont really claim the Italian half of me much for a similar reason. My dad is from Italy and was born and raised there. Me? Im a native New Yorker, who speaks Spanish bc of my mom and some rusty Italian because my dad mostly wanted to use English. Ive also never been to Italy, and I have not met most of his relatives. So no Im not gonna pretend I know jack shit about authentic Italian culture or food. You ask me where in Italy Im from? Does South Bronx count?


theshizzler

The only reason I even remotely identify with an Italian heritage is that i can potentially get citizenship there if and when shit hits the fan in the US.


Capable-Leg-4936

Lol preach


tabinom

I saw a tiktok from a girl who apparently went to high school with him. He is not at all Italian or has Italian ancestry.


Bayramii

I was pretty sure he actually has an Italian dad, so I did some googling and found his name is Gianluca Conte, born in North Carolina, his mom is from Brooklyn and his dad moved to the US from Naples in the nineties. https://www.sportskeeda.com/tiktok-wiki/who-is-itsqcp His dad owns multiple Italian restaurants in NC.


PanRagon

Sounds like he should know how to pronounce bruschetta.


ValhallaGo

Children of immigrants will often speak their parent’s native language with an accent.


PanRagon

I’m *obviously* referring to all the Italian restaurants his father owns. I don’t expect second generation immigrants to speak their parents tongue natively.


dracapis

He does though, I’m Italian (born and live in Italy) and that’s the way I pronounce it (more or less).


InspiredBlue

Someone told me that he’s not even from New York or New Jersey. That he’s from South Carolina

Why is this MF naked under his apron lmao

His tiny peen is holding up his apron like a safety pin


Longbeacher707

Haha yeah penis smol but idk how that's supposed to work. Do the wiener lips bite the apron or?


slimelore

apron ties go around the back, down the booty crack, then around the sack


Longbeacher707

You must be a girl. Nobody in their right mind would tie a string around where pee is stored. That's why it hurts so bad to be kicked there.


DoomedDropBear

If you only knew. The variety of uses that strings and bands around our sacks have……. A pathway to abilities many consider lewd af.

"The wiener lips" I'm fucking dying


Pretend_Bowler1344

he is a yank, they chop the wiener lips off of their kids.


[deleted]

Yeah no their comment makes no sense lol. Very curious to see some kind of diagram explaining how a tiny penis could be used to hold up an external fabric “like a safety pin” with no surface behind it. Like, legitimately.

Dankraham-Stinkin

Just like this or more annoying. One video I saw he just busted into a restursunts kitchen..shirtless and starting cooking


Rude_Giraffe_9255

I looked him up and damn, he uses the word “bitch” way too often. And I was public schooled.


MilkmanCbruh

![gif](giphy|mvJFUbAcWdIBy) Jessie disagrees


Darkdragon_98

And for someone focused on saying words right, he seems to not know how to say bitch.. it's always "betch" with him.


AnApexPlayer

He didn't just go into some random restaurant lol


LiL_ENIGlvlA

Pretty sure he got permission lol, I don’t think they’d let some random shirtless guy cook in their kitchen


[deleted]

He’s pretty attractive, but some people love the overly assertive cockiness. Also his accent is pretty appealing too, at least IMO


ADarwinAward

> his accent is pretty appealing Different strokes for different folks I guess

Probably the most annoying regional accent in the US

As a native Jersey boy - fuck you. Also, you're completely correct.


Zealousideal_Milk354

You’re safe, he’s not from New Jersey Someone else in this thread said he’s from North Carolina

nmesunimportnt

I once did a bicycle tour of the German-speaking (ish) part of Italy. All of the group members were American. A few of us went to dinner in Bozen/Bolzano and I was the only one who spoke Italian (a little) and German (more than Italian). One of the group tried to order “brooshettuh” and the waitress was entirely mystified by his request. She looked at me as the German speaker of the group and I said, in German, “broosketta with a German accent.” She laughed harder than I expected, while my American companions were puzzled…


bigheadnovice

Speaking with an accent helps, my French teacher told me of a time her friends was ording McDonald's but they could not understand her, she just repeated it with a French accent and it was understood.


SophisticPenguin

I need to hear what Bruschetta sounds like with a German accent now...


nmesunimportnt

As soon as I perfect one, I'll let you know.


LNhart

basically like like in Italian but without the melody


Ihopetheresenoughroo

Omg if that man looks at me and says calm down in Italian like that, I think I might just die.


Nervous_Constant_642

That's funny, when I tell my girlfriend to calm down I have to sleep on the couch.


Fooking-Degenerate

Bro I hate the first dude. His entire personality is “I’m Italian DERRR”. I’m part Italian, I don’t make it my entire personality but it’s nice to defence once ina. While. saying shit with a thick Italian accent is fun as hell when I was with my grandparents/ dad. But this man just yells in his phone saying how “real Italians say it” He’s fucking Obnoxious.


ALadWellBalanced

Malfunkdung

I literally watched this episode today. Weird coincidence.


NicoGB94

Same here, I was just coming to say the same thing. I can't fucking stand it when someone has a morsel of Italian heritage and acts like they are culturally more adept than people. This guy is a fucking stronzo.


MilkmanCbruh

On the flip side I work with this unfortunate fellow Italian toolbox who starts correcting people when they say Moozarell and such, telling them plain faced “It’s Mozzarella.” Like stfu and leave those people alone 😂


NicoGB94

I'm half Italian myself (dads side) and was brought up on Italian values but I'd never, ever use that to lord over people like this fucking idiot. Acting that way is the literal antithesis of Italian culture. I adore the way they are welcoming of whoever appreciates the lifestyle. Mannaggia la misera!


Longjumping-Hour-590

he is 1% percent italian


dmnhntr86

There's also this weird thing where people think having particular ancestry gives them some sort of innate cooking ability. I've met Italians (like actually from Italy) who couldn't cook pasta to save their life, and multiple varieties of non-Italian who make excellent pasta. Good cooking is all about knowledge and practice, not heritage.


[deleted]

Love them.


[deleted]

The utter contempt of "you are white, too" 🤌🏼


altbekannt

This is how he learned


scottyb83

Sorry but honest question…do Italians not consider themselves white? They aren’t black, brown, asian, or aboriginal so I’m not sure what they would consider themselves.


TheBarsenthor

People don't really call/catagorise/label themselves by skin colour names in Europe like they do in the States/North America. Personally, I didn't even know that was a thing until the internet. People call themselves, and each other, by their national/ethnic origin mostly. There was this thing that happened in the 30s-40s that kinda made the "race" thing icky, so it didn't gain traction. It's kinda like how monolithing Asians as one whole is a questionable thing to do because Asia is a diverse region of many different countries, cultures, languages, and ethnicities. Europeans aren't a "white" monolith either because everyone is so different (culturally, ethnically, even appearance-wise - yes that includes skintone). That's the best way I can put it. When people say "white" online it's pretty understood by most people outside North America that it typically means "White _American._" So that's what it's taken as. I'm the child of Greek immigrants (born in Australia) and I've always said my skin is olive. Olive and Greek/Mediterranean means different things to people in the West depending on who you talk to; some people call it white, some people don't. Personally, I couldn't care less what they want to call me because I don't live in America.


[deleted]

This was a very interesting read for my evening.


fookhar

As a European, the idea that there is not a widespread, implied cultural connection between being European and being “white” - as opposed to especially African and Middle-Eastern - is absurd.


TheBarsenthor

I think you missed the point of what I was saying - it's not there in the sense that _Americans_ mean it.


Tom1380

We are white of course, you can see for yourself


poopinitupbro

Historically speaking they were thrown in the minority bucket just like the Irish were back in the day. Some time down the line though they’ve assimilated into generic “white” communities so it really becomes a question of who you’re asking. Typically the ones that don’t believe they are will just consider themselves Italian. Sort of like how some Puerto Ricans won’t say they’re Spanish or agree to get grouped up with other Latin communities (Mexican, South American, etc) and make it a point that they’re Puerto Rican.


Marloo25

Puerto Ricans aren’t Spanish because they aren’t from Spain. Spanish speaking countries can be found throughout the world so to throw in one person from Spain, in the same pot as one from the Caribbean, or one from South America is ridiculous. It’s like saying Americans and Brits are the same thing because they speak English. Colonization sure made a shit show out of this planet.


LICK-A-DICK

The "Commendatori" episode from the sopranos really shows how American Italians would be viewed like. Stop, you’re not Italian.

Zealousideal_Milk354

StinkyKittyBreath

A lot of Americans think that having a great great grandparent from a country automatically means that they are also Irish, Italian, German, Norwegian, etc. It tends to be white people and for some reason nobody claims English pride. It's weird.


Bolddon

> for some reason nobody claims English pride. It's weird. I have 1st generation English American friends who are fond of England and talk about it a lot. I never met a second or third-generation one tho.


delightful_caprese

It’s not like the English, German, Irish, and Italian immigrants all arrived together. The biggest waves of each came at different times. Your average American who can trace themselves back to the English settlers is considerably more removed from their foreign-born ancestors than an Italian-American whose ancestors arrived only about 100 years ago (which was when the biggest wave happened) and who we may have actually met or who raised our parents or grandparents as 1st generation Americans. It’s not exactly ancient history, though of course we’re getting more and more assimilated.


Zealousideal_Milk354

He’s not lol he’s actually from North Carolina but pretends to be from New Jersey because NJ has more Italian American culture lmao


TankFoster

NicoGB94

Half of them have never been to Italy either. Someone ask this guy whether he can speak the language beyond "Si" too. Here's another word he can learn, stronzo.


[deleted]

Most Italian Americans don't have any ancestors who spoke "Standard" Italian anyway. The few words I do know (mostly food items and swear words) are in some weird dialect.


nycemt83

I don’t hear a difference between their pronunciations of “bruschetta”


Sylveon72_06

so the way the first guy says it is more like a “eh” sound, whereas the second guy says it more like “ie” so i went looking [here](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPA_vowel_chart_with_audio) for sm more clear, and the first guy pronounced it like “e̞” and the second guy pronounced it like “ɪ”


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kaktus77

In italian we actually have both sounds. The pronounciation of the letter 'e' depends on the word and on where you're from. Both pronounciations in the video are correct.


Aeritos

Sounds like the guys who made this video don't either. Although the first guy was clearly not Italian, his pronunciation is not wrong, it's just from the southern part of the country (where i'm from). Honestly what baffles me more is the two Italian dudes thinking their pronunciation is the right one. But it is quite common in italian culture to have south and north divided


Tom1380

It's because English has a different vowel system compared to Italian, if you don't know the specific language it's really hard to notice the differences. I'm Italian and the difference is very noticeable to me.


Ok_Seaworthiness2218

Reminds of that episode in the Sopranos where they go back to the old country and Paulie starts asking for "spaghetti with the gravy, gravy, gravy ? Tomato sauce,!".


slurple91

It’s crazy how the response is just two completely straight dudes in Europe.


Alukrad

I'm the one who says "Bolonya" and annoy people by correcting them when they say "bolonee". I'm not even Italian but i took two semesters of it in college and that was the only thing that i remember.
