You know you're Romanian when....

You know those Facebook groups "You know you're this or you've done that when..." - well there is one for Romania as well! Here are, in my opinion, the "best of"s of that group (the wordings belong to the author, Adrian Popescu):

You know you're Romanian when...

...Everything you eat is savored in garlic and onions.
...You are standing next to the two largest suitcases at the airport.
...You talk for an hour at the front door when leaving someone's house.
...You can fit 10 people into a Dacia.
...Your mom tells you you're too skinny even though your 30 pounds overweight.
...Your dad ever butchered a pig or lamb. [or a chicken for that matter]
...Your mom ever chased you with a rolling pin or a broom telling you to stop so that she could hit you. [I couldnt say that's true for me but it's a funny one!]
...You don't use measuring cups when cooking.
...If you don't live at home, when your parents call, they ask if you've eaten, even if it's midnight.
...Your parents don't realize phone connections to foreign countries have improved in the last two decades, and still scream at the top of their lungs when making foreign calls.
...Your parents brew their own wine and ţuică
...You say "La Mulţi Ani" for every holiday.
