So true. Especially when it comes to the coming home late part, then comes the nonstop yelling. Quite common in most Portuguese houses.

Viva o sotaque de S. Miguel... :D para nós, os continentais, na maior parte do tempo são necessárias legendas, mas é um sotaque fabuloso. Um abraço do Porto

[@joseleal53]

So, so true I can relate to Mike's details of his parents and of me growing up in a Portuguese home back in the 70s in Ludlow, Massachusetts (USA) ... instead of a vassoura, colher de pau ou chinelo, my dad hit me with the long iron tube of a vacuum cleaner (I had managed to outrun him for a while until he discovered me hiding somewhere dark in the basement - a scary episode I will never forget, I shit you not). Truly, I feel blessed to have grown up in a tight Portuguese community "where everybody knew your name" ... thanks Mike Rita for making me laugh at myself in the good sense!🇵🇹😊🇺🇸

[@kellydesilva6733]

I agree to the subtitles. I am part Portuguese but I am 4th generation. My parents dont speak the language but my grandmothers generation did sometimes but only when they were talking about something they did not want us to hear. They spoke English as their first language and did not even have an accent.

[@js3617]

Omg this was SO funny. I'm watching this on Natal with my Tia and primos and what a laugh we had. It's unfortunate the rude man in the audience didn't know how to take a joke nor did any research of who he was going to see. My family and I would kill and spend big bucks to be able to see you. We've been trying to get tickets for various PT comedians when they come around but they ALL sell out so fast. I hope you come to southern CT one day, I know for a fact you'd sell out and everyone would appreciate your visit SO much. In my experience, having the SAME upbringing like yours and im sure like a lot of the ppl who go to your shows, as ridic and different PT parents and ppl can be, one thing they DO like to do generally is laugh and ARE super willing to make fun of themselves. An example is what I call the "hurt syndrome". In my family, if u get hurt, they'll def all flock to help. But not BEFORE calling u stupid, saying u deserved it and obv had what's coming LOL. While growing up Portuguese in the US and Canada can be tough, I'm def proud to have such a rich culture and close family and the experiences I do. I appreciate it much more now now being in my mid 20s tho. Good luck to you!

I,m not Portuguese but I am Catholic . I belonged to Italian Catholic churches. Not Italian either but I can identify with everything he's saying 😂

[@ldfreitas9437]

I don't know about Toronto, but I do know about California. My Catholic school had all sorts of people: Irish, Italian, and Portuguese. So, we all got along. We had to wear uniforms and walk home past the public school nearby, so it was all for one and one for all when they made fun of us for wearing uniforms.

Brancas casas caiadas Que ao sol brando de Outono Se erguem, testemunhas do tempo, De um passado sem retorno. Suas fachadas imóveis De centenárias vivências, Seu ar inextirpável, Sua misteriosa indeiscência, Que segredos encerra Desta minha bela terra. Terra de terra E da gente dela, Que é sua alma. Terra de vinhas, De íngremes colinas Terra de rios cintilando E de lezírias ondeando. Terra de invicto povo Que os braços jamais cruzou. Armado apenas de sua bravura Cingido dela lutou. Esta terra em que nasci, A mesma onde morrerei, Que amo de lés-a-lés, A ela presa fiquei. Esta minha terra amada De gente simples e leal. Esta terra abençoada A que chamaram Portugal!

[@MiggyCR]

I live close by Toronto in the Mississauga region and there's a huge Portuguese population where I live and I could say there's about 11 Portuguese people in my that would be in my class we could always make fun of the people that weren't Portuguese but then the Portuguese people would turn on each other and make fun of each other if you weren't from the mainland but then obviously me my family being from the Azores to be like at least we have more culture than you it was funny and every non Portuguese person would never get the joke
