What did I just buy...?

[the gorgon]

A friend was at the airport duty free shop where a very loud Dominican was buying perfume for his novia. He kept on saying he was looking for "Yumbo" and my friend could not work out what he meant until he finally swooped on the Jean-Paul Gaultier.

a very loud Dominican?

a very loud Dominican?

Do they really exist? Or is that just hearsay?

Do they really exist? Or is that just hearsay?

my question, exactly. i have also heard of unicorns, and Sasquatch, but a loud Dominican?

Or perhaps una Yumba?

I think they'd say una yumbo as it's una cerveza or una botella you're asking for.

It gets even weirder because it's spelled jumbo, but you never hear it pronounced that way.

You gotta love Dominican Spanish.

:ermm:.....That's why I added the disclaimer.
:classic:
