RE: What do DR and Haiti have in common?

Haitians and Dominicans are loud people.

Haitians and Dominicans love platanos. They can make anything with platano.

Haitians love to tell jokes or tell a (blag) just like dominicans.

Haitians and Dominicans love to overcharge white people for their products.

Back home haitians love to overcharge the diaspora.

Haitians and dominicans are very colorful when it coems to their houses.

Haitians and dominicans knows how to make something out of nothing.

I am sure there are others...But i will list some haitian only things and dominicans can tell me where they differ.

Haitians do not believe in a party without rum and beer. Preferably heineken in the states.

Haitians have a DOCTORATE degree in whooping their kids ass. There's the (cinturone) the thick leather belt. When they don't have a belt, anything that's in the area is legible for being used for an ass beaten. Not to mention, you must kneel.

Haitian parents believe School and Church are only two things kids should want.

Haitians are passionate about dominoes. Very loud and competitive.

Haitians in haiti drive like maniacs and i have pictures to show what they do when it comes to driving.

Haitians love cars made by toyota, and back in the day it was an Isuzu trooper.

Haitians love to lie about how much money they have. They always say they are broke, when you know that they have mad money.

Haitian men love thick women.

Haitian women dates men with pockets, especially the mullatos.

Haitians LOVE KOMPA and they will tear the dance floor if you play kompa or merengue.

Haitians are very family oriented.

Thanks, buenoha. I think a thread like this will be quite entertaining and educational for both people.

Thanks, buenoha. I think a thread like this will be quite entertaining and educational for both people. Almost all the extras are applied here, Anonymous, specially the beating the kids part, sans the kneeling, the Toyota part, because, if you have any other car besides a Toyota or Honda, you'll have a VERY hard time looking for parts if it's in need of repairs all of a sudden, and the family part. Also, we're very bad drivers, so much so that I more often than not find myself telling my foreign friends that, if they ever want to get training for driving a F-1 car, they only need to hit the roads over here for practice.

Hi guys, I'd like to know from people that know both cultures, which things the Dominican Republic has in common with Haiti? Please do not use this thread for racist remarks nor for posting your day-to-day frustrations. Let's keep it cool.

That actually is a start cibaeno There is the food, though each is unique at the end of the day. Music to some extent, compas and merengue are quite similar. We have tap taps and guaguas. We have taximotos and motoconchos and we share tied history, forever intertwined. Any others care to add?
