Never understood: Why do Brazilians only have first names?


All Brazilians have full names is just that some of them want to only be know by their nicknames kinda like Madonna, Prince and Pink.

Oh, I always assumed that was the norm, with so many of them only going by their first/nick name

The only Brazilian that I can think of that alway uses his full name is Leandro Barbosa who now plays for the Indiana Pacers but was at his best when he played for the Phoenix Suns.

I wouldn't say racist, but mostly just a little more cautious. In my experience black people are more violent. I know plenty of black people who aren't that way at all, but its just my experience. In elementary and high school, black people would pick on me.

Black people are more intimidating anyway.


What he said especially if you live in a area where you know this is true most of the time. Always put up a caution flag -_-

Not at all, I don't know how a person can generalize an entire people group to a negative stereotype.

yes
i hate gypsy/romanies
they are like the hyenas of the humans
otherwise, no...


I'm Romanian, and that's a pretty fucked up thing to say. 



I was walking down along the street and I heard this voice saying, "Good evening, Mr. Dowd." Well, I turned around and here was this big six-foot rabbit leaning up against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that because when you've lived in a town as long as I've lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name.
