I know an Asian guy who took the nickname “Joey” because he grew up in a mostly Italian neighborhood.
Some of you know him too. LOL
“Joey is a kangaroo”
Is this an Italian phrase? or a derogatory italian comment?
Sorry, I’m not up on my ‘stereotype’ lingo.
What does it mean? Seriously.

Had to go yesterday.
A “joey” is an (English language) term for a baby kangaroo.
It doesn’t really go any deeper than that…
It would be funny if I started some new derogatory word for Italians.
benson…stop by the OT on Wednesday and I’ll have a tribute to “being italian” for you to make up for all the abuse you take!!!!!
yes, my apologies for not specifying which caputo’s made my stomach go caputo. it was caputo’s deli, not caputo’s bakery.
RE: the other Caputo’s, It has been so sad, since the owners wife passed away, they have gone a bit downhill. Your Mozz might have had unsalted tears in it.
FYI, Caputo’s bakery (Court and Sackett) is not the same place or owner as Caputo’s specialty deli (Court and Third Place) where you would get cheese.

Joe, you’ve made my day!
I’m assuming with a name like Joe you’re I-Talian.
Can I call you Joey?
