Italians are...potent?

So I asked thesaurus.com for some words for potent (because "italians are potent" sounds wierd...). this is what it gave me: boiled down, condensed, telescoped, thick, stuffed and lustful. Thanks thesaurus.com, I think I'll stick with potent.
I suppose condenced could also work. Basically Italians are like concentrated juice. Super strong on its own, but if you add dilute them a bit, it works out perfectly. So why are Italians telescoped you ask? Why are they thick? Why are they stuffed and boiled down? aaaahahha okay, last time I use thesaurus.com. It's because "medium" doesn't exsist for them.  Which makes PERFECT sence, and you guys know EXACTLY what I'm talking about, yes?
Let me give some examples:
Showers: they don't shower every day like us, but when they do take showers they take longgggg showers.
Coffee: they don't drink a big cup of watery coffee like us, but instead a TINY cup of SUPAA stong coffee.
Soccer: playing soccer for fun doesn't exist, you play it for real and you're super good, or you don't play at all.
Food: decent food doesn't exsist. it's either insane delicious...or yeah, that's your only option.
Diets: the Italian women do this thing where for like a month they eat whatever, then for a month their on a strict diet and "work out" at the gym (see gym post). it's super wierd.
Snacking: they don't snack at all, but instead eat a bunch at meals.

  1. This is a very interesting observation, and thanks for a vocabulary lesson. It's interesting how a description of people can be distilled down to a single word.
