DUCK AND OTHER FAUNA (ANIMALS SOCIAL)

A Jipi, dark webbed

As of July, fierce feathered

Emilio Alberto Restrepo Baena

The Ducks were very important people in the life of the neighborhood. In the book of Antonio Mountain, "Colombian Social Fauna" as defined by cast, without invitation beings infiltrated all sites where there was something to do or to celebrate.

Our Ducks, in addition to the above, had other connotations. Pato was not only the cast, was also the sticky, even vague. The Duck was in all. One of the defining characteristics is opportunism. Always appears at the precise moment when the car is going to leave when opening the bottle of brandy ("booze?), Where they will serve the stew or fried food. On the contrary, always disappear as if by magic, at the time of collecting the fee ("make cow") or pay the bill. He seeks to compensate for their lack of economic support, trying to appear helpful, even servile. Duck is very acomedido, even jobs that others refuse to do: load boxes, turn wood fires, serving drinks, runs errands. Another feature is that Duck does not generate much rejection. Everyone acolyte, even encourage their existence, since it generally is a very good person, funny, talkative friendly and good friend. Without these features would be Pato. Perhaps, if long, to classify vulgar imitation of alligator, be much more repulsive and annoying. But no. The duck is fundamental to the fauna of the neighborhood.

Nobody like him for the dirty work on the rides, to parrot funny (do miserably ridiculous) when it is turned on (copetón or farrier), under the influence of marijuana (locked), or to serve merely as faithful company.

It was typical in camping at Limon in San Carlos or Cisneros, the Ducks (I remember now "Rust", a "straw" to "Jimmy") will appear with an average of almost empty liquor. "Here we bring the quota" burst out laughing and said we knew the whole trip was on our behalf. Needless to say, we drew them juice, (the "caught patch") and laugh threw the whole ride on their behalf. Speaking of "straw" memorable and sublime duck category, bragged (also said pipe or chicanió) for 2 years that he was going for the Navy, working on a Caribbean cruise. Then we realized that the famous ocean liner was one who came to Cartagena with a cargo of cacorros pairs, as a joke was said that more men of the ship were John Gabriel and Miguel Bose. So much for the honor came the poor straw. Should still have hot ears all that linguists have railed neighborhood of his fame and his sphincter.

A special variant of duck which was established in Bethlehem, "Mejia Loco" because you never defined exactly duck characteristics, vague, demented beggar. Pothead very young, youngest son of a wealthy family and pampered raised by aunts and sisters, never served at all socially useful. In good physical presence, he was a drinker, dancer, very talkative and party animal. From time to "blow" seems to be mad (be lightning, Toti, ran) and gave him to live on a street corner Granada. There was singing, talking to himself, fought against their hallucinations and good temper when he was told many stories, too reasonable and consistent to his supposed madness. So he pulled jokes; Polilo (another brilliant duck) gets that famous joke which is then extrapolated to other crazy Medellín: "Knew he asked Polilo eyebrows narrowed air of concern, that the" Loco Mejía "found it in a flask ? - dead!?. wondered distressed by the surprise announcement - no, shitting! replied, while laughing showing a huge grin in his teeth. That shot made a career and all the neighborhoods had one starring the fool of the sites themselves.

Returning to "Loco Mejía" stuck in every corner drink at all stew block, goteriaba in all dances. At first people to tolerate fear, then got used to it. One day, after his two sisters die, are miraculously relieved, shaved his beard of a prophet, bathed and went to live in his house 76. Today is a citizen "normal and healthy." Duck is no longer ...

Almost all ducks shared the stigma of "gotereros" (Experts on drinking at the expense of others). Even if they thought oil was taking drink and if it was free!. I remember once Absalom, known as the King of? Swim del Barrio, smelling a bottle of rum to l0 blocks, we did take a nasty tequila that Daddy brought a friend from Mexico. What we did not tell was that we had taken half the contents of the bottle and instead we had thrown "mípalo water to 25%" (read miaos urine or vulgar). Curiously, while we held the stomach dam overflowing laughter, he was convinced that we laughed at his jokes. Facilitated took the whole bottle, tied a binge of all devils, threw 3 consecutive days and the weeks turned to ask if we still had that little drink so good. ! Horror!.

Remaining peels them all day in the corner were also called by the ladies as Ducks. "There is going to spend you life doing nothing and talking shit all day with these Ducks" was the mother claim every one said he was "pa" the Office "(The store, the corner or the court). To graduate as a Duck, in this sense, it'd be downright lazy, not working or studying, getting up at noon, hesitate shamelessly stripped of San Juan Bosco (female school or neighborhood) and to aspire to the title honors, being marihuanerito.

Alternatively, to qualify for the designation was to be piropero duck and womanizer, and dulzarrón love with women, which in other neighborhoods known as "dog" or "vulture" .- "Beware of that scoundrel, my dear, that this hummingbird guy is very duck "- warned in-law when a native Juan made him the court (or" I missed the dogs ", as we said) his daughter. The latter was the least used sense. The ultimate dream of all duck to be as such was little or no work, if possible, keep tickets in your pocket without much sacrifice, never miss the little drink, cigarettes and Baret, do not miss any program, trip patch, treat or furrusca, but never stoop so low to the fee and make every effort to get yourself a young, beautiful and potion, hopefully well-paid professional who is not jealous or Jodon, that if either responsible worker for each counter you pass the check and administer according to their sense of things. As is sometimes not easy to get around, duck easily traded for a less young, less pretty, often with a few tons more, but yes, you have house, car and work.

To love her, flatter and cloying it is responsible, under its ancient tricks.

Definitely the block and neighborhood were not the same without the ducks. They were a necessary evil, an essential ingredient for everyday enjoyment and the enjoyment of everyday life in the distant times when we were a little younger, more irreverent gozona and, finally, a little (a lot!) Happier.

CODA. (Some neighborhood Fauna notes)

In addition to the Ducks, the neighborhood was a hotbed of wildlife pelts of all, a motley combination of all kinds of bugs that swarmed and reproduced by spontaneous generation. Obviously we can not pass by without mentioning the other series of avechuchos flight that always surrounds us. Educational effects, start your list split by gender, starting of course for the ladies:

Bitches. They were publicly rejected, but they had great acceptance in secret. The dream of every Gallinazo or even the whole duck was romping with a dog, and bask in her sweet honey of frantic sex without emotional commitment, not necessarily with economic interests, as did with the Fox or the Wolf. (Much less with the Grid). The bitch was generous with her body simply enjoy it, usually accompanied rumba and liquor. Ardent nature is spoken of as if they were fornicating seizures or convulsions. "I gave Miandad?, Said the prudish, or one would say, sit down, and slept. They were mad cow who loved to feel and experience, changing partners without any hindrance and sometimes earning repel, claims or tufts for its well-earned reputation for frivolous without limit.

The Fox. Fledgling character also was less "horny? the dog, but more interested, always watching to take advantage or exploit the "pipiloco? on duty that fell into their networks. If the men wanted Perruncha pleasure, or because it is not able to contain the Zorrilla do you get to see. If there is generosity in the way, has no problem in distributing their prey and attributes as does the former but not the pursuit of enjoyment, or her nymphomania. Only interested in its use and that's a little Lizard. The better the offer, without any problem changing bidder and get another lover to squeeze. It is usually an older man and married. The ladies are known as the Fufurufas or Fufas.

La Loba may be a little bitch, a little bitch, but is characterized by what is most interested in riding in packs with other wolves, or seeking the pleasures of the flesh or of the benefits of money or cars or all the above. Generally speaking the cries, in a shrill, trying to draw attention to the door of a luxury car with the door open and the stereo volume turned on to extravagant. The vanity is his letter, although not always willing to give. It was usually seen accompanying the Lobos, but have been displaced by the Grid dangerously, that are in serious danger of extinction.

The Grids are more relevant than ever, have taken a bit of all the features of its predecessors most veteran and suddenly a little outdated for today. The most striking thing about them is the dress, obsesivante adhered to the prevailing fashion designs. Daily brushing hair, dyed blond (with striking black roots), or red streaks, or "highlights? discoloration. Silicone tits always ready to explode, or size, or the enhancement of the strength of a smaller size in a camisetita impossible. Transparent bra, navel the air, descaderados pants, tan on camera, cell phone belt colors, not always on. Swarm in droves through the Zona Rosa of the cities, where bullfights are a must in traquetos rides with friends or emergent. They do not lack the white hat. When they hand in liquor will become unbearably intense, and need to be the center of attraction or arm but the tantrum.

Hens are generally doomed to be spinsters, but not because of caste but ugly. Full of mud on the face, usually wear glasses for myopia early, have orthodontic treatment to incorrigibly wayward teeth, suffer from bad breath. A lack of calls from a suitor in the making, smoke throw their phones each that between them spend the entire afternoon throwing rattle through the speakers. They guilds to stay together and do homework, play sports or go to take something while having fun with grids are his friends in power. When invited to dances, warm couch all night, or dance or play including trencito where they try to engage if they are dancing with their partners. One recognizes not only for its physical obviousness, but the cry that their sharp and powerful languages ​​are generated when half of the twitters that both encouraged.

Besides the above, there are others that also serve to define the female animals. Sardines are generally teenagers, known as pelaítas, usually under 18 years. They are the delight of the old green and college exhibitionists. When the contact to manage brothels in school uniforms are a sensation. Also known as Cocks. If you are nice and harmonious body, they are told bagrecito and diminutive, affectionate and admiring nickname, very different from the catfish or iguanas and crocodiles, which are believed to be Sardinas pretty ugly, with a grotesque contrast, unlike Chickens, they carry with true dignity and well aware of its limitations, the burden of your curse aesthetics. When a girl is of low social status, or is or is dressed as poor or sirvientoide looks like, is said to be a pinch, and frankly pejorative connotation. Hens are known as Pajarracos Viejon or parakeets.

As for men, the taxonomy also classifies neighborhood:

The Wolf, the supreme expression of social or pop promoted by the drug trade has its own chapter in the section of Carangas pages later.

The Fox. Normally this term defines astute business that has no scruples or moral impediments to try to throw advantage at the time of any transaction with the neighbor. It is extremely common in our streets, sponsored by the concept of Paisa ancestral awake and sharp, that leaves a missed opportunity and that partly explains the peak of the drug in our country, as at home with the consent of parents and siblings . Remember that "If you can get money honestly do son, and if not, get money son?.

The local Gallinazo is a species of duck, with unhealthy obsession to conquer women, almost collecting adventures, to bluff and then awaken the envy of your fellow members, usually a bunch of Ducks cornerback. Usually you have a notebook where noted names and phone numbers of your chickens. When fetish, steals her underwear as a trophy up to their buddies. When is attractive or effective in their work reaches the status of Hawk, usually hanging around pretty girls new to the neighborhood, or local hard for Vultures (Whose favorite prey are girls bitches or service that when they say Chucha Perrunchas churns) as teachers, secretaries and doctors.

The Gouache or billets, are those beings that life denied any hint of class, distinction or style. They are generally poor and poorly educated, and make no effort to hide it. Physical exercise and crafts materials, when they do eat or drink until the last consequences, their compliments with a pretty girl or are fearful and terrifying decent and would blush to a driver. When they fight with someone, do it in the street and are not happy but gave him a knife holster his opponent, or you leave the face with the mouth of a creek. Some, the more history, survivors of multiple stab wounds and surgical ex-offenders when they are partying heavily sucking, grinding or spiteful parrandera music, and caring for a cheap meat stew and street pacotilluda, reaching the rank of Macaques, which then progresses as you drive the fry and drink to make mutation in Pigs, respectful attitude implying that in the next few minutes is best to vacate the block to prevent a tragedy.

The Mule has no specific gender, although the name is more common in men. The main one is in your body that carries luggage or any amount of drugs to transport them elsewhere. In the chapter on Carangas we refer to them. Also when someone is very gross, tare, covered and sealed inside, is said to be a mule, just when it is very sudden and violent to play football or team sports.

The Lizards are sycophants and Lambon professionals, experts in the art of rubbing sack, throw brush, sneak in all kinds of events pretending to be important or acquaintances of the owner, are specialists in saber throw, to ask for favors in return for nothing, the cloying vanity of the host to get something in return. Wolves usually surround to the side of the Ducks, but without grace or acceptance thereof. They are more common in the upper strata and in the lofty spheres of society, their habitat is the cocktail, although many of them are out of our middle-class neighborhoods, where they make a rapid course of slugs and leeches and begin to look us over the shoulders.

The Toad is essential and must be present in any human gathering of more than three people. Do not keep your hands off (since it is a biological necessity) to count, to wear and bring, throw, to give away, and not doing it for attention, because his style is creeping hypocrite and servile. It occurs in all strata and all trades. Sometimes Lagartos shares the stigmas, and when he has something Lobo, can be scary and dangerous. It has been recognized toddler, and from schools is stimulated by priests and teachers.

When you owe someone money, is said to have Culebras, and they are very abundant in the neighborhoods. It is also used when someone is offended by one or think one did something, whether true or not. Toads and snakes tend to have many Lobos behind, and sometimes have to walk at all times with antivenom.

Another common character of the neighborhood is the Bastard, also known as Horny, this is the time to make clear between them and the Breakers, as the use and abuse of the terms have contributed to the confusion and indiscriminate use of such nicknames Horny.

It is true that both are bulls, wearing on his forehead a few bumps that sometimes prevent them through the door of his house and depending on the state of calcification of the victim can reach size, shape and branching, as a single deer or bombastic elk, but they are different.

The Horned, has a solid extensions that come, rather than their willingness, attitude and generosity of his wife to the neighbor. It has a high prevalence in men and its name is almost exclusively male, even when it should be. Traditional folklore has developed several formulas, but to fight them, to disguise itself as the "topizol" and "cornitina" or "descurnol" (the latter not the grave, but it gives a shine!). They are the great chagrin of many, rightly or wrongly jealous husbands. The Breaker by contrast, has a more benign connotation, and if you want more accepted by a society that sometimes sin by pimp. The subject of our social animals is characterized by richly assumes extramarital romances and tries at all costs, and cost, to get the congratulations of the wooed with gifts, compliments, invitations, which sometimes sacrifices the economic stability of the home. As inferred from the foregoing, any acts of implicit potential cachonería have antlers.
