So.....I have quite a serious and direct question: Why, when I walk on Bay Street during a weekday, do Bahamians stop and ask me this jokey question: Boy you playin tourist ayye?? Watchu doin downtown? Huhh??? Seriously??? Playin Tourist because I am in my city center?? This sounds simple and cute and seems like it is supposed to be funny...but....my brain starts spinning...The place where this comment comes from is actually not funny at all. Lets put this in perspective. When Americans walk through their cities, other Americans do not ask them if they are Playin Tourist!! Same for Europeans. Why do Bahamians ask this semi-rhetorical question of each other? (Hint: Inferiority Complex). Wake Up Bahamas. Free ya mind. Dis aint ya Grannies Bahamas no more!
