rolling cow

Rolling Cow and Whooping Bwoy seem the most common duppies ah yard. Rolling Cow tales vary as you say, but sometimes it's a cow with no legs rolling n' mooing, although the sound can also be attributed to Whooping Bwoy. To avoid duppies, the info I learnt was to carry 3 pebbles, and if followed by a duppy, drop them loudly on ground, dem seh 'duppy cyaan count to 3', so the duppy that did ah follow unoo, stop and start count up the pebbles, 1,2, then him confuse n haffi start again, over n' over him go so.. so man can getaway so.

Bruk Pocket Jamaican

"Recently, this Jamaican won the 10 million special lottery for a dollar. As soon as the office of the Lottery Corporation was open on the following day, he was there to collect his winnings.

Graciously, he presented his winning ticket to the clerk and in his best English uttered his request "Me cum fi collect the 10 millian dallars, si me ticket ya".

After reviewing and checking the ticket with his manager, the clerk returned and requested on how he would like his payments. The Jamaican replied "Mi wan all a de moni now". "Unfortunately, Sir" the nervous clerk responded, "The procedures are that we can only give you one million now and the balance equally over the next 20 years".

Furious and agitated, the Jamaican asked for the manager, who re-iterated "Sir, my assistant is correct, it is the regulation of the corporation that we initially pay you one million dollars now with the balance paid to you equally over the next 20 years".

Outraged, the Jamaican slammed his hand on the desk and shouted in anger, "Oonu tek me fi idiat, me wan all a de moni now or oonu gi me bak me rass dallar!!"
